This example is less successful because it:
- Includes a budget line item for promotional items (line item 1, $6,600). This cost is not eligible for National Scenic Byways Program (NSBP) funding because it is not consistent with the cost principles identified in the Office of Management and Budget Guidance for Grants and Agreements.
