(hereinafter referred to as the"Sub-Recipient").
For the purposes of this Agreement, the Division serves as the pass-through entity for a Federal

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

Agreement.
(8) PERIOD OF AGREEMENT.
This Agreement shall begin on April 20, 2017 and end June 5, 2017, 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."

authorized by this Agreement"only for allowable costs resulting from obligations incurred during"the
period of agreement.

$62,223.72.
i6E3

e. 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
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)."
f. The Division will review any request for reimbursement by comparing the
documentation provided by the Sub-Recipient in FloridaPA.org against a performance measure, outlined
in Attachment B, Scope of Work, Deliverables, and Financial Consequences, 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.
g. 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."
h. 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 authorized by the Federal
Awarding Agency, and 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,
16E 3
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.
i. 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),
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.
j. 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.
k. 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.
16 E 3

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
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.
9 16E 3
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,
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
16E 3
10
and objectives of the Budget and Project List—Attachment A, Scope of Work—Attachment B, and all
other applicable laws and regulations.

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

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 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)(h), 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.

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 30 days after the end of each

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

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

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.

(1) through (7) 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
16E 3
24
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.

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.
(27)COPELAND ANTI-KICKBACK ACT
The Sub-Recipient hereby agrees that, unless exempt under Federal law, it will
incorporate or cause to be incorporated into any contract for construction work, or modification thereof,
the following clause:
i. Contractor. The contractor shall comply with 18 U.S.C. § 874,
40 U.S.C. § 3145, and the requirements of 29 C.F.R. pt. 3 as may be
applicable, which are incorporated by reference into this contract.
ii. Subcontracts. The contractor or subcontractor shall insert in any
subcontracts the clause above and such other clauses as the FEMA may
by appropriate instructions require, and also a clause requiring the
subcontractors to include these clauses in any lower tier subcontracts.
16E 3
25
The prime contractor shall be responsible for the compliance by any
subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor with all of these contract
clauses.
iii. Breach. A breach of the contract clauses above may be grounds
for termination of the contract, and for debarment as a contractor and
subcontractor as provided in 29 C.F.R. § 5.12.
(28)CONTRACT WORK HOURS AND SAFETY STANDARDS
If the Sub-Recipient, with the funds authorized by this Agreement, enters into a contract
that exceeds$100,000 and involves the employment of mechanics or laborers, then any such contract
must include a provision for compliance with 40 U.S.C. 3702 and 3704, as supplemented by Department
of Labor regulations (29 CFR Part 5). Under 40 U.S.C. 3702 of the Act, each contractor must be required
to compute the wages of every mechanic and laborer on the basis of a standard work week of forty(40)
hours. Work in excess of the standard work week is permissible provided that the worker is compensated
at a rate of not less than one and a half times the basic rate of pay for all hours worked in excess of forty
(40) hours in the work week. The requirements of 40 U.S.C. 3704 are applicable to construction work
and provide that no laborer or mechanic must be required to work in surroundings or under working
conditions which are unsanitary, hazardous or dangerous. These requirements do not apply to the
purchases of supplies or materials or articles ordinarily available on the open market, or contracts for
transportation.
(29)CLEAN AIR ACT AND THE FEDERAL WATER POLLUTION CONTROL ACT
If the Sub-Recipient, with the funds authorized by this Agreement, enters into a contract
that exceeds $150,000, then any such contract must include the following provision:

1251-1387), and will report violations to FEMA and the Regional Office of
the Environmental Protection Agency(EPA).
(30)SUSPENSION AND DEBARMENT
Per 2 C.F.R. 200.213 Suspension and debarment, non-Federal entities are subject to the
non-procurement debarment and suspension regulations implementing Executive Orders 12549 and
12689, 2 C.F.R. part 180. These regulations restrict awards, subawards, and contracts with certain
parties that are debarred, suspended, or otherwise excluded from or ineligible for participation in Federal
assistance programs or activities.
If the Sub-Recipient, with the funds authorized by this Agreement, enters into a contract,
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
verify that none of the contractor, its principals (defined at 2 C.F.R. §
180.995), or its affiliates (defined at 2 C.F.R. § 180.905) are excluded
(defined at 2 C.F.R. § 180.940) or disqualified (defined at 2 C.F.R. §
180.935).
16E 3
26
ii. The contractor must comply with 2 C.F.R. pt. 180, subpart C and
2 C.F.R. pt. 3000, subpart C and must include a requirement to comply
with these regulations in any lower tier covered transaction it enters into.
iii. This certification is a material representation of fact relied upon
by the Division. If it is later determined that the contractor did not comply
with 2 C.F.R. pt. 180, subpart C and 2 C.F.R. pt. 3000, subpart C, in
addition to remedies available to the Division, the Federal Government
may pursue available remedies, including but not limited to suspension
and/or debarment.
iv. The bidder or proposer agrees to comply with the requirements
of 2 C.F.R. pt. 180, subpart C and 2 C.F.R. pt. 3000, subpart C while this
offer is valid and throughout the period of any contract that may arise
from this offer. The bidder or proposer further agrees to include a
provision requiring such compliance in its lower tier covered transactions.
(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;
1 6 E 3
27
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
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").

SCOPE OF WORK, DELIVERABLES
and FINANCIAL CONSEQUENCES
Scope of Work
Complete eligible Projects for emergency protective measures and fire-fighting activities.
When FEMA has obligated funding for a Sub-Recipient's PW, the Division notifies the Sub-Recipient with
a copy of the PW (or P2 Report). A Sub-Recipient may receive more than one PW and each will contain
a separate Project. Attachment A, Budget and Project List of this Agreement will be modified as
necessary to incorporate new or revised PWs. For the purpose of this Agreement, each Project will
be monitored, completed and reimbursed independently of the other Projects which are made part
of this Agreement.
Deliverables
Reimbursement requests will be submitted separately for each Project. Reimbursement for Project costs
shall be based on the percentage of completion of the individual Project. Any request for reimbursement
shall provide adequate, well organized and complete source documentation to support all costs related to
the Project, and shall be clearly identified by the Project Number as generated by FEMA. Requests
which do not conform will be returned to the Sub-Recipient prior to acceptance for payment.
Reimbursement up to 95% of the total eligible amount will be paid upon acceptance and contingent upon:
• Timely submission of Quarterly Reports (due 30 days after end of each quarter).
• Timely submission of invoices (Requests for Reimbursement) at least quarterly and supported by
documentation for all costs of the project or services. The final invoice shall be submitted within
sixty (60) days after the expiration of the agreement or completion of the project, whichever
occurs first. An explanation of any circumstances prohibiting the submittal of quarterly invoices
shall be submitted to the Division Grant Manager as part of the Sub-Recipient's quarterly
reporting as referenced in Paragraph 7 of this agreement.
• Timely submission of Request for Final Inspection (within ninety (90) days of project completion —
for each project).
• Sub-Recipient shall include a sworn Affidavit or American Institute of Architects (AIA)forms G702
and G703, as required below.
o A. Affidavit. The Recipient is required to submit an Affidavit signed by the Recipient's
project personnel with each reimbursement request attesting to the following: the
percentage of completion of the work that the reimbursement request represents, that
disbursements or payments were made in accordance with all of the Agreement and
regulatory conditions, and that reimbursement is due and has not been previously
requested.
o B. AIA Forms G702 and G703. For construction projects where an architectural,
engineering or construction management firm provides construction administration
services, the Recipient shall provide a copy of the American Institute of Architects (AIA)
form G702, Application and Certification for Payment, or a comparable form approved by
the Division, signed by the contractor and inspection/certifying architect or engineer, and
a copy of form G703, Continuation Sheet, or a comparable form approved by the
Division.
Five percent (5%) of the total eligible amount(including Federal, state and local shares)will be withheld
from payment until the final Request for Reimbursement(or backup for advance expenditure) has been
verified as acceptable by the Division's grant manager, which must include dated certification that the
32
16E 3
Project is 100% complete. Further, all required documentation must be available in FloridaPA.org prior to
release of final 5%, to include permits, policies & procedures, procurement and insurance documents.

DESIGNATION OF AUTHORITY
The Designation of Authority Form is submitted with each new disaster or emergency declaration to
provide the authority for the Sub-Recipient's Primary Agent and Alternate Agent to access the FloridaPA.org
system in order to enter notes, review notes and documents, and submit the documentation necessary to
work the new event. The Designation of Authority Form is originally submitted as Attachment"D"to the PA
Funding Agreement for each disaster or emergency declaration. Subsequently, the Primary or Alternate
contact should review the agency contacts at least quarterly. The Authorized Representative can request
a change in contacts via email to the state team; a note should be entered in FloridaPA.org if the list is
correct. Contacts should be removed as soon as they separate, retire, or are reassigned by the Agency. A
new form will only be needed if all authorized representatives have separated from your agency. Note that
if a new Designation form is submitted, all Agency Representatives currently listed as contacts that are not
included on the updated form will be deleted from FloridaPA.org as the contacts listed are replaced in the
system, not supplemented. All users must log in on a monthly basis to keep their accounts from becoming
locked.
Instructions for Completion
Complete the form in its entirety, listing the name and information for all representatives who will be working
in the FloridaPA.org Grant Management System. Users will be notified via email when they have been
granted access. The user must log in to the FloridaPA.org system within 12 hours of being notified or their
account will lock them out. Each user must log in within a 60-day time period or their account will lock them
out. In the event you try to log in and your account is locked, submit a ticket using the Access Request link
on the home page.
The form is divided into twelve blocks; each block must be completed where appropriate.
Block 1: "Authorized Agent"—This should be the highest authority in your organization who is authorized
to sign legal documents on behalf of your organization. (Only one Authorized Agent is allowed and this
person will have full access/authority unless otherwise requested).
Block 2: "Primary Agent" — This is the person designated by your organization to receive all
correspondence and is our main point of contact. This contact will be responsible for answering questions,
uploading documents, and submitting reports/requests in FloridaPA.org. The Primary Agent is usually not
the Authorized Agent but should be responsible for updating all internal stakeholders on all grant activities.
(Only one Primary Agent is allowed and this contact will have full access).
Block 3: "Alternate Agent" —This is the person designated by your organization to be available when the
Primary is not. (Only one Alternate Agent is allowed and this contact will have full access).
Block 4, 5, and 6: "Other" (Finance/Point of Contact, Risk Management-Insurance, and Environmental-
Historic). Providing these contacts is essential in the coordination and communication required between
state and local subject matter experts. We understand that the same agent may be identified in multiple
blocks, however we ask that you enter the name and information again to ensure we are communicating
with the correct individuals.
Block 7—12: "Other" (Read Only Access)—There is no limit on "Other" contacts but we ask that this be
restricted to those that are going to actually need to log in and have a role in reviewing the information.
This designation is only for situational awareness purposes as individuals with the "Other Read-Only"
designation cannot take any action in FloridaPA.org.

ties.

throughout the project's life. This includes processing advances, reimbursement requests,quarterly reports,
final inspection schedules, change requests, time extensions, and other services as identified in the
Agreement. Training on this system will be supplied by the Recipient upon request by the Sub-Recipient.
The Sub-Recipient is required to have working knowledge of the FloridaPA.org system.
ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS
The Sub-Recipient may claim costs associated with requesting, obtaining, and administering a Subgrant
for a declared fire. Direct costs include regular and overtime pay and travel expenses for permanent,
reassigned, temporary, and contract employees who assist in administering the fire management
assistance Subgrant.
Funding for other direct costs incurred by the Subgrantee administering the Subgrant, such as equipment
and supply purchases, may be eligible, but must be reviewed by the Grantee and FEMA Regional
Administrator.
PROJECT DOCUMENTATION
The Sub-Recipient must maintain all source documentation supporting the project costs and must comply
with OMB Circular A-133. Specifically, that section requiring Subgrant recipients expending $500,000 or
more in Federal funds in a fiscal year to obtain an audit. To facilitate closeout and audits, the Applicant
should file all documentation pertaining to each project with the corresponding PW as the
permanent record of the project. In order to validate Project Requests for Reimbursement (RFRs), all
supporting documents should be uploaded to the FloridaPA.org website. Contact the grant manager with
questions about how and where to upload documents, and for assistance linking common documents that
apply to more than one (1) PW.
The Sub-Recipient must retain sufficient records to show its compliance with the terms of this Agreement,
including documentation of all program costs, in a form sufficient to determine compliance with the
requirements and objectives under this Agreement and all other applicable laws and regulations, for a
period of five (5) years from the date of the Sub-Recipient account closeout by FEMA.
The five (5) year period is extended if any litigation, claim or audit is started before the five (5) year period
expires, and extends beyond the five (5) year period. The records must then be retained until all litigation,
claims, or audit findings involving the records have been resolved.
Records for the disposition of non-expendable personal property valued at $5,00000 or more at the time it
is acquired must be retained for five (5) years after final account closeout.

APPEALS
The Sub-Recipient may appeal any grant-related determination made by FEMA, including determinations
on applicant eligibility, work eligibility, and cost eligibility.
There are two levels of appeals. The first is to the FEMA Regional Administrator. The second appeal is to
the Assistant Administrator of the Recovery Directorate in FEMA Headquarters, and the final administrative
decision of FEMA.
Applicants must submit appeals within 60 days to the Grantee. The Grantee will review the appeal and
forward it with a written recommendation to the FEMA Regional Administrator.
Appeals should contain documented justification supporting the appellant's position, specifying the
determination in dispute and the provisions in Federal law, regulation, or policy with which the appellant
believes the initial determination was inconsistent.
Within 90 days following receipt of an appeal, the FEMA Regional Administrator(for first appeal) or Deputy
Associate Administrator of the Office of Response and Recovery at FEMA Headquarter Office (for second
appeals) will notify the Grantee in writing of the disposition of the appeal or of the need for additional
information.
A request for additional information will include a date when the information must be provided. Within 90
days following the receipt of the requested additional information, or following expiration of the period for
providing the information, the Regional Administrator or Deputy Associate Administrator of the Office of
Response and Recovery will notify the Grantee in writing of the disposition of the appeal. If the decision is
to grant the appeal, the FEMA Regional Administrator takes appropriate implementing action.
When an appeal involves technical issues, the FEMA Regional Administrator or Deputy Associate
Administrator of the Office of Response and Recovery may submit the appeal to an independent scientific
or technical person or group for advice or recommendation. The period for this technical review may be in
addition to other allotted time periods. Within 90 days of receipt of a technical report, the Regional
Administrator or Deputy Associate Administrator of the Office of Response and Recovery will notify the
Grantee in writing of the disposition of the appeal.
PROJECT RECONCILIATION AND CLOSEOUT

INSURANCE
The Sub-Recipient understands and agrees that disaster funding for insurable activities provided by FEMA
is intended to supplement, not replace, financial assistance from insurance coverage and/or other sources.
Actual or anticipated insurance proceeds must be deducted from all applicable FEMA Fire Management
Assistance grants in order to avoid a duplication of benefits. The Sub-Recipient further understands and
agrees that If Fire Management Assistance funding is obligated for work that is subsequently determined
to be covered by insurance and/or other sources of funding, FEMA must de-obligate the funds per Stafford
Act Sections 101 (b)(4) and 312 (c).
16E 3
45
The Sub-Recipient agrees to notify the Recipient in writing within thirty (30) days of the date it becomes
aware of any insurance coverage for the damage identified on the applicable Project Worksheets and of
any entitlement to compensation or indemnification from such insurance. The Sub-recipient further agrees
to provide all pertinent insurance information, including but not limited to copies of all policies, declarations
pages, insuring agreements, conditions, and exclusions, Statement of Loss, and Statement of Values for
each insured damaged facility.
The Sub-Recipient understands and agrees that it is required to pursue payment under its insurance
policies to the best of its ability to maximize potential coverage available.
DUPLICATION OF BENEFITS
The Sub-Recipient understands it may not receive funding under this Agreement to pay for damage covered
by insurance, nor may the Sub-Recipient receive any other duplicate benefits from any source whatsoever.
The Sub-Recipient agrees to reimburse the Recipient if it receives any duplicate benefits, from any source,
for any damage identified on the applicable Project Worksheets, for which the Sub-Recipient has received
payment from the Recipient.
The Sub-Recipient agrees to notify the Recipient in writing within thirty (30) days of the date it becomes
aware of the possible availability of, applies for, or receives funds, regardless of the source, which could
reasonably be considered as duplicate benefits.
In the event the Recipient determines the Sub-Recipient has received duplicate benefits,the Sub-Recipient
gives the Grantee/Recipient and/or the Chief Financial Officer of the State of Florida, the express authority
to offset the amount of any such duplicate benefits by withholding them from any other funds otherwise due
and payable to the Sub-Recipient, and to use such remedies as may be available administratively, at law,
or at equity, to recover such benefits.
COMPLIANCE WITH PLANNING/PERMITTING REGULATIONS AND LAWS
The Sub-Recipient is responsible for the implementation and completion of the approved projects described
in the Project Worksheets in a manner acceptable to Recipient, and in accordance with applicable Local,
State, and Federal legal requirements.
If applicable, the contract documents for any project undertaken by the Sub-grantee/Sub-Recipient, and
any land use permitted by or engaged in by the Sub-grantee/Sub-Recipient, must be consistent with the
local government comprehensive plan.
The Sub-Recipient must ensure that any development or development order complies with all applicable
planning, permitting, and building requirements.
The Sub-Recipient must engage such competent, properly licensed, engineering, environmental,
archeological, building, and other technical and professional assistance at all project sites as may be
needed to ensure that the project complies with the contract documents.
ADVANCES
1. For a Federally funded contract, any advance payment is also subject to 2 C.F.,R. and the Cash
Management Improvement Act of 1990.
2. All advances must be held in an interest-bearing account with the interest being remitted to the
Recipient as often as practicable, but not later than ten (10)business days after the close of each calendar
quarter.
46 16 E 3
3. In order to prepare a Request for Advance (RFA) the Sub-Recipient must certify to the Recipient
that it has procedures in place to ensure that funds are disbursed to project vendors, contractors, and
subcontractors without unnecessary delay. The Sub-Recipient must prepare and submit a budget that
contains a timeline projecting future payment schedules through project completion.
4. A separate RFA must be completed for each Project Worksheet to be included in the Advance
Funding Payment.
5. The Sub-Recipient must complete a Request for Reimbursement(RFR)via FloridaPA.org no more
than ninety (90) days after receiving its Advance Payment for a specific project. The RFR must account
for all expenditures incurred while performing eligible work documented in the applicable Project
Worksheet for which the Advance was received.
6. If a reimbursement has been paid prior to the submittal of a request for an advance payment, an
Advance cannot be accepted for processing.
7. The Recipient may advance funds to the Sub-Recipient, not exceeding the Federal share, only if
the Sub-Recipient meets the following conditions:
a) the Sub-Recipient must certify to the Recipient that Sub-Recipient has procedures in place to
ensure that funds are disbursed to project vendors, contractors, and subcontractors without
unnecessary delay;
b) the Sub-Recipient must submit to the Recipient the budget supporting the request.
8. The Sub-Recipient must submit a statement justifying the advance and the proposed use of the
funds, which also specifies the amount of funds requested and certifies that the advanced funds will be
expended no more than ninety (90) days after receipt of the Advance;
9. The Recipient may, in its sole discretion, withhold a portion of the Federal and/or nonfederal share
of funding under this Agreement from the Sub-Recipient if the Recipient reasonably expects that the Sub-
Recipient cannot meet the projected budgeted timeline or that there may be a subsequent determination
by FEMA that a previous disbursement of funds under this or any other Agreement with the Sub-Recipient
was improper.
DESIGNATION OF AGENT
The Sub-Recipient must complete Attachment D by designating at least three agents to execute any
Requests for Advance or Reimbursement, certifications, or other necessary documentation on behalf of the
Sub-Recipient.
After execution of this Agreement, the authorized, primary, and secondary Agent may request changes to
contacts via email to the State assigned team.
In the event the Sub-Recipient contacts have not been updated regularly and all three (3) Agents have
separated from the Sub-Recipient's agency, a designation of authority form will be needed to change
contacts.
NOTE: This is very important because if contacts are not updated, notifications made from
FloridaPA.org may not be received and could result in failure to meet time periods to appeal a
Federal determination.
DUNS Q&A
What is a DUNS number?
47
16E 3
The Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) number is a unique nine-digit identification number
provided by Dun & Bradstreet (D&B). The DUNS number is site specific. Therefore, each distinct physical
location of an entity such as branches, divisions and headquarters, may be assigned a DUNS number.
Who needs a DUNS number?
Any institution that wants to submit a grant application to the Federal government. Individual researchers
do not need a DUNS number if they are submitting their application through a research organization.
How do I get a DUNS number?
Dun & Bradstreet have designated a special phone number for Federal grant and cooperative agreement
applicants/prospective applicants. Call the number below between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., local time in the 48
contiguous states and speak to a D&B representative. This process will take approximately 5— 10
minutes and you will receive your DUNS number at the conclusion of the call.
1-866-705-5711
What do I need before I request a DUNS number?
Before you call D&B, you will need the following pieces of information:
• Legal Name
• Headquarters name and address for your organization
• Doing business as (dba) or other name by which your organization is commonly recognized
• Physical address
• Mailing address (if separate from headquarters and/or physical address)
• Telephone number
• Contact name and title
• Number of employees at your physical location
How much does a DUNS number cost?
There is no charge to obtain a DUNS number.
Why does my institution need a DUNS number?
New regulations taking affect Oct. 1, 2003 mandate that a DUNS number be provided on all Federal grant
and cooperative agreement applications. The DUNS number will offer a way for the Federal government
to better match information across all agencies.
How do I see if my institution already has a DUNS number?
Call the toll free number above and indicate that you are a Federal grant and/or cooperative agreement
applicant. D&B will tell you if your organization already has a number assigned. If not, they will ask if you
wish to obtain one.
Should we use the+4 extension to the DUNS number?
Although D&B provides the ability to use a 4-digit extension to the DUNS number, neither D&B nor the
Federal government assign any importance to the extension. Benefits, if any, derived from the extension
will be at your institution only.
Is there anything special that we should do for multi-campus systems?
Multi-campus systems can use what is called a parent DUNS number to aggregate information for the
system as a whole. The main campus will need to be assigned a DUNS number. Then each satellite
campus will need to reference the main campus DUNS number as their parent DUNS when obtaining
their own DUNS number. For NIH grantees, if each campus submits grant applications as a unique
grantee organization, then each campus needs to obtain their own DUNS number.
Does the DUNS number need to be included on individual fellowship applications?
Yes with one exception. It is the DUNS number of the sponsoring institution that should be put on the
application. Individual Kirschstein-NRSA fellowships that propose training at Federal laboratories do not
require a DUNS number.
16E 3
48
What does the DUNS number have to do with the Central Contractor Registry (CCR), soon to be the
Business Partner Network (BPN)?
Registration in the CCR is mandatory for anyone wishing to submit a grant application electronically
through Grants.gov. Your organization will need a DUNS number in order to register in the CCR. The
CCR is the central registry for organizations that have received Federal contracts. If your organization has
received Federal contracts, it is already registered in the CCR, but this is a good opportunity to verify that
your organization information is up to date. For more information about the CCR, please visit the CCR
web site at: www.ccr.gov.
What should we do if our institution has more than 1 DUNS number?
Your institution will need to decide which DUNS number to use for grant application purposes and use
only that number.
Does this apply to non-US organizations?
Yes, this new requirement applies to all types of grantee organizations including foreign, non-profit, for
profit as well as for state and Federal government agencies.
Does this apply to non-competing progress reports?
No. This new requirement applies only to competing applications.
Are there any exceptions to the new DUNS number rules?
Individuals who would personally receive a grant or cooperative agreement award from the Federal
government apart from any business or non-profit organization they may operate are exempt from this
requirement. Also individual Kirschstein-NRSA fellowships that propose training at Federal laboratories
do not require a DUNS number.
Who at my institution is responsible for requesting a DUNS number?
This will vary from institution to institution. This should be done by someone knowledgeable about the
entire structure of your institution and who has the authority to make such decisions. Typically, this
request would come from the finance/accounting department or some other department that conducts
business with a large cross section of the institution.
We are an organization new to Federal grant funding so we obviously need a DUNS number. But we
don't want to be included in any marketing list. What can we do?
Inclusion on a D&B marketing list is optional. If you do not want your name/organization included on this
marketing list, request to be de-listed from D&B's marketing file when you are speaking with a D&B
representative during your DUNS number telephone application.
Who do we contact if we have questions?
If you have questions about applying for a DUNS number, contact the Dun & Bradstreet special phone
number 1-866-705-5771. If you have questions concerning this new Federal-wide requirement, contact
Sandra Swab, Office of Federal Financial Management, 202-395-3993 or via e-mail at
sswab(a�omb.eop.gov.
Substitute Form W-9
For the purpose of this Agreement, a Sub-Recipient is also a Vendor.
The State of Florida requires vendors doing business with the State to submit a Substitute Form W-9. The
purpose of a Form W-9 is to provide a Federal Taxpayer Identification Number(TIN), official entity name,
a business designation (sole proprietorship, corporation, partnership, etc.), and other taxpayer information
16E 3
49
to the State. Submission of a Form W-9 ensures that the State's vendor records and Form 1099 reporting
are accurate. Due to specific State of Florida requirements, the State will not accept the Internal Revenue
Service Form W-9.
Effective March 5, 2012, State of Florida agencies will not be permitted to place orders for goods and
services or make payments to any vendor that does not have a verified Substitute W-9 on file with
the Department of Financial Services. Vendors are required to register and submit a Form W-9 on the
State's Vendor Website at https://flvendor.myfloridacfo.com.

DHS OIG AUDIT ISSUES and ACKNOWEDGEMENT
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Office of Inspector General (OIG) was tasked by
Congress to audit all FEMA projects for fiscal year 2014. A synopsis of those findings are listed
below:
There have been 32 separate instances where Grantees/Recipients or Sub-Recipients did not follow the
prescribed rules to the point that the OIG believed the below listed violations could have nullified the
FEMA/State agreement.
1. Non Competitive contracting practices.
2. Failure to include required contract provisions.
3. Failure to employ the required procedures to ensure that small, minority, and women's owned firms
were all given fair consideration.
4. Improper"cost-plus-a-percentage-of-cost"contracting practices.
The following information comes directly from DHS's OIG Audit Tips for Managing Disaster Related
Project Costs; Report Number OIG-16-109-D dated July 1, 2016. The following may be reasons for
the disallowance or total de-obligation of funding given under the FEMA/State agreement:
1. Use of improper contracting practices.
2. Unsupported costs.
3. Poor project accounting.
4. Duplication of benefits.
5. Excessive equipment charges (applicability may vary with hazard mitigation projects).
6. Excessive labor and fringe benefit charges.
7. Unrelated project costs.
8. Direct Administrative Costs.
9. Failure to meet the requirement to obtain and maintain insurance.
Key Points that must be followed when Administering FEMA Grants:
• Designate one person to coordinate the accumulation of records.
• Establish a separate and distinct account for recording revenue and expenditures, and a separate
identifier for each specific FEMA project.
• Ensure that the final claim for each project is supported by amounts recorded in the accounting
system.
• Ensure that each expenditure is recorded in the accounting books and references supporting
sources of documentation (checks, invoices, etc.)that can be readily retrieved.
16 E 3
58
• Research insurance coverage and seek reimbursement for the maximum amount. Credit the
appropriate FEMA project with that amount.
• Check with your Federal Grant Program Coordinator about availability of funding under other
Federal programs (Federal Highways, Housing and Urban Development, etc.) and ensure that the
final project claim does not include costs that another Federal agency funded or could have funded.
• Ensure that materials taken from existing inventories for use on FEMA projects are documented by
inventory withdrawal and usage records.
• Ensure that expenditures claimed under the FEMA project are reasonable, necessary, directly
benefit the project, and are authorized under the"Scope of Work."
