Agenda 04/28/2020 Item #16A28 (FDEM Grant Agmt. - Pine Ridge Estates)04/28/2020
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to accept the Sub-Award and Grant Agreement H0469 with the Florida Division
of Emergency Management (FDEM) for funding in the amount of $112,500 under the Federal
Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Hazard Mitigation Grant Program for the design of the
Pine Ridge Estates Subdivision Drainage Improvements and authorize necessary budget
amendments.
OBJECTIVE: To accept the Sub-Award and Grant Agreement H0469 with the Florida Division of
Emergency Management (FDEM) for funding in the amount of $112,500 under the Federal Emergency
Management Agency Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) for the design of the Pine Ridge Estates
Subdivision Drainage Improvements and to authorize the necessary Budget amendments.
CONSIDERATIONS: The Hazard Mitigation Grant Program is provided through FEMA to help
implement hazard mitigation measures following a major disaster. Hazard mitigation measures are any
sustainable action taken to reduce or eliminate long-term risk to properties from future disasters. The
HMGP supports cost-effective post-disaster project.
On September 11, 2018, (Item 16.E.3) the Collier County Board of County Commissioners provided
after-the-fact approval for the submittal of several applications for Hazard Mitigatio n Grant Program
funding. Capital Project Planning, Impact Fees and Program Management submitted eight (8) grant
applications for funding including the Pine Ridge Estates Subdivision Drainage Improvements. An
application was approved for funding in the amount of $112,500 for phase 1, design and permitting, and
is attached for execution. The Pine Ridge Estates Subdivision Drainage Improvements project grant
application included phase II for construction once design and permitting are complete. Proposed
improvements will help alleviate flooding within the Pine Ridge Estates Subdivision.
FISCAL IMPACT: A budget amendment is required to appropriate funding, in the amount of $112,500
within Growth Management Grant Fund 711, Project 60126. This grant award requires a twenty-five
percent (25%) local match of $37,500 which will be met through a transfer from Stormwater Capital Fund
325, Project 60126 to Growth Management Grant Match Fund 712, Project 60126.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved for form and legality and requires a majority vote
for Board approval. JAB
RECOMMENDATION: To accept the sub-recipient agreement with the Florida Division of Emergency
Management and authorize the necessary budget amendments.

THIS AGREEMENT is entered into by the State of Florida, Division of Emergency Management,
with headquarters in Tallahassee, Florida (hereinafter referred to as the "Division"), and Collier County,
(hereinafter referred to as the "Sub-Recipient").
For the purposes of this Agreement, the Division serves as the pass-through entity for a Federal
award, and the Sub-Recipient serves as the recipient of a subaward.
THIS AGREEMENT IS ENTERED INTO BASED ON THE FOLLOWING REPRESENTATIONS:
A. The Sub-Recipient represents that it is fully qualified and eligible to receive these grant funds

THEREFORE, the Division and the Sub-Recipient agree to the following:
(1) APPLICATION OF STATE LAW TO THIS AGREEMENT
2 C.F.R. §200.302 provides: “Each state must expend and account for the Federal award
in accordance with state laws and procedures for expending and accounting for the state's own funds.”
Therefore, section 215.971, Florida Statutes, entitled “Agreements funded with federal or state

iii. A provision specifying the financial consequences that apply if the Sub-
Recipient fails to perform the minimum level of service required by the agreement.

(4) TERMS AND CONDITIONS
This Agreement contains all the terms and conditions agreed upon by the parties.
(5) EXECUTION
This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, any one of which may
be taken as an original.
(6) MODIFICATION
Either party may request modification of the provisions of this Agreement. Changes
which are agreed upon shall be valid only when in writing, signed by each of the parties, and attached to
the original of this Agreement.
(7) SCOPE OF WORK
The Sub-Recipient shall perform the work in accordance with the Budget and Scope of
Work, Attachment A of this Agreement.
(8) PERIOD OF AGREEMENT
This Agreement shall begin upon execution by both parties and shall end on April 30,
2021, unless terminated earlier in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph (17) of this Agreement.
Consistent with the definition of “period of performance” contained in 2 C.F.R. §200.77, the term “period
of agreement” refers to the time during which the Sub-Recipient “may incur new obligations to carry out
the work authorized under” this Agreement. In accordance with 2 C.F.R. §200.309, the Sub-Recipient
may receive reimbursement under this Agreement only for “allowable costs incurred during the period of
performance.” In accordance with section 215.971(1)(d), Florida Statutes, the Sub-Recipient may expend
funds authorized by this Agreement “only for allowable costs resulting from obligations incurred during”
the period of agreement.
(9) FUNDING
a. This is a cost-reimbursement Agreement, subject to the availability of funds.
b. The State of Florida's performance and obligation to pay under this Agreement is
contingent upon an annual appropriation by the Legislature, and subject to any modification in
accordance with either Chapter 216, Florida Statutes, or the Florida Constitution.
c. The Division will reimburse the Sub-Recipient only for allowable costs incurred by the
Sub-Recipient in the successful completion of each deliverable. The maximum reimbursement amount
for each deliverable is outlined in Attachment A of this Agreement (“Budget and Scope of Work”). The
maximum reimbursement amount for the entirety of this Agreement is $112,500.00.
d. As required by 2 C.F.R. §200.415(a), any request for payment under this Agreement
must include a certification, signed by an official who is authorized to legally bind the Sub-Recipient,
which reads as follows: “By signing this report, I certify to the best of my knowledge and belief that the
report is true, complete, and accurate, and the expenditures, disbursements and cash receipts are for the
purposes and objectives set forth in the terms and conditions of the Federal award. I am aware that any
16.A.28.a
Packet Pg. 757 Attachment: [Linked] Pine Ridge 4337-361-R Contract (11993 : Pine Ridge Estates Subdivision Drainage Improvements)
5
false, fictitious, or fraudulent information, or the omission of any material fact, may subject me to criminal,
civil or administrative penalties for fraud, false statements, false claims or otherwise. (U.S. Code Title 18,
Section 1001 and Title 31, Sections 3729-3730 and 3801-3812).”
e. The Division will review any request for reimbursement by comparing the
documentation provided by the Sub-Recipient against a performance measure, outlined in Attachment A,
that clearly delineates:
i. The required minimum acceptable level of service to be performed; and,
ii. The criteria for evaluating the successful completion of each deliverable.
f. The performance measure required by section 215.971(1)(b), Florida Statutes,
remains consistent with the requirement for a “performance goal”, which is defined in 2 C.F.R. §200.76 as
“a target level of performance expressed as a tangible, measurable objective, against which actual
achievement can be compared.” It also remains consistent with the requirement, contained in 2 C.F.R.
§200.301, that the Division and the Sub-Recipient “relate financial data to performance accomplishments
of the Federal award.”
g. If authorized by the Federal Awarding Agency, then the Division will reimburse the
Sub-Recipient for overtime expenses in accordance with 2 C.F.R. §200.430 (“Compensation—personal
services”) and 2 C.F.R. §200.431 (“Compensation—fringe benefits”). If the Sub-Recipient seeks
reimbursement for overtime expenses for periods when no work is performed due to vacation, holiday,
illness, failure of the employer to provide sufficient work, or other similar cause (see 29 U.S.C.
§207(e)(2)), then the Division will treat the expense as a fringe benefit. 2 C.F.R. §200.431(a) defines
fringe benefits as “allowances and services provided by employers to their employees as compensation in
addition to regular salaries and wages.” Fringe benefits are allowable under this Agreement as long as
the benefits are reasonable and are required by law, Sub-Recipient-employee agreement, or an
established policy of the Sub-Recipient. 2 C.F.R. §200.431(b) provides that the cost of fringe benefits in
the form of regular compensation paid to employees during periods of authorized absences from the job,
such as for annual leave, family-related leave, sick leave, holidays, court leave, military leave,
administrative leave, and other similar benefits, are allowable if all of the following criteria are met:
i. They are provided under established written leave policies;
ii. The costs are equitably allocated to all related activities, including Federal
awards; and,
iii. The accounting basis (cash or accrual) selected for costing each type of
leave is consistently followed by the non-Federal entity or specified grouping of employees.
h. If authorized by the Federal Awarding Agency, then the Division will reimburse the
Sub-Recipient for travel expenses in accordance with 2 C.F.R. §200.474. As required by the Reference
Guide for State Expenditures, reimbursement for travel must be in accordance with section 112.061,
Florida Statutes, which includes submission of the claim on the approved state travel voucher. If the Sub-
Recipient seeks reimbursement for travel costs that exceed the amounts stated in section 112.061(6)(b),
16.A.28.a
Packet Pg. 758 Attachment: [Linked] Pine Ridge 4337-361-R Contract (11993 : Pine Ridge Estates Subdivision Drainage Improvements)
6
Florida Statutes ($6 for breakfast, $11 for lunch, and $19 for dinner), then the Sub-Recipient must provide
documentation that:
i. The costs are reasonable and do not exceed charges normally allowed by
the Sub-Recipient in its regular operations as a result of the Sub-Recipient’s written travel policy; and,
ii. Participation of the individual in the travel is necessary to the Federal award.
i. The Division’s grant manager, as required by section 215.971(2)(c), Florida Statutes,
shall reconcile and verify all funds received against all funds expended during the grant agreement period
and produce a final reconciliation report. The final report must identify any funds paid in excess of the
expenditures incurred by the Sub-Recipient.
j. As defined by 2 C.F.R. §200.53, the term “improper payment” means or includes:
i. Any payment that should not have been made or that was made in an
incorrect amount (including overpayments and underpayments) under statutory, contractual,
administrative, or other legally applicable requirements; and,
ii. Any payment to an ineligible party, any payment for an ineligible good or
service, any duplicate payment, any payment for a good or service not received (except for such
payments where authorized by law), any payment that does not account for credit for applicable
discounts, and any payment where insufficient or lack of documentation prevents a reviewer from
discerning whether a payment was proper.
(10) RECORDS
a. As required by 2 C.F.R. §200.336, the Federal awarding agency, Inspectors General,
the Comptroller General of the United States, and the Division, or any of their authorized representatives,
shall enjoy the right of access to any documents, papers, or other records of the Sub-Recipient which are
pertinent to the Federal award, in order to make audits, examinations, excerpts, and transcripts. The right
of access also includes timely and reasonable access to the Sub-Recipient’s personnel for the purpose of
interview and discussion related to such documents. Finally, the right of access is not limited to the
required retention period but lasts as long as the records are retained.
b. As required by 2 C.F.R. §200.331(a)(5), the Division, the Chief Inspector General of
the State of Florida, the Florida Auditor General, or any of their authorized representatives, shall enjoy the
right of access to any documents, financial statements, papers, or other records of the Sub-Recipient
which are pertinent to this Agreement, in order to make audits, examinations, excerpts, and transcripts.
The right of access also includes timely and reasonable access to the Sub-Recipient’s personnel for the
purpose of interview and discussion related to such documents.
c. As required by Florida Department of State’s record retention requirements (Chapter
119, Florida Statutes) and by 2 C.F.R. §200.333, the Sub-Recipient shall retain sufficient records to show
its compliance with the terms of this Agreement, as well as the compliance of all subcontractors or
consultants paid from funds under this Agreement, for a period of five (5) years from the date of
16.A.28.a
Packet Pg. 759 Attachment: [Linked] Pine Ridge 4337-361-R Contract (11993 : Pine Ridge Estates Subdivision Drainage Improvements)
7
submission of the final expenditure report. The following are the only exceptions to the five (5) year
requirement:
i. If any litigation, claim, or audit is started before the expiration of the 5-year
period, then the records must be retained until all litigation, claims, or audit findings involving the records
have been resolved and final action taken.
ii. When the Division or the Sub-Recipient is notified in writing by the Federal
awarding agency, cognizant agency for audit, oversight agency for audit, cognizant agency for indirect
costs, or pass-through entity to extend the retention period.
iii. Records for real property and equipment acquired with Federal funds must
be retained for 5 years after final disposition.
iv. When records are transferred to or maintained by the Federal awarding
agency or pass-through entity, the 5-year retention requirement is not applicable to the Sub-Recipient.
v. Records for program income transactions after the period of performance. In
some cases recipients must report program income after the period of performance. Where there is such
a requirement, the retention period for the records pertaining to the earning of the program income starts
from the end of the non-Federal entity's fiscal year in which the program income is earned.
vi. Indirect cost rate proposals and cost allocations plans. This paragraph
applies to the following types of documents and their supporting records: indirect cost rate computations
or proposals, cost allocation plans, and any similar accounting computations of the rate at which a
particular group of costs is chargeable (such as computer usage chargeback rates or composite fringe
benefit rates).
d. In accordance with 2 C.F.R. §200.334, the Federal awarding agency must request
transfer of certain records to its custody from the Division or the Sub-Recipient when it determines that
the records possess long-term retention value.
e. In accordance with 2 C.F.R. §200.335, the Division must always provide or accept
paper versions of Agreement information to and from the Sub-Recipient upon request. If paper copies
are submitted, then the Division must not require more than an original and two copies. When original
records are electronic and cannot be altered, there is no need to create and retain paper copies. When
original records are paper, electronic versions may be substituted through the use of duplication or other
forms of electronic media provided that they are subject to periodic quality control reviews, provide
reasonable safeguards against alteration, and remain readable.
f. As required by 2 C.F.R. §200.303, the Sub-Recipient shall take reasonable measures
to safeguard protected personally identifiable information and other information the Federal awarding
agency or the Division designates as sensitive or the Sub-Recipient considers sensitive consistent with
applicable Federal, state, local, and tribal laws regarding privacy and obligations of confidentiality.
g. Florida's Government in the Sunshine Law (Section 286.011, Florida Statutes)
provides the citizens of Florida with a right of access to governmental proceedings and mandates three,
16.A.28.a
Packet Pg. 760 Attachment: [Linked] Pine Ridge 4337-361-R Contract (11993 : Pine Ridge Estates Subdivision Drainage Improvements)
8
basic requirements: (1) meetings of public boards or commissions must be open to the public; (2)
reasonable notice of such meetings must be given; and, (3) minutes of the meetings must be taken and
promptly recorded. The mere receipt of public funds by a private entity, standing alone, is insufficient to
bring that entity within the ambit of the open government requirements. However, the Government in the
Sunshine Law applies to private entities that provide services to governmental agencies and that act on
behalf of those agencies in the agencies' performance of their public duties. If a public agency delegates
the performance of its public purpose to a private entity, then, to the extent that private entity is
performing that public purpose, the Government in the Sunshine Law applies. For example, if a volunteer
fire department provides firefighting services to a governmental entity and uses facilities and equipment
purchased with public funds, then the Government in the Sunshine Law applies to board of directors for
that volunteer fire department. Thus, to the extent that the Government in the Sunshine Law applies to
the Sub-Recipient based upon the funds provided under this Agreement, the meetings of the Sub-
Recipient's governing board or the meetings of any subcommittee making recommendations to the
governing board may be subject to open government requirements. These meetings shall be publicly
noticed, open to the public, and the minutes of all the meetings shall be public records, available to the
public in accordance with Chapter 119, Florida Statutes.
h. Florida's Public Records Law provides a right of access to the records of the state
and local governments as well as to private entities acting on their behalf. Unless specifically exempted
from disclosure by the Legislature, all materials made or received by a governmental agency (or a private
entity acting on behalf of such an agency) in conjunction with official business which are used to
perpetuate, communicate, or formalize knowledge qualify as public records subject to public inspection.
The mere receipt of public funds by a private entity, standing alone, is insufficient to bring that entity
within the ambit of the public record requirements. However, when a public entity delegates a public
function to a private entity, the records generated by the private entity's performance of that duty become
public records. Thus, the nature and scope of the services provided by a private entity determine whether
that entity is acting on behalf of a public agency and is therefore subject to the requirements of Florida's
Public Records Law.
i. The Sub-Recipient shall maintain all records for the Sub-Recipient and for all
subcontractors or consultants to be paid from funds provided under this Agreement, including
documentation of all program costs, in a form sufficient to determine compliance with the requirements
and objectives of the Budget and Scope of Work - Attachment A - and all other applicable laws and
regulations.

(11) AUDITS
a. The Sub-Recipient shall comply with the audit requirements contained in 2 C.F.R.
Part 200, Subpart F.
b. In accounting for the receipt and expenditure of funds under this Agreement, the
Sub-Recipient shall follow Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). As defined by 2 C.F.R.
§200.49, GAAP “has the meaning specified in accounting standards issued by the Government
Accounting Standards Board (GASB) and the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB).”
c. When conducting an audit of the Sub-Recipient’s performance under this Agreement,
the Division shall use Generally Accepted Government Auditing Standards (“GAGAS”). As defined by 2
C.F.R. §200.50, GAGAS, “also known as the Yellow Book, means generally accepted government
auditing standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, which are applicable to
financial audits.”
d. If an audit shows that all or any portion of the funds disbursed were not spent in
accordance with the conditions of this Agreement, the Sub-Recipient shall be held liable for
reimbursement to the Division of all funds not spent in accordance with these applicable regulations and
Agreement provisions within thirty (30) days after the Division has notified the Sub-Recipient of such non-
compliance.
e. The Sub-Recipient shall have all audits completed by an independent auditor, which
is defined in section 215.97(2)(i), Florida Statutes, as “an independent certified public accountant licensed
under chapter 473.” The independent auditor shall state that the audit complied with the applicable
provisions noted above. The audit must be received by the Division no later than nine months from the

or rejection, and the basis for the contract price.”
c. As required by 2 C.F.R. §200.318(b), the Sub-Recipient shall “maintain oversight to
ensure that contractors perform in accordance with the terms, conditions, and specifications of their
contracts or purchase orders.” In order to demonstrate compliance with this requirement, the Sub-

performing work under this Agreement.
d. Except for procurements by micro-purchases pursuant to 2 C.F.R. §200.320(a) or
procurements by small purchase procedures pursuant to 2 C.F.R. §200.320(b), if the Sub-Recipient
chooses to subcontract any of the work required under this Agreement, then the Sub-Recipient shall
forward to the Division a copy of any solicitation (whether competitive or non-competitive) at least fifteen
(15) days prior to the publication or communication of the solicitation. The Division shall review the
solicitation and provide comments, if any, to the Sub-Recipient within three (3) business days. Consistent
with 2 C.F.R. §200.324, the Division will review the solicitation for compliance with the procurement
standards outlined in 2 C.F.R. §§200.318 through 200.326 as well as Appendix II to 2 C.F.R. Part 200.

16.A.28.a

14
Recipient. While the Sub-Recipient does not need the approval of the Division in order to publish a
competitive solicitation, this review may allow the Division to identify deficiencies in the vendor
requirements or in the commodity or service specifications. The Division’s review and comments shall not
constitute an approval of the solicitation. Regardless of the Division’s review, the Sub-Recipient remains
bound by all applicable laws, regulations, and agreement terms. If during its review the Division identifies
any deficiencies, then the Division shall communicate those deficiencies to the Sub-Recipient as quickly
as possible within the three (3) business day window outlined above. If the Sub-Recipient publishes a
competitive solicitation after receiving comments from the Division that the solicitation is deficient, then
the Division may:

paragraph (17) above; and,
ii. Refuse to reimburse the Sub-Recipient for any costs associated with that
solicitation.

compliance with the procurement standards outlined in 2 C.F.R. §§200.318 through 200.326 as well as
Appendix II to 2 C.F.R. Part 200. Consistent with 2 C.F.R. §200.318(k), the Division will not substitute its
judgment for that of the Sub-Recipient. While the Sub-Recipient does not need the approval of the
Division in order to execute a subcontract, this review may allow the Division to identify deficiencies in the
terms and conditions of the subcontract as well as deficiencies in the procurement process that led to the
subcontract. The Division’s review and comments shall not constitute an approval of the subcontract.
Regardless of the Division’s review, the Sub-Recipient remains bound by all applicable laws, regulations,
and agreement terms. If during its review the Division identifies any deficiencies, then the Division shall
communicate those deficiencies to the Sub-Recipient as quickly as possible within the three (3) business
day window outlined above. If the Sub-Recipient executes a subcontract after receiving a communication
from the Division that the subcontract is non-compliant, then the Division may:

paragraph (17) above; and,

subcontract.

orientation, gender identity, or national origin. The contractor will take
affirmative action to ensure that applicants are employed, and that
employees are treated during employment without regard to their race,
color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin.
Such action shall include, but not be limited to the following:
Employment, upgrading, demotion, or transfer; recruitment or recruitment
advertising; layoff or termination; rates of pay or other forms of

workers with which he has a collective bargaining agreement or other
contract or understanding, a notice to be provided advising the said labor
union or workers’ representatives of the contractor’s commitments under
this section, and shall post copies of the notice in conspicuous places
available to employees and applicants for employment.

by rules, regulations, or orders of the Secretary of Labor issued pursuant
to section 204 of Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, so that
such provisions will be binding upon each subcontractor or vendor. The
contractor will take such action with respect to any subcontract or
purchase order as the administering agency may direct as a means of
enforcing such provisions, including sanctions for noncompliance:
Provided, however, that in the event a contractor becomes involved in, or
is threatened with, litigation with a subcontractor or vendor as a result of
such direction by the administering agency the contractor may request

not and has not used Federal appropriated funds to pay any person or
organization for influencing or attempting to influence an officer or
employee of any agency, a member of Congress, officer or employee of
Congress, or an employee of a member of Congress in connection with

enterprises on solicitation lists;
ii. Assuring that small and minority businesses, and women's business
enterprises are solicited whenever they are potential sources;
iii. Dividing total requirements, when economically feasible, into smaller tasks or

encourage participation by small and minority businesses, and women's business enterprises;
v. Using the services and assistance, as appropriate, of such organizations as
the Small Business Administration and the Minority Business Development Agency of the Department of
Commerce; and
vi. Requiring the prime contractor, if subcontracts are to be let, to take the
affirmative steps listed in paragraphs i. through v. of this subparagraph.
b. The requirement outlined in subparagraph a. above, sometimes referred to as
“socioeconomic contracting,” does not impose an obligation to set aside either the solicitation or award of
16.A.28.a
Packet Pg. 778 Attachment: [Linked] Pine Ridge 4337-361-R Contract (11993 : Pine Ridge Estates Subdivision Drainage Improvements)
26
a contract to these types of firms. Rather, the requirement only imposes an obligation to carry out and
document the six affirmative steps identified above.
c. The “socioeconomic contracting” requirement outlines the affirmative steps that the
Sub-Recipient must take; the requirements do not preclude the Sub-Recipient from undertaking additional
steps to involve small and minority businesses and women's business enterprises.
d. The requirement to divide total requirements, when economically feasible, into
smaller tasks or quantities to permit maximum participation by small and minority businesses, and
women’s business enterprises, does not authorize the Sub-Recipient to break a single project down into
smaller components in order to circumvent the micro-purchase or small purchase thresholds so as to
utilize streamlined acquisition procedures (e.g. “project splitting”).

federal awards (federal assistance and expenditures) be made available to the public via a single,
searchable website, which is http://www.usaspending.gov/.
The FFATA Sub-award Reporting System (FSRS) is the reporting tool the Florida Division of Emergency
Management (“FDEM” or “Division”) must use to capture and report sub-award and executive
compensation data regarding first-tier sub-awards that obligate $25,000 or more in Federal funds
(excluding Recovery funds as defined in section 1512(a) (2) of the American Recovery and Reinvestment
Act of 2009, Pub. L. 111-5).
Note: This “Instructions and Worksheet” is meant to explain the requirements of the FFATA and give
clarity to the FFATA Form distributed to sub-awardees for completion. All pertinent information below
should be filled out, signed, and returned to the project manager.

which reads as follows: “By signing this report, I certify to the best of my knowledge and belief that the
report is true, complete, and accurate, and the expenditures, disbursements and cash receipts are for the
purposes and objectives set forth in the terms and conditions of the Federal award. I am aware that any
5
false, fictitious, or fraudulent information, or the omission of any material fact, may subject me to criminal,
civil or administrative penalties for fraud, false statements, false claims or otherwise. (U.S. Code Title 18,
Section 1001 and Title 31, Sections 3729-3730 and 3801-3812).”

documentation provided by the Sub-Recipient against a performance measure, outlined in Attachment A,
that clearly delineates:
i. The required minimum acceptable level of service to be performed; and,
ii. The criteria for evaluating the successful completion of each deliverable.
f. The performance measure required by section 215.971(1)(b), Florida Statutes,
remains consistent with the requirement for a “performance goal”, which is defined in 2 C.F.R. §200.76 as
“a target level of performance expressed as a tangible, measurable objective, against which actual
achievement can be compared.” It also remains consistent with the requirement, contained in 2 C.F.R.
§200.301, that the Division and the Sub-Recipient “relate financial data to performance accomplishments
of the Federal award.”
g. If authorized by the Federal Awarding Agency, then the Division will reimburse the
Sub-Recipient for overtime expenses in accordance with 2 C.F.R. §200.430 (“Compensation—personal
services”) and 2 C.F.R. §200.431 (“Compensation—fringe benefits”). If the Sub-Recipient seeks
reimbursement for overtime expenses for periods when no work is performed due to vacation, holiday,
illness, failure of the employer to provide sufficient work, or other similar cause (see 29 U.S.C.
§207(e)(2)), then the Division will treat the expense as a fringe benefit. 2 C.F.R. §200.431(a) defines
fringe benefits as “allowances and services provided by employers to their employees as compensation in
addition to regular salaries and wages.” Fringe benefits are allowable under this Agreement as long as
the benefits are reasonable and are required by law, Sub-Recipient-employee agreement, or an
established policy of the Sub-Recipient. 2 C.F.R. §200.431(b) provides that the cost of fringe benefits in
the form of regular compensation paid to employees during periods of authorized absences from the job,
such as for annual leave, family-related leave, sick leave, holidays, court leave, military leave,
administrative leave, and other similar benefits, are allowable if all of the following criteria are met:
i. They are provided under established written leave policies;
ii. The costs are equitably allocated to all related activities, including Federal
awards; and,
iii. The accounting basis (cash or accrual) selected for costing each type of
leave is consistently followed by the non-Federal entity or specified grouping of employees.
h. If authorized by the Federal Awarding Agency, then the Division will reimburse the
Sub-Recipient for travel expenses in accordance with 2 C.F.R. §200.474. As required by the Reference
Guide for State Expenditures, reimbursement for travel must be in accordance with section 112.061,
Florida Statutes, which includes submission of the claim on the approved state travel voucher. If the Sub-
Recipient seeks reimbursement for travel costs that exceed the amounts stated in section 112.061(6)(b),
6
Florida Statutes ($6 for breakfast, $11 for lunch, and $19 for dinner), then the Sub-Recipient must provide
documentation that:
i. The costs are reasonable and do not exceed charges normally allowed by
the Sub-Recipient in its regular operations as a result of the Sub-Recipient’s written travel policy; and,
ii. Participation of the individual in the travel is necessary to the Federal award.
i. The Division’s grant manager, as required by section 215.971(2)(c), Florida Statutes,
shall reconcile and verify all funds received against all funds expended during the grant agreement period
and produce a final reconciliation report. The final report must identify any funds paid in excess of the
expenditures incurred by the Sub-Recipient.
j. As defined by 2 C.F.R. §200.53, the term “improper payment” means or includes:
i. Any payment that should not have been made or that was made in an
incorrect amount (including overpayments and underpayments) under statutory, contractual,
administrative, or other legally applicable requirements; and,
ii. Any payment to an ineligible party, any payment for an ineligible good or
service, any duplicate payment, any payment for a good or service not received (except for such
payments where authorized by law), any payment that does not account for credit for applicable
discounts, and any payment where insufficient or lack of documentation prevents a reviewer from
discerning whether a payment was proper.
(10) RECORDS
a. As required by 2 C.F.R. §200.336, the Federal awarding agency, Inspectors General,
the Comptroller General of the United States, and the Division, or any of their authorized representatives,
shall enjoy the right of access to any documents, papers, or other records of the Sub-Recipient which are
pertinent to the Federal award, in order to make audits, examinations, excerpts, and transcripts. The right
of access also includes timely and reasonable access to the Sub-Recipient’s personnel for the purpose of
interview and discussion related to such documents. Finally, the right of access is not limited to the
required retention period but lasts as long as the records are retained.
b. As required by 2 C.F.R. §200.331(a)(5), the Division, the Chief Inspector General of
the State of Florida, the Florida Auditor General, or any of their authorized representatives, shall enjoy the
right of access to any documents, financial statements, papers, or other records of the Sub-Recipient
which are pertinent to this Agreement, in order to make audits, examinations, excerpts, and transcripts.
The right of access also includes timely and reasonable access to the Sub-Recipient’s personnel for the
purpose of interview and discussion related to such documents.
c. As required by Florida Department of State’s record retention requirements (Chapter
119, Florida Statutes) and by 2 C.F.R. §200.333, the Sub-Recipient shall retain sufficient records to show
its compliance with the terms of this Agreement, as well as the compliance of all subcontractors or
consultants paid from funds under this Agreement, for a period of five (5) years from the date of
7
submission of the final expenditure report. The following are the only exceptions to the five (5) year
requirement:
i. If any litigation, claim, or audit is started before the expiration of the 5-year
period, then the records must be retained until all litigation, claims, or audit findings involving the records
have been resolved and final action taken.
ii. When the Division or the Sub-Recipient is notified in writing by the Federal
awarding agency, cognizant agency for audit, oversight agency for audit, cognizant agency for indirect
costs, or pass-through entity to extend the retention period.
iii. Records for real property and equipment acquired with Federal funds must
be retained for 5 years after final disposition.
iv. When records are transferred to or maintained by the Federal awarding
agency or pass-through entity, the 5-year retention requirement is not applicable to the Sub-Recipient.
v. Records for program income transactions after the period of performance. In
some cases recipients must report program income after the period of performance. Where there is such
a requirement, the retention period for the records pertaining to the earning of the program income starts
from the end of the non-Federal entity's fiscal year in which the program income is earned.
vi. Indirect cost rate proposals and cost allocations plans. This paragraph
applies to the following types of documents and their supporting records: indirect cost rate computations
or proposals, cost allocation plans, and any similar accounting computations of the rate at which a
particular group of costs is chargeable (such as computer usage chargeback rates or composite fringe
benefit rates).
d. In accordance with 2 C.F.R. §200.334, the Federal awarding agency must request
transfer of certain records to its custody from the Division or the Sub-Recipient when it determines that
the records possess long-term retention value.
e. In accordance with 2 C.F.R. §200.335, the Division must always provide or accept
paper versions of Agreement information to and from the Sub-Recipient upon request. If paper copies
are submitted, then the Division must not require more than an original and two copies. When original
records are electronic and cannot be altered, there is no need to create and retain paper copies. When
original records are paper, electronic versions may be substituted through the use of duplication or other
forms of electronic media provided that they are subject to periodic quality control reviews, provide
reasonable safeguards against alteration, and remain readable.
f. As required by 2 C.F.R. §200.303, the Sub-Recipient shall take reasonable measures
to safeguard protected personally identifiable information and other information the Federal awarding
agency or the Division designates as sensitive or the Sub-Recipient considers sensitive consistent with
applicable Federal, state, local, and tribal laws regarding privacy and obligations of confidentiality.
g. Florida's Government in the Sunshine Law (Section 286.011, Florida Statutes)
provides the citizens of Florida with a right of access to governmental proceedings and mandates three,
8
basic requirements: (1) meetings of public boards or commissions must be open to the public; (2)
reasonable notice of such meetings must be given; and, (3) minutes of the meetings must be taken and
promptly recorded. The mere receipt of public funds by a private entity, standing alone, is insufficient to
bring that entity within the ambit of the open government requirements. However, the Government in the
Sunshine Law applies to private entities that provide services to governmental agencies and that act on
behalf of those agencies in the agencies' performance of their public duties. If a public agency delegates
the performance of its public purpose to a private entity, then, to the extent that private entity is
performing that public purpose, the Government in the Sunshine Law applies. For example, if a volunteer
fire department provides firefighting services to a governmental entity and uses facilities and equipment
purchased with public funds, then the Government in the Sunshine Law applies to board of directors for
that volunteer fire department. Thus, to the extent that the Government in the Sunshine Law applies to
the Sub-Recipient based upon the funds provided under this Agreement, the meetings of the Sub-
Recipient's governing board or the meetings of any subcommittee making recommendations to the
governing board may be subject to open government requirements. These meetings shall be publicly
noticed, open to the public, and the minutes of all the meetings shall be public records, available to the
public in accordance with Chapter 119, Florida Statutes.
h. Florida's Public Records Law provides a right of access to the records of the state
and local governments as well as to private entities acting on their behalf. Unless specifically exempted
from disclosure by the Legislature, all materials made or received by a governmental agency (or a private
entity acting on behalf of such an agency) in conjunction with official business which are used to
perpetuate, communicate, or formalize knowledge qualify as public records subject to public inspection.
The mere receipt of public funds by a private entity, standing alone, is insufficient to bring that entity
within the ambit of the public record requirements. However, when a public entity delegates a public
function to a private entity, the records generated by the private entity's performance of that duty become
public records. Thus, the nature and scope of the services provided by a private entity determine whether
that entity is acting on behalf of a public agency and is therefore subject to the requirements of Florida's
Public Records Law.
i. The Sub-Recipient shall maintain all records for the Sub-Recipient and for all
subcontractors or consultants to be paid from funds provided under this Agreement, including
documentation of all program costs, in a form sufficient to determine compliance with the requirements
and objectives of the Budget and Scope of Work - Attachment A - and all other applicable laws and
regulations.

auditing standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, which are applicable to
financial audits.”
d. If an audit shows that all or any portion of the funds disbursed were not spent in
accordance with the conditions of this Agreement, the Sub-Recipient shall be held liable for
reimbursement to the Division of all funds not spent in accordance with these applicable regulations and
Agreement provisions within thirty (30) days after the Division has notified the Sub-Recipient of such non-
compliance.
e. The Sub-Recipient shall have all audits completed by an independent auditor, which
is defined in section 215.97(2)(i), Florida Statutes, as “an independent certified public accountant licensed
under chapter 473.” The independent auditor shall state that the audit complied with the applicable
provisions noted above. The audit must be received by the Division no later than nine months from the
end of the Sub-Recipient’s fiscal year.

quarterly reports and a close-out report. These reports shall include the current status and progress by
the Sub-Recipient and all subcontractors in completing the work described in the Scope of Work and the
expenditure of funds under this Agreement, in addition to any other information requested by the Division.
b. Quarterly reports are due to the Division no later than fifteen (15) days after the end
of each quarter of the program year and shall be sent each quarter until submission of the administrative

manner acceptable to the Division, then the Division may withhold further payments until they are
completed or may take other action as stated in Paragraph (16) REMEDIES. "Acceptable to the
Division" means that the work product was completed in accordance with the Budget and Scope of Work.
e. The Sub-Recipient shall provide additional program updates or information that may
be required by the Division.
f. The Sub-Recipient shall provide additional reports and information identified in
Attachment F.
(13) MONITORING
a. The Sub-Recipient shall monitor its performance under this Agreement, as well as
that of its subcontractors and/or consultants who are paid from funds provided under this Agreement, to
ensure that time schedules are being met, the Schedule of Deliverables and Scope of Work are being
accomplished within the specified time periods, and other performance goals are being achieved. A
review shall be done for each function or activity in Attachment A to this Agreement, and reported in the
quarterly report.
b. In addition to reviews of audits, monitoring procedures may include, but not be limited
to, on-site visits by Division staff, limited scope audits, and/or other procedures. The Sub-Recipient
agrees to comply and cooperate with any monitoring procedures/processes deemed appropriate by the
11
Division. In the event that the Division determines that a limited scope audit of the Sub-Recipient is
appropriate, the Sub-Recipient agrees to comply with any additional instructions provided by the Division
to the Sub-Recipient regarding such audit. The Sub-Recipient further agrees to comply and cooperate
with any inspections, reviews, investigations or audits deemed necessary by the Florida Chief Financial
Officer or Auditor General. In addition, the Division will monitor the performance and financial
management by the Sub-Recipient throughout the contract term to ensure timely completion of all tasks.
(14) LIABILITY
a. Unless Sub-Recipient is a State agency or subdivision, as defined in section
768.28(2), Florida Statutes, the Sub-Recipient is solely responsible to parties it deals with in carrying out
the terms of this Agreement and, as authorized by section 768.28(19), Florida Statutes, Sub-Recipient
shall hold the Division harmless against all claims of whatever nature by third parties arising from the
work performance under this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, Sub-Recipient agrees that it is
not an employee or agent of the Division, but is an independent contractor.
b. As required by section 768.28(19), Florida Statutes, any Sub-Recipient which is a
state agency or subdivision, as defined in section 768.28(2), Florida Statutes, agrees to be fully
responsible for its negligent or tortious acts or omissions which result in claims or suits against the
Division, and agrees to be liable for any damages proximately caused by the acts or omissions to the
extent set forth in Section 768.28, Florida Statutes. Nothing herein is intended to serve as a waiver of
sovereign immunity by any Sub-Recipient to which sovereign immunity applies. Nothing herein shall be
construed as consent by a state agency or subdivision of the State of Florida to be sued by third parties in
any matter arising out of any contract.
(15) DEFAULT
If any of the following events occur ("Events of Default"), all obligations on the part of the
Division to make further payment of funds shall terminate and the Division has the option to exercise any
of its remedies set forth in Paragraph (16); however, the Division may make payments or partial payments
after any Events of Default without waiving the right to exercise such remedies, and without becoming
liable to make any further payment if:
a. Any warranty or representation made by the Sub-Recipient in this Agreement or any
previous agreement with the Division is or becomes false or misleading in any respect, or if the Sub-
Recipient fails to keep or perform any of the obligations, terms or covenants in this Agreement or any
previous agreement with the Division and has not cured them in timely fashion, or is unable or unwilling to
meet its obligations under this Agreement;
b. Material adverse changes occur in the financial condition of the Sub-Recipient at any
time during the term of this Agreement, and the Sub-Recipient fails to cure this adverse change within
thirty (30) days from the date written notice is sent by the Division;
c. Any reports required by this Agreement have not been submitted to the Division or
have been submitted with incorrect, incomplete or insufficient information; or,
12
d. The Sub-Recipient has failed to perform and complete on time any of its obligations
under this Agreement.
(16) REMEDIES
If an Event of Default occurs, then the Division shall, after thirty (30) calendar days
written notice to the Sub-Recipient and upon the Sub-Recipient's failure to cure within those thirty (30)
days, exercise any one or more of the following remedies, either concurrently or consecutively:
a. Terminate this Agreement, provided that the Sub-Recipient is given at least thirty (30)
days prior written notice of the termination. The notice shall be effective when placed in the United
States, first class mail, postage prepaid, by registered or certified mail-return receipt requested, to the
address in paragraph (3) herein;
b. Begin an appropriate legal or equitable action to enforce performance of this
Agreement;
c. Withhold or suspend payment of all or any part of a request for payment;

if the situation is not corrected,
iii. Advise the Sub-Recipient to suspend, discontinue or refrain from incurring
costs for any activities in question or
iv. Require the Sub-Recipient to reimburse the Division for the amount of costs
incurred for any items determined to be ineligible;
f. Exercise any other rights or remedies which may be available under law.
Pursuing any of the above remedies will not stop the Division from pursuing any other
remedies in this Agreement or provided at law or in equity. If the Division waives any right or remedy in
this Agreement or fails to insist on strict performance by the Sub-Recipient, it will not affect, extend or
waive any other right or remedy of the Division, or affect the later exercise of the same right or remedy by
the Division for any other default by the Sub-Recipient.
(17) TERMINATION
a. The Division may terminate this Agreement for cause after thirty (30) days written
notice. Cause can include misuse of funds, fraud, lack of compliance with applicable rules, laws and
regulations, failure to perform on time, and refusal by the Sub-Recipient to permit public access to any
document, paper, letter, or other material subject to disclosure under Chapter 119, Florida Statutes, as
amended.
13
b. The Division may terminate this Agreement for convenience or when it determines, in
its sole discretion that continuing the Agreement would not produce beneficial results in line with the
further expenditure of funds, by providing the Sub-Recipient with thirty (30) calendar day’s prior written
notice.
c. The parties may agree to terminate this Agreement for their mutual convenience
through a written amendment of this Agreement. The amendment will state the effective date of the
termination and the procedures for proper closeout of the Agreement.
d. In the event that this Agreement is terminated, the Sub-Recipient will not incur new
obligations for the terminated portion of the Agreement after the Sub-Recipient has received the
notification of termination. The Sub-Recipient will cancel as many outstanding obligations as possible.
Costs incurred after receipt of the termination notice will be disallowed. The Sub-Recipient shall not be
relieved of liability to the Division because of any breach of Agreement by the Sub-Recipient. The
Division may, to the extent authorized by law, withhold payments to the Sub-Recipient for the purpose of
set-off until the exact amount of damages due the Division from the Sub-Recipient is determined.
(18) PROCUREMENT
a. The Sub-Recipient shall ensure that any procurement involving funds authorized by
the Agreement complies with all applicable federal and state laws and regulations, to include 2 C.F.R.
§§200.318 through 200.326 as well as Appendix II to 2 C.F.R. Part 200 (entitled “Contract Provisions for
Non-Federal Entity Contracts Under Federal Awards”).
b. As required by 2 C.F.R. §200.318(i), the Sub-Recipient shall “maintain records
sufficient to detail the history of procurement. These records will include, but are not necessarily limited
to the following: rationale for the method of procurement, selection of contract type, contractor selection
or rejection, and the basis for the contract price.”
c. As required by 2 C.F.R. §200.318(b), the Sub-Recipient shall “maintain oversight to
ensure that contractors perform in accordance with the terms, conditions, and specifications of their
contracts or purchase orders.” In order to demonstrate compliance with this requirement, the Sub-
Recipient shall document, in its quarterly report to the Division, the progress of any and all subcontractors
performing work under this Agreement.
d. Except for procurements by micro-purchases pursuant to 2 C.F.R. §200.320(a) or
procurements by small purchase procedures pursuant to 2 C.F.R. §200.320(b), if the Sub-Recipient
chooses to subcontract any of the work required under this Agreement, then the Sub-Recipient shall
forward to the Division a copy of any solicitation (whether competitive or non-competitive) at least fifteen
(15) days prior to the publication or communication of the solicitation. The Division shall review the
solicitation and provide comments, if any, to the Sub-Recipient within three (3) business days. Consistent
with 2 C.F.R. §200.324, the Division will review the solicitation for compliance with the procurement
standards outlined in 2 C.F.R. §§200.318 through 200.326 as well as Appendix II to 2 C.F.R. Part 200.
Consistent with 2 C.F.R. §200.318(k), the Division will not substitute its judgment for that of the Sub-
14
Recipient. While the Sub-Recipient does not need the approval of the Division in order to publish a
competitive solicitation, this review may allow the Division to identify deficiencies in the vendor
requirements or in the commodity or service specifications. The Division’s review and comments shall not
constitute an approval of the solicitation. Regardless of the Division’s review, the Sub-Recipient remains
bound by all applicable laws, regulations, and agreement terms. If during its review the Division identifies
any deficiencies, then the Division shall communicate those deficiencies to the Sub-Recipient as quickly
as possible within the three (3) business day window outlined above. If the Sub-Recipient publishes a
competitive solicitation after receiving comments from the Division that the solicitation is deficient, then
the Division may:
i. Terminate this Agreement in accordance with the provisions outlined in
paragraph (17) above; and,
ii. Refuse to reimburse the Sub-Recipient for any costs associated with that
solicitation.
e. Except for procurements by micro-purchases pursuant to 2 C.F.R. §200.320(a) or
procurements by small purchase procedures pursuant to 2 C.F.R. §200.320(b), if the Sub-Recipient
chooses to subcontract any of the work required under this Agreement, then the Sub-Recipient shall
forward to the Division a copy of any contemplated contract prior to contract execution. The Division shall
review the unexecuted contract and provide comments, if any, to the Sub-Recipient within three (3)
business days. Consistent with 2 C.F.R. §200.324, the Division will review the unexecuted contract for
compliance with the procurement standards outlined in 2 C.F.R. §§200.318 through 200.326 as well as
Appendix II to 2 C.F.R. Part 200. Consistent with 2 C.F.R. §200.318(k), the Division will not substitute its
judgment for that of the Sub-Recipient. While the Sub-Recipient does not need the approval of the
Division in order to execute a subcontract, this review may allow the Division to identify deficiencies in the
terms and conditions of the subcontract as well as deficiencies in the procurement process that led to the
subcontract. The Division’s review and comments shall not constitute an approval of the subcontract.
Regardless of the Division’s review, the Sub-Recipient remains bound by all applicable laws, regulations,
and agreement terms. If during its review the Division identifies any deficiencies, then the Division shall
communicate those deficiencies to the Sub-Recipient as quickly as possible within the three (3) business
day window outlined above. If the Sub-Recipient executes a subcontract after receiving a communication
from the Division that the subcontract is non-compliant, then the Division may:
i. Terminate this Agreement in accordance with the provisions outlined in
paragraph (17) above; and,
ii. Refuse to reimburse the Sub-Recipient for any costs associated with that
subcontract.
f. The Sub-Recipient agrees to include in the subcontract that (i) the subcontractor is
bound by the terms of this Agreement, (ii) the subcontractor is bound by all applicable state and federal
laws and regulations, and (iii) the subcontractor shall hold the Division and Sub-Recipient harmless
15
against all claims of whatever nature arising out of the subcontractor's performance of work under this
Agreement, to the extent allowed and required by law.
g. As required by 2 C.F.R. §200.318(c)(1), the Sub-Recipient shall “maintain written
standards of conduct covering conflicts of interest and governing the actions of its employees engaged in
the selection, award and administration of contracts.”
h. As required by 2 C.F.R. §200.319(a), the Sub-Recipient shall conduct any
procurement under this agreement “in a manner providing full and open competition.” Accordingly, the
Sub-Recipient shall not:
i. Place unreasonable requirements on firms in order for them to qualify to do
business;
ii. Require unnecessary experience or excessive bonding;
iii. Use noncompetitive pricing practices between firms or between affiliated
companies;
iv. Execute noncompetitive contracts to consultants that are on retainer
contracts;
v. Authorize, condone, or ignore organizational conflicts of interest;
vi. Specify only a brand name product without allowing vendors to offer an
equivalent;
vii. Specify a brand name product instead of describing the performance,
specifications, or other relevant requirements that pertain to the commodity or service solicited by the
procurement;
viii. Engage in any arbitrary action during the procurement process; or,
ix. Allow a vendor to bid on a contract if that bidder was involved with
developing or drafting the specifications, requirements, statement of work, invitation to bid, or request for
proposals.
i. “[E]xcept in those cases where applicable Federal statutes expressly mandate or
encourage” otherwise, the Sub-Recipient, as required by 2 C.F.R. §200.319(b), shall not use a
geographic preference when procuring commodities or services under this Agreement.
j. The Sub-Recipient shall conduct any procurement involving invitations to bid (i.e.
sealed bids) in accordance with 2 C.F.R. §200.320(c) as well as section 287.057(1)(a), Florida Statutes.
k. The Sub-Recipient shall conduct any procurement involving requests for proposals
(i.e. competitive proposals) in accordance with 2 C.F.R. §200.320(d) as well as section 287.057(1)(b),
Florida Statutes.
l. For each subcontract, the Sub-Recipient shall provide a written statement to the
Division as to whether that subcontractor is a minority business enterprise, as defined in Section 288.703,
Florida Statutes. Additionally, the Sub-Recipient shall comply with the requirements of 2 C.F.R. §200.321
16
(“Contracting with small and minority businesses, women's business enterprises, and labor surplus area
firms”).

a. In accordance with 41 C.F.R. §60-1.4(b), the Sub-Recipient hereby agrees that it will
incorporate or cause to be incorporated into any contract for construction work, or modification thereof, as
defined in the regulations of the Secretary of Labor at 41 CFR Chapter 60, which is paid for in whole or in
part with funds obtained from the Federal Government or borrowed on the credit of the Federal
Government pursuant to a grant, contract, loan insurance, or guarantee, or undertaken pursuant to any
Federal program involving such grant, contract, loan, insurance, or guarantee, the following equal
opportunity clause:
During the performance of this contract, the contractor agrees as follows:
i. The contractor will not discriminate against any employee or
applicant for employment because of race, color, religion, sex, sexual
orientation, gender identity, or national origin. The contractor will take
affirmative action to ensure that applicants are employed, and that
employees are treated during employment without regard to their race,
color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin.
Such action shall include, but not be limited to the following:
Employment, upgrading, demotion, or transfer; recruitment or recruitment
advertising; layoff or termination; rates of pay or other forms of
compensation; and selection for training, including apprenticeship. The
contractor agrees to post in conspicuous places, available to employees
and applicants for employment, notices to be provided setting forth the
provisions of this nondiscrimination clause.
ii. The contractor will, in all solicitations or advertisements for
employees placed by or on behalf of the contractor, state that all
qualified applicants will receive considerations for employment without
regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or
national origin.
iii. The contractor will not discharge or in any other manner
discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because
such employee or applicant has inquired about, discussed, or disclosed
the compensation of the employee or applicant or another employee or
applicant. This provision shall not apply to instances in which an
employee who has access to the compensation information of other
employees or applicants as a part of such employee’s essential job
functions discloses the compensation of such other employees or
22
applicants to individuals who do not otherwise have access to such
information, unless such disclosure is in response to a formal complaint
or charge, in furtherance of an investigation, proceeding, hearing, or
action, including an investigation conducted by the employer, or is
consistent with the contractor’s legal duty to furnish information.
iv. The contractor will send to each labor union or representative of
workers with which he has a collective bargaining agreement or other
contract or understanding, a notice to be provided advising the said labor
union or workers’ representatives of the contractor’s commitments under
this section, and shall post copies of the notice in conspicuous places
available to employees and applicants for employment.
v. The contractor will comply with all provisions of Executive Order
11246 of September 24, 1965, and of the rules, regulations, and relevant
orders of the Secretary of Labor.
vi. The contractor will furnish all information and reports required by
Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, and by rules,
regulations, and orders of the Secretary of Labor, or pursuant thereto,
and will permit access to his books, records, and accounts by the
administering agency and the Secretary of Labor for purposes of
investigation to ascertain compliance with such rules, regulations, and
orders.
vii. In the event of the contractor’s noncompliance with the
nondiscrimination clauses of this contract or with any of the said rules,
regulations, or orders, this contract may be canceled, terminated, or
suspended in whole or in part and the contractor may be declared
ineligible for further Government contracts or federally assisted
construction contracts in accordance with procedures authorized in
Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, and such other sanctions
may be imposed and remedies invoked as provided in Executive Order
11246 of September 24, 1965, or by rule, regulation, or order of the
Secretary of Labor, or as otherwise provided by law.
viii. The contractor will include the portion of the sentence
immediately preceding paragraph (1) and the provisions of paragraphs
(1) through (8) in every subcontract or purchase order unless exempted
by rules, regulations, or orders of the Secretary of Labor issued pursuant
to section 204 of Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, so that
such provisions will be binding upon each subcontractor or vendor. The
contractor will take such action with respect to any subcontract or
purchase order as the administering agency may direct as a means of
enforcing such provisions, including sanctions for noncompliance:
Provided, however, that in the event a contractor becomes involved in, or
is threatened with, litigation with a subcontractor or vendor as a result of
such direction by the administering agency the contractor may request
the United States to enter into such litigation to protect the interests of
the United States.
b. The Sub-Recipient further agrees that it will be bound by the above equal opportunity
clause with respect to its own employment practices when it participates in federally assisted construction
23
work: Provided, that if the applicant so participating is a State or local government, the above equal
opportunity clause is not applicable to any agency, instrumentality or subdivision of such government
which does not participate in work on or under the contract.
c. The Sub-Recipient agrees that it will assist and cooperate actively with the
administering agency and the Secretary of Labor in obtaining the compliance of contractors and
subcontractors with the equal opportunity clause and the rules, regulations, and relevant orders of the
Secretary of Labor, that it will furnish the administering agency and the Secretary of Labor such
information as they may require for the supervision of such compliance, and that it will otherwise assist
the administering agency in the discharge of the agency’s primary responsibility for securing compliance.
d. The Sub-Recipient further agrees that it will refrain from entering into any contract or
contract modification subject to Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, with a contractor
debarred from, or who has not demonstrated eligibility for, Government contracts and federally assisted
construction contracts pursuant to the Executive order and will carry out such sanctions and penalties for
violation of the equal opportunity clause as may be imposed upon contractors and subcontractors by the
administering agency or the Secretary of Labor pursuant to Part II, Subpart D of the Executive order. In
addition, the Sub-Recipient agrees that if it fails or refuses to comply with these undertakings, the
administering agency may take any or all of the following actions: cancel, terminate, or suspend in whole
or in part this grant (contract, loan, insurance, guarantee); refrain from extending any further assistance to
the Sub-Recipient under the program with respect to which the failure or refund occurred until satisfactory
assurance of future compliance has been received from such Sub-Recipient; and refer the case to the
Department of Justice for appropriate legal proceedings.

then any such contract must include the following provisions:
i. This contract is a covered transaction for purposes of 2 C.F.R.
pt. 180 and 2 C.F.R. pt. 3000. As such the contractor is required to

(defined at 2 C.F.R. § 180.940) or disqualified (defined at 2 C.F.R. §
180.935).

2 C.F.R. pt. 3000, subpart C and must include a requirement to comply

(31) BYRD ANTI-LOBBYING AMENDMENT
If the Sub-Recipient, with the funds authorized by this Agreement, enters into a contract,
then any such contract must include the following clause:
Byrd Anti-Lobbying Amendment, 31 U.S.C. § 1352 (as amended).
Contractors who apply or bid for an award of $100,000 or more shall file
the required certification. Each tier certifies to the tier above that it will
not and has not used Federal appropriated funds to pay any person or
organization for influencing or attempting to influence an officer or
employee of any agency, a member of Congress, officer or employee of
Congress, or an employee of a member of Congress in connection with
obtaining any Federal contract, grant, or any other award covered by 31
U.S.C. § 1352. Each tier shall also disclose any lobbying with non-
Federal funds that takes place in connection with obtaining any Federal
award. Such disclosures are forwarded from tier to tier up to the
recipient.
(32) CONTRACTING WITH SMALL AND MINORITY BUSINESSES, WOMEN’S BUSINESS
ENTERPRISES, AND LABOR SURPLUS AREA FIRMS
a. If the Sub-Recipient, with the funds authorized by this Agreement, seeks to procure
goods or services, then, in accordance with 2 C.F.R. §200.321, the Sub-Recipient shall take the following
affirmative steps to assure that minority businesses, women’s business enterprises, and labor surplus
area firms are used whenever possible:
i. Placing qualified small and minority businesses and women's business
enterprises on solicitation lists;
ii. Assuring that small and minority businesses, and women's business
enterprises are solicited whenever they are potential sources;
iii. Dividing total requirements, when economically feasible, into smaller tasks or
quantities to permit maximum participation by small and minority businesses, and women's business
enterprises;
iv. Establishing delivery schedules, where the requirement permits, which
encourage participation by small and minority businesses, and women's business enterprises;
v. Using the services and assistance, as appropriate, of such organizations as
the Small Business Administration and the Minority Business Development Agency of the Department of
Commerce; and
vi. Requiring the prime contractor, if subcontracts are to be let, to take the
affirmative steps listed in paragraphs i. through v. of this subparagraph.
b. The requirement outlined in subparagraph a. above, sometimes referred to as
“socioeconomic contracting,” does not impose an obligation to set aside either the solicitation or award of
26
a contract to these types of firms. Rather, the requirement only imposes an obligation to carry out and
document the six affirmative steps identified above.
c. The “socioeconomic contracting” requirement outlines the affirmative steps that the
Sub-Recipient must take; the requirements do not preclude the Sub-Recipient from undertaking additional
steps to involve small and minority businesses and women's business enterprises.
d. The requirement to divide total requirements, when economically feasible, into
smaller tasks or quantities to permit maximum participation by small and minority businesses, and
women’s business enterprises, does not authorize the Sub-Recipient to break a single project down into
smaller components in order to circumvent the micro-purchase or small purchase thresholds so as to
utilize streamlined acquisition procedures (e.g. “project splitting”).

funded under this Agreement will affect a previously unidentified property that may be
eligible for inclusion in the National Register or affect a known historic property in an
unanticipated manner. The Sub-recipient acknowledges that FEMA may require the Sub-
recipient to stop construction in the vicinity of the discovery of a previously unidentified
property that may eligible for inclusion in the National Register or upon learning that
construction may affect a known historic property in an unanticipated manner. The Sub-
recipient further acknowledges that FEMA may require the Sub-recipient to take all
42
reasonable measures to avoid or minimize harm to such property until FEMA concludes
consultation with the SHPO. The Sub-recipient also acknowledges that FEMA will
require, and the Sub-recipient shall comply with, modifications to the project scope of
work necessary to implement recommendations to address the project and the property.
(7) The Sub-recipient acknowledges that, unless FEMA specifically stipulates otherwise, it
shall not receive funding for projects when, with intent to avoid the requirements of the
