6. Budget (Not Scored)
Is the itemized budget for conducting
the project, along with justification,
reasonable and consistent with stated
objectives, the five-year strategy and
goals of the President’s Emergency Plan
and Emergency Plan, and planned
program activities?
V.2. Review and Selection Process
The HHS/CDC Procurement and
Grants Office (PGO) staff will review
applications for completeness, and HHS
Global AIDS program will review them
for responsiveness. Incomplete
applications and applications that are
non-responsive to the eligibility criteria
will not advance through the review
process. Applicants will receive
notification that their application did
not meet submission requirements.
An objective review panel will
evaluate complete and responsive
applications according to the criteria
listed in the ‘‘V.1. Criteria’’ section
above. All persons who serve on the
panel will be external to the U.S.
Government Country Program Office.
The panel may include both Federal and
non-Federal participants.
In addition, the following factors
could affect the funding decision:
While U.S.-based organizations are
eligible to apply, we will give
preference to existing national/
Tanzanian organizations. It is possible
for one organization to apply as lead
grantee with a plan that includes
partnering with other organizations,
preferably local. Although matching
funds are not required, preference will
be go to organizations that can leverage
additional funds to contribute to
program goals.
Applications will be funded in order
by score and rank determined by the
review panel. HHS/CDC will provide
justification for any decision to fund out
of rank order.
In addition, the following factors may
affect the funding decision:
• Maintaining geographic diversity

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Purpose and Background
The fee schedule for sanitation
inspections of passenger cruise ships
inspected under the Vessel Sanitation
Program (VSP) was first published in
the Federal Register on November 24,
1987 (52 FR 45019), and CDC began
collecting fees on March 1, 1988. Since
then, CDC has published the fee
schedule annually. This notice
announces fees effective October 1,
The average cost per inspection is
multiplied by a size/cost factor to
determine the fee for vessels in each
size category. The size/cost factor was
established in the proposed fee schedule
published in the Federal Register on
July 17, 1987 (52 FR 27060), and revised
in a schedule published in the Federal
Register on November 28, 1989 (54 FR
48942). The revised size/cost factor is
presented in Appendix A.
Fees
The fee schedule (Appendix A) will
be effective October 1, 2005, through
September 30, 2006. The fee schedule,
which became effective October 1, 2001,
will remain the same in Fiscal year
2006. If travel expenses continue to
increase, the fees may be adjusted before
September 30, 2006, since travel
constitutes a sizable portion of VSP’s
costs. If an adjustment is necessary, a
notice will be published in the Federal
Register 30 days before the effective
date.
Applicability
The fees will apply to all passenger
cruise vessels for which inspections are
conducted as part of CDC’s VSP.
