Overlap Sample Statements:
- There is commitment overlap for Dr. XYZ between 5R01AG123456-01 and the application under consideration. If this application is funded Dr. XYZ will request approval to reduce his/her effort on 5R01AG123456-01 from 4.80 calendar months to 2.40 calendar months. If other pending applications are funded, Dr. XYZ will reduce his/her effort appropriately.
