Is the Primary Contact considered to be the person who actually signs the grant applications?

This would be the person with signature authority - The Project Administrator listed on the Statement of Grant Award (SOGA) has signatory authority on the grant.  The primary contact can be the Project Administrator or a designee.  To delegate authority to someone other than the Project Administrator, please send a letter with the application grant numbers(s) to grantsmgmt@dcjs.virginia.gov and copy your grant monitor.
