Is there a percentage guide for indirect rate per DEQ?
No, the percentage is usually determined by the applicant based on their overhead expenses that would be incurred during the project. Indirect (overhead) is a percent of the costs to operate the office including rent, utilities, telephone, etc., and includes costs to administer the contract. If it is not an added expense of the project, you do not need to include it in the budget request, or you can also identify it as match if it is a cost that your organization will cover outside of the grant request.
