# §86.100. Can I change the information in a grant application after I receive a grant?

- (a) To change information in a grant application after you receive a grant, you must propose a revision of the grant and we must approve it.
- (b) We may approve a revision if:
  - (1) **For BIG Tier 1—** State and BIG Tier 2—National awards, the revision:
    - (i) Would not significantly decrease the benefits of the project; and
    - (ii) **Would not increase Federal funds.**
  - (2) **For BIG Tier 2—** National awards, the revision:
    - (i) Involves process, materials, logistics, or other items that have no significant effect on the factors used to decide the score; and
    - (ii) **Keeps an equal or greater percentage of the non-Federal matching share of the total BIG project costs.**
- (c) We may approve a decrease in the Federal funds requested in the application subject to [paragraph (b)](#b) of this section.
- (d) The Regional WSFR Office must follow its own procedures for review and approval of any changes to a BIG Tier 1—State grant.
- (e) The Regional WSFR Office must receive approval from the WSFR Headquarters Office for any changes to a BIG Tier 2—National grant that involves cost or affects project benefits.
