As you may be aware, the Department of Energy sent a notification to campuses last week indicating that indirect costs for grants and contracts funded by the agency would be reduced to 15% for current and future proposals. Multiple universities and organizations, including the APLU, of which we are a member, sued the DOE over this change. Today, a restraining order was issued by a US district court, temporarily preventing the agency from modifying the negotiated indirect cost rates of universities.
