%[[Project costs should include undergraduate student stipends -- note here that these are long-term research experiences and stipends may reflect this --, and may include laboratory use fees, housing (if appropriate during the summer months) and travel for student participants. Enter those amounts on the appropriate participant support category on Line F on the proposal budget. Tuition and other fees are not permitted. The budget may also include items such as faculty salaries, salaries for graduate students or post-doctoral scholars to the extent that they serve as auxiliary mentors for the undergraduates, support for coordination activities, and equipment and other direct costs (e.g., materials, publication costs). Funds should also be budgeted for travel to an annual awardees meeting. As a guide to budget development, participant support costs (Line F) should be at least 50\% of the total budget request, and faculty salaries should be limited to 2 weeks annual support except for the lead investigator, who may request 1 month each year.]]

\item[B] OTHER PERSONNEL:
\begin{enumerate}\setlength{\itemsep}{-0.5ex}
\item  The PI is requesting six quarters per year
of graduate student support at \$\textbf{2,124}/month 
salary per student with an increase of 4\% each year.
\end{enumerate}

\item[C] FRINGE BENEFITS:  
\begin{enumerate}\setlength{\itemsep}{-0.5ex}
\item Fringe benefits for the PI's salary 
will be 23.8\% each year.  
 \item Fringe benefits for graduate
 students will be 13.4\% each year.
 \end{enumerate}
 
\item[D] EQUIPMENT:

\item[E] TRAVEL:
\begin{enumerate}\setlength{\itemsep}{-0.5ex}
\item \textbf{Awardees Meeting:} Travel for all students
to annual awardees meeting:   \$\textbf{1,000}/each for 8 students.

\item \textbf{Conferences:} Travel for each student
to one conference during the year:   \$\textbf{1,000}/each for 8 students.

\item \textbf{Visitors:}  Support for faculty mentor visitors
who will work on SAGE and 
mentoring undergraduates: \$\textbf{4,000}/each for 4 
month-long  visitor per year.  (\$500 travel, \$500 food,
30 $\times$ \$100/day for hotel).

\end{enumerate}

\item[F] OTHER DIRECT COSTS:
\begin{enumerate}\setlength{\itemsep}{-0.5ex}
\item \textbf{Student Stipends:}
The PI is requesting stipends for
8 undergraduate participants at a rate 
of \$\textbf{6,625}/year.
This is \$\textbf{53,000}/year plus a  4\% increase each year.
%This is $12 \times 15 \times 4 \times 9 \times 8 = 51840$. 

\item  \textbf{Material and Supplies:}
\begin{itemize}\setlength{\itemsep}{-0.5ex}
\item Money for {\bf software} and {\bf books} that will be needed
by students for their projects.  \$\textbf{3600}/year. 
12 people (8 students, the PI, and 3 graduate students) at
\$300/each. %

\item \textbf{Portable computers:} \$\textbf{13200}/year for
11 laptops that will be 
used by the students  to create a portable lab environment,
for interactive presentations of project results, for workshop
``coding sprints'', and
for development  of software and databases.  The
computers are \$\textbf{1200}/each, and 
would revert to the SAGE project.
\end{itemize}

\end{enumerate}

\item[G] INDIRECT COSTS: 
Facilities and Administrative costs will be reimbursed at less than the University of Washington's current Indirect Cost Rate negotiated with DHHS on 7/15/05.  An administrative allowance, limited 
to 25\% of the

{\tt http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2006/nsf06559/nsf06559.pdf/}.
