From the supplier: The notion of an earmarked fund is given six variant definitions in order to reduce the rising waste in federal spending for research. An appropriation for a project or facility is defined to be earmarked if it is directly funded by Congress, if it is an unauthorized fund initiated by Congress, or if external peer or merit review is absent. However, an appropriation is deemed valid if it is for a subcontracted project, if it is directly part of the Department of Agriculture appropriations bill, or if it is congressionally authorized for regional consortia and does not use the NIH and NSF budgets.
