(a) Publications. FAS and the Federal Government shall enjoy a royalty-free, nonexclusive, and irrevocable right to reproduce, publish or otherwise use, and to authorize others to use, any materials developed in conjunction with a cost-reimbursable agreement or contract under such an agreement. (1) Cooperators shall acknowledge FAS support in any publications written or published with Federal support and, if feasible, on any publication reporting the results of, or describing, a Federally supported activity as follows: ‘‘This material is based upon work supported by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Foreign Agricultural Service under Agreement No. (Cooperator should enter the applicable agreement number here).’’ (2) All such material must also contain the following disclaimer unless the publication is formally cleared by the awarding agency: ‘‘Any opinions, findings, conclusion, or recommendations expressed in this publication are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the view of the U.S. Department of Agriculture.’’ (3) Any public or technical information related to work carried out under a cost-reimbursable agreement shall be submitted by the developing party to the other for advice and comment. Information released to the public shall describe the contributions of both parties to the work effort. In the event of a dispute, a separate publication may be made with effective statements of acknowledgment and disclaimer. (4) The cooperator, or its designees, is not authorized to develop and publish documents that could be sold and distributed for profit. (b) Media. Cooperators shall acknowledge FAS support, as indicated in § 1552.34(a) above, in any form of media (print, DVD, audio production, web, etc.) produced with Federal support that has a direct production cost to the cooperator of over $5,000. Unless the terms of the Federal award provide otherwise, this requirement does not apply to media produced as research instruments or for documenting experimentation or findings and intended for presentation or distribution to a USDA/FAS audience. (c) Audiovisual. FAS must determine ownership of the audiovisual production based on the parties’ contributions to the production. Where FAS and/or other Federal agencies contribute at least 50 percent of the total costs, including in-kind contributions, to develop an audiovisual production, it is owned by the FAS. (1) If FAS determines that it has ownership, then FAS must obtain the audiovisual using the Office of Management and Budget Governmentwide audiovisual contracting procedures. (2) If FAS determines that the cooperator has ownership, then the recipient is not subject to USDA approvals and the Governmentwide audiovisual contracting procedures. (3) FAS must obtain a copy of the cooperator's audiovisual production and retain the right to duplicate the video for Government purposes. FAS must use Government procurement procedures to duplicate the video for FAS purposes. (d) Printing. Title 7, United States Code, section 3319a does not preclude the applicability of Government Printing Office regulations when Federal dollars are used for printing though printing is accomplished by the cooperator or its subcontractor. (e) Miscellaneous. (1) Publication and Media Releases Requirement. The cooperator must provide the GMO and Project Manager with one copy of all published works developed under the agreement and with lists of other written work produced under the cost-reimbursable agreement. (2) Nondiscrimination Statement – Printed, Electronic, or Audiovisual Material Requirement. The cooperator shall include the following statement, in full, in any printed, audiovisual material, or electronic media for public distribution developed or printed with any Federal funding: “In accordance with Federal law and U.S. Department of Agriculture policy, this institution is prohibited from discriminating on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, age, or disability. (Not all prohibited bases apply to all programs. To file a complaint of discrimination, write USDA, Director, Office of Civil Rights, Room 326-W, Whitten Building, 1400 Independence Avenue, SW, Washington, DC 20250-9410 or call (202) 720-5964 (voice and TDD). USDA is an equal opportunity provider and employer.”) If the material is too small to permit the full statement to be included, the material must, at minimum, include the following statement, in print size no smaller than the text: "This institution is an equal opportunity provider." [CR Instructions] Applies to all CRs when publication of any printed, audiovisual, or electronic material is contemplated. [Provision Title]
