Federal Grant and Cooperative Agreement Act (1977)
The Federal Grant and Cooperative Agreement Act set out to guide government agencies in their use of Federal funds – particularly by distinguishing between contracts, cooperative agreements and grants.
Contracts, the law states, are awarded when a Federal agency is acquiring something – a service, for example. Both grants and cooperative agreements are awarded when a Federal agency is providing assistance – the latter occurring when substantial involvement by the agency is anticipated.
