RE: Delegation of Authority - Solicit and Accept or Execute Any Grants or Contracts Containing the NASA Waiver of Subrogation Rights

The authority to solicit and accept or execute any grants or contracts containing the NASA Waiver of Subrogation Rights (Clause Number 1852.228-75(d)), was delegated to Chancellors by Presidential Delegation of Authority DA 2107, February 24, 1999.

I am redelegating that authority to the Vice Chancellor–Research, the Associate Vice Chancellor–Research Administration, the Executive Director–Sponsored Projects Administration, the Associate Director–Sponsored Projects Administration, Supervising Principal Contract and Grant Officers, Senior Contract and Grant Officers, and Contract and Grant Officers.

You must attempt to reduce the University's potential risk for subcontractors' liability by negotiating appropriate contractual relationships and asking the subcontractors to (1) indemnify The Regents and the United States government against such liability, and (2) name The Regents and the United States government as additional insureds on their insurance policies.

This authority may not be further redelegated and supersedes IDA402, dated April 6, 2005 on the same subject.

Signed copy

Howard Gillman
Chancellor
