Beginning April 1, 2022, the new rate may be applied when calculating the value of volunteer labor for the purposes of matching funding.

NEW UNIQUE ENTITY ID REQUIRED – 

By April 4, 2022, the federal government will transition away from the use of the DUNS Number and toward the new Unique Entity ID (SAM) as the primary means of entity identification for federal awards. If you are registered in SAM.gov you’ve already been assigned a new Unique Entity ID! It’s viewable in your SAM.gov entity registration record. Go to fsd.gov and select the green Help on UEI Transition button to learn more.
