Helpful Tips:   

  • What do I name files added to Field 12 that address questions 1 – 6? 

If you checked “Yes” to field 6 and your project involves activities outside of the US or partnerships with international collaborators, when uploading your explanation to field 12 please name the document “Foreign Justification.”  However, if you also had additional documents to provide for fields 1-5, please include ALL documents in one file titled “projinfo.pdf.” Be sure to include headings/titles within your document, for instance “Environmental Impacts,” “Foreign Justification,” to clearly identify what additional information you are providing.
