Funding Available to Support Internships on Ag Research Stations- Due December 19th
Five internships will be awarded for year 2012, each with $5000 of student labor (approximately 15 weeks, limited to UW-Madison undergraduate students) and $500 of supplies to be spent at the station on the student project. Last year, projects were awarded at Arlington, US Dairy Forage/Prairie du Sac, and West Madison.
Funding is intended to support a student full-time for the summer with about half of the time spent on an individual research project in conjunction with a CALS faculty member and about half-time spent on a variety of station activities under the direction of the superintendent. Some stations may be able to provide housing options. Credits for internship experience may be possible by separate arrangements with the student’s on campus advisor. As part of the student work with the superintendents, a poster presentation should be assembled that can become part of the station’s permanent displays.
Applications for summer 2012 should be sent to Angie Seitler, 212C Agricultural Hall, on this internship form. Criteria will include the integration of the project description and plans for station activities. If a student is already identified, please include their name. Applications will be accepted until December 19,2011 with announcements made by early January.
Formula Funds (142) Capital Exercise Due January 6th
The Research Division is conducting a Hatch and McIntire-Stennis capital exercise to fund requests for major equipment used to support these research programs. Please submit your FY 2011-2012 Hatch/McIntire-Stennis Capital Priority List as an email attachment to Angie Seitler, aseitler@cals.wisc.edu, no later than Friday, January 6, 2012. You will be notified by Friday, January 20, 2012, regarding the items that have been approved for purchase. Requisitions for funded items will be due by Friday, February 17, 2012 (if requisitions are not received by this deadline, funding may not be available).
Prepare your department's capital priority list considering the following:
1. Use the attached form to list equipment requests, current prices, faculty users, and their Hatch or McIntire-Stennis project numbers. All equipment listed must be prioritized.
(The FY 2011-2012 Hatch/McIntire-Stennis Capital Priority List form can also be downloaded from our website at: http://www.cals.wisc.edu/waes/capital/proposals.html
2. The requested equipment must directly benefit Hatch or McIntire-Stennis project research. Multiple-user equipment benefiting several investigators will receive priority consideration. For multiple-user equipment, identify faculty users who have Hatch or McIntire-Stennis projects and list sources of matching funds that are available to help fund the requests.
3. No office/administrative equipment can be purchased in this exercise. Requests for standard desktop and laptop computers will receive low priority. These requests must include a strong justification regarding the need and connection to the Hatch/McIntire-Stennis project. If a computer is approved, at least a 50% match will be required.
4. Equipment costing less than $5,000 will be considered even though these fall into the "Supplies and Expenses" category as defined by campus.
5. Projects terminating on 09/30/12 are not eligible for this exercise.
6. Projects beginning on 10/01/12 are not eligible for this exercise.
7. At least a 50% match from flexible funds is required.
8. Other 142 projects cannot be used as the 50% match.
Please feel free to contact Angie Seitler (261-1432) if you have questions.

New WAES Changes Beginning June 21st
Beginning June 21, 2010, the following changes will be implemented for the Formula Grant (Hatch, Hatch Multistate, McIntire-Stennis, and Animal Health) programs.
All receipts and requests for re-budgets should be sent as electronic attachments (i.e., PDF, jpeg) to:
waes@cals.wisc.edu
The subject line in your email should state the following for each of these requests:
Receipts:

Biochemistry Re-budget: PRJAB12
Biochemistry Multistate Travel: PRJAB12
Receipts
1) Provide electronic/scanned copies of invoices and receipts (i.e. Wal-Mart, Ace Hardware, Sentry Foods, etc) including date of service, amount, and project ID.
2) Briefly indicate how the item(s) will be used on the project.
3) If you are submitting shipping/postal receipts (i.e. USPS, UPS, FedEx, etc), a strong justification should be included.

1) Provide a copy of the receipt for lodging, fleet vehicle, airfare, etc. indicating date(s) of travel, purpose of travel (such as annual multistate meeting project number), traveler’s name, and amount.
Re-Budget Requests for Up to 2 Months of Research Assistant (RA) Salary
1) Provide a brief justification for the re-budget from RA salary.
2) Indicate amount and category (supply, travel, or student hourly/LTE) where you would like the RA salary re-budgeted. Please remember that the associated fringe for the RA salary will revert back to the WAES and cannot be re-budgeted to another category.
Re-Budget Requests for Supplies, Travel, and Student Hourly/LTE
1) We will no longer require re-budget requests when the re-budget will occur amongst the supply, travel, and student hourly/LTE categories.
2) It will be the PI and Department’s responsibility to review these budget categories on a regular basis to ensure that the overall expenditures have not exceeded the overall budget at the end of each fiscal year (September 30).
3) At the end of each fiscal year, the WAES office will review each project and re-budget as appropriate to balance each category. We will NOT add funds to the project to cover expenditures that exceeded the overall awarded budget
