    The NOAA Grants Management Division's Budget Narrative Guidance outlines requirements for applicants seeking federal funding. It necessitates a detailed budget narrative that justifies federal and non-federal expenditures by object class, ensuring clarity and consistency with all required forms, especially the SF-424 series. Applicants must demonstrate that costs are reasonable, allowable, and necessary per 2 CFR §200 guidelines. The guidance specifies the need to provide detailed information on personnel, fringe benefits, travel, equipment, supplies, contractual agreements, construction, and other related expenses. Each category requires specific justifications linking costs to program objectives, and appropriate documentation for any subawards or indirect costs must be included. The document also touches on cost-sharing and matching funds, emphasizing that these must follow the same detailed requirements as federal funds. This guidance serves to standardize budgeting practices and enhance accountability in federal grants, ensuring that all expenditures are thoroughly documented and directly related to the project outcomes.
