2013 GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN: Three Departments Reported Varying Degrees of Impacts on Operations, Grants, and Contracts

a) Clinical Research Protocols are research studies conducted by NIH staff. The protocol may test something for a specified condition or purpose (e.g., a drug or medical device) or may review previous studies or record the history of a disease or condition.. b) While HHS did not make the quarterly formula grant payments for Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), the underlying TANF statutes remained in place and states were permitted to use their unspent federal TANF funds from prior years for expenditures allowable under the TANF statute. The Continuing Appropriations Act, 2014, allowed for states to be reimbursed for expenses they incurred to keep grant programs operational. Pub. L. No. 113-46, § 116, 127 Stat. 558, 561-62 (Oct. 17, 2013). According to HHS, nearly $110 million in grants to the states to assist in refugee resettlement was delayed due to the lapse, causing some states to reduce or suspend services.

c) According to DOE officials, DOE was able to continue operating most of its activities and programs throughout the shutdown, because of funding flexibilities, and did not stop most of its activities or programs as originally outlined in its contingency plan. In addition, DOE officials stated that there was a concern that in the absence of federal oversight, had the lapse continued more than a few weeks, there would have been added risks engendered in operations involving hazardous materials and the possibility of errors, which in turn lead to risks to the facilities and the surrounding areas. DOE officials explained that although operations continued, there were impacts to operations as noted in their contingency plan.
