GENERAL CONDITIONS AND REQUIREMENTS
The EMS County grant general conditions and requirements are an integral part of the county

requirements shall always be controlling:

USE OF COUNTY GRANT FUNDS:
All state EMS grant funds shall be used between the beginning and ending dates of the grant
solely for activities as outlined in the Notice of Grant Award letter, its attachments if any, and
the application including its budget with its revisions, if any, on file in the state EMS office.
The grantee is not restricted to staying within the line item amounts within the approved grant
budget. However, the grantee must adhere to the approved total grant budget. Any
expenditures beyond this budget are the full responsibility of the grantee.

part and purchased that equipment to provide services for a municipality, county or other
public agency ceasing operation within five years of the ending date of a grant awarded to the

a rate contract based on a set state or area-wide fixed rate for service, and of which less that

General of the United States. Such audits shall cover the entire organization for the
organization's fiscal year. The scope of the audit performed shall cover the financial

including any rules, regulations, or statutes referenced in the grant. The financial statements

questioned costs and liabilities due to the department shall be fully disclosed in the audit
report with reference to the department grant involved. If the grantee receives funds from a
grants and aids appropriation, the provider shall have an audit, or submit an attestation
statement, in accordance with Section 215.97, F. S. The audit report shall include a schedule
of financial assistance, which discloses each state grant by number and indicates which grants
are funded from state grants and aids appropriations. The grantee has "received"funds when
it has obtained cash from the department or when it has incurred reimbursable expenses.
