The semiannual progress reports must include the following for each program, function, or activity involved: (1) A comparison of actual accomplishments to the goal established for the period; (2) the reasons for failure, if established goals were not met; and (3) other pertinent information including, when appropriate, analysis and explanation of performance costs significantly higher than expected. The final progress report is required no later than 90 days after the end of the project period. All manuscripts published as a result of the work supported in part or whole by the cooperative agreement will be submitted with the progress reports. An annual Financial Status Report (FSR) is required no later than 90 days after the end of each budget period. An original and two copies of all reports should be submitted to the Grants Management Branch, CDC. The application should consist of the following:

2. Upon recipient’s request, perform selected laboratory tests as appropriate.
3. Participate in data management, the analysis of research data, and the interpretation and dissemination of research findings as appropriate.
4. Assist in the design of the evaluation, in particular, in the identification of outcome measures that will allow for later analysis of economic benefits.
5. Provide educational materials, including working with grantees to develop new materials that might be needed at multiple sites.
