    The NOAA Grants Management Division's Budget Narrative Guidance outlines requirements for applicants submitting budget narratives for federal grants. It emphasizes the necessity of detailing and justifying both federal and non-federal expenditures in accordance with specified forms for non-construction (SF-424A) and construction awards (SF-424C). Applicants must align their budget narratives with required forms, ensuring that costs are reasonable, allowable, and necessary complying with federal regulations. The document provides guidelines on key budget categories: personnel, fringe benefits, travel, equipment, supplies, contractual, construction, and other costs. Each section requires detailed justification, including calculations and specific descriptions relating expenses to project objectives. Guidelines also cover the treatment of indirect costs and the need for proper documentation and competitive procurement standards. Furthermore, it specifies requirements for non-federal cost-sharing and matching funds, asserting that they should mirror the detail required for federal contributions. This guidance reflects an overarching goal to promote transparency, accountability, and clear communication of budgets to ensure compliance with federal funding processes.
