General guidance for FEMA's EHP process is available on the DHS/FEMA Website at: https://www.fema.gov/grants/guidance-tools/environmental-historic.

The EHP review process must be completed before funds are released to carry out the proposed project; otherwise, DHS/FEMA may not be able to fund the project due to noncompliance with EHP laws, executive orders, regulations, and policies. If ground disturbing activities occur during construction, applicant will monitor ground disturbance, and if any potential archaeological resources are discovered the applicant will immediately cease work in that area and notify the pass -through entity, if applicable, and DHS/FEMA. Applicability of DHS Standard Terms and Conditions to Tribes The DHS Standard Terms and Conditions are a restatement of general requirements imposed upon recipients and flow down to sub -recipients as a matter of law, regulation, or executive order. If the requirement does not apply to Indian tribes or there is a federal law or regulation exempting its application to Indian tribes, then the acceptance by Tribes of, or acquiescence to, DHS Standard Terms and Conditions does not change or alter its inapplicability to an Indian tribe. The execution of grant documents is not intended to change, alter, amend, or impose additional liability or responsibility upon the Tribe where it does not already exist.

Once the notification has been made, any subsequent requests for funds will indicate recipient acceptance of the changes to the award.

Disposition of Equipment Acquired Under the Federal Award For purposes of original or replacement equipment acquired under this award by a non -state recipient or non -state sub -recipients, when that equipment is no longer needed for the original project or program or for other activities currently or previously supported by a federal awarding agency, you must request instructions from FEMA to make proper disposition of the equipment pursuant to 2 C.F.R. section 200.313. State recipients and state sub -recipients must follow the disposition requirements in accordance with state laws and procedures. Article 46 Article 47 Article 48 Article 49 Prior Approval for Modification of Approved Budget Before making any change to the FEMA approved budget for this award, you must request prior written approval from FEMA where required by 2 C.F.R. section 200.308. For purposes of non -construction projects, FEMA is utilizing its discretion to impose an additional restriction under 2 C.F.R. section 200.308(f) regarding the transfer of funds among direct cost categories, programs, functions, or activities. Therefore, for awards with an approved budget where the federal share is greater than the simplified acquisition threshold (currently $250,000), you may not transfer funds among direct cost categories, programs, functions, or activities without prior written approval from FEMA where the cumulative amount of such transfers exceeds or is expected to exceed ten percent (10%) of the total budget FEMA last approved. For purposes of awards that support both construction and non - construction work, FEMA is utilizing its discretion under 2 C.F.R. section 200.308(h)(5) to require the recipient to obtain prior written approval from FEMA before making any fund or budget transfers between the two types of work. You must report any deviations from your FEMA approved budget in the first Federal Financial Report (SF-425) you submit following any budget deviation, regardless of whether the budget deviation requires prior written approval. Indirect Cost Rate 2 C.F.R. section 200.211(b)(15) requires the terms of the award to include the indirect cost rate for the federal award. If applicable, the indirect cost rate for this award is stated in the budget documents or other materials approved by FEMA and included in the award file. Program Income Per 2 CFR section 200.307, recipients are encouraged to earn income to defray program costs where appropriate. Program income means gross income earned by the recipient that is directly generated by a supported activity or earned as a result of the Federal award during the period of performance except as provided in 2 CFR section 200.307 paragraph (f).Program income includes but is not limited to income from fees for services performed, the use or rental of real or personal property acquired under Federal awards, the sale of commodities or items fabricated under a Federal award, and principal and interest on loans made with Federal award funds. Interest earned on advances of Federal funds is not program income. Except as otherwise provided in Federal statutes, regulations, or the terms and conditions of the Federal award, program income does not include rebates, credits, discounts, and interest earned on any of them. When the recipient earns program income under this cooperative agreement, this program income must be added to the Federal award as described by 2 CFR section 200.307(e)(2)). The program income must be used for the purposes and under the conditions of the Federal award. Warehouse Leases Task force management is reminded you may only use cooperative agreement funds to pay for warehouse leases for a twelve-month consecutive period within the overall period of performance and that there is no guarantee of cooperative agreement funding in future years. See Section VI, Cooperative Agreement Funding at pages 3-4. Task forces may write contracts with an available fund's clause or option years for protection. Article 50 Article 51 Article 52 Cooperative Agreement Program authority and responsibility under this cooperative agreement resides with FEMA and the recipient, consistent with the terms of the award, including the Notice of Funding Opportunity. FEMA will work with the recipient to review and refine work plans to ensure program goals and objectives can be effectively accomplished. The recipient and its subrecipients shall not develop or engage in the development of tasks not approved in recipient's application without post -award approval from the FEMA program office, and the issuance of a Grant Amendment from FEMA. FEMA will monitor the project on a continual basis by maintaining ongoing contact with the recipient and will provide input to the program's direction, in consultation with the recipient, as needed. Renovation and Modification Costs Except for minor renovations and modifications of existing warehouse facilities that do not change the footprint of the structure, construction and renovation costs are not allowed. Examples of permissible minor renovation and modification costs include but are not limited to office/storage space build -out reconfiguration, ceilings, loading docks/doors, lighting, HVAC, and security fencing. The National US&R Branch approval is required for reimbursement of renovation and modification costs. The purpose of allowing minor renovation and modification costs is to ensure the equipment cache is maintained as required under the National Urban Search and Rescue Response program. See 42 U.S.C. section 5165f(I)(2); 44 C.F.R. section 208.23(c)(4). Performance Goals The objective of the FY 2023 National Urban Search and Rescue (US&R) Response System (the System) is to provide funding for 28 national task forces staffed and equipped to assist State and local governments to conduct around -the - clock search -and -rescue operations following a Presidentially declared major disaster or emergency under the Stafford Act. FEMA will measure the effectiveness of the Cooperative Agreement program by comparing the input of federal resources used to sustain readiness of the System and local jurisdictions to respond and deploy to no -notice and notice events within the timeframes specified for each particular category of incident and locality upon having received a request from the Authority Having Jurisdiction. In addition, FEMA will evaluate whether the recipient's activities provided for the sustainment and readiness of the System and local jurisdiction in support of OHS Mission 5, Goal 5.1: Enhance National Readiness, which seeks to reduce the vulnerability of individuals and families and mitigate risks to communities. In order to measure performance, FEMA may request information throughout the period of performance and in response to the recipient's final performance report submitted at closeout.

Overview The National Urban Search and Rescue (US&R) Response System (the System) provides funding to ensure adequate management, training, exercise, procurement (vehicle and equipment) and storage and maintenance for the 28 national task forces staffed and equipped to assist state and local governments, tribes and territories to conduct around -the -clock search -and - rescue operations following a Presidentially declared major disaster or emergency under the Stafford Act (e.g., earthquakes, tornadoes, floods, hurricanes, aircraft accidents, hazardous materials spills and catastrophic structure collapses). When deployed, these task forces support State and local emergency responders' efforts by leading the U.S. response to natural and man- made incidents, conducting mass search and rescue operations in the immediate aftermath of and FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 6 incident, and assisting with stabilization and restoration of community lifelines immediately following an incident. In FY22, awards were provided to each of the 28 FEMA US&R Sponsoring Agencies. In CY22, 60 US&R resources responded to four disasters, rescuing, saving, or assisting 1,787 persons and searching or assessing 97,190 structures. This program supports DHS Goal 5: Strengthen Preparedness and Resilience, Objective 5.2: "Respond During Incidents" as provided in the DHS Strategic Plan, Fiscal Years 2020-2024, and Goal 3 of the 2022-2026 FEMA Strategic Plan: Promote and sustain a ready FEMA and prepared nation. b. Objectives The objective of this Cooperative Agreement is to provide for the sustainment and readiness of the System and local jurisdictions, through the funding of administration and management, training, equipment, and storage and maintenance. c. Priorities Program Priorities are as follows: 1. Ensure that System Sponsoring Agency Administrative Organizations manage and administer task force affairs and activities consistent with best practices; to include making available training and exercises that enable task force personnel to safely perform assigned duties in accordance with established FEMA and System standards and guidance. 2. Ensure a state of readiness and enhance operational effectiveness by acquiring and maintaining equipment and tools in accordance with the System's current approved FEMA Equipment Cache List. 3. Provide leased space to meet the office, training site and storage requirements of the System. 4. Optimize standby activities by making available resources to enable catastrophic event planning, mobilization exercises and technical assistance. 5. Provide forums to enable FEMA and System Sponsoring Agency senior leadership coordination and discussion on System strategic issues. 11.

Other Eligibility Criteria/Restrictions a. National Incident Management System (NIMS) Implementation Before allocating any federal preparedness awards, recipients must ensure and maintain adoption and implementation of NIMS. The list of objectives used for progress and achievement reporting is on FEMA's website at https://www.fema.gov/emergency- managers/nims/implementation-training. Emergency management and incident response activities require carefully managed resources (personnel, teams, facilities, equipment, and/or supplies) to meet incident needs. Utilization of the standardized resource management concepts such as typing, credentialing, and inventorying, promote a strong national mutual aid capability needed to support delivery of core capabilities. Additional information on resource management, NIMS resource typing definitions, job titles, and position qualifications is on FEMA's website at https://www.fema.gov/emergency-managers/nims/components. FEMA developed the National Incident Management System Guideline for the National Qualification System to describe national credentialing standards and to provide written guidance regarding the use of those standards. This guideline describes credentialing and typing processes and identifies tools that Federal Emergency Response Officials and emergency managers at all levels of government may use both routinely and to facilitate multijurisdictional coordinated responses. Although state (including territorial), local, tribal, and private sector partners (including nongovernmental organizations) are not required to credential their personnel in accordance with these guidelines, FEMA strongly encourages them to do so to leverage the federal investment in the Federal Information Processing Standards 201 infrastructure and to facilitate interoperability for personnel deployed outside their home jurisdiction. Additional information about NIMS in general is available on FEMA's website at https://www.fema.gov/emergency-managers/nims. 4. Maintenance of Effort (MOE) There is no MOE requirement under this program. 5. Cost Share or Match There is no cost share or match under this program. D. Application and Submission Information 1.

Application Submission Deadline: August 31, 2023 at 5 p.m. ET FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 9 All applications must be received by the established deadline. FEMA's Grants Outcomes System (FEMA GO) automatically records proof of timely submission and the system generates an electronic date/time stamp when FEMA GO successfully receives the application. The individual with the Authorized Organization Representative role that submitted the application will also receive the official date/time stamp and a FEMA GO tracking number in an email serving as proof of their timely submission. For additional information on how an applicant will be notified of application receipt, see the subsection titled "Timely Receipt Requirements and Proof of Timely Submission" in Section D of this NOFO. FEMA will not review applications that are received after the deadline or consider these late applications for funding. FEMA may, however, extend the application deadline on request for any applicant who can demonstrate that good cause exists to justify extending the deadline. Good cause for an extension may include technical problems outside of the applicant's control that prevent submission of the application by the deadline, other exigent or emergency circumstances, or statutory requirements for FEMA to make an award. Applicants experiencing technical problems outside of their control must notify FEMA as soon as possible and before the application deadline Failure to timely notify FEMA of the issue that prevented the timely filing of the application may preclude consideration of the award. "Timely notification" of FEMA means: before the application deadline and within 48 hours after the applicant became aware of the issue. A list of FEMA contacts can be found in Section G of this notice, "DHS Awarding Agency Contact Information." For technical assistance with the FEMA GO system, please contact the FEMA GO Helpdesk at femago0ifema.dhs.gov or (877) 611-4700, Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM — 6:00 PM Eastern Time (ET).

Agreeing to Terms and Conditions of the Award By submitting an application, applicants agree to comply with the requirements of this NOFO and the terms and conditions of the award, should they receive an award. 3. Address to Request Application Package Applications are processed through the FEMA GO system. To access the system, go to https://go.fema.gov/. Hard copies of the funding notice can be downloaded at Grants.gov or obtained via email from the Awarding Office points of contact listed in Section G of this notice, "DHS Awarding Agency Contact Information" or by TTY (800) 462-7585. 4. Requirements: Obtain a Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) and Register in the System for Award Management (SAM) Each applicant, unless they have a valid exception under 2 CFR 25.110, must: 1) Be registered in Sam.Gov before application submission. 2) Provide a valid Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) in its application. 3) Continue to always maintain an active System for Award Management (SAM) registration with current information during the Federal Award process. 5. Steps Required to Obtain a Unique Entity Identifier, Register in the System for Award Management (SAM), and Submit an Application Applying for an award under this program is a multi -step process. Applicants are encouraged to register early as the registration process can take four weeks or more to complete. Therefore, registration should be done in sufficient time to ensure it does not impact your ability to meet required submission deadlines. Please review the table above for estimated deadlines to complete each of the steps listed. Failure of an applicant to comply with any of the required steps before the deadline for submitting an application may disqualify that application from funding. To apply for an award under this program, all applicants must: a. Apply for, update, or verify their Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) number and Employer Identification Number (EIN) from the Internal Revenue Service; FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 11 b. In the application, provide an UEI number; c. Have an account with login.gov; d. Register for, update, or verify their SAM account and ensure the account is active before submitting the application; e. Register in FEMA GO, add the organization to the system, and establish the Authorized Organizational Representative (AOR). The organization's electronic business point of contact (EBiz POC) from the SAM registration may need to be involved in this step. For step-by-step instructions, see https://www.fema.gov/media- librarv/assets/documents/181607; f. Submit the complete application in FEMA GO; and g. Continue to maintain an active SAM registration with current information at all times during which it has an active federal award or an application or plan under consideration by a federal awarding agency. As part of this, applicants must also provide information on an applicant's immediate and highest -level owner and subsidiaries, as well as on all predecessors that have been awarded federal contracts or federal financial assistance within the last three years, if applicable. Applicants are advised that FEMA may not make a federal award until the applicant has complied with all applicable SAM requirements. Therefore, an applicant's SAM registration must be active not only at the time of application, but also during the application review period and when FEMA is ready to make a federal award. Further, as noted above, an applicant's or recipient's SAM registration must remain active for the duration of an active federal award. If an applicant's SAM registration is expired at the time of application, expires during application review, or expires any other time before award, FEMA may determine that the applicant is not qualified to receive a federal award and use that determination as a basis for making a federal award to another applicant. Per 2 C.F.R. § 25.110(c)(2)(iii), if an applicant is experiencing exigent circumstances that prevents it from obtaining an UEI number and completing SAM registration prior to receiving a federal award, the applicant must notify FEMA as soon as possible by contacting askcsid(cifema.dhs.gov and providing the details of the circumstances that prevent completion of these requirements. If FEMA determines that there are exigent circumstances and FEMA has decided to make an award, the applicant will be required to obtain an UEI number, if applicable, and complete SAM registration within 30 days of the federal award date. 6. Electronic Delivery DHS is participating in the Grants.gov initiative to provide the grant community with a single site to find and apply for grant funding opportunities. DHS encourages or requires applicants to submit their applications online through Grants.gov, depending on the funding opportunity. For this funding opportunity, FEMA requires applicants to submit applications through FEMA GO. FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 12 7. How to Register to Apply a. General Instructions: Registering and applying for an award under this program is a multi -step process and requires time to complete. Read the instructions below about registering to apply for FEMA funds. Applicants should read the registration instructions carefully and prepare the information requested before beginning the registration process. Reviewing and assembling the required information before beginning the registration process will alleviate last-minute searches for required information. The registration process can take up to four weeks to complete. To ensure an application meets the deadline, applicants are advised to start the required steps well in advance of their submission. Organizations must have an UEI number, an EIN, an active System for Award Management (SAM) registration and Grants.gov account to apply for grants. b. Obtain an UEI Number: All entities applying for funding, including renewal funding, prior to April 4, 2022, must have a UEI number. Applicants must enter the UEI number in the applicable data entry field on the SF-424 form. For more detailed instructions for obtaining a UEI number, refer to: SAM.gov. c. Obtain Employer Identification Number All entities applying for funding must provide an Employer Identification Number (EIN). The EIN can be obtained from the IRS by visiting: https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small- businesses-self-employed/apply-for-an-employer-identification-number-ein-online. d. Create a login.gov account: Applicants must have a login.gov account in order to register with SAM or update their SAM registration. Applicants can create a login.gov account here: https://secure.login.gov/sign up/enter email?request id=34f19fa8-14a2-438c-8323- a62b99.571fd3. Applicants only have to create a login.gov account once. For applicants that are existing SAM users, use the same email address for the login.gov account as with SAM.gov so that the two accounts can be linked. For more information on the login.gov requirements for SAM registration, refer to: https://www.sam.gov/SAM/pages/public/loginFAQ.jsf. e. Register with SAM: All organizations applying online through Grants.gov must register with SAM. Failure to register with SAM will prevent your organization from applying through Grants.gov. SAM FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 13 registration must be renewed annually. Organizations will be issued a UEI number with the completed SAM registration. For more detailed instructions for registering with SAM, refer to: https://www.grants.gov/web/grants/applicants/organization-registration/step-2-register-with- sam.html. Note: As a new requirement per 2 C.F.R. § 25.200, applicants must also provide the applicant's immediate and highest -level owner, subsidiaries, and predecessors that have been awarded federal contracts or federal financial assistance within the past three years, if applicable. I. ADDITIONAL SAM REMINDERS Existing SAM.gov account holders should check their account to make sure it is "ACTIVE." SAM registration should be completed at the very beginning of the application period and should be renewed annually to avoid being "INACTIVE." Please allow plenty of time before the grant application submission deadline to obtain an UEI number and then to register in SAM. It may be four weeks or more after an applicant submits the SAM registration before the registration is active in SAM, and then it may be an additional 24 hours before FEMA's system recognizes the information. It is imperative that the information applicants provide is correct and current. Please ensure that your organization's name, address, and EIN are up to date in SAM and that the UEI number used in SAM is the same one used to apply for all other FEMA awards. Payment under any FEMA award is contingent on the recipient's having a current SAM registration. II. HELP WITH SAM The SAM quick start guide for new recipient registration and SAM video tutorial for new applicants are tools created by the General Services Administration (GSA) to assist those registering with SAM. If applicants have questions or concerns about a SAM registration, please contact the Federal Support Desk at https://www.fsd.gov/fsd-gov/home.do or call toll free (866) 606-8220. f Register in FEMA GO, Add the Organization to the System, and Establish the AOR: Applicants must register in FEMA GO and add their organization to the system. The organization's electronic business point of contact (EBiz POC) from the SAM registration may need to be involved in this step. For step-by-step instructions, see https://www.fema.gov/media-librarv/assets/documents/181607. Note: FEMA GO will support only the most recent major release of the following browsers: • Google Chrome • Internet Explorer • Mozilla Firefox • Apple Safari • Microsoft Edge FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 14 Users who attempt to use tablet type devices or other browsers may encounter issues with using FEMA GO. 9.

FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 16 14. Funding Restrictions and Allowable Costs All costs charged to awards covered by this notice must comply with the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements at 2 C.F.R. Part 200, unless otherwise indicated in the funding notice, or the terms and conditions of the award. This includes, among other requirements, that costs must be incurred, and products and services must be delivered, within the period of performance of the award. See 2 C.F.R. § 200.403(h) (referring to budget periods, which for FEMA awards is the same as the period of performance). In general, the Cost Principles establish standards for the allowability of costs, provide detailed guidance on the cost accounting treatment of costs as direct or administrative costs, and set forth allowability principles for selected items of cost. More specifically, except as otherwise stated in this notice, the terms and condition of an award, or other program materials, costs charged to awards covered by this notice must be consistent with the Cost Principles for Federal Awards located at 2 C.F.R. Part 200, Subpart E. In order to be allowable, all costs charged to a FEMA award or applied to the cost share must be reasonable in nature and amount and allocable to the particular FEMA award. Additionally, all costs charged to awards must comply with the grant program's applicable statutes, policies, requirements in this notice as well as with the terms and conditions of the award. If FEMA staff identify costs that are inconsistent with any of these requirements, these costs may be disallowed, and FEMA may recover funds as appropriate, consistent with applicable laws, regulations and policies. As part of those requirements, grant recipients and subrecipients may only use federal funds or funds applied to a cost share for the purposes set forth in this notice and the terms and conditions of the award, and those costs must be consistent with the statutory authority for the award. Grant funds may not be used for matching funds for other federal grants/cooperative agreements, lobbying, or intervention in federal regulatory or adjudicatory proceedings. In addition, federal funds may not be used to sue the federal government or any other government entity. a. Prohibitions on Expending FEMA Award Funds for Covered Telecommunications Equipment or Services Recipients and subrecipients of FEMA federal financial assistance are subject to the prohibitions described in section 889 of the John S.

For the purpose of public safety, security of Government facilities, physical security surveillance of critical infrastructure, and other national security purposes, video surveillance and telecommunications equipment produced by Hytera Communications Corporation, Hangzhou Hikvision Digital Technology Company, or Dahua Technology Company (or any subsidiary or affiliate of such entities); iii. Telecommunications or video surveillance services provided by such entities or using such equipment; or iv. Telecommunications or video surveillance equipment or services produced or provided by an entity that the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the Director of National Intelligence or the Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, reasonably believes to be an entity owned or controlled by, or otherwise connected to, the People's Republic of China. Examples of the types of products covered by this prohibition include phones, internet, video surveillance, and cloud servers when produced, provided, or used by the entities listed in the definition of "covered telecommunications equipment or services." See 2 C.F.R. § 200.471. b. Pre Award Costs FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 18 Per 2 C.F.R. § 200.458, pre -award costs are those incurred before the effective date of the Federal award directly pursuant to the negotiation and in anticipation of the Federal award where such costs are necessary for efficient and timely performance of the scope of work. Such costs are allowable only to the extent that they would have been allowable if incurred after the date of the Federal award and only with the written approval from FEMA. To apply for the approval to of pre -award costs (i.e., costs incurred prior to the beginning of the Period of Performance for this Cooperative Agreement) the recipient shall submit a justification as to why the pre -award cost approval is necessary, along with a detailed estimate of costs, in the application. The US&R Branch will review and forward the application to the Grant Programs Directorate for approval. The recipient will then be instructed to include their request and the approval with their application package submission. Once the cooperative agreement is awarded, the recipient may then draw down this funding to cover the pre -award expenses at that time. c. Management and Administration (M&A) Costs Management and Administration costs are allowed under this program, as outlined in 44 C.F.R. § 208.23. Management and Administration costs are activities directly related to implementing the award. M&A costs are not operational costs. They are the necessary costs incurred in direct support of the grant or because of the grant and should be allocated across the entire lifecycle of the grant. Funding levels for M&A costs, if proposed, will be negotiated on a per applicant basis d. Indirect Facilities & Administrative (F&A) Costs Indirect costs are allowable under this program as described in 2 C.F.R. Part 200, including 2 C.F.R. § 200.414. Applicants with a current negotiated indirect cost rate agreement that desire to charge indirect costs to an award must provide a copy of their negotiated indirect cost rate agreement at the time of application. Not all applicants are required to have a current negotiated indirect cost rate agreement. Applicants that are not required by 2 C.F.R. Part 200 to have a negotiated indirect cost rate agreement but are required by 2 C.F.R. Part 200 to develop an indirect cost rate proposal must provide a copy of their proposal at the time of application. Applicants who do not have a current negotiated indirect cost rate agreement (including a provisional rate) and wish to charge the de minimis rate must reach out to the FEMA US&R Grants Management Specialist or other relevant FEMA position for further instructions. Applicants who wish to use a cost allocation plan in lieu of an indirect cost rate must also reach out to the FEMA US&R Grants Management Specialist or other relevant FEMA position for further instructions. e.

No. 116-117 (2020); 41 U.S.C. § 2313; and 2 C.F.R. § 200.206 to review information available through any Office of Management and Budget (OMB) -designated repositories of governmentwide eligibility qualification or financial integrity information, including whether the applicant is suspended or debarred. FEMA may also pose additional questions to the applicant to aid in conducting the pre -award risk review. Therefore, application evaluation criteria may include the following risk -based considerations of the applicant: i. Financial stability. ii. Quality of management systems and ability to meet management standards. iii. History of performance in managing federal award. iv. Reports and findings from audits; and v. Ability to effectively implement statutory, regulatory, or other requirements FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 20 c. Supplemental Financial Integrity Criteria and Review Before making a federal award where the anticipated total federal share will be greater than the simplified acquisition threshold, currently $250,000: FEMA is required to review and consider any information about the applicant, including information on the applicant's immediate and highest -level owner, subsidiaries, and predecessors, if applicable, that is in the designated integrity and performance system accessible through the System for Award Management (SAM), which is currently the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS). ii. An applicant, at its option, may review information in FAPIIS and comment on any information about itself that a federal awarding agency previously entered. FEMA will consider any comments by the applicant, in addition to the other information in FAPIIS, in making a judgment about the applicant's integrity, business ethics, and record of performance under federal awards when completing the review of risk posed by applicants as described in 2 C.F.R. § 200.206. 2. Review and Selection Process FEMA staff, professionally and technically qualified in the System, will evaluate applications and select applicants for funding.

Recipients must accept all conditions in this notice as well as any specific terms and conditions in the Notice of Award to receive an award under this program. FEMA will provide the federal award package to the applicant electronically via FEMA GO. Award packages include an Award Letter, Summary Award Memo, Agreement Articles, and Obligating Document. An email notification of the award package will be sent through FEMA's grant application system to the Authorized Organization Representative (AOR) that submitted the application. FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 21 Recipients must accept their awards no later than 90 days from the award date. The recipient shall notify FEMA of its intent to accept and proceed with work under the award through the FEMA GO system. Funds will remain on hold until the recipient accepts the award through the FEMA GO system and all other conditions of the award have been satisfied or until the award is otherwise rescinded. Failure to accept a grant award within the specified timeframe may result in a loss of funds. 2. Administrative and National Policy Requirements In addition to the requirements of in this section and in this notice, FEMA may place specific terms and conditions on individual awards in accordance with 2 C.F.R. Part 200. a. DHS Standard Terms and Conditions All successful applicants for DHS grant and cooperative agreements are required to comply with DHS Standard Terms and Conditions, which are available online at: DHS Standard Terms and Conditions. The applicable DHS Standard Terms and Conditions will be those in effect at the time the award was made. What terms and conditions will apply for the award will be clearly stated in the award package at the time of award. b. Ensuring the Protection of Civil Rights As the Nation works towards achieving the National Preparedness Goal, it is important to continue to protect the civil rights of individuals. Recipients and subrecipients must carry out their programs and activities, including those related to the building, sustainment, and delivery of core capabilities, in a manner that respects and ensures the protection of civil rights for protected populations. Federal civil rights statutes, such as Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, along with DHS and FEMA regulations, prohibit discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, religion, age, disability, limited English proficiency, or economic status in connection with programs and activities receiving federal financial assistance from FEMA. The DHS Standard Terms and Conditions include a fuller list of the civil rights provisions that apply to recipients. These terms and conditions can be found in the DHS Standard Terms and Conditions. Additional information on civil rights provisions is available at https://www.fema.gov/about/offices/equal-rights/civil-rights. Monitoring and oversight requirements in connection with recipient compliance with federal civil rights laws are also authorized pursuant to 44 C.F.R. Part 7. In accordance with civil rights laws and regulations, recipients and subrecipients must ensure the consistent and systematic fair, just, and impartial treatment of all individuals, including individuals who belong to underserved communities that have been denied such treatment. FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 22 c. Environmental Planning and Historic Preservation (EHP) Compliance As a federal agency, FEMA is required to consider the effects of its actions on the environment and historic properties to ensure that all activities and programs funded by FEMA, including grant -funded projects, comply with federal EHP laws, Executive Orders, regulations, and policies, as applicable. All non -critical new construction or substantial improvement of structures in a Special Flood Hazard Area must, at a minimum, apply the flood elevations of the Federal Flood Risk Management Standard's Freeboard Value Approach unless doing so would cause the project to be unable to meet applicable program cost-effectiveness requirements. All other types of projects may choose to apply the flood elevations of the Federal Flood Risk Management Standard's Freeboard Value Approach. See Executive Order (EO) 14030, Climate -Related Financial Risk and FEMA Policy #-206-21-0003, Partial Implementation of the Federal Flood Risk Management Standard for Hazard Mitigation Assistance Programs (Interim) (fema.gov). Recipients and subrecipients proposing projects that have the potential to impact the environment, including, but not limited to, the construction of communication towers, modification or renovation of existing buildings, structures, and facilities, or new construction including replacement of facilities, must participate in the FEMA EHP review process. The EHP review process involves the submission of a detailed project description along with any supporting documentation requested by FEMA in order to determine whether the proposed project has the potential to impact environmental resources or historic properties. In some cases, FEMA is also required to consult with other regulatory agencies and the public in order to complete the review process. Federal law requires EHP review to be completed before federal funds are released to carry out proposed projects. FEMA may not be able to fund projects that are not incompliance with applicable EHP laws, Executive Orders, regulations, and policies. DHS and FEMA EHP policy is found in directives and instructions available on the FEMA.gov EHP page, the FEMA website page that includes documents regarding EHP responsibilities and program requirements, including implementation of the National Environmental Policy Act and other EHP regulations and Executive Orders. Individual FEMA programs have separate procedures to conduct and document EHP review. Guidance for individual grant programs is available from applicable program offices. d. National Incident Management System (NIMS) Implementation In expending funds under this program, recipients that are state, local, tribal, or territorial governments must ensure and maintain adoption and implementation of NIMS. The state, local, tribal, or territorial government must show adoption of NIMS during any point of the FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 23 period of performance. The list of objectives used for progress and achievement reporting is at https://www.fema.gov/emergency-managers/nims/implementation-training. Emergency management and incident response activities require carefully managed resources (personnel, teams, facilities, equipment, and/or supplies) to meet incident needs. Using standardized resource management concepts such as typing, credentialing, and inventorying, promote a strong national mutual aid capability needed to support delivery of core capabilities. Additional information on resource management, NIMS resource typing definitions, job titles, and position qualifications is on FEMA's website at https://www.fema.gov/emergency-managers/nims/components. FEMA developed the National Incident Management System Guideline for the National Qualification System to describe national credentialing standards and to provide written guidance regarding the use of those standards. This guideline describes credentialing and typing processes and identifies tools which Federal Emergency Response Officials and emergency managers at all levels of government may use both routinely and to facilitate multijurisdictional coordinated responses. Although state, local, tribal, and private sector partners (including nongovernmental organizations) are not required to credential their personnel in accordance with these guidelines, FEMA strongly encourages them to do so to leverage the federal investment in the Federal Information Processing Standards 201 infrastructure and to facilitate interoperability for personnel deployed outside their home jurisdiction. Additional information about NIMS in general is available at https://www.fema.gov/emergency-managers/nims. 3. Reporting Recipients are required to submit various financial and programmatic reports as a condition of award acceptance. Future awards and funds drawdown may be withheld if these reports are delinquent. a. Financial Reporting Requirements I.

When a subrecipient completes all closeout requirements, pass -through entities must promptly complete all closeout actions for subawards in time for the recipient to submit all necessary documentation and information to FEMA during the closeout of the prime award. After the prime award closeout reports have been reviewed and approved by FEMA, a closeout notice will be completed to close out the grant. The notice will indicate the period of performance as closed, list any remaining funds that will be deobligated, and address the requirement of maintaining the grant records for at least three years from the date of the final FFR. The record retention period may be longer, such as due to an audit or litigation, for equipment or real property used beyond the period of performance, or due to other circumstances outlined in 2 C.F.R. § 200.334. The recipient is responsible for refunding to FEMA any balances of unobligated cash that FEMA paid that are not authorized to be retained per 2 C.F.R. § 200.344(d). II. ADMINISTRATIVE CLOSEOUT Administrative closeout is a mechanism for FEMA to unilaterally move forward with closeout of an award using available award information in lieu of final reports from the recipient per 2 C.F.R. § 200.344(h)-(i). It is a last resort available to FEMA, and if FEMA needs to administratively close an award, this may negatively impact a recipient's ability to obtain future funding. This mechanism can also require FEMA to make cash or cost adjustments and ineligible cost determinations based on the information it has, which may result in identifying a debt owed to FEMA by the recipient. When a recipient is not responsive to FEMA's reasonable efforts to collect required reports needed to complete the standard closeout process, FEMA is required under 2 C.F.R. § 200.344(h) to start the administrative closeout process within the regulatory timeframe. FEMA will make at least three written attempts to collect required reports before initiating administrative closeout. If the recipient does not submit all required reports in accordance with 2 C.F.R. § 200.344, this notice, and the terms and conditions of the award, FEMA must proceed to administratively close the award with the information available within one year of the period of performance end date. Additionally, if the recipient does not submit all required reports within one year of the period of performance end date, per 2 C.F.R. § 200.344(i), FEMA must report in FAPIIS the recipient's material failure to comply with the terms and conditions of the award. If FEMA administratively closes an award where no final FFR has been submitted, FEMA uses that administrative closeout date in lieu of the final FFR submission date as the start of the record retention period under 2 C.F.R. § 200.334. In addition, if an award is administratively closed, FEMA may decide to impose remedies for noncompliance per 2 C.F.R. § 200.339, consider this information in reviewing future award applications, or apply special conditions to existing or future awards. d. Additional Reporting Requirements FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 26 DISCLOSING INFORMATION PER 2 C.F.R. § 180.335 This reporting requirement pertains to disclosing information related to government -wide suspension and debarment requirements. Before a recipient enters into a grant award with FEMA, the recipient must notify FEMA if it knows if it or any of the recipient's principals under the award fall under one or more of the four criteria listed at 2 C.F.R. § 180.335: i. Are presently excluded or disqualified; ii. Have been convicted within the preceding three years of any of the offenses listed in 2 C.F.R. § 180.800(a) or had a civil judgment rendered against it or any of the recipient's principals for one of those offenses within that time period; iii. Are presently indicted for or otherwise criminally or civilly charged by a governmental entity (federal, state or local) with commission of any of the offenses listed in 2 C.F.R. § 180.800(a); or iv. Have had one or more public transactions (federal, state, or local) terminated within the preceding three years for cause or default. At any time after accepting the award, if the recipient learns that it or any of its principals falls under one or more of the criteria listed at 2 C.F.R. § 180.335, the recipient must provide immediate written notice to FEMA in accordance with 2 C.F.R. § 180.350. II. REPORTING OF MATTERS RELATED TO RECIPIENT INTEGRITY AND PERFORMANCE Per 2 C.F.R. Part 200, Appendix I § F.3, the additional post -award reporting requirements in 2 C.F.R. Part 200, Appendix XII may apply to applicants who, if upon becoming recipients, have a total value of currently active grants, cooperative agreements, and procurement contracts from all federal awarding agencies that exceeds $10 million for any period of time during the period of performance of an award under this funding opportunity. Recipients that meet these criteria must maintain current information reported in FAPIIS about civil, criminal, or administrative proceedings described in paragraph 2 of Appendix XII at the reporting frequency described in paragraph 4 of Appendix XII. III. SINGLE AUDIT REPORT For audits of fiscal years beginning on or after December 26, 2014, recipients that expend $750,000 or more from all federal funding sources during their fiscal year are required to submit an organization -wide financial and compliance audit report, also known as the single audit report. The audit must be performed in accordance with the requirements of U.S. Government Accountability Office's (GAO) Government Auditing Standards, located at https://www.gao.gov/yellowbook/overview, and the requirements of Subpart F of 2 C.F.R. Part 200, located at http://www.ecfr.;ov/c;i-bin/text-idx?node=sp2.1.200.f. 4. Monitoring and Oversight Per 2 C.F.R. § 200.337, FEMA, through its authorized representatives, has the right, at all reasonable times, to make site visits or conduct desk reviews to review project accomplishments and management control systems to review award progress and to provide any required technical assistance. During site visits or desk reviews, FEMA will review recipients' files related to the award. As part of any monitoring and program evaluation FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 27 activities, recipients must permit FEMA, upon reasonable notice, to review grant -related records and to interview the organization's staff and contractors regarding the program. Recipients must respond in a timely and accurate manner to FEMA requests for information relating to the award. Effective monitoring and oversight help FEMA ensure that recipients use grant funds for their intended purpose(s); verify that projects undertaken are consistent with approved plans; and ensure that recipients make adequate progress toward stated goals and objectives. Additionally, monitoring serves as the primary mechanism to ensure that recipients comply with applicable laws, rules, regulations, program guidance, and requirements. FEMA regularly monitors all grant programs both financially and programmatically in accordance with federal laws, regulations (including 2 C.F.R. Part 200), program guidance, and the terms and conditions of the award. All monitoring efforts ultimately serve to evaluate progress towards grant goals and proactively target and address issues that may threaten grant success during the period of performance. FEMA staff will periodically monitor recipients to ensure that administrative processes, policies and procedures, budgets, and other related award criteria are meeting Federal Government -wide and FEMA regulations. Aside from reviewing quarterly financial and programmatic reports, FEMA may also conduct enhanced monitoring through either desk - based reviews, onsite monitoring visits, or both. Enhanced monitoring will involve the review and analysis of the financial compliance and administrative processes, policies, activities, and other attributes of each federal assistance award, and it will identify areas where the recipient may need technical assistance, corrective actions, or other support. Financial and programmatic monitoring are complementary processes within FEMA's overarching monitoring strategy that function together to ensure effective grants management, accountability, and transparency; validate progress against grant and program goals; and safeguard federal funds against fraud, waste, and abuse. Financial monitoring primarily focuses on statutory and regulatory compliance with administrative grant requirements, while programmatic monitoring seeks to validate and assist in grant progress, targeting issues that may be hindering achievement of project goals and ensuring compliance with the purpose of the grant and grant program. Both monitoring processes are similar in that they feature initial reviews of all open awards, and additional, in-depth monitoring of grants requiring additional attention. Recipients and subrecipients who are pass -through entities are responsible for monitoring their subrecipients in a manner consistent with the terms of the federal award at 2 C.F.R. Part 200, including 2 C.F.R. § 200.332. This includes the pass -through entity's responsibility to monitor the activities of the subrecipient as necessary to ensure that the subaward is used for authorized purposes, in compliance with federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the subaward; and that subaward performance goals are achieved. In terms of overall award management, recipient and subrecipient responsibilities include, but are not limited to: accounting of receipts and expenditures, cash management, maintaining adequate financial records, reporting and refunding expenditures disallowed by FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 28 audits, monitoring if acting as a pass -through entity, or other assessments and reviews, and ensuring overall compliance with the terms and conditions of the award or subaward, as applicable, including the terms of 2 C.F.R. Part 200. G. DHS Awarding Agency Contact Information 1. Contact and Resource Information a.

Additional Information 1. Termination Provisions FEMA may terminate a federal award in whole or in part for one of the following reasons. FEMA and the recipient must still comply with closeout requirements at 2 C.F.R. §§ 200.344-200.345 even if an award is terminated in whole or in part. To the extent that subawards are permitted under this notice, pass -through entities should refer to 2 C.F.R. § 200.340 for additional information on termination regarding subawards. a. Noncompliance If a recipient fails to comply with the terms and conditions of a federal award, FEMA may terminate the award in whole or in part. If the noncompliance can be corrected, FEMA may first attempt to direct the recipient to correct the noncompliance. This may take the form of a Compliance Notification. If the noncompliance cannot be corrected or the recipient is non- responsive, FEMA may proceed with a Remedy Notification, which could impose a remedy for noncompliance per 2 C.F.R. § 200.339, including termination. Any action to terminate based on noncompliance will follow the requirements of 2 C.F.R. §§ 200.341-200.342 as well as the requirement of 2 C.F.R. § 200.340(c) to report in FAPIIS the recipient's material failure to comply with the award terms and conditions. See also the section on Actions to Address Noncompliance in this NOFO. b. With the Consent of the Recipient FEMA may also terminate an award in whole or in part with the consent of the recipient, in which case the parties must agree upon the termination conditions, including the effective date, and in the case of partial termination, the portion to be terminated. c. Notification by the Recipient The recipient may terminate the award, in whole or in part, by sending written notification to FEMA setting forth the reasons for such termination, the effective date, and in the case of partial termination, the portion to be terminated. In the case of partial termination, FEMA may determine that a partially terminated award will not accomplish the purpose of the federal award, so FEMA may terminate the award in its entirety. If that occurs, FEMA will follow the requirements of 2 C.F.R. §§ 200.341-200.342 in deciding to fully terminate the award. FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 30 2. Program Evaluation Recipients and subrecipients are encouraged to incorporate program evaluation activities from the outset of their program design and implementation to meaningfully document and measure their progress towards meeting an agency priority goal(s). Title I of the Foundations for Evidence -Based Policymaking Act of 2018 (Evidence Act), Pub. L. No. 11.5-43.5 (2019) urges federal awarding agencies and federal assistance recipients and subrecipients to use program evaluation as a critical tool to learn, to improve equitable delivery, and to elevate program service and delivery across the program lifecycle. Evaluation means "an assessment using systematic data collection and analysis of one or more programs, policies, and organizations intended to assess their effectiveness and efficiency." Evidence Act § 101 (codified at 5 U.S.C. § 311). Evaluation costs are allowable costs (either as direct or indirect), unless prohibited by statute or regulation. In addition, recipients are required to participate in a DHS-led evaluation if selected, which may be carried out by a third -party on behalf of the Program Office or DHS. By accepting grant funds, recipients agree to participate in the evaluation, which may include analysis of individuals who benefit from the grant, and provide access to program operating personnel and participants, as specified by the evaluator(s) during the award. 3. Period of Performance Extensions Extensions to the period of performance (POP) for this program are allowed. Extensions to the POP identified in the award will only be considered through formal, written requests submitted into FEMA GO. All extensions must contain specific and compelling justifications as to why an extension is required. Recipients are advised to coordinate with the FEMA US&R Grant Specialist as needed when preparing an extension request. All extension requests must address the following: a. The grant program, fiscal year, and award number; b. Reason for the delay —including details of the legal, policy, or operational challenges that prevent the final outlay of awarded funds by the deadline; c. Current status of the activity(ies); d. Approved POP termination date and new project completion date; e. Amount of funds drawn down to date; f. Remaining available funds, both federal and, if applicable, non-federal; g. Budget outlining how remaining federal and, if applicable, non-federal funds will be expended; h. Plan for completion, including milestones and timeframes for achieving each milestone and the position or person responsible for implementing the plan for completion; and i. Certification that the activity(ies) will be completed within the extended POP without any modification to the original statement of work, as described in the application or other relevant document and as approved by FEMA. Extension requests will be granted only due to compelling legal, policy, or operational challenges. Extension requests will only be considered for the following reasons: FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 3 1 • Contractual commitments by the recipient or subrecipient with vendors prevent completion of the project, including delivery of equipment or services, within the existing POP; • The project must undergo a complex environmental review that cannot be completed within the existing POP; • Projects are long-term by design, and therefore acceleration would compromise core programmatic goals; or • Where other special or extenuating circumstances exist. Recipients should submit all proposed extension requests to FEMA for review and approval at least 10 days before the POP ends to allow sufficient processing time. 4. Disability Integration Pursuant to Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, recipients of FEMA financial assistance must ensure that their programs and activities do not discriminate against other qualified individuals with disabilities. Grant recipients should engage with the whole community to advance individual and community preparedness and to work as a nation to build and sustain resilience. In doing so, recipients are encouraged to consider the needs of individuals with disabilities into the activities and projects funded by the grant. FEMA expects that the integration of the needs of people with disabilities will occur at all levels, including planning; alerting, notification, and public outreach; training; purchasing of equipment and supplies; protective action implementation; and exercises/drills. The following are examples that demonstrate the integration of the needs of people with disabilities in carrying out FEMA awards: • Include representatives of organizations that work with/for people with disabilities on planning committees, work groups and other bodies engaged in development and implementation of the grant programs and activities. • Hold all activities related to the grant in locations that are accessible to persons with physical disabilities to the extent practicable. • Acquire language translation services, including American Sign Language, that provide public information across the community and in shelters. • Ensure shelter -specific grant funds are in alignment with FEMA's Guidance on Planning for Integration of Functional Needs Support Services in General Population Shelters. • If making alterations to an existing building to a primary function area utilizing federal funds, complying with the most recent codes and standards and making path of travel to the primary function area accessible to the greatest extent possible. • Implement specific procedures used by public transportation agencies that include evacuation and passenger communication plans and measures for individuals with disabilities. FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 32 • Identify, create, and deliver training to address any training gaps specifically aimed toward whole -community preparedness. Include and interact with individuals with disabilities, aligning with the designated program capability. • Establish best practices in inclusive planning and preparedness that consider physical access, language access, and information access. Examples of effective communication access include providing auxiliary aids and services such as sign language interpreters, Computer Aided Real-time Translation (CART), and materials in Braille or alternate formats. FEMA grant recipients can fund projects towards the resiliency of the whole community, including people with disabilities, such as training, outreach and safety campaigns, provided that the project aligns with this funding notice and the terms and conditions of the award. 5. Conflicts of Interest in the Administration of Federal Awards or Subawards For conflicts of interest under grant -funded procurements and contracts, refer to the section on Procurement Integrity in this notice and 2 C.F.R. §§ 200.317 — 200.327. To eliminate and reduce the impact of conflicts of interest in the subaward process, recipients and pass -through entities must follow their own policies and procedures regarding the elimination or reduction of conflicts of interest when making subawards. Recipients and pass -through entities are also required to follow any applicable federal and state, local, tribal, or territorial (SLTT) statutes or regulations governing conflicts of interest in the making of subawards. The recipient or pass -through entity must disclose to the respective Program Analyst or Program Manager, in writing, any real or potential conflict of interest that may arise during the administration of the federal award, as defined by the federal or SLTT statutes or regulations or their own existing policies, within five days of learning of the conflict of interest. Similarly, subrecipients, whether acting as subrecipients or as pass -through entities, must disclose any real or potential conflict of interest to the recipient or next -level pass - through entity as required by the recipient or pass -through entity's conflict of interest policies, or any applicable federal or SLTT statutes or regulations. Conflicts of interest may arise during the process of FEMA making a federal award in situations where an employee, officer, or agent, any members of his or her immediate family, his or her partner has a close personal relationship, a business relationship, or a professional relationship, with an applicant, sub -applicant, recipient, subrecipient, or FEMA employees. 6. Procurement Integrity Through audits conducted by the DHS Office of Inspector General (OIG) and FEMA grant monitoring, findings have shown that some FEMA recipients have not fully adhered to the proper procurement requirements at 2 C.F.R. §§ 200.317 — 200.327 when spending grant funds. Anything less than full compliance with federal procurement requirements jeopardizes the integrity of the grant as well as the grant program. To assist with determining whether an action is a procurement or instead a subaward, please consult 2 C.F.R. § 200.331. For detailed guidance on the federal procurement standards, recipients and subrecipients should FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 33 refer to various materials issued by FEMA's Procurement Disaster Assistance Team (PDAT), such as the PDAT Field Manual and Contract Provisions Guide. Additional resources, including an upcoming trainings schedule can be found on the PDAT Website: https://www.fema.gov/grants/procurement. The below highlights the federal procurement requirements for FEMA recipients when procuring goods and services with federal grant funds. FEMA will include a review of recipients' procurement practices as part of the normal monitoring activities. All procurement activity must be conducted in accordance with federal procurement standards at 2 C.F.R. §§ 200.317 — 200.327. Select requirements under these standards are listed below. The recipient and any of its subrecipients must comply with all requirements, even if they are not listed below. Under 2 C.F.R. § 200.317, when procuring property and services under a federal award, states (including territories) must follow the same policies and procedures they use for procurements from their non-federal funds; additionally, states must now follow 2 C.F.R. § 200.321 regarding socioeconomic steps, 200.322 regarding domestic preferences for procurements, 200.323 regarding procurement of recovered materials, and 2 C.F.R. § 200.327 regarding required contract provisions. All other non-federal entities, such as tribes (collectively, non -state entities), must have and use their own documented procurement procedures that reflect applicable SLTT laws and regulations, provided that the procurements conform to applicable federal law and the standards identified in 2 C.F.R. Part 200. These standards include, but are not limited to, providing for full and open competition consistent with the standards of 2 C.F.R. § 200.319 and the required procurement methods at § 200.320. a. Important Changes to Procurement Standards in 2 C.F.R. Part 200 OMB recently updated various parts of Title 2 of the Code of Federal Regulations, among them, the procurement standards. States are now required to follow the socioeconomic steps in soliciting small and minority businesses, women's business enterprises, and labor surplus area firms per 2 C.F.R. § 200.321. All non-federal entities should also, to the greatest extent practicable under a federal award, provide a preference for the purchase, acquisition, or use of goods, products, or materials produced in the United States per 2 C.F.R. § 200.322. More information on OMB's revisions to the federal procurement standards can be found in Purchasing Under a FEMA Award: OMB Revisions Fact Sheet. The recognized procurement methods in 2 C.F.R. § 200.320 have been reorganized into informal procurement methods, which include micro -purchases and small purchases; formal procurement methods, which include sealed bidding and competitive proposals; and noncompetitive procurements. The federal micro -purchase threshold is currently $10,000, and non -state entities may use a lower threshold when using micro -purchase procedures under a FEMA award. If a non -state entity wants to use a micro -purchase threshold higher than the federal threshold, it must follow the requirements of 2 C.F.R. § 200.320(a)(1)(iii)- (v). The federal simplified acquisition threshold is currently $250,000, and a non -state entity may use a lower threshold but may not exceed the federal threshold when using small FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 34 purchase procedures under a FEMA award. See 2 C.F.R. § 200.1 (citing the definition of simplified acquisition threshold from 48 C.F.R. Part 2, Subpart 2.1). See 2 C.F.R. §§ 200.216, 200.471, and Appendix II as well as section D.13.a of the funding notice regarding prohibitions on covered telecommunications equipment or services. b. Competition and Conflicts of Interest Among the requirements of 2 C.F.R. § 200.319(b) applicable to all non-federal entities other than states, in order to ensure objective contractor performance and eliminate unfair competitive advantage, contractors that develop or draft specifications, requirements, statements of work, or invitations for bids or requests for proposals must be excluded from competing for such procurements. FEMA considers these actions to be an organizational conflict of interest and interprets this restriction as applying to contractors that help a non- federal entity develop its grant application, project plans, or project budget. This prohibition also applies to the use of former employees to manage the grant or carry out a contract when those former employees worked on such activities while they were employees of the non- federal entity. Under this prohibition, unless the non-federal entity solicits for and awards a contract covering both development and execution of specifications (or similar elements as described above), and this contract was procured in compliance with 2 C.F.R. §§ 200.317 — 200.327, federal funds cannot be used to pay a contractor to carry out the work if that contractor also worked on the development of those specifications. This rule applies to all contracts funded with federal grant funds, including pre -award costs, such as grant writer fees, as well as post - award costs, such as grant management fees. Additionally, some of the situations considered to be restrictive of competition include, but are not limited to: • Placing unreasonable requirements on firms for them to qualify to do business; • Requiring unnecessary experience and excessive bonding; • Noncompetitive pricing practices between firms or between affiliated companies; • Noncompetitive contracts to consultants that are on retainer contracts; • Organizational conflicts of interest; • Specifying only a "brand name" product instead of allowing "an equal" product to be offered and describing the performance or other relevant requirements of the procurement; and • Any arbitrary action in the procurement process. Per 2 C.F.R. § 200.319(c), non-federal entities other than states must conduct procurements in a manner that prohibits the use of statutorily or administratively imposed SLTT geographical preferences in the evaluation of bids or proposals, except in those cases where applicable federal statutes expressly mandate or encourage geographic preference. Nothing in this section preempts state licensing laws. When contracting for architectural and engineering services, geographic location may be a selection criterion provided its application leaves an appropriate number of qualified firms, given the nature and size of the project, to compete for the contract. FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 35 Under 2 C.F.R. § 200.318(c)(1), non-federal entities other than states are required to maintain written standards of conduct covering conflicts of interest and governing the actions of their employees engaged in the selection, award, and administration of contracts. No employee, officer, or agent may participate in the selection, award, or administration of a contract supported by a federal award if he or she has a real or apparent conflict of interest. Such conflicts of interest would arise when the employee, officer or agent, any member of his or her immediate family, his or her partner, or an organization that employs or is about to employ any of the parties indicated herein, has a financial or other interest in or a tangible personal benefit from a firm considered for a contract. The officers, employees, and agents of the non-federal entity may neither solicit nor accept gratuities, favors, or anything of monetary value from contractors or parties to subcontracts. However, non-federal entities may set standards for situations in which the financial interest is not substantial, or the gift is an unsolicited item of nominal value. The standards of conduct must provide for disciplinary actions to be applied for violations of such standards by officers, employees, or agents of the non-federal entity. Under 2 C.F.R. 200.318(c)(2), if the recipient or subrecipient (other than states) has a parent, affiliate, or subsidiary organization that is not a state, local, tribal, or territorial government, the non-federal entity must also maintain written standards of conduct covering organizational conflicts of interest. In this context, organizational conflict of interest means that because of a relationship with a parent company, affiliate, or subsidiary organization, the non-federal entity is unable or appears to be unable to be impartial in conducting a procurement action involving a related organization. The non-federal entity must disclose in writing any potential conflicts of interest to FEMA or the pass -through entity in accordance with applicable FEMA policy. c. Supply Schedules and Purchasing Programs Generally, a non-federal entity may seek to procure goods or services from a federal supply schedule, state supply schedule, or group purchasing agreement. GENERAL SERVICES ADMINISTRATION SCHEDULES States, tribes, and local governments, and any instrumentality thereof (such as local education agencies or institutions of higher education) may procure goods and services from a General Services Administration (GSA) schedule. GSA offers multiple efficient and effective procurement programs for state, tribal, and local governments, and instrumentalities thereof, to purchase products and services directly from pre -vetted contractors. The GSA Schedules (also referred to as the Multiple Award Schedules and the Federal Supply Schedules) are long-term government -wide contracts with commercial firms that provide access to millions of commercial products and services at volume discount pricing. Information about GSA programs for states, tribes, and local governments, and instrumentalities thereof, can be found at https://www.gsa.gov/resources-for/programs-for- state-and-local-governments and https://www.gsa.gov/buying-selling/purchasing- programs/gsa-schedules/schedule-buyers/state-and-local-governments. FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 36 For tribes, local governments, and their instrumentalities that purchase off of a GSA schedule, this will satisfy the federal requirements for full and open competition provided that the recipient follows the GSA ordering procedures; however, tribes, local governments, and their instrumentalities will still need to follow the other rules under 2 C.F.R. §§ 200.317 — 200.327, such as solicitation of minority businesses, women's business enterprises, small businesses, or labor surplus area firms (§ 200.321), domestic preferences (§ 200.322), contract cost and price (§ 200.324), and required contract provisions (§ 200.327 and Appendix II). II. OTHER SUPPLY SCHEDULES AND PROGRAMS For non-federal entities other than states, such as tribes, local governments, and nonprofits, that want to procure goods or services from a state supply schedule, cooperative purchasing program, or other similar program, in order for such procurements to be permissible under federal requirements, the following must be true: • The procurement of the original contract or purchasing schedule and its use by the non-federal entity complies with state and local law, regulations, and written procurement procedures; • The state or other entity that originally procured the original contract or purchasing schedule entered into the contract or schedule with the express purpose of making it available to the non-federal entity and other similar types of entities; • The contract or purchasing schedule specifically allows for such use, and the work to be performed for the non-federal entity falls within the scope of work under the contract as to type, amount, and geography; • The procurement of the original contract or purchasing schedule complied with all the procurement standards applicable to a non-federal entity other than states under at 2 C.F.R. §§ 200.317 — 200.327. • With respect to the use of a purchasing schedule, the non-federal entity must follow ordering procedures that adhere to applicable state, tribal, and local laws and regulations and the minimum requirements of full and open competition under 2 C.F.R. Part 200. If a non-federal entity other than a state seeks to use a state supply schedule, cooperative purchasing program, or other similar type of arrangement, FEMA recommends the recipient discuss the procurement plans with its FEMA US&R Grant Specialist. d. Procurement Documentation Per 2 C.F.R. § 200.318(i), non-federal entities other than states and territories are required to maintain and retain records sufficient to detail the history of procurement covering at least the rationale for the procurement method, selection of contract type, contractor selection or rejection, and the basis for the contract price. States and territories are encouraged to maintain and retain this information as well and are reminded that in order for any cost to be allowable, it must be adequately documented per 2 C.F.R. § 200.403(g). Examples of the types of documents that would cover this information include but are not limited to: FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 37 • Solicitation documentation, such as requests for quotes, invitations for bids, or requests for proposals; • Responses to solicitations, such as quotes, bids, or proposals; • Pre -solicitation independent cost estimates and post -solicitation cost/price analyses on file for review by federal personnel, if applicable; • Contract documents and amendments, including required contract provisions; and • Other documents required by federal regulations applicable at the time a grant is awarded to a recipient. Additional information on required procurement records can be found on pages 24-26 of the PDAT Field Manual. 7. Financial Assistance Programs for Infrastructure a. Build America, Buy America Act Recipients and subrecipients must comply with the Build America, Buy America Act (BABAA), which was enacted as part of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act §§ 70901-70927, Pub. L. No. 117-58 (2021); and Executive Order 14005, Ensuring the Future is Made in All of America by All of America's Workers. See also Office of Management and Budget (OMB), Memorandum M-22-11, Initial Implementation Guidance on Application of Buy America Preference in Federal Financial Assistance Programs for Infrastructure. None of the funds provided under this program may be used for a project for infrastructure unless the iron and steel, manufactured products, and construction materials used in that infrastructure are produced in the United States. The Buy America preference only applies to articles, materials, and supplies that are consumed in, incorporated into, or affixed to an infrastructure project. As such, it does not apply to tools, equipment, and supplies, such as temporary scaffolding, brought to the construction site and removed at or before the completion of the infrastructure project. Nor does a Buy America preference apply to equipment and furnishings, such as movable chairs, desks, and portable computer equipment, that are used at or within the finished infrastructure project but are not an integral part of the structure or permanently affixed to the infrastructure project. To see whether a particular FEMA federal financial assistance program is considered an infrastructure program and thus required to include a Buy America preference, please see Programs and Definitions: Build America, Buy America Act FEMA.gov. b. Waivers When necessary, recipients (and subrecipients through their pass -through entity) may apply for, and FEMA may grant, a waiver from these requirements. A waiver of the domestic content procurement preference may be granted by the agency awarding official if FEMA determines that: FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 38 • Applying the domestic content procurement preference would be inconsistent with the public interest. • The types of iron, steel, manufactured products, or construction materials are not produced in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available quantities or of a satisfactory quality. • The inclusion of iron, steel, manufactured products, or construction materials produced in the United States will increase the cost of the overall project by more than 25%. For FEMA awards, the process for requesting a waiver from the Buy America preference requirements can be found on FEMA's website at: "Buy America" Preference in FEMA Financial Assistance Programs for Infrastructure FEMA.gov. c. Definitions Construction materials: an article, material, or supply —other than an item primarily of iron or steel; a manufactured product; cement and cementitious materials; aggregates such as stone, sand, or gravel; or aggregate binding agents or additives —that is or consists primarily of non-ferrous metals, plastic and polymer -based products (including polyvinylchloride, composite building materials, and polymers used in fiber optic cables), glass (including optic glass), lumber, paint, and drywall. Domestic content procurement preference: Means all iron and steel used in the project are produced in the United States; the manufactured products used in the project are produced in the United States; or the construction materials used in the project are produced in the United States. Federal financial assistance: Generally defined in 2 C.F.R. § 200.1 and includes all expenditures by a federal agency to a non-federal entity for an infrastructure project, except that it does not include expenditures for assistance authorities relating to major disasters or emergencies under sections 402, 403, 404, 406, 408, or 502 of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act relating to a major disaster or emergency declared under section 401 or 501, respectively, or pre and post disaster or emergency response expenditures. Infrastructure: infrastructure projects which serve a public function, including at a minimum, the structures, facilities, and equipment for, in the United States, roads, highways, and bridges; public transportation; dams, ports, harbors, and other maritime facilities; intercity passenger and freight railroads; freight and intermodal facilities; airports; water systems, including drinking water and wastewater systems; electrical transmission facilities and systems; utilities; broadband infrastructure; and buildings and real property; and structures, facilities, and equipment that generate, transport, and distribute energy. Produced in the United States means the following for: • Iron and steel: All manufacturing processes, from the initial melting stage through the application of coatings, occurred in the United States. FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 39 • Manufactured products: The product was manufactured in the United States, and the cost of the components of the manufactured product that are mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States is greater than 55 percent of the total cost of all components of the manufactured product, unless another standard for determining the minimum amount of domestic content of the manufactured product has been established under applicable law or regulation. • Construction Materials: All manufacturing processes for the construction material occurred in the United States. Project: is any activity related to the construction, alteration, maintenance, or repair of infrastructure in the United States. 8. Record Retention a. Record Retention Period Financial records, supporting documents, statistical records, and all other non -Federal entity records pertinent to a Federal award generally must be maintained for at least three years from the date the final FFR is submitted. See 2 C.F.R. § 200.334. Further, if the recipient does not submit a final FFR and the award is administratively closed, FEMA uses the date of administrative closeout as the start of the general record retention period. The record retention period may be longer than three years or have a different start date in certain cases. These include: • Records for real property and equipment acquired with Federal funds must be retained for three years after final disposition of the property. See 2 C.F.R. § 200.334(c). • If any litigation, claim, or audit is started before the expiration of the three-year period, the records must be retained until all litigation, claims, or audit findings involving the records have been resolved and final action taken. See 2 C.F.R. § 200.334(a). • The record retention period will be extended if the non-federal entity is notified in writing of the extension by FEMA, the cognizant or oversight agency for audit, or the cognizant agency for indirect costs, or pass -through entity. See 2 C.F.R. § 200.334(b). • Where FEMA requires recipients to report program income after the period of performance ends, the program income record retention period begins at the end of the recipient's fiscal year in which program income is earned. See 2 C.F.R. § 200.334(e). • For indirect cost rate computations and proposals, cost allocation plans, or 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), the start of the record retention period depends on whether the indirect cost rate documents were submitted for negotiation. If the indirect cost rate documents were submitted for negotiation, the record retention period begins from the date those documents were submitted for negotiation. If indirect cost rate documents were not submitted for negotiation, the record retention period begins at the end of the FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 40 recipient's fiscal year or other accounting period covered by that indirect cost rate. See 2 C.F.R. § 200.334(0. b. Types of Records to Retain FEMA requires that non-federal entities maintain the following documentation for federally funded purchases: • Specifications; • Solicitations; • Competitive quotes or proposals; • Basis for selection decisions; • Purchase orders; • Contracts; • Invoices; and • Canceled checks Non-federal entities should keep detailed records of all transactions involving the grant. FEMA may at any time request copies of any relevant documentation and records, including purchasing documentation along with copies of cancelled checks for verification. See, e.g., 2 C.F.R. §§ 200.318(i), 200.334, 200.337. In order for any cost to be allowable, it must be adequately documented per 2 C.F.R. § 200.403(g). Non-federal entities who fail to fully document all purchases may find their expenditures questioned and subsequently disallowed. 9. National Incident Management System (NIMS) Implementation Incident management activities require carefully managed resources (personnel, teams, facilities, equipment, and supplies). NIMS defines a national, interoperable approach for sharing resources, coordinating, and managing incidents, and communicating information. Incident management refers to how incidents are managed across all homeland security activities, including prevention, protection, mitigation, response, and recovery. Utilization of the standardized resource management concepts such as typing, credentialing, and inventorying promote a strong national mutual aid capability needed to support delivery of core capabilities. Recipients should manage resources purchased or supported with FEMA grant funding according to NIMS resource management guidance. Additional information on resource management and NIMS resource typing definitions and job titles/position qualifications is on FEMA's website at https://www.fema.gov/emergency- managers/nims/components. Additional information about NIMS in general is available at https://www.fema.gov/emergency-managers/nims. 10. Actions to Address Noncompliance Non-federal entities receiving financial assistance funding from FEMA are required to comply with requirements in the terms and conditions of their awards or subawards, including the terms set forth in applicable federal statutes, regulations, funding notices and policies. Throughout the award lifecycle or even after an award has been closed, FEMA or FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 41 the pass -through entity may discover potential or actual noncompliance on the part of a recipient or subrecipient. This potential or actual noncompliance may be discovered through routine monitoring, audits, closeout, or reporting from various sources. In the case of any potential or actual noncompliance, FEMA may place special conditions on an award per 2 C.F.R. §§ 200.208 and 200.339, FEMA may place a hold on funds until the matter is corrected, or additional information is provided per 2 C.F.R. § 200.339, or it may do both. Similar remedies for noncompliance with certain federal civil rights laws are authorized pursuant to 44 C.F.R. Parts 7 and 19. In the event the noncompliance is not able to be corrected by imposing additional conditions or the recipient or subrecipient refuses to correct the matter, FEMA might take other remedies allowed under 2 C.F.R. § 200.339. These remedies include actions to disallow costs, recover funds, wholly or partly suspend or terminate the award, initiate suspension and debarment proceedings, withhold further federal awards, or take other remedies that may be legally available. For further information on termination due to noncompliance, see the section on Termination Provisions in the funding notice. FEMA may discover and take action on noncompliance even after an award has been closed. The closeout of an award does not affect FEMA's right to disallow costs and recover funds as long the action to disallow costs takes place during the record retention period. See 2 C.F.R. §§ 200.334, 200.345(a). Closeout also does not affect the obligation of the non-federal entity to return any funds due as a result of later refunds, corrections, or other transactions. 2 C.F.R. § 200.345(a)(2). The types of funds FEMA might attempt to recover include, but are not limited to, improper payments, cost share reimbursements, program income, interest earned on advance payments, or equipment disposition amounts. FEMA may seek to recover disallowed costs through a Notice of Potential Debt Letter, a Remedy Notification, or other letter. The document will describe the potential amount owed, the reason why FEMA is recovering the funds, the recipient's appeal rights, how the amount can be paid, and the consequences for not appealing or paying the amount by the deadline. If the recipient neither appeals nor pays the amount by the deadline, the amount owed will become final. Potential consequences if the debt is not paid in full or otherwise resolved by the deadline include the assessment of interest, administrative fees, and penalty charges; administratively offsetting the debt against other payable federal funds; and transferring the debt to the U.S. Department of the Treasury for collection. FEMA notes the following common areas of noncompliance for FEMA's grant programs: • Insufficient documentation and lack of record retention; • Failure to follow the procurement under grants requirements; • Failure to submit closeout documents in a timely manner; • Failure to follow EHP requirements; and • Failure to comply with the POP deadline. FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 42 11. Audits FEMA grant recipients are subject to audit oversight from multiple entities including the DHS OIG, the GAO, the pass -through entity, or independent auditing firms for single audits, and may cover activities and costs incurred under the award. Auditing agencies such as the DHS OIG, the GAO, and the pass -through entity (if applicable), and FEMA in its oversight capacity, must have access to records pertaining to the FEMA award. Recipients and subrecipients must retain award documents for at least three years from the date the final FFR is submitted, and even longer in many cases subject to the requirements of 2 C.F.R. § 200.334. In the case of administrative closeout, documents must be retained for at least three years from the date of closeout, or longer subject to the requirements of 2 C.F.R. § 200.334. If documents are retained longer than the required retention period, the DHS OIG, the GAO, and the pass -through entity, as well as FEMA in its oversight capacity, have the right to access these records as well. See 2 C.F.R. §§ 200.334, 200.337. Additionally, non-federal entities must comply with the single audit requirements at 2 C.F.R. Part 200, Subpart F. Specifically, non-federal entities, other than for -profit subrecipients, that expend $750,000 or more in federal awards during their fiscal year must have a single or program -specific audit conducted for that year in accordance with Subpart F. 2 C.F.R. § 200.501. A single audit covers all federal funds expended during a fiscal year, not just FEMA funds. The cost of audit services may be allowable per 2 C.F.R. § 200.425, but non-federal entities must select auditors in accordance with 2 C.F.R. § 200.509, including following the proper procurement procedures. For additional information on single audit reporting requirements, see section F of this NOFO under the header "Single Audit Report" within the subsection "Additional Reporting Requirements" or other applicable document. The objectives of single audits are to: • Determine whether financial statements conform to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP); • Determine whether the schedule of expenditures of federal awards is presented fairly; • Understand, assess, and test the adequacy of internal controls for compliance with major programs; and • Determine whether the entity complied with applicable laws, regulations, and contracts or grants. For single audits, the auditee is required to prepare financial statements reflecting its financial position, a schedule of federal award expenditures, and a summary of the status of prior audit findings and questioned costs. The auditee also is required to follow up and take appropriate corrective actions on new and previously issued but not yet addressed audit findings. The auditee must prepare a corrective action plan to address the new audit findings. 2 C.F.R. §§ 200.508, 200.510, 200.511. Non-federal entities must have an audit conducted, either single or program -specific, of their financial statements and federal expenditures annually or biennially pursuant to 2 C.F.R. § 200.504. Non-federal entities must also follow the information submission requirements of 2 C.F.R. § 200.512, including submitting the audit information to the Federal Audit FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top 43 Clearinghouse within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor's report(s) or nine months after the end of the audit period. The audit information to be submitted include the data collection form described at 2 C.F.R. § 200.512(c) and Appendix X to 2 C.F.R. Part 200 as well as the reporting package described at 2 C.F.R. § 200.512(b). The non-federal entity must retain one copy of the data collection form and one copy of the reporting package for three years from the date of submission to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse. 2 C.F.R. § 200.512; see also 2 C.F.R. § 200.517 (setting requirements for retention of documents by the auditor and access to audit records in the auditor's possession). FEMA, the DHS OIG, the GAO, and the pass -through entity (if applicable), as part of monitoring or as part of an audit, may review a non-federal entity's compliance with the single audit requirements. In cases of continued inability or unwillingness to have an audit conducted in compliance with 2 C.F.R. Part 200, Subpart F, FEMA and the pass -through entity, if applicable, are required to take appropriate remedial action under 2 C.F.R. § 200.339 for noncompliance, pursuant to 2 C.F.R. § 200.505. 12. Payment Information FEMA uses the Direct Deposit/Electronic Funds Transfer (DD/EFT) method of payment to recipients. Payment requests are submitted through FEMA GO. 13. Whole Community Preparedness Preparedness is a shared responsibility that calls for the involvement of everyone —not just the government —in preparedness efforts. By working together, everyone can help keep the nation safe from harm and help keep it resilient when struck by hazards, such as natural disasters, acts of terrorism, and pandemics. Whole Community includes: • Individuals and families, including those with access and functional needs; • Businesses; • Faith -based and community organizations; • Nonprofit groups; • Schools and academia; • Media outlets; and • All levels of government, including state, local, tribal, territorial, and federal partners The phrase "Whole Community" often appears in preparedness materials, as it is one of the guiding principles. It means two things: 1. Involving people in the development of national preparedness documents. 2. Ensuring their roles and responsibilities are reflected in the content of the materials. 14.

Summary of Deliverables and Points of Contact FY 2023 USR NOFO Back to the Top Appendix A US&R Task Force FY 2023 Readiness Cooperative Agreement Statement of Work A. Purpose The U. S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) are accountable to provide support and funding for the maintenance and readiness of the National Urban Search and Rescue (US&R) Response System (the System). The purpose of this Readiness Cooperative Agreement is to support the continued development and maintenance of a national urban search and rescue capability. Specifically, this agreement provides a mechanism for distribution of Cooperative Agreement funding for certain purposes in preparation of a Federal US&R capability for disaster response. This Cooperative Agreement allows each Sponsoring Agency of a System US&R task force the opportunity to maintain a high standard and condition of operational readiness and includes guidance on key areas for task force management to focus on continued preparedness efforts. This Cooperative Agreement provides direction to the System task force's Sponsoring Agency for the use of funding to provide administrative and program management, training, support, equipment cache procurement, maintenance, and storage. B. Background FEMA, in cooperation with other federal, state and local agencies created the System to provide a national US&R capability that provides lifesaving resources to survivors of structural collapse. When the System was developed in 1990, there was limited capability in only a few states to perform this mission and no resources were available for a coordinated national response. In 1992, the Federal Response Plan (FRP) was published by FEMA and coordinated activities with 26 federal agencies. The federal government's response to disasters was classified into 12 Emergency Support Functions (ESFs). ESF #9 (Search and Rescue) was established with FEMA as the Primary Agency. FEMA maintains a national consensus on standard operating procedures, organizational structure, equipment, training, and exercise requirements. Currently, 28 state and local Sponsoring Agencies in 19 states participate in the System by making their task forces available for national disaster response. FEMA had no organic heavy rescue capability of its own and realized the best sources for US&R knowledge and skills reside at the state and local level. The System was developed and continues as a federal —state —local partnership, based on a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) and individual Response and Readiness Cooperative Agreements. While the MOA provides the basic operational "Agreement" between FEMA, the state and Sponsoring Agency, the individual Readiness Cooperative Agreement provides the mechanism for distributing federal funds to the Sponsoring Agencies of the System's 28 US&R task forces for continued readiness efforts. In December 2004, the National Response Plan (NRP) was published by DHS which integrated the Federal Response Plan. The NRP was then updated in January 2008 and is now referred to as the National Response Framework (NRF). At that time, ESF#9 was expanded to encompass urban, water -borne, and land -based search and rescue environments. C. FEMA Objectives FEMA, through the Urban Search & Rescue (US&R) Branch or Grant Programs Directorate, shall: 1. Provide oversight and funding to System Sponsoring Agencies to manage and administer US&R task force affairs and activities in accordance with accepted standard business practices. 2. Provide oversight and funding to train and exercise System personnel to safely perform assigned US&R duties in accordance with established FEMA/System approved standards and guidance. 3. Provide oversight and funding to acquire and maintain the equipment in accordance with the US&R Equipment Cache List as approved by the US&R Branch. 4. Provide oversight and funding for the lease of space to provide offices, training facilities and/or storage of vehicles and equipment, as needed. 5. Provide resources (e.g., staff, equipment, funding) to support readiness and standby activities, subject to availability of funds (e.g., catastrophic planning, technical assistance, mobilization exercises). 6. Provide a forum for discussion of strategic issues by facilitating the hosting of Sponsoring Agency Chief/Head meetings with the FEMA Administrator, or designee' as well as regularly scheduled meetings with the System's Strategic Group. D. Approvals Advance approval must be obtained in writing from both the US&R Branch and the FEMA Grants Assistance Officer for the following (in accordance with 2 C.F.R. Part 200): 1. Approval for activities or expenditures not identified in the task force narrative and budget, but that are allowable within the scope of work for this Cooperative Agreement (i.e., budget changes) 2. Requests for extension of the Period of Performance (POP) for this Cooperative Agreement. (The POP for this Cooperative Agreement is 36 months to allow sufficient time to complete and execute the budget). Extensions to the POP for this program are allowed. Extensions to the POP identified in the award will only be considered through formal, written requests to both the US&R Branch and the FEMA Grants Assistance Officer and must contain specific and compelling justifications as to why an extension is required. See also section H.2 of the NOFO for more information on the POP extension process. 3. Requests for spending Cooperative Agreement funds prior to the beginning of this period of performance ("pre -award costs"). See also section D.14(b) of the NOFO for further information on pre -award costs. For more detailed information pertaining to submission of amendments to this Cooperative Agreement, refer to US&R Program Directive 2016-010 — US&R Readiness Amendment Guidance, dated September 6, 2016, and any updates. (Available by contacting the US&R Branch) Unauthorized expenditures may be denied and required to be reimbursed to FEMA. Use of Cooperative Agreement funds provided through this agreement for any activity that occurs outside the United States and its territories is prohibited, unless authorized by the US&R Branch, FEMA Grant Programs Directorate and FEMA International Affairs prior to incurring costs for the activity. See also section D.14 of the NOFO for further information on funding restrictions and allowable costs. E. Applicable Laws and Policies/Order of Precedence This award is subject to the laws and regulations of the United States. This Cooperative Agreement incorporates the terms and requirements of any applicable Agency policies and all US&R Program Directives issued by the US&R Branch, including those issued during the term of this Cooperative Agreement. Any inconsistency or conflict in terms and conditions specified in the award will be resolved according to the following order of precedence: public laws, regulations, applicable notices published in the Federal Register, Executive Orders, OMB Circulars, agency award conditions, the terms and conditions of the Sponsoring Agency's Memorandum of Agreement with FEMA, applicable DHS and FEMA policies, US&R Program Directives, and US&R General Memoranda. (Available by contacting the US&R Branch) Some of the terms and conditions contained herein may contain, by reference or substance, a summary of the applicable statutes, regulations, Executive Orders, or OMB Circulars. To the extent that a term or condition contained in this NOFO is a summary of an authority, such provision is not in derogation of, or an amendment to, any such statute, regulation, Executive Order, or OMB Circular. Prohibitions on Expending FEMA Award Funds for Covered Telecommunications Equipment or Services Effective August 13, 2020, and mandated by section 889 of the John S. McCain National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019 (FY 2019 NDAA), Pub. L. No. 115-232 (2018), FEMA recipients and subrecipients may not use grant funds to: i. Procure or obtain any equipment, system, or service that uses covered telecommunications equipment or services as a substantial or essential component of any system, or as critical technology of any system; ii. Enter into, extend, or renew a contract to procure or obtain any equipment, system, or service that uses covered telecommunications equipment or services as a substantial or essential component of any system, or as critical technology of any system; or iii. Enter into contracts or extend or renew contracts with entities that use covered telecommunications equipment or services as a substantial or essential component of any system, or as critical technology as part of any system. F. Cooperative Agreement Funding The FY 2023 Cooperative Agreement base total (or minimum amount) for each task force is $1,259,313.00. The US&R Branch recommended allocations are outlined in Appendix B of this NOFO. Additional funds allocated to specific task forces are provided by the US&R Branch in Appendices C, D, and E. Each task force can apply for up to the amount allocated to their agency as shown in Appendix C. All Sponsoring Agencies must submit supporting documentation with each application. The Period of Performance for the FY 2023 US&R Readiness Cooperative Agreement funding is 36 months. Each task force should submit a budget narrative detailing daily operation costs such as salary expenses and lease costs within that period of performance covering only 12 months. Certain costs may be expended during any point in the period of performance while other costs must be budgeted for a set period within the period of performance. For costs to conduct trainings and for procurement of equipment and supplies task forces shall only charge costs for work done in the period of performance. Where part (or all) of the work under a grant is equipment to be put into service, then that work needs to be fully completed (including receiving the equipment) within the period of performance. These costs may be incurred at any point throughout the period of performance. Task forces are reminded that you may only use cooperative agreement funds to pay for warehouse leases for a twelve-month consecutive period within the overall period of performance and that there is no guarantee of cooperative agreement funding in future years. Task forces may write contracts with an available funds clause or option years for protection. G. FEMA/US&R Branch Responsibility 1.

Track, disseminate, and consistently update the status of recommendations generated from the Advisory Organization to all System components. 10. Based on various planning factors, the US&R Branch may alert or activate System resources for activities associated with scheduled National Special Security Events (NSSE). Task forces activated under this section will be notified in advance, through written activation orders that will provide authorization for travel and to carryout activities required of the operations. Prior to any activities under this section, the US&R Branch will request cost estimates from identified task forces. This item would be funded separately from annual Readiness Cooperative Agreement funding but could be either an amendment to this Cooperative Agreement or the Response Cooperative Agreement. 11. Provide at least one full-time US&R Branch staff member to serve as project officer for each of the recognized Functional Groups within the Advisory Organization to assist the Group leader in the administration of the Group. H. Sponsoring Agency Responsibility and Requirements Under this Readiness Cooperative Agreement, the Sponsoring Agency shall use funding to prepare the task force under the following categories: Administration/Management, Training, Equipment, and Storage/Maintenance. 1. Administration and Management a. Provide sufficient staff for management and administration of task force day-to-day activities. This staff shall be responsible for program management, grants management, financial management, administrative support, training coordination and instruction, logistics management and property accountability. These management responsibilities include, but are not limited to, task force salaries and expenses coordination; record -keeping; inventory and maintenance of task force equipment caches; communicating with task force members and parties who support task force activities; and similar management and administrative tasks. b. Maintain a comparison of expenditures with budgeted amounts for each Federal award, per 2 C.F.R. § 200.302. This includes maintaining a budget that reflects budgeted versus actual expenditures, tracking back to the four budget categories and nine object classes as detailed within their budget of their application on SF-424A — Budget Information (Non -Construction) or SF-424C —Budget Information (Construction). c. Task forces may purchase equipment & supplies for the administration of their program with US&R funding, with their own funding, or both.

These funds are intended to defray personnel salary, backfill, travel and other administrative costs associated with these positions for assigned task forces in accordance with Sponsoring Agency policies and Appendices C, D, E, and F. Ensure funds are properly allocated, accounted for, and reported for those task forces that receive additional funding to host meetings, deliver national training, and facilitate special projects. These funds are intended to defray personnel salary, backfill, travel and other administrative costs associated with the additional funding provided in accordance with Sponsoring Agency policies and Appendices C, D, E, and F. k. Ensure funds are properly allocated, accounted for, and reported for congressionally mandated and end -of -year supplemental funding intended to recapitalize the equipment cache. Ensure timely reporting of expenditures for readiness activities carried out under this agreement and timely delivery of Cooperative Agreement reporting. Refer to Section I of this Appendix, Reporting. m. As funding allows, ensure personnel salaries and expenses relating to task force and Incident Support Team administration, development and training preparedness activities are paid in accordance with established Sponsoring and Participating Agency policies/practices and in a timely manner, but no later than 120 days after completion of a training exercise. Appropriate personnel records shall be kept in accordance with 2 C.F.R. Part 200. n. Compliance with NIMS is a condition for award of this Cooperative Agreement as outlined in Homeland Security Presidential Directive-5 (HSPD-5), Management of Domestic Incidents. Sponsoring Agencies must comply with the NIMS Implementation Activities established annually by FEMA. Sponsoring Agencies must report NIMS compliance activities in accordance with state and local NIMS guidance. Additionally, a certificate of completion for each required course in accordance with current the Position Descriptions must be in each System task force member's personnel file. State offered NRF, NIMS, or equivalent certificates may be substituted for those courses offered on the FEMA NIMS website provided they meet federal NIMS standards. For further information on compliance and guidance, refer to the following website: ➢Ottps://www.ff`eurtia.gov/national incident: management: s,Yste: . o. Attend FEMA-sponsored or FEMA-approved System meetings, conferences, and training sessions, or other events as directed by the US&R Branch as they relate to the System. Other activities include on -site peer AREs, OREEs, quality assurance oversight of FEMA-sanctioned training courses, training with other task forces, grants management training, non-federal search and rescue meetings/activities (e.g., State Urban Search and Rescue (SUSAR) Alliance), and research & development for equipment, as directed by the US&R Branch. The US&R Branch is recommending allocation of certain funds as identified in Appendix B for travel. All travel funds shall be accounted for under Management and Administration and/or Training at the task force level. p. Provide complete medical evaluations and immunizations to task force members as defined by the System's Medical Subgroup or current Federal requirements. Medical screening should be conducted, at a minimum, on a triennial basis for each task force member. Each task force member must have a current Fit for Deployment form signed by the examining physician on file. This document along with the medical evaluation shall become part of each member's personal medical record. Please refer to the most current Program Directive. q. Expend at least 98% of the Cooperative Agreement funds for which the task force has budgeted. Failure to expend 98% might be taken into consideration for future award amounts. 2. Training a. Provide System -related or System -required training for task force personnel, including the delivery of local US&R training courses or other courses specifically required by the System's Position Descriptions or authorized by the US&R Branch. This should include equipment specific training provided by the manufacturer and authorized repair technician certification training to allow task forces to have members certified to conduct manufacturer approved repairs in-house. b. As funding permits, complete all five modules of the OREE over a three-year period either as individual exercise components, or as one comprehensive deployment exercise. The task force is encouraged to exercise as many task force members as possible during this Cooperative Agreement. c. A task force deployment may cover all five modules or portions thereof, in which case those components not addressed in a deployment must be exercised once every three years. d. When a task force completes all five modules, those funds originally set aside for a deployment exercise may then be used for other System approved items within the same budget category. This change must be addressed in the Semi -Annual Performance Report. A budget change is required when funds exceeding 10% of the Cooperative Agreement award amount are moved to another program budget category. e. The task force should notify the US&R Branch of mobilization or deployment exercises as soon as the exercise is scheduled, but not later than 60 days before the exercise begins. Notification should be brief, but include dates, scope of exercise, number of participants, and other agencies involved. The intent of this notification is to provide the US&R Branch planning information for AREs and scheduling joint exercises with other DoD/federal agencies. It does not take the place of, and should not be confused with, sanction request letters to obtain FEMA approval of task force sponsored training and exercises in accordance with the Training Program Administration Manual (TPAM), dated January 27, 2020 (issued as US&R Program Directive 2020-004), or most current training manual. (Available from the US&R Branch) f. Submit an after -action report within 90 days of the completion of a mobilization or deployment exercise, or a training activity with duration of more than 24 consecutive hours.

Ensure training and exercise activities of the task force meet System standards, requirements and certifications. Ensure training records for all task force personnel are kept in a central, secure location. h. Provide funding for expenses related to the acquisition, maintenance, training and certification of Canine Search Teams. This statement is not related to the funding provided to host canine evaluations. The task force is authorized to fund the acquisition, maintenance, training and certification of Canine Search Teams — Human Remains Detection. This allows the task force the ability to have this resource within the task force. Task force support of this resource is voluntary. j. When authorized, ensure funds are distributed in support of hosting a System Canine Search Team Certification Evaluation or Preparation, as identified in Appendix D. When funding provided for the canine evaluations exceeds actual costs, the excess allocated funds may be redirected to other System activities that support the task force's canine program under Items 6 & 7. If remaining funds are used to cover costs under Items 6 and/or 7, provide this information and the associated cost(s) in their Semi -Annual Performance Report submission. k. Provide grants management training to assigned task force Grant Managers and Assistants who have not previously attended training. Grant management training is mandatory for all task force Grants Managers and Assistants. Grant management training is optional, but highly recommended, for task force Program Managers and other key personnel assigned to System administrative duties. Every effort shall be made to attend continuing education by task force Grant Managers and Assistants during the Cooperative Agreement to stay current with regulation updates/changes. Personnel should attend training from a facility that provides a "Grants Certificate Program" and/or the US&R Grant Manager course. The US&R Branch and/or Grants Assistance Officer may be contacted for further information on classes offered. Examples of some grant management course topics are: 1. Managing Federal Grants and Cooperative Agreements for Recipients 2. Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards: 2 C.F.R. Part 200 3.

In our opinion, the accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards and State financial assistance presents fairly, in all material respects, the expenditures of federal awards and State financial assistance of the City of Miami, Florida for the year ended September 30, 2022, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Basis for Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; and the audit requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance), and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General. Our responsibilities under those standards and the Uniform Guidance are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Schedule section of our report. We are required to be independent of the City and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Responsibilities of Management for the Schedule Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the Schedule in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the Schedule that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Schedule Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Schedule as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing Standards, and the Uniform Guidance as well as Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud Miramar Office 3350 SW 148th Ave. Suite 110 Miramar_ FL 33027 (954) 874-1721. 1 i'I_1 s"".N'F FOCt,SEf.): SOLUTION rill i. info@abcpasolutions.com Miami Office 7300 Biscayne Blvd. j Suite 200 Miami, FL 33138 (786) 888-4534 is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the Schedule. In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, we: • Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Schedule, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the Schedule. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the Schedule. Report on Audited Financial Statements The financial statements of the governmental activities, the business -type activities, the aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City as of and for the year ended September 30, 2022, were audited by other auditors, and they have issued their report thereon dated March 30, 2023. Their audit was performed for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City's basic financial statements as a whole, and they issued unmodified opinions thereon. In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, the other auditors have also issued a report dated March 30, 2023, on their consideration of the City's internal control over financial reporting and on their tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of their testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance, and the results of that testing, and not to provide opinions on the internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be considered in assessing the results of our audit. We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control -related matters that we identified during the audit. This report is intended solely for the information and use of the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission, management, and specific legislative or regulatory bodies and is not intended to be, and should not be, used by anyone other than these specified parties.

City of Miami, Florida's major federal programs and State projects are identified in the summary of auditor's results section of the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. In our opinion, City of Miami, Florida complied, in all material respects, with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on each of its major federal programs and State projects for the year ended September 30, 2022. Basis for Opinion on Each Major Federal Program We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; and the audit requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance) and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General. Our responsibilities under those standards and the Uniform Guidance and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance section of our report. We are required to be independent of City of Miami, Florida and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on compliance for each major federal program. Our audit does not provide a legal determination of City of Miami, Florida's compliance with the compliance requirements referred to above. Responsibilities of Management for Compliance Management is responsible for compliance with the requirements referred to above and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of effective internal control over compliance with the requirements of laws, statutes, regulations, rules, and provisions of contracts or grant agreements applicable to City of Miami, Florida's federal programs and State projects.

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing Standards, and the Uniform Guidance will always detect material noncompliance when it exists. The risk of not detecting material noncompliance resulting from fraud is higher than for that resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Noncompliance with the compliance requirements referred to above is considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, it would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user of the report on compliance about City of Miami, Florida's compliance with the requirements of each major federal program and State project as a whole. In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing Standards, and the Uniform Guidance, and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General we: • Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. • Identify and assess the risks of material noncompliance, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding City of Miami, Florida's compliance with the compliance requirements referred to above and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. • Obtain an understanding of City of Miami, Florida's internal control over compliance relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with the Uniform Guidance and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of City of Miami, Florida's internal control aver compliance. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in internal control over compliance that we identified during the audit. Report on Internal Control over Compliance A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program that is less severe than a material weakness in internal control over compliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. 4 C f; i Fa "i` C F S .i. Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance section above and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over compliance that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in internal control over compliance. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above. However, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in internal control over compliance may exist that were not identified. Our audit was not designed for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. The purpose of this report on internal control over compliance is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over compliance and the results of that testing based on the requirements of the Uniform Guidance. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose. '1°4- Miami, Florida March 30, 2023 5 :ENT :3 Sf' f.
