Foundation Status Classification: 509(A)(1) Advance Ruling Period Begins: DECEMBER 12,1996 • Advance Ruling Period Ends: DECEMBER 31,2000 Addendum Applies: NO. Dear Applicant: Based on information you supplied, and assuming your operations will be as stated in your application for recognition of exemption, we have determined you are exempt from federal income tax under section 501(a) of. the Internal Revenue Code as an organization described in section 501(c)(3) . Because you are a newly created organization, we are not now making a final determination of your foundation status under section 509(a) of the Code. However, we have determined that you can reasonably expect to be a publicly supported organization described in sections 509(a)(1) and 170(b)(1)(A)(vi) . Accordingly, during an advance ruling period you will be treated as -a publicly supported organization, and not as a private foundation. This advance ruling period begins and ends on the dates shown above. Within 90 days after the end of your advance ruling period, you must send us the information needed.to determine whether you have met the require- ments of the applicable support test during the advance ruling period. If you establish that you have been a publicly supported organization, we will classi- fy you as a section 509(a)(1) or 509(a)(2) organization as long as you continue to meet the requirements of the applicable support test. If you do not meet the public support requirements during the advance ruling period, we will classify you as a private foundation for future periods. Also, if we classify you as a private foundation, we will treat ycu as a private foundation from your beginning date for purposes of section 507(d) and 4940. Grantors and contributors may rely on our determination that you are not a private foundation until 90 days after the end of your advance ruling period. If you send us the required information within the 90 days, grantors and contributors may continue to rely on the advance determination until we make a final determination of your foundation status. If we publish a notice in•,the Internal Revenue Bulletin stating that. we (12) • [,Ptter 1f145 (nn/rr_) irector, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses including attorneys' fees, judgments, liens and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably . incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful .

In addition, if you lose your status as a publicly supported organi- • zation, and a grantor or contributor was responsible for, or was aware of, the act or failure to act, that resulted in your loss of such status, that person may not rely on this determination from the date of the act or failure to act.

Because you are a newly created organization , we are not now making a final determination of your foundation status under section 509(a) of the Code. However, we have determined that you can reasonably expect to be a publicly supported organization described in sections 509(a) ( 1 ) and 170(b) (1 ) (A) (vi ) . Accordingly, during an advance ruling period you will be treated as a publicly supported organization, and not as a private foundation . This advance ruling period begins and ends on the dates shown above. Within 90 days after the end of your advance ruling period, you must send us the information needed to determine whether you have met the require- ments of the applicable support test during the advance ruling period . If you establish that you have been a publicly supported organization, we will classi - fy you as a section 509(a) ( 1 ) or 509(a) (2) organization as long as you continue to meet the requirements of the applicable support test . If you do not meet the public support requirements during the advance ruling period, we will classify you as a private foundation for future periods . Also , if we classify you as a private foundation, we will treat you as a private foundation from your beginning date for purposes of section 507(d) and 4940 . Grantors and contributors may rely on our determination that you are not a private foundation until 90 days after the end of your advance ruling period .

If we publish a notice in the Internal Revenue Bulletin stating that we will no longer treat you as a publicly supported organization , grantors and contributors may not rely on this determination after the date we publish the notice. In addition , if you lose your status as a publicly supported organi - zation , and a grantor or contributor was responsible for , or was aware of, the act or failure to act , that resulted in your loss of such status, that person may not rely on this determination from the date of the act or failure to act . Also, if a grantor or contributor learned that we had given notice that you would be removed from classification as a publicly supported organization , then that person may not rely on this determination as of the date he or she acquired such knowledge. • If you change your sources of support, your purposes, character, or method of operation, please let us know so we can consider the effect of the change on your exempt status and foundation status .

A primary objective of the Rental Rehabilitation Program is to minimize displacement. This is accomplished by providing tenants a reasonable opportunity to lease and occupy a suitable, decent, safe, sanitary and affordable dwelling unit in the rehabilitated property following completion of the project,to the maximum extent feasible. In some instances, such as overcrowded living conditions, displacement of tenants is necessary. However, this Tenant Assistance Policy provides that no tenant will be considered displaced if the tenant has been offered a suitable unit in the completed project at an affordable rent. Section 1 - General All persons occupying a proposed Rental Rehabilitation property will be issued a written notice of the project and a copy of this Tenant Assistance Policy. Tenants are cautioned not to move prematurely because they may not be displaced by the project or they may disqualify themselves for relocation assistance. If the project is not approved or not funded, tenants will be notified of this determination as soon as practical. After a RRP application is received by the City, but prior to execution of an agreement between the property owner and the City, each tenant will be contacted and requested to provide pertinent household information. This information is required prior to the approval of RRP assistance, and will be used by the property owner and the City of Omaha to determine the level of tenant assistance needed. During this time,the following tenant options will be considered: 1. The tenant will be offered a suitable unit in the property at an affordable rent. 2. The tenant will be considered for temporary relocation while his/her unit is being rehabilitated. _ 3. The determination will be made that a tenant must be permanently relocated from the property. 4. The tenant may consider voluntarily abandoning the property. As soon as the above determinations are made, an agreement may be entered into between the property owner and the City. Promptly after the execution of the agreement with the owner, each tenant will be issued a notice either: 1. explaining the reasonable terms and conditions under which they may lease and occupy the property following completion of the rehabilitation, including the rent amount to be charged; or, 2. indicating eligibility for relocation assistance and describing the assistance available. lE O • CO.

Section 2 - Tenant Assistance Tenants Who Will Not Be Displaced In most instances, tenants will remain in their units while the property is being renovated. Upon completion of the rehabilitation,tenants may lease and occupy their units at an affordable rent.

The Metric Conversion Act, as amended by the Omnibus Trade and Competitiveness Act (15 U.S.C. 205)declares that the metric system is the preferred measurement system for U.S. trade and commerce. The Act requires each Federal agency to establish a date or dates in consultation with the Secretary of Commerce,when the metric system of measurement will be used in the agency's procurements, grants, and other business-related activities. Metric implementation may take longer where the use of the system is initially impractical or likely to cause significant inefficiencies in the accomplishment of federally-funded activities. Federal awarding agencies shall follow the provisions of E.O. 12770, "Metric Usage in Federal Government Programs." .16 Resource Conservation and Recovery Act(RCRA) (Pub. L. 94-580 codified at 42 U.S.C. 6962).Under the Act, any State agency or agency of a political subdivision of a State which is using appropriated Federal funds must comply with Section 6002. Section 6002 requires that preference be given in procurement programs to the purchase of specific products containing recycled materials identified in guidelines developed by the Environmental Protection Agency(EPA)(40 CFR parts 247-254). Accordingly, State and local institutions of higher education,hospitals, and non-profit organizations that receive direct Federal awards or other Federal funds shall give preference in their procurement programs funded with Federal funds to the purchase of recycled products pursuant to the EPA guidelines. _.17 Certifications and representations. Unless prohibited by statute or codified regulation, each Federal awarding agency is authorized and encouraged to allow recipients to submit certifications and representations required by statute, executive order,or regulation on an annual basis, if the recipients have ongoing and continuing relationships with the agency. Annual certifications and representations shall be signed by responsible officials with the authority to ensure recipients'compliance with the pertinent requirements. SUBPART C- Post-Award Requirements Financial and Program Management _.20 Purpose of financial and program management.

(2)Records that identify adequately the source and application of funds for federally- sponsored activities. These records shall contain information pertaining to Federal awards, authorizations, obligations, unobligated balances,assets, outlays,income and interest. (3) Effective control over and accountability for all funds, property and other assets. Recipients shall adequately safeguard all such assets and assure they are used solely for authorized purposes.

Cash advances to a recipient organization shall be limited to the minimum amounts needed and be timed to be in accordance with the actual, immediate cash requirements of the recipient organization in carrying out the purpose of the approved program or project. The timing and amount of cash advances shall be as close as is administratively feasible to the actual disbursements by the recipient organization for direct program or project costs and the proportionate share of any allowable indirect costs. (c) Whenever possible, advances shall be consolidated to cover anticipated cash needs for all awards made by the Federal awarding agency to:the recipient. (1)Advance payment mechanisms include,but are not limited to,Treasury check and electronic funds transfer. (2) Advance payment mechanisms are subject to 31 CFR part 205. (3)Recipients shall be authorized to submit requests for advances and reimbursements at least monthly when electronic fund transfers are not used. (d)Requests for Treasury check advance payment shall be submitted on SF-270, "Request for Advance or Reimbursement," or other forms as may be authorized by OMB. This form is not to be used when Treasury check advance payments are made to the recipient automatically through the use of a predetermined payment schedule or if precluded by special Federal awarding agency instructions for electronic funds transfer. (e)Reimbursement is the preferred method when the requirements in paragraph(b)cannot be met. Federal awarding agencies may also use this method on any construction agreement, or if the major portion of the construction project is accomplished through private market financing or Federal loans, and the Federal assistance constitutes a minor portion of the project. (1) When the reimbursement method is used, the Federal awarding agency shall make payment within 30 days after receipt of the billing, unless the billing is improper. (2)Recipients shall be authorized to submit request for reimbursement at least monthly when electronic funds transfers are not used. (f) If a recipient cannot meet the criteria for advance payments and the Federal awarding agency has determined that reimbursement is not feasible because the recipient lacks sufficient working capital,the Federal awarding agency may provide cash on a working capital advance basis. Under this procedure, the Federal awarding agency shall advance cash to the recipient to cover its estimated disbursement needs for an initial period generally geared to the awardee's disbursing cycle. Thereafter,the Federal awarding agency shall reimburse the recipient for its actual cash disbursements. The working capital advance method of payment shall not be used for recipients unwilling or unable to provide timely advances to their subrecipient to meet the subrecipient's actual cash disbursements. http://www.whitehouse.gov/OMB/circulars/al10/al10.html 6/20/00 0/00/— ded, the time allowed for completing the corrective actions, and the method for http://www.whitehouse.gov/OMB/circulars/a110/a110.html 6/20/00 .gov/OMB/circulars/a110/al l0.html 6/20/00 fl 3 0 ° 0 C = a ma = 0 3 . 0• p a, T3 - ° •cd m -4 mm ID 0 m m.< m ID m— `� � t7 f 00 m a�Z�c o A a ° m .< 3 • m _ 3c=° C °cf c . ° _.,CDm _S m y O O pa• L ° :_ — O to • 6 0.X-• 3 •.. 0 1 = 0.� m - '7'1 m m m m CO a m N" C W . •_ Z 0 0 m 0—=ad 9 3• co 3 m •c = 3 m 0 67 m-ao 3•o m m aa) 0 .< y - O S3 3� m —A m -. a .< a, m V C m C7 0. 0 m co 'f1m m c 3 O to mas A cc -0 -03 Z O m no a � v; m m �, tTi m m O m 3 m 3. 0 p O a, A - g wm m 3 mm = 'II ©a =o - • �o C 3 0 m ° N c m 3 0 3 c CL m a 6a0. o 60 0 c —. o , .. 0 3 0.10 3 - a m — o? • �caoCP y ° _ ° 07 A o — * 3 c 3 f m 3 • `< < c 3m .. co CD c m 3 o 06 6m= 3 =o .<'a ao a�ia ,<93 CO . c c a O 13 O y co CI m 3 f Obi 3 -Ae 7..e om - '< A 41 n •^, a CJ 3 ,16i A m m o — 2 A a m - m m P 8 C- m m 0 C) eU "0a° 0 > c E0 a3'a ..t m i >,> � _ w 03c_ .. .Q ,� E m C E < C 'R 0 c m C o0i m.a a m E 3 3 d m 0 . .

(1)A recipient has failed to comply with the project objectives,the terms and conditions of the award, or Federal reporting requirements. (2) The recipient or subrecipient is delinquent in a debt to the United States as defined in OMB Circular A-129, "Managing Federal Credit Programs." Under such conditions,the Federal awarding agency may, upon reasonable notice, inform the recipient that payments shall not be made for obligations incurred after a specified date until the conditions are corrected or the indebtedness to the Federal Government is liquidated. (i) Standards governing the use of banks and other institutions as depositories of funds advanced under awards are as follows. (1)Except for situations described in paragraph(i)(2),Federal awarding agencies shall not require separate depository accounts for funds provided to a recipient or establish any eligibility requirements for depositories for funds provided to a recipient. However,recipients must be able to account for the receipt, obligation and expenditure of funds. (2)Advances of Federal funds shall be deposited and maintained in insured accounts whenever possible. (j)Consistent with the national goal of expanding the opportunities for women-owned and minority-owned business enterprises,recipients shall be encouraged to use women-owned and minority-owned banks (a bank which is owned at least 50 percent by women or minority group members). (k)Recipients shall maintain advances of Federal funds in interest bearing accounts, unless(1), (2)or(3) apply. (1)The recipient receives less than$120,000 in Federal awards per year. (2) The best reasonably available interest bearing account would not be expected to earn interest in excess of$250 per year on Federal cash balances. (3)The depository would require an average or minimum balance so high that it would not be feasible within the expected Federal and non-Federal cash resources. (I)For those entities where CMIA and its implementing regulations do not apply, interest earned on Federal advances deposited in interest bearing accounts shall be remitted annually to Department of Health and Human Services,Payment Management System, Rockville, MD 20852.

(2) The current fair market value. However, when there is sufficient justification,the Federal awarding agency may approve the use of the current fair market value of the donated property, even if it exceeds the certified value at the time of donation to the project. (d)Volunteer services furnished by professional and technical personnel, consultants, and other skilled and unskilled labor may be counted as cost sharing or matching if the service is an integral and necessary part of an approved project or program. Rates for volunteer services shall be consistent with those paid for similar work in the recipient's organization. In those instances in which the required skills are not found in the recipient organization,rates shall be consistent with those paid for similar work in the labor market in which the recipient competes for the kind of services involved. In either case, paid fringe benefits that are reasonable, allowable, and allocable may be included in the valuation. (e)When an employer other than the recipient furnishes the services of an employee,these services shall be valued at the employee's regular rate of pay(plus an amount of fringe benefits that are reasonable, allowable, and allocable,but exclusive of overhead costs),provided these services are in the same skill for which the employee is normally paid. (f)Donated supplies may include such items as expendable equipment, office supplies, laboratory supplies or workshop and classroom supplies. Value assessed to donated supplies included in the cost sharing or matching share shall be reasonable and shall not exceed the fair market value of the property at the time of the donation. (g)The method used for determining cost sharing or matching for donated equipment, buildings and land for which title passes to the recipient may differ according to the purpose of the award, if(1)or(2)apply. (1)If the purpose of the award is to assist the recipient in the acquisition of equipment, buildings or land, the total value of the donated property may be claimed as cost sharing or matching. (2)If the purpose of the award is to support activities that require the use of equipment, buildings or land,normally only depreciation or use charges for equipment and buildings may be made. However,the full value of equipment or other capital assets and fair rental charges for land may be allowed,provided that the Federal awarding agency has approved the charges. (h)The value of donated property shall be determined in accordance with the usual accounting policies of the recipient,with the following qualifications. (1)The value of donated land and buildings shall not exceed its fair market value at the time of donation to the recipient as established by an independent appraiser(e.g., certified real property appraiser or General Services Administration representative) and certified by a responsible official of the recipient.

(k)For both construction and nonconstruction awards, Federal awarding agencies shall require recipients to notify the Federal awarding agency in writing promptly whenever the amount of Federal authorized funds is expected to exceed the needs of the recipient for the project period by more than $5000 or five percent of the Federal award,whichever is greater. This notification shall not be required if an application for additional funding is submitted for a continuation award. (1) When requesting approval for budget revisions,recipients shall use the budget forms that were used in the application unless the Federal awarding agency indicates a letter of request suffices. (m) Within 30 calendar days from the date of receipt of the request for budget revisions, Federal awarding agencies shall review the request and notify the recipient whether the budget revisions have been approved. If the revision is still under consideration at the end of 30 calendar days, the Federal awarding agency shall inform the recipient in writing of the date when the recipient may expect the decision. .26 Non-Federal audits. (a)Recipients and subrecipients that are institutions of higher education or other non-profit organizations (including hospitals) shall be subject to the audit requirements contained in the Single Audit Act Amendments of 1996 (31 USC 7501-7507) and revised OMB Circular A-133, "Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations." (b) State and local governments shall be subject to the audit requirements contained in the Single Audit Act Amendments of 1996 (31 USC 7501-7507) and revised OMB Circular A-133, "Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations." imp://www.whitehouse.gov/OMB/circulars/a110/a110.html 6/20/00 those consistent with the original intent of the appropriation. http://www.whitehouse.gov/OMB/circulars/al 10/al 10.html 6/20/00 pient.

(d) Commercial organizations shall be subject to the audit requirements of the Federal awarding agency or the prime recipient as incorporated into the award document. _.27 Allowable costs. For each kind of recipient,there is a set of Federal principles for determining allowable costs. Allowability of costs shall be determined in accordance with the cost principles applicable to the entity incurring the costs. Thus, allowability of costs incurred by State, local or federally-recognized Indian tribal governments is determined in accordance with the provisions of OMB Circular A-87, "Cost Principles for State,Local, and Indian Tribal Governments." The allowability of costs incurred by non-profit organizations is determined in accordance with the provisions of OMB Circular A-122, "Cost Principles for Non-Profit Organizations." The allowability of costs incurred by institutions of higher education is determined in accordance with the provisions of OMB Circular A-21, "Cost Principles for Educational Institutions." The allowability of costs incurred by hospitals is determined in accordance with the provisions of Appendix E of 45 CFR part 74, "Principles for Determining Costs Applicable to Research and Development Under Grants and Contracts with Hospitals." The allowability of costs incurred by commercial organizations and those non-profit organizations listed in Attachment C to Circular A-122 is determined in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Acquisition Regulation(FAR)at 48 CFR part 31. _.28 Period of availability of funds. Where a funding period is specified, a recipient may charge to the grant only allowable costs resulting from obligations incurred during the funding period and any pre-award costs authorized by the Federal awarding agency. .29 Conditional exemptions. (a) OMB authorizes conditional exemption from OMB administrative requirements and cost principles circulars for certain Federal programs with statutorily-authorized consolidated planning and consolidated administrative funding, that are identified by a Federal agency and approved by the head of the Executive department or establishment. A Federal agency shall consult with OMB during its consideration of whether to grant such an exemption. (b)To promote efficiency in State and local program administration,when Federal non- entitlement programs with common purposes have specific statutorily-authorized consolidated planning and consolidated administrative funding and where most of the State agency's resources come from non-Federal sources,Federal agencies may exempt these covered State-administered,non- entitlement grant programs from certain OMB grants management requirements. The exemptions would be from all but the allocability of costs provisions of OMB Circulars A-87 (Attachment A, subsection C.3), "Cost Principles for State, Local, and Indian Tribal Governments,"A-21 (Section C, subpart 4), "Cost Principles for Educational Institutions," and A-122 (Attachment A, subsection A.4), "Cost Principles for Non-Profit Organizations," and from all of the administrative requirements provisions of OMB Circular A-110, "Uniform Administrative Requirements for Grants and Agreements with Institutions of Higher Education,Hospitals, and Other Non-Profit Organizations," and the agencies'grants management common rule. (c) When a Federal agency provides this flexibility, as a prerequisite to a State's exercising this option, a State must adopt its own written fiscal and administrative requirements for expending and http://www.whitehouse.gov/OMB/circulars/a110/a110.html 6/20/00 3 • m _ 3c=° C °cf c . ° _.,CDm _S m y O O pa• L ° :_ — O to • 6 0.X-• 3 •.. 0 1 = 0.� m - '7'1 m m m m CO a m N" C W . •_ Z 0 0 m 0—=ad 9 3• co 3 m •c = 3 m 0 67 m-ao 3•o m m aa) 0 .< y - O S3 3� m —A m -. a .< a, m V C m C7 0. 0 m co 'f1m m c 3 O to mas A cc -0 -03 Z O m no a � v; m m �, tTi m m O m 3 m 3. 0 p O a, A - g wm m 3 mm = 'II ©a =o - • �o C 3 0 m ° N c m 3 0 3 c CL m a 6a0. o 60 0 c —. o , .. 0 3 0.10 3 - a m — o? • �caoCP y ° _ ° 07 A o — * 3 c 3 f m 3 • `< < c 3m .. co CD c m 3 o 06 6m= 3 =o .<'a ao a�ia ,<93 CO . c c a O 13 O y co CI m 3 f Obi 3 -Ae 7..e om - '< A 41 n •^, a CJ 3 ,16i A m m o — 2 A a m - m m P 8 C- m m 0 C) eU "0a° 0 > c E0 a3'a ..t m i >,> � _ w 03c_ .. .Q ,� E m C E < C 'R 0 c m C o0i m.a a m E 3 3 d m 0 . .

These fiscal and administrative requirements must be sufficiently specific to ensure that: funds are used in compliance with all applicable Federal statutory and regulatory provisions, costs are reasonable and necessary for operating these programs, and funds are not be used for general expenses required to carry out other responsibilities of a State or its subrecipients. Property Standards .30 Purpose of property standards. Sections .31 through .37 set forth uniform standards governing management and disposition of property furnished by the Federal Government whose cost was charged to a project supported by a Federal award. Federal awarding agencies shall require recipients to observe these standards under awards and shall not impose additional requirements, unless specifically required by Federal statute. The recipient may use its own property management standards and procedures provided it observes the provisions of Sections .31 through .37. _.31 Insurance coverage.Recipients shall,at a minimum,provide the equivalent insurance coverage for real property and equipment acquired with Federal funds as provided to property owned by the recipient. Federally-owned property need not be insured unless required by the terms and conditions of the award. .32 Real property. Each Federal awarding agency shall prescribe requirements for recipients concerning the use and disposition of real property acquired in whole or in part under awards. Unless otherwise provided by statute, such requirements, at a minimum, shall contain the following. (a)Title to real property shall vest in the recipient subject to the condition that the recipient shall use the real property for the authorized purpose of the project as long as it is needed and shall not encumber the property without approval of the Federal awarding agency. (b)The recipient shall obtain written approval by the Federal awarding agency for the use of real property in other federally-sponsored projects when the recipient determines that the property is no longer needed for the purpose of the original project. Use in other projects shall be limited to those under federally-sponsored projects(i.e., awards)or programs that have purposes consistent with those authorized for support by the Federal awarding agency. (c) When the real property is no longer needed as provided in paragraphs(a)and(b), the recipient shall request disposition instructions from the Federal awarding agency or its successor Federal awarding agency. The Federal awarding agency shall observe one or more of the following disposition instructions. (1)The recipient may be permitted to retain title without further obligation to the Federal Government after it compensates the Federal Government for that percentage of the current fair market value of the property attributable to the Federal participation in the project. (2) The recipient may be directed to sell the property under guidelines provided by the Federal awarding agency and pay the Federal Government for that percentage of the current fair market value of the property attributable to the Federal participation in the project(after deducting actual and reasonable selling and fix-up expenses, if any, from the sales proceeds).

(3).The recipient may be directed to transfer title to the property to the Federal Government or to an eligible third party provided that, in such cases, the recipient shall be entitled to compensation for its attributable percentage of the current fair market value of the property. _.33 Federally-owned and exempt property. (a)Federally-owned property. (1)Title to federally-owned property remains vested in the Federal Government. Recipients shall submit annually an inventory listing of federally-owned property in their custody to the Federal awarding agency. Upon completion of the award or when the property is no longer needed,the recipient shall report the property to the Federal awarding agency for further Federal agency utilization. (2)If the Federal awarding agency has no further need for the property, it shall be declared excess and reported to the General Services Administration,unless the Federal awarding agency has statutory authority to dispose of the property by alternative methods(e.g., the authority provided by the Federal Technology Transfer Act(15 U.S.C. 3710(I))to donate research equipment to educational and non-profit organizations in accordance with E.O. 12821, "Improving Mathematics and Science Education in Support of the National Education Goals.") Appropriate instructions shall be issued to the recipient by the Federal awarding agency. (b)Exempt property. When statutory authority exists, the Federal awarding agency has the option to vest title to property acquired with Federal funds in the recipient without further obligation to the Federal Government and under conditions the Federal awarding agency considers appropriate. Such property is"exempt property." Should a Federal awarding agency not establish conditions,title to exempt property upon acquisition shall vest in the recipient without further obligation to the Federal Government. .34 Equipment. (a)Title to equipment acquired by a recipient with Federal funds shall vest in the recipient, subject to conditions of this section. (b)The recipient shall not use equipment acquired with Federal funds to provide services to non-Federal outside organizations for a fee that is less than private companies charge for equivalent services, unless specifically authorized by Federal statute, for as long as the Federal Government retains an interest in the equipment. (c) The recipient shall use the equipment in the project or program for which it was acquired as long as needed,whether or not the project or program continues to be supported by Federal funds and shall not encumber the property without approval of the Federal awarding agency. When no longer needed for the original project or program,the recipient shall use the equipment in connection with its other federally-sponsored activities, in the following order of.priority:(i)Activities sponsored by the Federal awarding agency which funded the original project,then(ii)activities sponsored by other http://www.whitehouse.gov/OMB/circulars/a110/a110.html 6/2. 00 nt fair market value of the property attributable to the Federal participation in the project(after deducting actual and reasonable selling and fix-up expenses, if any, from the sales proceeds).

First preference for such other use shall be given to other projects or programs sponsored by the Federal awarding agency that financed the equipment; second preference shall be given to projects or programs sponsored by other Federal awarding agencies. If the equipment is owned by the Federal Government, use on other activities not sponsored by the Federal Government shall be permissible if authorized by the Federal awarding agency. User charges shall be treated as program income. (e) When acquiring replacement equipment,the recipient may use the equipment to be replaced as trade-in or sell the equipment and use the proceeds to offset the costs of the replacement equipment subject to the approval of the Federal awarding agency. (f) The recipient's property management standards for equipment acquired with Federal funds and federally-owned equipment shall include all of the following.

For equipment with a current per unit fair market value of$5000 or more,the recipient may retain the equipment for other uses provided that compensation is made to the original Federal awarding agency or its successor. The amount of compensation shall be computed by applying the percentage of Federal participation in the cost of the original project or program to the current fair market value of the equipment. If the recipient has no need for the equipment, the recipient shall request disposition instructions from the Federal awarding agency. The Federal awarding agency shall determine whether the equipment can be used to meet the agency's requirements. If no requirement exists within that agency, the availability of the equipment shall be reported to the General Services Administration by the Federal awarding agency to determine whether a requirement for the equipment exists in other Federal agencies. The Federal awarding agency shall issue instructions to the recipient no later than 120 calendar days after the recipient's request and the following procedures shall govern. (1)If so instructed or if disposition instructions are not issued within 120 calendar days after the recipient's request, the recipient shall sell the equipment and reimburse the Federal awarding agency an amount computed by applying to the sales proceeds the percentage of Federal participation in the cost of the original project or program. However, the recipient shall be permitted to deduct and retain from the Federal share$500 or ten percent of the proceeds, whichever is less, for the recipient's selling and handling expenses. (2)If the recipient is instructed to ship the equipment elsewhere, the recipient shall be reimbursed by the Federal Government by an amount which is computed by applying the percentage of the recipient's participation in the cost of the original project or program to the current fair market value of the equipment,plus any reasonable shipping or interim storage costs incurred. (3)If the recipient is instructed to otherwise dispose of the equipment, the recipient shall be reimbursed by the Federal awarding agency for such costs incurred in its disposition. http://www.whitehouse.gov/OMB/circulars/al 10/all 0.html 6/20/00 1 o a State's exercising this option, a State must adopt its own written fiscal and administrative requirements for expending and http://www.whitehouse.gov/OMB/circulars/a110/a110.html 6/20/00 3 • m _ 3c=° C °cf c . ° _.,CDm _S m y O O pa• L ° :_ — O to • 6 0.X-• 3 •.. 0 1 = 0.� m - '7'1 m m m m CO a m N" C W . •_ Z 0 0 m 0—=ad 9 3• co 3 m •c = 3 m 0 67 m-ao 3•o m m aa) 0 .< y - O S3 3� m —A m -. a .< a, m V C m C7 0. 0 m co 'f1m m c 3 O to mas A cc -0 -03 Z O m no a � v; m m �, tTi m m O m 3 m 3. 0 p O a, A - g wm m 3 mm = 'II ©a =o - • �o C 3 0 m ° N c m 3 0 3 c CL m a 6a0. o 60 0 c —. o , .. 0 3 0.10 3 - a m — o? • �caoCP y ° _ ° 07 A o — * 3 c 3 f m 3 • `< < c 3m .. co CD c m 3 o 06 6m= 3 =o .<'a ao a�ia ,<93 CO . c c a O 13 O y co CI m 3 f Obi 3 -Ae 7..e om - '< A 41 n •^, a CJ 3 ,16i A m m o — 2 A a m - m m P 8 C- m m 0 C) eU "0a° 0 > c E0 a3'a ..t m i >,> � _ w 03c_ .. .Q ,� E m C E < C 'R 0 c m C o0i m.a a m E 3 3 d m 0 . .

(ii)The Federal awarding agency shall issue disposition instructions within 120 calendar days after receipt of a final inventory. The final inventory shall list all equipment acquired with grant funds and federally-owned equipment. If the Federal awarding agency fails to issue disposition instructions within the 120 calendar day period, the recipient shall apply the standards of this section, as appropriate. (iii)When the Federal awarding agency exercises its right to take title,the equipment shall be subject to the provisions for federally-owned equipment. .35 Supplies and other expendable property. (a)Title to supplies and other expendable property shall vest in the recipient upon acquisition. If there is a residual inventory of unused supplies exceeding$5000 in total aggregate value upon termination or completion of the project or program and the supplies are not needed for any other federally-sponsored project or program, the recipient shall retain the supplies for use on non-Federal sponsored activities or sell them,but shall,in either case, compensate the Federal Government for its share. The amount of compensation shall be computed in the same manner as for equipment. (b)The recipient shall not use supplies acquired with Federal funds to provide services to non- Federal outside organizations for a fee that is less than private companies charge for equivalent services, unless specifically authorized by Federal statute as long as the Federal Government retains an interest in the supplies. .36 Intangible property. (a)The recipient may copyright any work that is subject to copyright and was developed,or for which ownership was purchased, under an award. The Federal awarding agency(ies)reserve a royalty-free,nonexclusive and irrevocable right to reproduce,publish, or otherwise use the work for Federal purposes, and to authorize others to do so. (b)Recipients are subject to applicable regulations governing patents and inventions, including government-wide regulations issued by the Department of Commerce at 37 CFR part 401, "Rights to Inventions Made by Nonprofit Organizations and Small Business Firms Under Government Grants, Contracts and Cooperative Agreements."

(d)(1)In addition, in response to a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA)request for research data relating to published research findings produced under an award that were used by the Federal Government in developing an agency action that has the force and effect of law, the Federal awarding agency shall request, and the recipient shall provide,within a reasonable time,the research data so that they can be made available to the public through the procedures established under the FOIA:If the Federal awarding agency obtains the research data solely in response to a FOIA request,the agency may charge the requester a reasonable fee equaling the full incremental cost of obtaining the research data. This fee should reflect costs incurred by the agency, the recipient, and applicable subrecipients. This fee is in addition to any fees'the agency may assess under the FOIA(5 U.S.C. 552 (a)(4)(A)). (2) The following definitions apply for purposes of paragraph(d)of this section: (i)Research data is defined as the recorded factual material commonly accepted in the scientific community as necessary to validate research findings, but not any of the following: preliminary analyses, drafts of scientific papers,plans for future research,peer reviews,or communications with colleagues. This "recorded" material excludes physical objects(e.g., laboratory samples). Research data also do not include: (A)Trade secrets, commercial information,materials necessary to be held confidential by a researcher until they are published, or similar information which is protected under law; and (B)Personnel and medical information and similar information the disclosure of which would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy, such as information that could be used to identify a particular person in a research study. (ii)Published is defined as either when: (A)Research findings are published in a peer-reviewed scientific or technical journal; or (B)A Federal agency publicly and officially cites the research findings in support of an agency action that has the force and effect of law. (iii) Used by the Federal Government in developing an agency action that has the force and effect of law is defined as when an agency publicly and officially cites the research findings in support of an agency action that has the force and effect of law. (e)Title to intangible property and debt instruments acquired under an award or subaward vests upon acquisition in the recipient. The recipient shall use that property for the originally-authorized purpose, and the recipient shall not encumber the property without approval of the Federal awarding agency.

Real property, equipment, intangible property and debt instruments that are acquired or improved with Federal funds shall be held in trust by the recipient as trustee for the beneficiaries of the project or program under which the property was acquired or improved. Agencies may require recipients to record liens or other appropriate notices of record to indicate that personal or real property has been acquired or improved with Federal funds and that use and disposition conditions apply to the property. Procurement Standards _.40 Purpose of procurement standards. Sections .41 through_.48 set forth standards for use by recipients in establishing procedures for the procurement of supplies and other expendable property, equipment, real property and other services with Federal funds. These standards are furnished to ensure that such materials and services are obtained in an effective manner and in compliance with the provisions of.applicable Federal statutes and executive orders. No additional procurement standards or requirements shall be imposed by the Federal awarding agencies upon recipients,unless specifically required by Federal statute or executive order or approved by OMB. .41 Recipient responsibilities. The standards contained in this section do not relieve the recipient of the contractual responsibilities arising under its contract(s). The recipient is the responsible authority,without recourse to the Federal awarding agency, regarding the settlement and satisfaction of all contractual and administrative issues arising out of procurements entered into in support of an award or other agreement. This includes disputes, claims,protests of award, source evaluation or other matters of a contractual nature. Matters concerning violation of statute are to be referred to such Federal, State or local authority as may have proper jurisdiction. _.42 Codes of conduct. The recipient shall maintain written standards of conduct governing the performance of its employees engaged in the award and administration of contracts. No employee, officer, or agent shall participate in the selection, award,or administration of a contract supported by Federal funds if a real or apparent conflict of interest would be involved. Such a conflict would arise when the employee, officer, or agent, any member of his or her immediate family,his or her partner, or an organization which employs or is about to employ any of the parties indicated herein,has a financial or other interest in the firm selected for an award. The officers, employees,and agents of the recipient shall neither solicit nor accept gratuities, favors,or anything of monetary value from contractors,or parties to subagreements. However,recipients 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 shall provide for disciplinary actions to be applied for violations of such standards by officers, employees,or agents of the recipient. .43 Competition. All procurement transactions shall be conducted in a manner to provide,to the maximum extent practical, open and free competition. The recipient shall be alert to organizational conflicts of interest as well as noncompetitive practices among contractors that may restrict or eliminate competition or otherwise restrain trade. In order to ensure objective contractor performance and eliminate unfair competitive advantage, contractors that develop or draft specifications, requirements, statements of work, invitations for bids and/or requests for proposals shall be excluded from competing for such procurements. Awards shall be made to the bidder or offeror whose bid or offer is responsive to the solicitation and is most advantageous to the recipient, price, quality and other factors considered. Solicitations shall clearly set forth all requirements that the bidder or offeror shall fulfill in order for the bid or offer to be evaluated by the recipient.

In competitive procurements, such a description shall not contain features which unduly restrict competition. (ii)Requirements which the bidder/offeror must fulfill and all other factors to be used in evaluating bids or proposals. (iii)A description,whenever practicable, of technical requirements in terms of functions to be performed or performance required, including the range of acceptable characteristics or minimum acceptable standards. (iv)The specific features of"brand name or equal" descriptions that bidders are required to meet when such items are included in the solicitation. (v)The acceptance, to the extent practicable and economically feasible, of products and services dimensioned in the metric system of measurement. (vi)Preference,to the extent practicable and economically feasible, for products and services that conserve natural resources and protect the environment and are energy efficient. (b)Positive efforts shall be made by recipients to utilize small businesses, minority-owned firms, and women's business enterprises,whenever possible.

(1)Ensure that small businesses, minority-owned firms, and women's business enterprises are used to the fullest extent practicable. (2)Make information on forthcoming opportunities available and arrange time frames for purchases and contracts to encourage and facilitate participation by small businesses, minority-owned firms, and women's business enterprises. (3)Consider in the contract process whether firms competing for larger contracts intend to subcontract with small businesses,minority-owned firms, and women's business enterprises. http://www.whitehouse.gov/OMB/circulars/a110/a110.html • 6/20/00 for an award.

(c) The type of procuring instruments used (e.g., fixed price contracts, cost reimbursable contracts,purchase orders, and incentive contracts)shall be determined by the recipient but shall be appropriate for the particular procurement and for promoting the best interest of the program or project involved. The "cost-plus-a-percentage-of-cost" or"percentage of construction cost"methods of contracting shall not be used. (d) Contracts shall be made only with responsible contractors who possess the potential ability to perform successfully under the terms and conditions of the proposed procurement. Consideration shall be given to such matters as contractor integrity,record of past performance, financial and technical resources or accessibility to other necessary resources. In certain circumstances, contracts with certain parties are restricted by agencies'implementation of E.O.s 12549 and 12689, "Debarment and Suspension."

S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Applicability The Project or Program to which the construction work covered by this contract pertains is being assisted by the United States of America and the following Federal Labor Standards Provisions are included in this Contract pursuant to the provisions applicable to such Federal assistance. A. 1. (i) Minimum Wages. All laborers and mechanics employed or working upon the site of the work (or under the United States Housing Act of 1937 or under the Housing Act of 1949 in the construction or development of the project), will be paid unconditionally and not less often than once a week, and without subsequent deduction or rebate on any account (except such payroll deductions as are permitted by regulations issued by the Secretary of Labor under the Copeland Act (29 CFR Part 3), the full amount of wages and bona fide fringe benefits (or cash equivalents thereof) due at time of payment computed at rates not less than those contained in the wage determination of the Secretary of Labor which is attached hereto and made a part hereof, regardless of any contractual relationship which may be alleged to exist between the contractor and such laborers and mechanics. Contributions made or costs reasonably anticipated for bona fide fringe benefits under Section 1(b)(2) of the Davis-Bacon Act on behalf of laborers or mechanics are considered wages paid to such laborers or mechanics, subject to the provisions of 29 CFR 5.5(a)(1)(iv); also, regular contributions made or costs incurred for more than a weekly period (but not less often than quarterly) under plans, funds, or programs, which cover the particular weekly period, are deemed to be constructively made or incurred during such weekly period. Such laborers and mechanics shall be paid the appropriate wage rate and fringe benefits on the wage determination for the classification of work actually performed, without regard to skill, except as provided in 29 CFR Part 5.5(a)(4). Laborers or mechanics performing work in more than one classification may be compensated at the rate specified for each classification for the time actually worked therein: Provided, That the employer's payroll records accurately set forth the time spent in each classification in which work is performed. The wage determination (including any additional classification and wage rates conformed under 29 CFR Part 5.5(a)(1)(ii) and the Davis-Bacon poster (WH-1321) shall be posted at all times by the contractor and its subcontractors at the site of the work in a prominent and accessible place where it can be easily seen by the workers. (ii) (a) Any class of laborers or mechanics which is not listed in the wage determination and which is to be employed under the contract shall be classified in conformance with the wage determination, HUD shall approve an additional classification and wage rate and fringe benefits therefore only when the following criteria have been met: (1) The work to be performed by the classification requested is not performed by a classification in the wage determination; and (2) The classification is utilized in the area by the construction industry; and (3) The proposed wage rate, including any bona fide fringe benefits, bears a reasonable relationship to the wage rates contained in the wage determination. (b) If the contractor and the laborers and mechanics to be employed in the classification (if known), or their representatives, and HUD or its designee agree on the classification and wage rate (including the amount designated for fringe benefits where appropriate), a report of the action taken shall be sent by HUD or its designee to the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division, Employment Standards Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, Washington, D.C. 20210. The Administrator, or an authorized representative, will approve, modify, or disapprove every additional classification action within 30 days of receipt and so advise HUD or its designee or will notify HUD or its designee within the 30-day period that additional time is necessary.

The Administrator, or an authorized representative, will issue a determination within 30 days of receipt and so advise HUD or its designee or will notify HUD or its designee within the 30-day period that additional time is necessary. (Approved by the Office of Management and Budget under OMB Control Number 1215-0140.) (d) The wage rate (including fringe benefits where appropriate) determined pursuant to subparagraphs (1)(b) or (c) of this paragraph, shall be paid to all workers performing work in the classification under this contract from the first day on which work is performed in the classification. (iii) Whenever the minimum wage rate prescribed in the contract for a class of laborers or mechanics includes a fringe benefit which is not expressed as an hourly rate, the contractor shall either pay the benefit as stated in the wage determination or shall pay another bona fide fringe benefit or an hourly cash equivalent thereof. (iv) If the contractor does not make payments to a trustee or other third person, the contractor may consider as part of the wages of any laborer or mechanic the amount of any costs reasonably anticipated in providing bona fide fringe benefits under a plan or program, Provided, That the Secretary of Labor has found, upon the written request of the contractor, that the applicable standards of the Davis-Bacon Act have been met. The Secretary of Labor may require the contractor to set aside in a separate account assets for the meeting of obligations under the plan or program. (Approved by the Office of Management and Budget under OMB Control Number 1215- 0140.) 2. Withholding. HUD or its designee shall upon its own action or upon written request of an authorized representative of the Department of Labor withhold or cause to be withheld from the contractor under this contract or any other Federal contract with the same prime contractor, or any other Federally-assisted contract subject to Davis-Bacon prevailing wage requirements, which is held by the same prime contractor so much of the accrued payments or advances as may be considered necessary to pay laborers and mechanics, including apprentices, trainees and helpers, employed by the contractor or any subcontractor the full amount of wages required by the contract. In the event of failure to pay any laborer or mechanic, including any apprentice, trainee or helper, employed or working on the site of the work (or under the United States Housing Act of 1937 or under the Housing Act of 1949 in the construction or development of the project), all or part of the wages required by the contract. HUD or its designee may, after written notice to the contractor, sponsor, applicant, or owner, take such action as may be necessary to cause the suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds until such violations have ceased. HUD or its designee may, after written notice to the contractor, disburse such amounts withheld for and on account of the contractor or subcontractor to the respective employees to whom they are due. The Comptroller General shall make such disbursements in the case of direct Davis-Bacon Act contracts. 3. (i) Payrolls and basic records. Payrolls and basic records relating thereto shall be maintained by the contractor during the course of the work preserved for a period of three years thereafter for all laborers and mechanics working at the site of the work (or under the United States Housing Act of 1937, or under the Housing Act of 1949, in the construction or development of the project). Such records shall contain the name, address, and social security number of each such worker, his or her correct classification, hourly rates of wages paid (including rates of contributions or costs anticipated for bona fide fringe benefits or cash equivalents thereof of the types described in Section 1(b)(2)(B) of the Davis-Bacon Act), daily and weekly number of hours worked, deductions made and actual wages paid. Whenever the Secretary of Labor has found under 29 CFR 5.5 (a)(1)(iv) that the wages of any laborer or mechanic include the amount of any costs reasonably anticipated in providing benefits under a plan or program described in Section 1(b)(2)(B) of the Davis-Bacon Act, the contractor shall maintain records which show that the commitment to provide 2 , o 06 6m= 3 =o .<'a ao a�ia ,<93 CO . c c a O 13 O y co CI m 3 f Obi 3 -Ae 7..e om - '< A 41 n •^, a CJ 3 ,16i A m m o — 2 A a m - m m P 8 C- m m 0 C) eU "0a° 0 > c E0 a3'a ..t m i >,> � _ w 03c_ .. .Q ,� E m C E < C 'R 0 c m C o0i m.a a m E 3 3 d m 0 . .

Contractors employing apprentices or trainees under approved programs shall maintain written evidence of the registration of apprenticeship programs and certification of trainee programs, the registration of the apprentices and trainees, and the ratios and wage rates prescribed in the applicable programs. (Approved by the Office of Management of Budget under OMB Control Numbers 1215-0140 and 1215-0017.) (ii) (a) The contractor shall submit weekly for each week in which any contract work is performed a copy of all payrolls to HUD or its designee if the agency is a party to the contract, but if the agency is not such a party, the contractor will submit the payrolls to the applicant, sponsor, or owner, as the case may be, for transmission to HUD or its designee. The payrolls submitted shall set out accurately and completely all of the information required to be maintained under 29 CFR Part 5.5(a)(3)(i). This information may be submitted in any form desired. Optional Form WH-347 is available for this purpose and may be purchased from the Superintendent of Documents (Federal Stock Number 029-005-00014-1), U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402. The prime Contractor is responsible for the submission of copies of payrolls by all subcontractors. (Approved by the Office of Management and Budget under OMB Control Number 1215-0149). (b) Each payroll submitted shall be accompanied by a "Statement of Compliance," signed by the contractor or subcontractor or his or her agent who pays or supervises the payment of the persons employed under the contract and shall certify the following: (1) That the payroll for the payroll period contains the information required to be maintained under 29 CFR Part 5.5(a)(3)(i) and that such information is correct and complete; (2) That each laborer or mechanic (including each helper, apprentice, and trainee) employed on the contract during the payroll period has been paid the full weekly wages earned, without rebate, either directly or indirectly, and that no deductions have been made either directly or indirectly from the full wages earned, other than permissible deductions as set forth in 29 CFR Part 3; (3) That each laborer or mechanic has been paid not less than the applicable wage rates and fringe benefits or cash equivalents for the classification of work performed, as specified in the applicable wage determination incorporated into the contract. (c) The weekly submission of a properly executed certification set forth on the reverse side of Optional Form WH-347 shall satisfy the requirement for submission of the "Statement of Compliance"required by paragraph A.3(ii)(b) of this section. (d) The falsification of any of the above certifications may subject the contractor or subcontractor to civil or criminal prosecution under Section 1001 of Title 18 and Section 231 of Title 31 of the United States Code. (iii) The contractor or subcontractor shall make the records required under paragraph A.3(i) of this section available for inspection, copying, or transcription by authorized representatives of HUD or its designee or the Department of Labor, and shall permit such representatives to interview employees during working hours on the job. If the contractor or subcontractor fails to submit the required records or to make them available, HUD or its designee may, after written notice to the contractor, sponsor, applicant, or owner, take such action as may be necessary to cause the suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds: Furthermore, failure to submit the required records upon request or to make such records available may be grounds for debarment action pursuant to 29 CFR Part 5.12. 3 project). Such records shall contain the name, address, and social security number of each such worker, his or her correct classification, hourly rates of wages paid (including rates of contributions or costs anticipated for bona fide fringe benefits or cash equivalents thereof of the types described in Section 1(b)(2)(B) of the Davis-Bacon Act), daily and weekly number of hours worked, deductions made and actual wages paid.

Apprentices will be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate for the work they performed when they are employed pursuant to and individually registered in a bona fide apprenticeship program registered with the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration, Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training, or with a State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the Bureau, or if a person is employed in his or her first 90 days of probationary employment as an apprentice in such an apprenticeship program, who is not individually registered in the program, but who has been certified by the Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training or a State Apprenticeship Agency (where appropriate) to be eligible for probationary employment as an apprentice. The allowable ratio of apprentices to journeymen on the job site in any craft classification shall not be greater than the ratio permitted to the contractor as to the entire work force under the registered program. Any worker listed on a payroll at an apprentice wage rate, who is not registered or otherwise employed as stated above, shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the classification of work actually performed. In addition, any apprentice performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. Where a contractor is performing construction on a project in a locality other than that in which its program is registered, the ratios and wage rates (expressed in percentages of the journeyman's hourly rate) specified in the contractor's or subcontractor's registered program shall be observed. Every apprentice must be paid at not less than the rate specified in the registered program for the apprentice's level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeymen hourly rate specified in the applicable wage determination. Apprentices shall be paid fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the apprenticeship program. If the apprenticeship program does not specify fringe benefits, apprentices must be paid the full amount of fringe benefits listed on the wage determination for the applicable classification. If the Administrator determines that a different practice prevails for the applicable apprentice classification, fringes shall be paid in accordance with that determination. In the event the Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training, or a State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the Bureau, withdraws approval of an apprenticeship program, the contractor will no longer be permitted to utilize apprentices at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved. (ii) Trainees. Except as provided in 29 CFR 5.16, trainees will not be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate for the work performed unless they are employed pursuant to and individually registered in a program which has received prior approval; evidenced by formal certification by the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration. The ratio of trainees to journeymen on the job site shall not be greater than permitted under the plan approved by the Employment and Training Administration. Every trainee must be paid at not less than the rate specified in the approved program for the trainee's level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeyman hourly rate specified in the applicable wage determination. Trainees shall be paid fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the trainee program. If the trainee program does not mention fringe benefits, trainees shall be paid the full amount of fringe benefits listed on the wage determination unless the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division determines that there is an apprenticeship program associated with the corresponding journeyman wage rate on the wage determination which provides for less than full fringe benefits for apprentices. Any employee listed on the payroll at a trainee rate who is not registered and participating in a training plan approved by the Employment and Training Administration shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. In addition, any trainee performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. In the event the Employment and Training Administration withdraws approval of a training program, the contractor will no longer be permitted to utilize trainees at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved.

DATES: The revision is effective on June 1, 1998. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Federal agencies should contact Gilbert Tran, Office of Federal Financial Management, Office of Management and Budget, (202) 395-3993.Non-Federal organizations should contact the organization's Federal cognizant agency. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A. Background On October 6, 1995;the Office of Management and Budget(OMB) issued a final revision to OMB Circular A-122, "Cost Principles for Non-Profit Organizations," in the Federal Register(60 FR 52516) regarding interest allowability. The revision was made in a continuing effort to increase consistency across OMB's cost principles circulars A-122,A-21, "Cost Principles for Educational Institutions," and A-87, "Cost Principles for State, Local and Indian Tribal Governments." To further the goals of consistency, OMB proposed on the same date(60 FR 52522) to revise the definition of equipment, to clarify the treatment of certain types of costs, to modify the multiple allocation base method for computing indirect cost rate(s), and to place an upper-limit on payments of administrative expenses for certain non-profit organizations. With this final revision, Circular A-122 consists of the Circular as issued in 1980 (45 FR 46022; July 8, 1980), as amended in 1984 (49 FR 18260; April-27, 1984), in 1987 (52 FR 19788; May 27, 1987),in 1995 (60 FR 52516; October 6, 1995),in 1997 (62 FR 45934;August 29, 1997), and in this notice. A recompilation of the entire Circular A-122,with all its amendments, accompanies the notice and is available in electronic form on the OMB Home Page at http://www.whitehouse.gov/OMB. B. Current Revisions Circular A-122 is revised in this notice to: 1. Amend the definition of equipment by increasing the capitalization threshold to the lesser amount used for financial statement purposes or$5,000(see paragraph 15). 2. Require major non-profit organizations (those receiving more than$10 million in direct Federal funding) to report indirect cost rates by two major component categories: facilities and administration(see paragraph D, Attachment A). ©\•.° 1 of 63 6/21/00 2:34 PM include required work listed in the City's Property Evaluation Report. - 8 - th respect to any subcontract as the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development or the Secretary of Labor shall direct as a means of enforcing such provisions. 6 i.

As used in this paragraph, the terms "laborers"and"mechanics" include watchmen and guards. (1) Overtime requirements. No contractor or subcontractor contracting for any part of the contract work which may require or involve the employment of laborers or mechanics shall require or permit any such laborer or mechanic in any workweek in which he or she is employed on such work to work in excess of forty hours in such workweek unless such laborer or mechanic receives compensation at a rate not less than one and one-half times the basic rate of pay for all hours worked in excess of forty hours in such workweek. 5 �� ation which provides for less than full fringe benefits for apprentices.

Modify the multiple allocation base method(MAB)to be consistent with OMB Circular A-21 (see paragraph D.3). However, major non-profit organizations are not required to use the multiple allocation base method. MAB remains one of the three available methodologies for computing indirect costs. 4. Clarify the treatment of the following cost items to provide consistency across OMB's cost principles circulars (A-21 and A-87) and the Federal Acquisition Regulations, where applicable: • Alcoholic beverages • Advertising and public relations costs • Organization-furnished automobiles • Defense and prosecution of criminal and civil proceedings, claims, appeals and patent infringements • Housing and living expenses • Insurance • Memberships • Selling or marketing of goods and services • Severance pay for foreign nationals OMB is not implementing the proposed restrictions on trustees' travel expenses at non-profit organizations. In line with this decision, and to further consistency between cost circulars, OMB will be amending Circular A-21 to allow trustees' travel expenses. OMB defers considering an upper-limit on payment of administrative expenses until better data on indirect costs at non-profit organizations are collected. C. Comments and Responses OMB received about 185 comments from non-profit organizations, Federal agencies,professional organizations and accounting firms. A summary of comments and OMB's responses are included in this notice. Several comments resulted in modifications to OMB's original proposal. The comments and OMB's responses are summarized by section as follow. Equipment Definition Comment: Clarification is needed on the treatment of depreciation of those assets which had costs between the old$500 threshold and the new $5,000. _ Response: In order to clarify the accounting for the undepreciated portion of any equipment costs as a result of a change in capitalization levels,paragraph 15 has been added to explain that the undepreciated amount may be recovered by continuing to claim otherwise allowable use allowances or depreciation on the equipment, or by amortizing the amount to be written off over a period of years as negotiated with the Federal cognizant agency. Comment: Clarification is needed on whether equipment under the $5,000 threshold, as established by the non-profit organizations'policy, requires Federal approval prior to acquisition. Response: Equipment under the $5,000 threshold, as established by the non-profit organization's policy, can be directly charged to sponsored agreements (subparagraph 15.b)without prior Federal approval. Comment: Current subparagraph 13.b requires prior approval for special purpose equipment, as direct • ',of 63 6/21/00 2:34 PM achment A). ©\•.° 1 of 63 6/21/00 2:34 PM include required work listed in the City's Property Evaluation Report. - 8 - th respect to any subcontract as the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development or the Secretary of Labor shall direct as a means of enforcing such provisions. 6 i.

This requirement is not consistent with the higher threshold of $5,000 allowed in the proposed revision. This requirement should be revised to be consistent with the \,, proposed revision. Response: OMB agrees. The Circular is revised to require prior Federal approval only for special purpose equipment with a unit cost of$5,000 or more. • Unallowable Cost Items These ten revised cost items are already unallowable under OMB Circulars A-21, "Cost Principles for Educational Institutions," and A-87, "Cost Principles for State, Local and Indian Tribal Governments," and/or the Federal Acquisition Regulations. OMB addressed the issue of trustees'travel in response to the comments received. For the other items, consistency across Federal cost regulations was a more significant issue than most of the commenters'concerns. Comments related to specific cost items are presented below, followed by OMB's responses. Advertising and Public Relations Costs Comment: Current paragraph 37,Public information service costs, should be combined with the "Advertising" paragraph to be consistent with other OMB cost principles in Circulars A-21 and A-87. Response: The commenter is correct. The treatment of public information service costs is now addressed in revised paragraph 1, Advertising and public relations costs. Current paragraph 37 is deleted. Comment: Clarify the types of activities that are allowable as public relations costs. Public relations costs to carry out certain functions, such as legitimate program outreach, that are required under sponsored programs and contracts should be allowable. Response: The Circular is revised to clarify that certain public relations costs for the purpose of communicating specific activities related to the sponsored programs to the public or the press are allowable costs. When they are necessary for program outreach effort as required by sponsored programs,public relations costs are allowable. Costs of advertising and public relations incurred solely to promote the organization are unallowable. Comment: Clarify whether advertising media costs such as radio and television are allowable. Response: As long as the public relations costs are specifically required by the sponsored programs or are related to the promotion of sponsored programs, any reasonable advertising media, including magazines, newspapers,radio, television, direct mail, exhibits, and the like,can be used and its costs are allowable. See paragraph 1.a. Comment: Community relation costs should be allowable as part of program outreach effort for Federal sponsored programs. Response: Community relations are defined in subparagraph 1.b as "those activities dedicated to maintain the image of the organization or promoting understanding and favorable relations with the community or public at large or any segment of the public." Costs related to community relations are allowable when the costs are required or necessary to the performance of the sponsored programs.

These costs should be allowable as direct costs. Response: The Circular is revised to allow these costs when they are necessary to perform the Federal projects,particularly the overseas sponsored projects with prior approval by the Federal awarding agency. These costs are allowable only as direct costs to the Federal projects, and not as fringe benefit or indirect costs. Comment: The Circular should specify which types of automobiles are allowable or unallowable (e.g., cars, vans, trucks and buses). Response: The types of automobiles are irrelevant for the purpose of determining the allowability of automobile costs. Rather, the determinant factors should be whether the automobile costs are reasonable and necessary for the performance of the Federal projects and authorized by the Federal awarding agency. Defense and prosecution of criminal and civil proceedings, claims, appeals and patent infringements Comment: Current paragraph 35.d, Professional service costs, should be combined with new paragraph 10. Response: OMB agrees. Current paragraph 35.d is deleted. Professional service costs related to defense of antitrust suits,prosecution of claims against the Federal Government and patent infringement litigation are discussed in new paragraph 10. Professional service costs incurred for organization and reorganization are discussed in paragraph 31, Organization costs. Comment: Clarification is needed as to when legal costs related to claims, appeals or proceeding become unallowable. Commenters noted that Federal agencies are inconsistent in the determination of the allowability of legal costs as one agency would allow legal costs up to the point where the case goes out of the Federal agency appeal process and to the courts,whereas other agencies would only allow legal costs through the first phase of appeals within the Federal agency. Response: The policy makes unallowable legal and related costs for either defending against claims made by the Federal Government or prosecuting claims against the Government. As such,once a final management decision letter is issued by the agency(for example, a disallowance letter), all legal and related costs are unallowable from that point forward. Unallowable costs would include claims and defenses pursued through agencies' formal appeal procedures such as administrative law judges and agency appeal boards. Note that legal and related costs may be allowable if the non-profit organization's position is sustained by the administrative appeal process or an agreement is reached between the organization and the Federal Government (see subparagraghs 10.b, 10.c, 10.d and 10.e). This revision is consistent with the language contained in OMB Circular A-21, "Cost Principles for Educational Institutions." Comment: Some commenters objected to the proposed 80 percent limitation on reimbursement when the institution is found innocent. Response: The proposed revision was retained because it provides consistency with procurement contracts. This limitation is based on the statutory language of Public Law 100-700, Major Fraud Act of 1988, November 19, 1988 (41 U.S.C., 256(k)(5)), which only allows recovery of 80 percent of the legal costs. a 3 of 63 6/21/00 2:34 PM .

Response: The Circular is revised in subparagraph 10.d to authorize Federal agencies to allow legal expenses to defend against lawsuits brought by a foreign government for violation of its law when such costs were necessary or were direct results of the performance of Federal sponsored programs. The same authorizations apply for legal costs for defense against lawsuits brought by state or local governments. Comment: Legal fees to defend against lawsuits filed by former employees for termination or by subrecipients should be allowable. Response: Legal fees incurred in defense of lawsuits not brought by a Federal, State, local or foreign government, except when the suits are brought by former employees under Section 2 of the Major Fraud Act of 1988 (Pub. L. 100-700), are allowable. Housing and living expenses Comment: For security and economic reasons,non-profit organizations often furnish automobiles and housing for its personnel working on overseas Federal projects (e.g., overseas projects sponsored by the U.S. Agency for International Development). These costs should be allowable as direct costs. Response: As previously noted(in the discussion of automobiles), the Circular is revised to allow these costs when they are necessary to perform the Federal projects and when they are approved by the Federal awarding agency. These costs are allowable only as direct costs to the Federal projects, and not as fringe benefit or indirect costs. Insurance Comment: General and casualty liability insurance costs for organization's directors and administrators should be allowable. Response: General and casualty liability insurance costs for organization's directors and administrators are allowable, subject to limitations, as described in subparagraph 22.a.(2). New subparagraph 22.a.(2).f, Insurance against defects,prohibits the reimbursement of costs against Federally sponsored awards for product(or services) liability insurance costs. Comment: Medical liability insurance costs for participants in Federal training programs should be. allowable. Response: Medical liability insurance costs associated with participants in Federal training programs are allowable Zo Federal programs as direct costs. Comment: Malpractice insurance costs for physicians should be direct charged to Federal programs while malpractice insurance costs for nurses or laboratory assistants, which are immaterial in most cases, should be charged as indirect costs. Response: Subparagraph B.2 of Attachment A provides that when a direct cost is of minor amounts, it may be treated as an indirect cost for reasons of practicality and efficiency,provided that the accounting treatment for such cost is consistently applied to all final cost objectives. Therefore, when malpractice insurance costs for nurses or lab technicians are immaterial in relation to its effect on the overall indirect 5 of 63 6/21 4 PM itution is found innocent.

Memberships Comment: Membership costs in civic and community organizations should be allowable. Response: Membership costs are allowable for business and professional organizations. The Circular is further revised to allow membership costs in civic and community organizations when associations with these organizations are essential to the performance of the Federal programs (as an outreach function). These membership costs must be approved by the Federal cognizant agency. Comment: Costs of membership in organizations that lobby should be unallowable. Response: Paragraph 25 of the Circular disallows lobbying costs. Membership dues to lobbying organizations are therefore unallowable. The unallowable portion of membership dues is determined by the percentage of lobbying activities versus other allowable activities of the lobbying organization. Selling or Marketing of Goods and Services Comment: Clarification is needed for what types of activities are considered to be the selling or marketing of goods and services. Response: Selling or marketing of goods and services generally include an organization's efforts to market the organization's products or services such as through advertising, organizational image enhancement, market planning and direct selling. Direct selling efforts are those acts or actions used to induce particular customers to purchase particular products or services of the organization. The allowability provisions for advertising costs are described in paragraph 1. Comment: The guidelines for selling or marketing of goods and services should be consistent with those in FAR 31.2O5.38(c)(1). Response: FAR 31.205.38(c)(1) allows direct selling costs at commercial contractors if they are reasonable in amount. By contrast to the commercial contract context, direct selling costs are generally not considered to be necessary costs for the performance of Federal sponsored programs by non-profit organizations. In those cases where they are essential for certain Federal sponsored programs, these costs can be charged as direct costs to the Federal sponsored programs if they are approved by the Federal awarding agency. Comment: Given that the Bayh-Dole Act encouraged technology transfer, selling or marketing costs of goods or services should be allowable costs. At the minimum, these costs should be allowable as direct costs to the Federal projects. Response: The Circular is revised to allow selling or marketing costs as direct costs to some Federal sponsored programs when approved by the Federal awarding agency. Severance Pay Comment: Early retirement benefits should be allowable costs. Response: Early retirement benefit costs are allowable costs, subject to limitations, and are discussed in subparagraph 6.f,Fringe Benefits, along with other forms of fringe benefits.

Comment: Guidelines for costs of severance pay to foreign nationals in excess of customary or prevailing practices should be consistent with section 2151 of the Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act of 1994 (FASA). Response: OMB agrees. The Circular is revised to be consistent with FASA guidelines for severance pay to foreign nationals in excess of customary or prevailing practices. As a result, the Federal awarding agency may allow these costs when they are necessary for the performance of the Federal sponsored programs. Trustees' Travel Comment: Several commenters opposed the proposal to disallow trustees'travel costs citing the difficulty of retaining or obtaining members to serve voluntarily on the Board of Trustees (or Directors) of a non-profit organization, if Board members have to pay for their own travel expenses to attend Board meetings. The commenters added that since serving on a non-profit organization's Board is often not as prestigious and desirable as serving on a University's Board(where trustees' travel costs are unallowable under Circular A-21),non-reimbursement of the travel costs would inhibit the recruitment of Board members. Response: OMB concurs that disallowing the reimbursement of trustees'travel costs could inhibit the recruitment of qualified Board members(particularly at smaller non-profit organizations), thereby hampering the operations of a non-profit organization. OMB also recognizes that trustees'travel costs are reasonable and necessary business costs. As a result,trustees' travel costs remain allowable. Comment: Trustees'travel costs should be allowable if they are reasonable. Some suggested tests for reasonableness of trustees'travel costs are: limit number of allowed trips per year,restriction of trips to organization's principal place of business or reasonable surroundings, distinction between scheduled Board meetings and emergency Board meetings, and disallowance of first-class airfare travels. Response: All costs charged to Federal projects must satisfy a reasonableness test. Although some of the suggested reasonableness tests appear to be good, OMB does not believe it is necessary at this time to impose specific restrictions on trustees' travel expenses. The reasonableness of a particular travel expense remains at the judgement of Federal negotiators. Comment: At Head Start organizations, some Trustee members are first sent for training in the operations of a Head Start program. These travel costs related to training should be allowable. Response: Travel costs related to training and education are allowable, subject to limitations, and are addressed in paragraph 53 of the Circular, Training and education costs. Comment: At Head Start organizations, there often are several advisory boards in addition to the Board of Trustees (or Directors). These advisory boards are involved in day-to-day operations of the organizations and often incur travel costs. Are these costs subject to the same restrictions as trustees' travel? Response: Travel costs for members of advisory groups are allowable, subject to the limitations in paragraph 55, Travel costs.

Several commenters recommended the flexibility of using one of the three different allocation methods as they are currently described in the Circular. The multiple allocation basis (MAB) should remain an optional allocation methodology rather than a required methodology for certain organizations. Response: The use of MAB for major non-profit organizations promotes consistency in the calculation and the reporting of indirect costs. It would facilitate the accumulation of indirect cost data by cost components (i.e., facilities and administration) and provide comparable rates between major research non-profit organizations and universities. However, OMB recognizes that a conversion to MAB may require some substantial changes in the organization's accounting system and that MAB is not practical for. single-function organizations. Therefore, the Circular continues to allow non-profit organizations to use any of the current three allocation methodologies. Comment: Several commenters suggested raising the threshold for the requirement to $25 million in direct Federal funding. Several commenters also suggested an exemption from this requirement for single-function organizations regardless of Federal funding levels. Response: The Circular is revised to allow the use of the current three allocation methodologies for all non-profit organizations. For organizations that receive more than$10 million in direct Federal funding, a breakout of indirect costs into two components, facilities and administration, is required regardless of the selected allocation methodology. Comment: The allocation methodology for general administration under MAB on the basis of modified total direct costs conflicts with the required methodology under Cost Accounting Standard(CAS) 410 applicable to contracts using the salaries and wages basis. One commenter suggested that a fully CAS-covered non-profit organization be exempted from the MAB requirement. Response: MAB is not a requirement for non-profit organizations and remains one of the three available methodologies in the Circular for computing indirect costs. In addition, CAS-covered non-profit organizations should continue to follow CAS with respect to the measurement, assignment and allocation of costs. Comment: The revision should clarify that the modified total direct cost base should only include the first $25,000 of a subcontract regardless of the period during which the project is started (consistent with OMB Circular A-21). Response: The modified total direct cost base, described in subparagraph D.3.f of the Circular,includes the first $25,000 of each subgrant or subcontract regardless of the period covered by the subgrant or subcontract. Subgrant or subcontract costs above$25,000 shall be excluded from the modified total direct cost base. For example, for a$300,000 subgrant that lasts three years, only the first$25,000 incurred on the award should be included in the modified total direct cost base. Administrative Cap of 26 percent Comment: Most commenters strongly opposed the 26 percent administrative cap stating that such limitation on cost reimbursement is arbitrary, capricious, and unnecessary. Some argued that a cap would be financially disastrous to non-profit organizations because they receive most of their funding from Federal sources (unlike universities).

Response: Based on the comments against the implementation of an administrative cap at non-profit organizations, OMB defers the consideration of establishing any administrative cap until better data on indirect costs at non-profit organizations can be collected.If OMB believes that an administrative cap should be implemented, it would be proposed in a subsequent notice. Other Comment: Attachment C of the Circular should be updated since a few listed organizations no longer exist. Response: OMB agrees. Attachment C is updated to delete those organizations that no longer exist or are no longer exempted from OMB Circular A-122. Franklin D. Raines Director Attachments A,B and C of Circular A-122 are revised as follows: A. Attachment A 1. Add subparagraph 3 to paragraph C ("Indirect Costs"). 3. Indirect costs shall be classified within two broad categories: "Facilities" and"Administration." "Facilities" is defined as depreciation and use allowances on buildings, equipment and capital improvement, interest on debt associated with certain buildings, equipment and capital improvements, and operations and maintenance expenses. "Administration" is defined as general administration and general expenses such as the director's office, accounting,personnel, library expenses and all other types of expenditures not listed specifically under one of the subcategories of"Facilities" (including cross allocations from other pools, where applicable). See indirect cost rate reporting requirements in subparagraphs D.2.e and D.3.g. 2. Add subparagraph 2.e to paragraph D. • e. For an organization that receives more than$1-0 million in Federal funding of direct costs in a fiscal year, a breakout of the indirect cost component into two broad categories, Facilities and Administration as defined in subparagraph C.3, is required. The rate in each case shall be stated as the percentage which the amount of the particular indirect cost category(i.e.,Facilities or Administration) is of the distribution base identified with that category. 3. Replace subparagraph D.3 with the following: 3. Multiple allocation base method. a. General. Where an organization's indirect costs benefit its major functions in varying degrees, indirect costs shall be accumulated into separate cost groupings, as described in subparagraph b. Each grouping shall then be allocated individually to benefitting functions by means of a base which best measures the relative benefits. The default allocation bases by cost pool are described in subparagraph c. 9 of 63 6/21/00 2:34 PM l direct cost base, described in subparagraph D.3.f of the Circular,includes the first $25,000 of each subgrant or subcontract regardless of the period covered by the subgrant or subcontract. Subgrant or subcontract costs above$25,000 shall be excluded from the modified total direct cost base. For example, for a$300,000 subgrant that lasts three years, only the first$25,000 incurred on the award should be included in the modified total direct cost base. Administrative Cap of 26 percent Comment: Most commenters strongly opposed the 26 percent administrative cap stating that such limitation on cost reimbursement is arbitrary, capricious, and unnecessary.

Identification of indirect costs. Cost groupings shall be established so as to permit the allocation of each grouping on the basis of benefits provided to the major functions. Each grouping shall constitute a pool of expenses that are of like character in terms of functions they benefit and in terms of the allocation base which best measures the relative benefits provided to each function. The groupings are classified within the two broad categories: "Facilities" and "Administration," as described in subparagraph C.3. The indirect cost pools are defined as follows: (1)Depreciation and use allowances. The expenses under this heading are the portion of the costs of the organization's buildings, capital improvements to land and buildings, and equipment which are computed in accordance with paragraph 11 of Attachment B ("Depreciation and use allowances"). (2) Interest. Interest on debt associated with certain buildings, equipment and capital improvements are computed in accordance with paragraph 23 of Attachment B ("Interest, fund raising, and investment management costs"). (3) Operation and maintenance expenses. The expenses under this heading are those that have been incurred for the administration, operation, maintenance,preservation, and protection of the organization's physical plant. They include expenses normally incurred for such items as:janitorial and utility services; repairs and ordinary or normal alterations of buildings, furniture and equipment; care of grounds; maintenance and operation of buildings and other plant facilities; security; earthquake and disaster preparedness; environmental safety; hazardous waste disposal; property, liability and other insurance relating to property; space and capital leasing; facility planning and management; and, central receiving. The operation and maintenance expenses category shall also include its allocable share of fringe benefit costs, depreciation and use allowances, and interest costs. (4) General administration and general expenses. The expenses under this heading are those that have been incurred for the overall general executive and administrative offices of the organization and other expenses of a general nature which do not relate solely to any major function of the organization. This category shall also include its allocable share of fringe benefit costs, operation and maintenance expense, depreciation and use allowances, and interest costs. Examples of this category include central offices, such as the director's office, the office of finance,business services,budget and planning, personnel, safety and risk management, general counsel, management information systems, and library costs. In developing this cost pool, special care should be exercised to ensure that costs incurred for the same purpose in like circumstances are treated consistently as either direct or indirect costs. For example, salaries of technical staff, project supplies, project publication, telephone toll charges, computer costs, travel costs, and specialized services costs shall be treated as direct costs wherever identifiable to a particular program. The salaries and wages of administrative and pooled clerical staff should normally be treated as indirect costs. Direct charging of these costs may be appropriate where a major project or activity explicitly requires and budgets for administrative or clerical services and other individuals involved can be identified with the program or activity. Items such as office supplies,postage, local telephone costs, periodicals and memberships should normally be treated as indirect costs. c. Allocation bases. Actual conditions shall be taken into account in selecting the base to be used in allocating the expenses in each grouping to benefitting functions. The essential consideration in selecting a method or a base is that it is the one best suited for assigning the pool of costs to cost objectives in accordance with benefits derived; a traceable cause and effect relationship; or logic and reason, where neither the cause nor the effect of the relationship is determinable. When an allocation can be made by assignment of a cost grouping directly to the function benefited, the allocation shall be made in that manner. When the expenses in a cost grouping are more general in nature, the allocation shall be-made 10of63 6/21/00 2:34 PM ork on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. In the event the Employment and Training Administration withdraws approval of a training program, the contractor will no longer be permitted to utilize trainees at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved.

The distribution shall be made in accordance with the bases described herein unless it can be demonstrated that the use of a different base would result in a more equitable allocation of the costs, or that a more readily available base would not increase the costs charged to sponsored awards. The results of special cost studies (such as an engineering utility study) shall not be used to determine and allocate the indirect costs to sponsored awards. (1) Depreciation and use allowances. Depreciation and use allowances expenses shall be allocated in the following manner: (a) Depreciation or use allowances on buildings used exclusively in the conduct of a single function, and on capital improvements and equipment used in such buildings, shall be assigned to that function. (b) Depreciation or use allowances on buildings used for more than one function, and on capital improvements and equipment used in such buildings, shall be allocated to the individual functions performed in each building on the basis of usable square feet of space, excluding common areas, such as hallways, stairwells, and restrooms. (c) Depreciation or use allowances on buildings, capital improvements and equipment related space(e.g., individual rooms, and laboratories)used jointly by more than one function(as determined by the users of the space) shall be treated as follows. The cost of each jointly used unit of space shall be allocated to the benefitting functions on the basis of: (i)the employees and other users on a full-time equivalent(FTE)basis or salaries and wages of those individual functions benefitting from the use of that space; or (ii) organization-wide employee FTEs or salaries and wages applicable to the benefitting functions of the organization. (d)Depreciation or use allowances on certain capital improvements to land, such as paved parking areas, fences, sidewalks, and the like, not included in the cost of buildings, shall be allocated to user categories on a FTE basis and distributed to major functions in proportion to the salaries and wages of all employees applicable to the functions. (2) Interest. Interest costs shall be allocated in the same manner as the depreciation or use allowances on the buildings, equipment and capital equipments to which the interest relates. (3) Operation and maintenance expenses. Operation and maintenance expenses shall be allocated in the same manner as the depreciation and use allowances. (4) General administration and general expenses. General administration and general expenses shall be allocated to benefitting functions based on modified total direct costs(MTDC), as described in subparagraph D.3.f. The expenses included in this category could be grouped first according to major functions of the organization to which they render services or provide benefits. The aggregate expenses of each group shall then be allocated to benefitting functions based on MTDC. d. Order of distribution. (1)Indirect cost categories consisting of depreciation and use allowances, interest, operation and maintenance, and general administration and general expenses shall be allocated in that order to the ilof63 6/211 Z:34 PM gets for administrative or clerical services and other individuals involved can be identified with the program or activity. Items such as office supplies,postage, local telephone costs, periodicals and memberships should normally be treated as indirect costs. c. Allocation bases.

Other cost categories could be allocated in the order determined to be most appropriate by the organization. When cross allocation of costs is made as provided in subparagraph(2),this order of allocation does not apply. (2)Normally, an indirect cost category will be considered closed once it has been allocated to other cost objectives, and costs shall not be subsequently allocated to it. However, a cross allocation of costs between two or more indirect costs categories could be used if such allocation will result in a more equitable allocation of costs. If a cross allocation is used, an appropriate modification to the composition of the indirect cost categories is required. e. Application of indirect cost rate or rates. Except where a special indirect cost rate(s) is required in accordance with subparagraph D.5, the separate groupings of indirect costs allocated to each major function shall be aggregated and treated as a common pool for that function. The costs in the common pool shall then be distributed to individual awards included in that function by use of a single indirect cost rate. f. Distribution basis. Indirect costs shall be distributed to applicable sponsored awards and other benefitting activities within each major function on the basis of MTDC. MTDC consists of all salaries and wages, fringe benefits, materials and supplies, services,travel, and subgrants and subcontracts up to the first $25,000 of each subgrant or subcontract(regardless of the period covered by the subgrant or subcontract). Equipment, capital expenditures, charges for patient care,rental costs and the portion in excess of$25,000 shall be excluded from MTDC. Participant support costs shall generally be excluded from MTDC. Other items may only be excluded when the Federal cost cognizant agency determines that an exclusion is necessary to avoid a serious inequity in the distribution of indirect costs. g. Individual Rate Components. An indirect cost rate shall be determined for each separate indirect cost pool developed. The rate in each case shall be stated as the percentage which the amount of the particular indirect cost pool is of the distribution base identified with that pool. Each indirect cost rate negotiation or determination agreement shall include development of the rate for each indirect cost pool as well as the overall indirect cost rate. The indirect cost pools shall be classified within two broad categories: "Facilities" and "Administration," as described in subparagraph C.3. B.

Supersession. This Circular supersedes cost principles issued by individual agencies for non-profit organizations. 3. Applicability. a. These principles shall be used by all Federal agencies in determining the costs of work performed by non-profit organizations under grants, cooperative agreements, cost reimbursement contracts, and other contracts in which costs are used in pricing, administration, or settlement. All of these instruments are hereafter referred to as awards. The principles do not apply to awards under which an organization is not required to account to the Federal Government for actual costs incurred. b. All cost reimbursement subawards(subgrants, subcontracts, etc.) are subject to those Federal cost principles applicable to the particular organization concerned. Thus, if a subaward is to a non-profit organization,this Circular shall apply; if a subaward is to a commercial organization, the cost principles applicable to commercial concerns shall apply; if a subaward is to a college or university, Circular A-21 shall apply; if a subaward is to a State, local, or federally-recognized Indian tribal government, Circular A-87 shall apply. 4. Definitions. a. Non-profit organization means any corporation, trust, association, cooperative, or other organization which: (1) is operated primarily for scientific, educational, service, charitable, or similar purposes in the public interest; (2) is not organized primarily for profit; and (3) uses its net proceeds to maintain, improve, and/or expand its operations. For this purpose,the term "non-profit organization" excludes(i) colleges and universities; (ii) hospitals; (iii) State, local, and federally-recognized Indian tribal governments; and(iv)those non-profit organizations which are excluded from coverage of this Circular in accordance with paragraph 5. b. Prior approval means securing the awarding-agency's permission in advance to incur cost for those items that are designated as requiring prior approval by the Circular. Generally this permission will be in writing. Where an item of cost requiring prior approval is specified in the budget of an award, approval of the budget constitutes approval of that cost. 5. Exclusion of some non-profit organizations. Some non-profit organizations, because of their size and nature of operations,can be considered to be similar to commercial concerns for purpose of applicability of cost principles. Such non-profit organizations shall operate under Federal cost principles applicable to commercial concerns. A listing of these organizations is contained in Attachment C. Other organizations may be added from time to time. 6. Responsibilities. Agencies responsible for administering programs that involve awards to non-profit organizations shall implement the provisions of this Circular. Upon request, implementing instruction shall be furnished to OMB. Agencies shall designate a liaison official to serve as the agency representative on -- matters relating to the implementation of this Circular. The name and title of such representative shall 21of63 6/21/00 2:34 PM e sponsored award and approved by awarding agencies. 17 of 63 6/21/00 2:34 PM 3 6/211 Z:34 PM gets for administrative or clerical services and other individuals involved can be identified with the program or activity. Items such as office supplies,postage, local telephone costs, periodicals and memberships should normally be treated as indirect costs. c. Allocation bases. Actual conditions shall be taken into account in selecting the base to be used in allocating the expenses in each grouping to benefitting functions. The essential consideration in selecting a method or a base is that it is the one best suited for assigning the pool of costs to cost objectives in accordance with benefits derived; a traceable cause and effect relationship; or logic and reason, where neither the cause nor the effect of the relationship is determinable. When an allocation can be made by assignment of a cost grouping directly to the function benefited, the allocation shall be made in that manner.

Special indirect cost rates E.Negotiation and Approval of Indirect Cost Rates 1.Definitions 2.Negotiation and approval of rates ATTACHMENT A Circular No. A-122 GENERAL PRINCIPLES A. Basic Considerations 1. Composition of total costs. The total cost of an award is the sum of the allowable direct and allocable indirect costs less any applicable credits. 2.Factors affecting allowability of costs. To be allowable under an award, costs must meet the following general criteria: a. Be reasonable for the performance of the award and be allocable thereto under these principles. b. Conform to any limitations or exclusions set forth in these principles or in the award as to types or amount of cost items. c. Be consistent with policies and procedures that apply uniformly to both federally-financed and other activities of the organization. d. Be accorded consistent treatment. e. Be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles(GAAP). f.Not be included as a cost or used to meet cost sharing or matching requirements of any other. federally-financed program in either the current or a prior period. g.Be adequately documented. 3. Reasonable costs. A cost is reasonable if, in its nature or amount, it does not exceed that which would be incurred by a prudent person under the circumstances prevailing at the time the decision was made to incur the costs. The question of the reasonableness of specific costs must be scrutinized with particular care in connection with organizations or separate divisions thereof which receive the preponderance of their support from awards made by Federal agencies. In determining the reasonableness of a given cost, consideration shall be given to: a. Whether the cost is of a type generally recognized as ordinary and necessary for the operation of the ---. organization or the performance of the award. 6/21/00 2:34 PM 23 of 63 g prior approval by the Circular. Generally this permission will be in writing. Where an item of cost requiring prior approval is specified in the budget of an award, approval of the budget constitutes approval of that cost. 5. Exclusion of some non-profit organizations. Some non-profit organizations, because of their size and nature of operations,can be considered to be similar to commercial concerns for purpose of applicability of cost principles. Such non-profit organizations shall operate under Federal cost principles applicable to commercial concerns. A listing of these organizations is contained in Attachment C. Other organizations may be added from time to time. 6. Responsibilities. Agencies responsible for administering programs that involve awards to non-profit organizations shall implement the provisions of this Circular. Upon request, implementing instruction shall be furnished to OMB. Agencies shall designate a liaison official to serve as the agency representative on -- matters relating to the implementation of this Circular. The name and title of such representative shall 21of63 6/21/00 2:34 PM e sponsored award and approved by awarding agencies. 17 of 63 6/21/00 2:34 PM 3 6/211 Z:34 PM gets for administrative or clerical services and other individuals involved can be identified with the program or activity.

Whether the individuals concerned acted with prudence in the circumstances, considering their responsibilities to the organization, its members, employees, and clients, the public at large, and the Federal Government. d. Significant deviations from the established practices of the organization which may unjustifiably increase the award costs. 4.Allocable costs. a. A cost is allocable to a particular cost objective, such as a grant,contract,project, service, or other activity, in accordance with the relative benefits received. A cost is allocable to a Federal award if it is treated consistently with other costs incurred for the same purpose in like circumstances and if it: (1) Is incurred specifically for the award. (2) Benefits both the award and other work and can be distributed in reasonable proportion to the benefits received, or (3) Is necessary to the overall operation of the organization, although a direct relationship to any particular cost objective cannot be shown. b. Any cost allocable to a particular award or other cost objective under these principles may not be shifted to other Federal awards to overcome funding deficiencies, or to avoid restrictions imposed by law or by the terms of the award. 5.Applicable credits. a. The term applicable credits refers to those receipts, or reduction of expenditures which operate to offset or reduce expense items that are allocable to awards as direct or indirect costs. Typical examples of such transactions are: purchase discounts, rebates or allowances, recoveries or indemnities on losses,insurance refunds, and adjustments of overpayments or erroneous charges. To the extent that such credits accruing or received by the organization relate to allowable cost, they shall be credited to the Federal Government either as a cost reduction or cash refund, as appropriate. b. In some instances, the amounts received from the Federal Government to finance organizational activities or-service operations should be treated as applicable credits. Specifically, the concept of netting such credit items against related expenditures should be applied by the organization in determining the rates or amounts to be charged to Federal awards for services rendered whenever the facilities or other. resources used in providing such-services have been financed directly, in whole or in part, by Federal funds. c. For rules covering program income(i.e., gross income earned from federally-supported activities) see Sec. _.24 of Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-110, "Uniform Administrative Requirements for Grants and Agreements with Institutions of Higher Education,Hospitals, and Other Non-Profit Organizations." 24 of 63 6/21/00 2:34 PM MB.

Under any given award, the reasonableness and allocability of certain items of costs may be difficult to determine. This is particularly true in connection with organizations that receive a preponderance of their support from Federal agencies. In order to avoid subsequent disallowance or dispute based on unreasonableness or nonallocability, it is often desirable to seek a written agreement with the cognizant or awarding agency in advance of the incurrence of special or unusual costs. The absence of an advance agreement on any element of cost will not,in itself, affect the reasonableness or allocability of that element. 7. Conditional exemptions. a. OMB authorizes conditional exemption from OMB administrative requirements and cost principles circulars for certain Federal programs with statutorily-authorized consolidated planning and consolidated administrative funding, that are identified by a Federal agency and approved by the head of the Executive department or establishment. A Federal agency shall consult with OMB during its consideration of whether to grant such an exemption. b. To promote efficiency in State and local program administration, when Federal non-entitlement programs with common purposes have specific statutorily-authorized consolidated planning and consolidated administrative funding and where most of the State agency's resources come from non-Federal sources, Federal agencies may exempt these covered State-administered, non-entitlement grant programs from certain OMB grants management requirements. The exemptions would be from all but the allocability of costs provisions of OMB Circulars A-87 (Attachment A, subsection C.3), "Cost Principles for State, Local, and Indian Tribal Governments," A-21 (Section C, subpart 4), "Cost Principles for Educational Institutions," and A-122 (Attachment A, subsection A.4), "Cost Principles for Non-Profit Organizations," and from all of the administrative requirements provisions of OMB Circular A-110, "Uniform Administrative Requirements for.Grants and Agreements with Institutions of Higher Education, Hospitals, and Other Non-Profit Organizations," and the agencies'grants management common rule. c. When a Federal agency provides this flexibility, as a prerequisite to a State's exercising this option, a State must adopt its own written fiscal and administrative requirements for expending and accounting for all funds,which are consistent with the provisions of OMB Circular A-87, and extend such policies to all subrecipients. These fiscal and administrative requirements must be sufficiently specific to ensure that: funds are used in compliance with all applicable Federal statutory and regulatory provisions,costs are reasonable and necessary for operating these programs, and funds are not be used for general expenses required to carry out other responsibilities of a State or its subrecipients. B. Direct Costs 1. Direct costs are those that can be identified specifically with a particular final cost objective, i.e., a particular award,project, service, or other direct activity of an organization. However, a cost may not be assigned to an award as a direct cost if any other cost incurred for the same purpose, in like circumstance, has been allocated to an award as an indirect cost. Costs identified specifically with awards are direct costs of the awards and are to be assigned directly thereto. Costs identified specifically with other final cost objectives of the organization are direct costs of those cost objectives and are not to be assigned to other awards directly or indirectly. 2. Any direct cost of a minor amount may be treated as an indirect cost for reasons of practicality where the accounting treatment for such cost is consistently applied to all final cost objectives. 3. The cost of certain activities are not allowable as charges to Federal awards (see, for example, 25 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM relationship; or logic and reason, where neither the cause nor the effect of the relationship is determinable. When an allocation can be made by assignment of a cost grouping directly to the function benefited, the allocation shall be made in that manner. When the expenses in a cost grouping are more general in nature, the allocation shall be-made 10of63 6/21/00 2:34 PM ork on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. In the event the Employment and Training Administration withdraws approval of a training program, the contractor will no longer be permitted to utilize trainees at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved. (iii) Equal employment opportunity.

However, even though these costs are unallowable for purposes of computing charges to Federal awards, they nonetheless must be treated as direct costs for purposes of determining indirect cost rates and be allocated their share of the organization's indirect costs if they represent activities which(1) include the salaries of personnel, (2) occupy space, and(3)benefit from the organization's indirect costs. 4. The costs of activities performed primarily as a service to members, clients, or the general public when significant and necessary to the organization's mission must be treated as direct costs whether ornot allowable and be allocated an equitable share of indirect costs. Some examples of these types of activities include: a. Maintenance of membership rolls, subscriptions,publications, and related functions. b. Providing services and information to members, legislative or administrative bodies, or the public. c. Promotion, lobbying, and other forms of public relations. d. Meetings and conferences except those held to conduct the general administration of the organization. e. Maintenance,protection, and investment of special funds not used in operation of the organization. f. Administration of group benefits on behalf of members or clients, including life and hospital insurance, annuity or retirement plans, financial aid, etc. C. Indirect Costs 1. Indirect costs are those that have been incurred for common or joint objectives and cannot be readily identified with a particular final cost objective. Direct cost of minor amounts may be treated as indirect costs under the conditions described in subparagraph B.2. After direct costs have been determined and assigned directly to awards or other work as appropriate, indirect costs are those remaining to be allocated to benefiting cost objectives. A cost may not be allocated to an award as an indirect cost if any other cost incurred for the same purpose, in like circumstances,has been assigned to an award as a direct cost. 2. Because of the diverse characteristics and accounting practices of non-profit organizations, it is not possible to specify the types of cost which may be classified as indirect cost in all situations. However, typical examples of indirect cost for many non-profit organizations may include depreciation or use allowances on buildings and equipment, the costs of operating and maintaining facilities, and general administration and general expenses, such as the salaries and expenses of executive officers,personnel administration, and accounting. 3. Indirect costs shall be classified within two broad categories: "Facilities" and "Administration." "Facilities" is defined as depreciation and use allowances on buildings, equipment and capital improvement, interest on debt associated with certain buildings, equipment and capital improvements, and operations and maintenance expenses. "Administration" is defined as general administration and general expenses such as the director's office, accounting, personnel, library expenses and all other types of expenditures not listed specifically under one of the subcategories of"Facilities" (including cross allocations from other pools, where applicable).

Allocation of Indirect Costs and Determination of Indirect Cost Rates 26 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM sts identified specifically with other final cost objectives of the organization are direct costs of those cost objectives and are not to be assigned to other awards directly or indirectly. 2. Any direct cost of a minor amount may be treated as an indirect cost for reasons of practicality where the accounting treatment for such cost is consistently applied to all final cost objectives. 3. The cost of certain activities are not allowable as charges to Federal awards (see, for example, 25 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM relationship; or logic and reason, where neither the cause nor the effect of the relationship is determinable.

General. a. Where a non-profit organization has only one major function, or where all its major functions benefit from its indirect costs to approximately the same degree, the allocation of indirect costs and the computation of an indirect cost rate may be accomplished through simplified allocation procedures, as described in subparagraph 2. b. Where an organization has several major functions which benefit from its indirect costs in varying degrees, allocation of indirect costs may require the accumulation of such costs into separate cost groupings which then are allocated individually to benefiting functions by means of a base which best measures the relative degree of benefit. The indirect costs allocated to each function are then distributed to individual awards and other activities included in that function by means of an indirect cost rate(s). c. The determination of what constitutes an organization's major functions will depend on its purpose in being; the types of services it renders to the public, its clients, and its members; and the amount of effort it devotes to such activities as fundraising,public information and membership activities. d. Specific methods for allocating indirect costs and computing indirect cost rates along with the conditions under which each method should be used are described in subparagraphs 2 through 5. e. The base period for the allocation of indirect costs is the period in which such costs are incurred and accumulated for allocation to work performed in that period. The base period normally should coincide with the organization's fiscal year but,in any event, shall be so selected as to avoid inequities in the allocation of the costs. 2. Simplified allocation method. a. Where an organization's major functions benefit from its indirect costs to approximately the same degree, the allocation of indirect costs may be accomplished by(i) separating the organization's total costs for the base period as either direct or indirect, and(ii)dividing the total allowable indirect costs (net of applicable credits) by an equitable distribution base. The result of this process is an indirect cost rate which is used to distribute indirect costs to individual awards. The rate should be expressed as the percentage which the total amount of allowable indirect costs bears to the base selected. This method should also be used where an organization has only one major function encompassing a number of individual projects or activities, and may be used where the level of Federal awards to an organization is relatively small. b. Both the direct costs and the indirect costs shall exclude capital expenditures and unallowable costs. However, unallowable costs which represent activities must be included in the direct costs under the conditions described in subparagraph B.3. c. The distribution base may be total direct costs (excluding capital expenditures and other distorting items, such as major subcontracts or subgrants), direct salaries and wages, or other base which results in an equitable distribution. The distribution base shall generally exclude participant support costs as defined in paragraph 34 of Attachment B. d. Except where a special rate(s)is required in accordance with subparagraph 5, the indirect cost rate developed under the above principles is applicable to all awards at the organization. If a special rate(s) is required, appropriate modifications shall be made in order to develop the special rate(s). 7 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM jectives and are not to be assigned to other awards directly or indirectly. 2. Any direct cost of a minor amount may be treated as an indirect cost for reasons of practicality where the accounting treatment for such cost is consistently applied to all final cost objectives. 3.

For an organization that receives more than $10 million in Federal funding of direct costs in a fiscal year, a breakout of the indirect cost component into two broad categories, Facilities and Administration as defined in subparagraph C.3, is required. The rate in each case shall be stated as the percentage which the amount of the particular indirect cost category(i.e., Facilities or Administration) is of the distribution base identified with that category. 3. Multiple allocation base method a. General. Where an organization's indirect costs benefit its major functions in varying degrees, indirect costs shall be accumulated into separate cost groupings, as described in subparagraph b. Each grouping shall then be allocated individually to benefitting functions by means of a base which best measures the relative benefits. The default allocation bases by cost pool are described in subparagraph c. b. Identification of indirect costs. Cost groupings shall be established so as to permit the allocation of each grouping on the basis of benefits provided to the major functions. Each grouping shall constitute a pool of expenses that are of like character in terms of functions they benefit and in terms of the allocation base which best measures the relative benefits provided to each function. The groupings are classified within the two broad categories: "Facilities" and "Administration," as described in subparagraph C.3. The indirect cost pools are defined as follows: (1)Depreciation and use allowances. The expenses under this heading are the portion of the costs of the organization's buildings, capital improvements to land and buildings, and equipment which are computed in accordance with paragraph 11 of Attachment B ("Depreciation and use allowances"). (2)Interest. Interest on debt associated with certain buildings, equipment and capital improvements are computed in accordance with paragraph 23 of Attachment B ("Interest, fundraising, and investment management costs"). (3) Operation and maintenance expenses. The expenses under this heading are those that have been incurred for the administration, operation,maintenance,preservation, and protection of the organization's physical plant. They include expenses normally incurred for such items as:janitorial and utility services; repairs and ordinary or normal alterations of buildings, furniture and equipment; care of grounds; maintenance and operation of buildings and other plant facilities; security; earthquake and disaster preparedness; environmental safety; hazardous waste disposal; property, liability and other insurance relating to property; space and capital leasing; facility planning and management; and, central receiving. The operation and maintenance expenses category shall also include its allocable share of fringe benefit costs, depreciation and use allowances, and interest costs. • (4) General administration and general expenses. The expenses under this heading are those that have been incurred for the overall general executive and administrative offices of the organization and other expenses of a general nature which do not relate solely to any major function of the organization. This category shall also include its allocable share of fringe benefit costs, operation and maintenance expense, depreciation and use allowances, and interest costs. Examples of this category include central offices, such as the director's office, the office of finance, business services, budget and planning, personnel, safety and risk management, general counsel, management information systems, and library costs. In developing this cost pool, special care should be exercised to ensure that costs incurred for the same purpose in like circumstances are treated consistently as either direct or indirect costs. For example, salaries of technical staff, project supplies,project publication, telephone toll charges, computer costs, travel costs, and specialized services costs shall be treated as direct costs wherever identifiable to a 28 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM determinable. When an allocation can be made by assignment of a cost grouping directly to the function benefited, the allocation shall be made in that manner. When the expenses in a cost grouping are more general in nature, the allocation shall be-made 10of63 6/21/00 2:34 PM ork on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed.

The salaries and wages of administrative and pooled clerical staff should normally be treated as indirect costs. Direct charging of these costs may be appropriate where a major project or activity explicitly requires and budgets for administrative or clerical services and other individuals involved can be identified with the program or activity. Items such as office supplies,postage, local telephone costs, periodicals and memberships should normally be treated as indirect costs. c. Allocation bases. Actual conditions shall be taken into account in selecting the base to be used in allocating the expenses in each grouping to benefitting functions. The essential consideration in selecting a method or a base is that it is the one best suited for assigning the pool of costs to cost objectives in accordance with benefits derived; a traceable cause and effect relationship; or logic and reason, where neither the cause nor the effect of the relationship is determinable. When an allocation can be made by assignment of a cost grouping directly to the function benefited, the allocation shall be made in that manner. When the expenses in a cost grouping are more general in nature, the allocation shall be made through the use of a selected base which produces results that are equitable to both the Federal Government and the organization. The distribution shall be made in accordance with the bases described herein unless it can be demonstrated that the use of a different base would result in a more equitable allocation of the costs, or that a more readily available base would not increase the costs charged to sponsored awards. The results of special cost studies(such as an engineering utility study) shall not be used to determine and allocate the indirect costs to sponsored awards. (1)Depreciation and use allowances. Depreciation and use allowances expenses shall be allocated in the following manner: (a)Depreciation or use allowances on buildings used exclusively in the conduct of a single function, and on capital improvements and equipment used in such buildings, shall be assigned to that function. (b)Depreciation or use allowances on buildings used for more than one function, and on capital improvements and equipment used in such buildings, shall be allocated to the individual functions performed in each building on the basis of usable square feet of space, excluding common areas, such as hallways, stairwells, and restrooms. (c) Depreciation or use allowances on buildings, capital improvements and equipment related space(e.g., individual rooms, and laboratories)used jointly by more than one function(as determined by the users of the space) shall be treated as follows. The cost of each jointly used unit of space shall be allocated to the benefitting functions on the basis of: (i) the employees and other users on a full-time equivalent(FTE)basis or salaries and wages of those individual functions benefitting from the use of that space; or (ii) organization-wide employee FTEs or salaries and wages applicable to the benefitting functions of the organization. (d)Depreciation or use allowances on certain capital improvements to land, such as paved parking areas, fences, sidewalks, and the like,not included in the cost of buildings, shall be allocated to user categories on a FTE basis and distributed to major functions in proportion to the salaries and wages of all employees applicable to the functions. (2) Interest. Interest costs shall be allocated in the same manner as the depreciation or use allowances on _. the buildings, equipment and capital equipments to which the interest relates. 29 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM rpose in like circumstances are treated consistently as either direct or indirect costs. For example, salaries of technical staff, project supplies,project publication, telephone toll charges, computer costs, travel costs, and specialized services costs shall be treated as direct costs wherever identifiable to a 28 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM determinable. When an allocation can be made by assignment of a cost grouping directly to the function benefited, the allocation shall be made in that manner.

Operation and maintenance expenses shall be allocated in the same manner as the depreciation and use allowances. (4) General administration and general expenses. General administration and general expenses shall be allocated to benefitting functions based on modified total direct costs (MTDC), as described in subparagraph D.3.f. The expenses included in this category could be grouped first according to major functions of the organization to which they render services or provide benefits. The aggregate expenses of each group shall then be allocated to benefitting functions based on MTDC. d. Order of distribution. (1) Indirect cost categories consisting of depreciation and use allowances, interest, operation and maintenance, and general administration and general expenses shall be allocated in that order to the remaining indirect cost categories as well as to the major functions of the organization. Other cost categories could be allocated in the order determined to be most appropriate by the organization. When cross allocation of costs is made as provided in subparagraph (2), this order of allocation does not apply. (2)Normally, an indirect cost category will be considered closed once it has been allocated to other cost objectives, and costs shall not be subsequently allocated to it.However, a cross allocation of costs between two or more indirect costs categories could be used if such allocation will result in a more equitable allocation of costs. If a cross allocation is used, an appropriate modification to the composition of the indirect cost categories is required. e. Application of indirect cost rate or rates. Except where a special indirect cost rate(s)is required in accordance with subparagraph D.5, the separate groupings of indirect costs allocated to each major function shall be aggregated and treated as a common pool for that function. The costs in the common pool shall then be distributed to individual awards included in that function by use of a single indirect cost rate. f. Distribution basis. Indirect costs shall be distributed to applicable sponsored awards and other benefitting activities within each major function on the basis of MTDC. MTDC consists of all salaries and wages, fringe benefits, materials and supplies, services, travel, and subgrants and subcontracts up to the first $25,000 of each subgrant or subcontract(regardless of the period covered by the subgrant or subcontract). Equipment, capital expenditures, charges for patient care, rental costs and the portion in excess of$25,000 shall be excluded from MTDC. Participant support costs shall generally be excluded from MTDC. Other items may only be excluded when the Federal cost cognizant agency determines that an exclusion is necessary to avoid a serious inequity in the distribution of indirect costs. g. Individual Rate Components. An indirect cost rate shall be determined for each separate indirect cost pool developed. The rate in each case shall be stated as the percentage which the amount of the particular indirect cost pool is of the distribution base identified with that pool. Each indirect cost rate negotiation or determination agreement shall include development of the rate for each indirect cost pool as well as the overall indirect cost rate. The indirect cost pools shall be classified within two broad categories: "Facilities" and "Administration," as described in subparagraph C.3. 4. Direct allocation method. a. Some non-profit organizations treat all costs as direct costs except general administration and general expenses. These organizations generally separate their costs into three basic categories: (i) General administration and general expenses, (ii) fundraising, and(iii) other direct functions(includingprojects performed under Federal awards). Joint costs, such as depreciation,rental costs, operation and maintenance 30 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM travel costs, and specialized services costs shall be treated as direct costs wherever identifiable to a 28 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM determinable. When an allocation can be made by assignment of a cost grouping directly to the function benefited, the allocation shall be made in that manner. When the expenses in a cost grouping are more general in nature, the allocation shall be-made 10of63 6/21/00 2:34 PM ork on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. In the event the Employment and Training Administration withdraws approval of a training program, the contractor will no longer be permitted to utilize trainees at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved. (iii) Equal employment opportunity.

This method is acceptable, provided each joint cost is prorated using a base which accurately measures the benefits provided to each award or other activity. The bases must be established in accordance with reasonable criteria, and be supported by current data..This method is compatible with the Standards of Accounting and Financial Reporting for Voluntary Health and Welfare Organizations issued jointly by the National Health Council,Inc., the National Assembly of Voluntary Health and Social Welfare Organizations, and the United Way of America. c. Under this method, indirect costs consist exclusively of general administration and general expenses. In all other respects, the organization's indirect cost rates shall be computed in the same manner as that described in subparagraph 2. 5. Special indirect cost rates. In some instances, a single indirect cost rate for all activities of an organization or for each major function of the organization may not be appropriate, since it would not take into account those different factors which may substantially affect the indirect costs applicable to a particular segment of work. For this purpose, a particular segment of work may be that performed under a single award or it may consist of work under a group of awards performed in a common environment. These factors may include the physical location of the work, the level of administrative support required, the nature of the facilities or other resources employed,the scientific disciplines or technical skills involved, the organizational arrangements used, or any combination thereof. When a particular segment of work is performed in an environment which appears to generate a significantly different level of indirect costs,provisions should be made for a separate indirect cost pool applicable to such work. The separate indirect cost pool should be developed during the course of the regular allocation process, and the separate indirect cost rate resulting therefrom should be used,provided it is determined that(i)the rate differs significantly from that which would have been obtained under subparagraphs 2,3, and 4, and (ii)the volume of work to which the rate would apply is material. E. Negotiation and Approval of Indirect Cost Rates 1. Definitions. As used in this section,the following terms have the meanings set forth below: a. Cognizant agency means the Federal agency responsible for negotiating and approving indirect cost rates for a non-profit organization on behalf of all Federal agencies. b. Predetermined rate means an indirect cost rate, applicable to a specified current or future period, usually the organization's fiscal year. The rate is based on an estimate of the costs to be incurred during the period. A predetermined rate is not subject to adjustment. c. Fixed rate means an indirect cost rate which has the same characteristics as a predetermined rate, except that the difference between the estimated costs and the actual costs of the period covered by the rate is carried forward as an adjustment to the rate computation of a subsequent period. d. Final rate means an indirect cost rate applicable to a specified past period which is based on the actual costs of the period. A final rate is not subject to adjustment. e. Provisional rate or billing rate means a temporary indirect cost rate applicable to a specified period which is used for funding, interim reimbursement, and reporting indirect costs on awards pending the establishment of a final rate for the period. r. a ./3 31 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM 30 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM travel costs, and specialized services costs shall be treated as direct costs wherever identifiable to a 28 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM determinable.

Indirect cost proposal means the documentation prepared by an organization to substantiate its claim for the reimbursement of indirect costs. This proposal provides the basis for the review and negotiation leading to the establishment of an organization's indirect cost rate. g. Cost objective means a function, organizational subdivision, contract, grant, or other work unit for which cost data are desired and for which provision is made to accumulate and measure the cost of processes,projects,jobs and capitalized projects. 2. Negotiation and approval of rates. a.Unless different arrangements are agreed to by the agencies concerned, the Federal agency with the largest dollar value of awards with an organization will be designated as the cognizant agency for the negotiation and approval of the indirect cost rates and,where necessary, other rates such as fringe benefit and computer charge-out rates. Once an agency is assigned cognizance for a particular non-profit organization, the assignment will not be changed unless there is a major long-term shift in the dollar volume of the Federal awards to the organization. All concerned Federal agencies shall be given the opportunity to participate in the negotiation process but, after a rate has been agreed upon, it will be accepted by all Federal agencies. When a Federal agency has reason to believe that special operating factors affecting its awards necessitate special indirect cost`rates in accordance with subparagraph D.5, it will,prior to the time the rates are negotiated,notify the cognizant agency. b. A non-profit organization which has not previously established an indirect cost rate with a Federal agency shall submit its initial indirect cost proposal immediately after the organization is advised that an award will be made and, in no event, later than three months after the effective date of the award. c. Organizations that have previously established indirect cost rates must submit a new indirect cost proposal to the cognizant agency within six months after the close of each fiscal year. d. A predetermined rate may be negotiated for use on awards where there is,reasonable assurance,based on past experience and reliable projection of the organization's costs, that the rate is not likely to exceed a rate based on the organization's actual costs. e. Fixed rates may be negotiated where predetermined rates are not considered appropriate. A fixed rate, however, shall not be negotiated if(i) all or a substantial portion of the organization's awards are expected to expire before the carry-forward adjustment can be made; (ii)the mix of Federal and non-Federal work at the organization is too erratic to permit an equitable carry-forward adjustment; or(iii) the organization's operations fluctuate significantly from year to year. f. Provisional and final rates shall be negotiated where neither predetermined nor fixed rates are appropriate. g. The results of each negotiation shall be formalized in a written agreement between the cognizant agency and the non-profit organization. The cognizant agency shall distribute copies of the agreement to all concerned Federal agencies. h.

Costs of bonding required by the organization in the general conduct of its operations are allowable to the extent that such bonding is in accordance with sound business practice and the rates and premiums are reasonable under the circumstances. 6. Communication costs. Costs incurred for telephone services, local and long distance telephone calls, telegrams, radiograms,postage and the like are allowable. 7. Compensation for personal services. a. Definition. Compensation for personal services includes all compensation paid currently or accrued by the organization for services of employees rendered during the period of the award(except as otherwise provided in subparagraph h). It includes,but is not limited to, salaries, wages, director's and executive committee member's fees, incentive awards, fringe benefits,pension plan costs,allowances for off-site pay, incentive pay, location allowances,hardship pay, and cost of living differentials. b. Allowability. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this paragraph,the costs of such compensation are allowable to the extent that: (1) Total compensation to individual employees is reasonable for the services rendered and conforms to the established policy of the organization consistently applied to both Federal and non-Federal activities; and (2) Charges to awards whether treated as direct or indirect costs are determined and supported as required in this paragraph. c. Reasonableness. (1) When the organization is predominantly engaged in activities other than those sponsored by the Federal Government, compensation for employees on federally-sponsored work will be considered reasonable to the extent that it is consistent with that paid for similar work in the organization's other activities. (2) When the organization is predominantly engaged in federally-sponsored activities and in cases where the kind of employees required for the Federal activities are not found in the organization's other activities, compensation for employees on federally-sponsored work will be considered reasonable to the extent that it is comparable to that paid for similar work in the labor markets in which the organization competes for the kind of employees involved. d. Special considerations in determining allowability. Certain conditions require special consideration and possible limitations in determining costs under Federal awards where amounts or types of compensation appear unreasonable. Among such conditions are the following: (1) Compensation to members of non-profit organizations, trustees, directors, associates, officers, or the immediate families thereof. Determination should be made that such compensation is reasonable for the actual personal services rendered rather than a distribution of earnings in excess of costs. (2) Any change in an organization's compensation policy resulting in a substantial increase in the organization's level of compensation,particularly when it was concurrent with an increase in the ratio of Federal awards to other activities of the organization or any change in the treatment of allowability of 36 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM gency and the non-profit organization, the dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the appeals procedures of the cognizant agency. 32 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM d past period which is based on the actual costs of the period.

Fringe benefits. (1) Fringe benefits in the form of regular compensation paid to employees during periods of authorized absences from the job, such as vacation leave, sick leave, military leave, and the like, are allowable, provided such costs are absorbed by all organization activities in proportion to the relative amount of time or effort actually devoted to each. (2)Fringe benefits in the form of employer contributions or expenses for social security, employee insurance,workmen's compensation insurance,pension plan costs (see subparagraph h), and the like, are allowable,provided such benefits are granted in accordance with established written organization policies. Such benefits whether treated as indirect costs or as direct costs, shall be distributed to particular awards and other activities in a manner consistent with the pattern of benefits accruing to the individuals or group of employees whose salaries and wages are chargeable to such awards and other activities. (3) (a)Provisions for a reserve under a self-insurance program for unemployment compensation or workers'compensation are allowable to the extent that the provisions represent reasonable estimates of the liabilities for such compensation, and the types of coverage,extent of coverage, and rates and premiums would have been allowable had insurance been purchased to cover the risks. However, provisions for self-insured liabilities which do not become payable for more than one year after the provision is made shall not exceed the present value of the liability. (b) Where an organization follows a consistent policy of expensing actual payments to, or on behalf of, employees or former employees for unemployment compensation or workers' compensation, such payments are allowable in the year of payment with the prior approval of the awarding agency,provided they are allocated to all activities of the organization. (4) Costs of insurance on the lives of trustees, officers, or other employees holding positions of similar responsibility are allowable only to the extent that the insurance represents additional compensation.

(See subparagraph E.2 of Attachment A.) (2)Reports reflecting the distribution of activity of each employee must be maintained for all staff members (professionals and nonprofessionals)whose compensation is charged, in whole or in part, directly to awards. In addition,in order to support the allocation of indirect costs, such reports must also be maintained for other employees whose work involves two or more functions or activities if a distribution of their compensation between such functions or activities is needed in the determination of the organization's indirect cost rate(s) (e.g., an employee engaged part-time in indirect cost activities and part-time in a direct function). Reports maintained by non-profit organizations to satisfy these requirements must meet the following standards: (a) The reports must reflect an after-the-fact determination of the actual activity of each employee. Budget estimates (i.e., estimates determined before the services are performed)do not qualify as support for charges to awards. 38 of 63 9•'77 PM zation are allowable,provided: (a) Such policies meet the test of reasonableness; (b) The methods of cost allocation are not discriminatory; 37 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM ance with the appeals procedures of the cognizant agency. 32 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM d past period which is based on the actual costs of the period.

The two percent limitation, however,need not be applied to equipment which is merely attached or fastened to the building but not permanently fixed to it and which is used as furnishings or decorations or for specialized purposes (e.g., dentist chairs and dental treatment units, counters, laboratory benches bolted to the floor, dishwashers,carpeting, etc.). Such equipment will be considered as not being permanently fixed to the building if it can be removed without the need for costly or extensive alterations or repairs to the building or the equipment. Equipment that meets these criteria will be subject to the six and two-thirds percent equipment use allowance limitation. e. Where depreciation method is followed, the period of useful service(useful life) established in each case for usable capital assets must take into consideration such factors as type of construction,nature of the equipment used, technological developments in the particular program area, and the renewal and replacement policies followed for the individual items or classes of assets involved. The method of depreciation used to assign the cost of an asset(or group of assets)to accounting periods shall reflect the pattern of consumption of the asset during its useful life. In the absence of clear evidence indicating that the expected consumption of the asset will be significantly greater or lesser in the early portions of its useful life than in the later portions, the straight-line method shall be presumed to be the appropriate method. Depreciation methods once used shall not be changed unless approved in advance by the cognizant Federal agency. When the depreciation method is introduced for application to assets previously subject to a use allowance, the combination of use allowances and depreciation applicable to such assets must not exceed the total acquisition cost of the assets. When the depreciation method is used for buildings, a building's shell may be segregated from each building component(e.g.,plumbing system,heating, and air conditioning system, etc.) and each item depreciated over its estimated useful life; or the entire building (i.e., the shell and all components) may be treated as a single asset and depreciated over a single useful life. f. When the depreciation method is used for a particular class of assets, no depreciation may be allowed on any such assets that, under subparagraph e,would be viewed as fully depreciated. However, a reasonable use allowance may be negotiated for such assets if warranted after taking into consideration the amount of depreciation previously charged to the Federal Government, the estimated useful life remaining at time of negotiation,the effect of any increased maintenance charges or decreased efficiency due to age, and any other factors pertinent to the utilization of the asset for the purpose contemplated. g. Charges for use allowances or depreciation must be supported by adequate property records and physical inventories must be taken at least once every two years(a statistical sampling basis is acceptable) to ensure that assets exist and are usable and needed. When the depreciation method is followed, adequate depreciation records indicating the amount of depreciation taken each period must also be maintained. 12. Donations. a. Services received.

The value of these services is not reimbursable either as a direct or indirect cost. (2) The value of donated services utilized in the performance of a direct cost activity shall be considered in the determination of the organization's indirect cost rate(s) and, accordingly, shall be allocated a proportionate share of applicable indirect costs when the following circumstances exist: 42 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM grouping are more general in nature, the allocation shall be-made 10of63 6/21/00 2:34 PM ork on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed.

(4) Where donated services directly benefit a project supported by an award, the indirect costs allocated to the services will be considered as a part of the total costs of the project. Such indirect costs may be reimbursed under the award or used to meet cost sharing or matching requirements. (5) The value of the donated services may be used to meet cost sharing or matching requirements under conditions described in Sec._.23 of Circular A-110. Where donated services are treated as indirect costs, indirect cost rates will separate the value of the donations so that reimbursement will not be made. (6) Fair market value of donated services shall be computed as follows: (a) Rates for volunteer services. Rates for volunteers shall be consistent with those regular rates paid for similar work in other activities of the organization. In cases where the kinds of skills involved are not found in other activities of the organization, the rates used shall be consistent with those paid for similar work in the labor market in which the organization competes for such skills. (b) Services donated by other organizations. When an employer donates the services of an employee, these services shall be valued at the employee's regular rate of pay(exclusive of fringe benefits and indirect costs),provided the services are in the same skill for which the employee is normally paid. If the services are not in the same skill for which the employee is normally paid, fair market value shall be computed in accordance with subparagraph (a). b. Goods and space. (1)Donated goods; i.e., expendable personal property/supplies, and donated use of space may be furnished to an organization. The value of the goods and space is not reimbursable either as a direct or indirect cost. (2) The value of the donations may be used to meet cost sharing or matching share requirements under the conditions described in Sec._.23 of Circular A-110. The value of the donations shall be determined in accordance with Sec._.23 of Circular A-110. Where donations are treated as indirect costs, indirect cost rates will separate the value of the donations so that reimbursement will not be made. 13. Employee morale, health, and welfare costs and credits. The costs of house publications, health or first-aid clinics, and/or infirmaries, recreational activities, employees'counseling services, and other expenses incurred in accordance with the organization's established practice or custom for the improvement of working conditions, employer-employee relations, employee morale, and employee performance are allowable. Such costs will be equitably apportioned to all activities of the organization.

(2) Idle facilities means completely unused facilities that are excess to the organization's current needs. (3) Idle capacity means the unused capacity of partially used facilities. It is the difference between that which a facility could achieve under 100 percent operating time on a one-shift basis less operating interruptions resulting from time lost for repairs, setups, unsatisfactory materials, and other normal delays, and the extent to which the facility was actually used to meet demands during the accounting period. A multi-shift basis may be used if it can be shown that this amount of usage could normally be expected for the type of facility involved. (4) Costs of idle facilities or idle capacity means costs such as maintenance,repair,housing,rent, and other related costs, e.g., property taxes, insurance, and depreciation or use allowances. b. The costs of idle facilities are unallowable except to the extent that: (1) They are necessary to meet fluctuations in workload; or (2)Although not necessary to meet fluctuations in workload, they were necessary when acquired and are now idle because of changes in program requirements, efforts to achieve more economical operations, reorganization, termination, or other causes which could not have been reasonably foreseen. Under the exception stated in this subparagraph, costs of idle facilities are allowable for a reasonable period of time, • ordinarily not to exceed one year, depending upon the initiative taken to use, lease, or dispose of such facilities (but see subparagraphs 48.b and d). c.

Upon request, the needs justification must be provided to the Federal agency with cost cognizance authority as a prerequisite to the continued allowability of interest on debt and depreciation related to the facility. The needs justification for the acquisition of a facility should include, at a minimum, the following: A statement of purpose and justification for facility acquisition or replacement A statement as to why current facilities are not adequate A statement of planned future use of the facility A description of the financing agreement to be arranged for the facility A summary of the building contract with estimated cost information and statement of source and use of funds A schedule of planned occupancy dates • (b)For facilities costing over$500,000, the non-profit organization prepares, prior to the acquisition or replacement of the facility, a lease/purchase analysis in accordance with the provisions of Sec._.30 through .37 of Circular A-110,which shows that a financed purchase or capital lease is less costly to the organization than other leasing alternatives, on a net present value basis. Discount rates used should be equal to the non-profit organization's anticipated interest rates and should be no higher than the fair market rate available to the non-profit organization from an unrelated("arm's length")third-party.

The cost comparisons associated with purchasing the facility shall include the estimated purchase price, anticipated operating and maintenance costs (including property taxes, if applicable)not included in the debt financing, less any estimated asset salvage value at the end of the period defined above. The cost comparison for a capital lease shall include the estimated total lease payments, any estimated bargain purchase option, operating and maintenance costs, and taxes not included in the capital leasing arrangement, less any estimated credits due under the lease at the end of the period defined above. Projected operating lease costs shall be based on the anticipated cost of leasing comparable facilities at fair market rates under rental agreements that would be renewed or reestablished over the period defined above, and any expected maintenance costs and allowable property taxes to be borne by the non-profit organization g lzation directly or as part of the lease arrangement. (c) The actual in terest cost claimed is predicated upon interest rates that are no higher than the fair market rate available to the non-profit organization from an unrelated("arm's length") third party. (d) Investment earnings, including interest income, on bond or loan principal,pending payment of the construction or acquisition costs, are used to offset allowable interest cost. Arbitrage earnings reportable to the Internal Revenue Service are not required to be offset against allowable interest costs. (e)Reimbursements are limited to the least costly alternative based on the total cost analysis required under subparagraph (b). For example, if an operating lease is determined to be less costly than purchasing through debt financing, then reimbursement is limited to the amount determined if leasing had been used. In all cases where a lease/purchase analysis is performed, Federal reimbursement shall be based upon the least expensive'alternative. (f)Non-profit organizations are also subject to the following conditions: (i)Interest on debt incurred to finance or refinance assets acquired before or reacquired after the effective date of this Circular is not allowable. (ii)For debt arrangements over$1 million, unless the non-profit organization makes an initial equity contribution to the asset purchase of 25 percent or more,non-profit organizations shall reduce claims for interest expense by an amount equal to imputed interest earnings on excess cash flow,which is to be calculated as follows. Annually,non-profit organizations shall prepare a cumulative (from the inception of the project)report of monthly cash flows that includes inflows and outflows,regardless of the funding source. Inflows consist of depreciation expense, amortization of capitalized construction interest, and annual interest expense. For cash flow calculations, the annual inflow figures shall be divided by the number of months in the year(usually 12)that the building is in service for monthly amounts. Outflows consist of initial equity contributions, debt principal payments (less the pro rata share attributable to the unallowable costs of land) and interest payments. Where cumulative inflows exceed cumulative outflows, interest shall be calculated on the excess inflows for that period and be treated as a reduction to allowable interest expense. The rate of interest to be used to compute earnings on excess cash flows shall be the three month Treasury Bill closing rate as of the last business day of that month. (iii) Substantial relocation of federally-sponsored activities from a facility financed by indebtedness,the cost of which was funded in whole or part through Federal reimbursements, to another facility prior to the expiration of a period of 20 years requires notice to the Federal cognizant agency. The extent of the relocation, the amount of the Federal participation in the financing, and the depreciation and interest charged to date may require negotiation and/or downward adjustments of replacement space charged to Federal programs in the future. 48 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM rdingly, shall be allocated a proportionate share of applicable indirect costs when the following circumstances exist: 42 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM grouping are more general in nature, the allocation shall be-made 10of63 6/21/00 2:34 PM ork on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed.

(2) The necessity of contracting for the service, considering the organization's capability in the particular area. (3) The past pattern of such costs,particularly in the years prior to Federal awards. (4) The impact of Federal awards on the organization's business (i.e.,what new problems have arisen). (5) Whether the proportion of Federal work to the organization's total business is such as to influence the organization in favor of incurring the cost,particularly where the services rendered are not of a continuing nature and have little relationship to work under Federal grants and contracts. (6) Whether the service can be performed more economically by direct employment rather than contracting. (7) The qualifications of the individual or concern rendering the service and the customary fees charged, especially on non-Federal awards. (8) Adequacy of the contractual agreement for the service(e.g., description of the service, estimate of time required, rate of compensation, and termination provisions). c.

(2)Abnormal or mass severance pay is of such a conjectural nature that measurement of costs by means of an accrual will not achieve equity to both parties. Thus, accruals for this purpose are not allowable. . However, the Federal Government recognizes its obligation to participate, to the extent of its fair share, in any specific payment. Thus, allowability will be considered on a case-by-case basis in the event or occurrence. c. Costs incurred in certain severance pay packages(commonly known as "a golden parachute"payment) which are in an amount in excess of the normal severance pay paid by the organization to an employee upon termination of employment and are paid to the employee contingent upon a change in management control over, or ownership of, the organization's assets are unallowable. d.

Any refund of taxes, and any payment to the organization of interest thereon,which were allowed as award costs,will be credited either as a cost reduction or cash refund, as appropriate,to the Federal Government. 52. Termination costs. Termination of awards generally give rise to the incurrence of costs, or the need for special treatment of costs, which would not have arisen had the award not been terminated. Cost principles covering these items are set forth below. They are to be used in conjunction with the other provisions of this Circular in termination situations. a. Common items. The cost of items reasonably usable on the organization's other work shall not be allowable unless the organization submits evidence that it would not retain such items at cost without sustaining a loss. In deciding whether such items are reasonably usable on other work of the organization, the awarding agency should consider the organization's plans and orders for current and scheduled activity. Contemporaneous purchases of common items by the organization shall be regarded as evidence that such items are reasonably usable on the organization's other work. Any acceptance of common items as allocable to the terminated portion of the award shall be limited to the extent that the quantities of such items on hand, in transit, and on order are in excess of the reasonable quantitative requirements of other work. b. Costs continuing after termination. If in a particular case, despite all reasonable efforts by the organization, certain costs cannot be discontinued immediately after the effective date of termination, such costs are generally allowable within the limitations set forth in this Circular, except that any such costs continuing after termination due to the negligent or willful failure of the organization to discontinue such costs shall be unallowable. c.Loss of useful value. Loss of useful value of special tooling, machinery and equipment which was not charged to the award as a capital expenditure is generally allowable if: (1) Such special tooling, machinery, or equipment is not reasonably capable of use in the other work of the organization. (2) The interest of the Federal Government is protected by transfer of title or by other means deemed appropriate by the awarding agency; d. Rental costs. Rental costs under unexpired leases are generally allowable where clearly shown to have been reasonably necessary for the performance of the terminated award less the residual value of such leases, if(i)the amount of such rental claimed does not exceed the reasonable use value of the property leased for the period of the award and such further period as may be reasonable, and(ii)the organization makes all reasonable efforts to terminate, assign, settle, or otherwise reduce the cost of such lease. There also may be included the cost of alterations of such leased property, provided such alterations were necessary for the performance of the award, and of reasonable restoration required by the provisions of the lease. e. Settlement expenses. Settlement expenses including the following are generally allowable: (1)Accounting, legal,clerical, and similar costs reasonably necessary for: (a) The preparation and presentation to awarding agency of settlement claims and supporting data with respect to the terminated portion of the award, unless the termination is for default(see Sec. .61 of 9 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM cates, (ii) special assessments on land which represent capital improvements, and(iii) 1 Federal income taxes. 58 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM already required or maintained.

The extent of the relocation, the amount of the Federal participation in the financing, and the depreciation and interest charged to date may require negotiation and/or downward adjustments of replacement space charged to Federal programs in the future. 48 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM rdingly, shall be allocated a proportionate share of applicable indirect costs when the following circumstances exist: 42 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM grouping are more general in nature, the allocation shall be-made 10of63 6/21/00 2:34 PM ork on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. In the event the Employment and Training Administration withdraws approval of a training program, the contractor will no longer be permitted to utilize trainees at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved. (iii) Equal employment opportunity.

(3)Indirect costs related to salaries and wages incurred as settlement expenses in subparagraphs (1) and (2). Normally, such indirect costs shall be limited to fringe benefits, occupancy cost, and immediate supervision. f. Claims under subawards. Claims under subawards,including the allocable portion of claims which are common to the award, and to other work of the organization are generally allowable. An appropriate share of the organization's indirect expense may be allocated to the amount of settlements with subcontractors and/or subgrantees,provided that the amount allocated is otherwise consistent with the basic guidelines contained in Attachment A. The indirect expense so allocated shall exclude the same and similar costs claimed directly or indirectly as settlement expenses. 53. Training and education costs. a.

Such costs are limited to the costs attributable to a total period not to exceed one school year for each employee so trained. In unusual cases the period may be extended. d. Costs of attendance of up to.16 weeks per employee per year at specialized programs specifically designed to enhance the effectiveness of executives or managers or to prepare employees for such positions are allowable.

Additional guidance on distinguishing between a subrecipient and a vendor is provided in§ .210. Subpart B--Audits §__.200 Audit requirements. (a)Audit required. Non-Federal entities that expend$300,000 or more in a year in Federal awards shall have a single or program-specific audit conducted for that year in accordance with the provisions of this part. Guidance on determining Federal awards expended is provided in §_.205. (b)Single audit.Non-Federal entities that expend$300,000 or more in a year in Federal awards shall have a single audit conducted in accordance with § .500 except when they elect to have a program- specific audit conducted in accordance with paragraph(c)of this section. (c)Program-specific audit election. When an auditee expends Federal awards under only one Federal program(excluding R&D) and the Federal program's laws,regulations, or grant agreements do not require a financial statement audit of the auditee, the auditee may elect to have a program- specific audit conducted in accordance with§ .235. A program-specific audit may not be elected for R&D unless all of the Federal awards expended were received from the same Federal agency,or the same Federal agency and the same pass-through entity, and that Federal agency,or pass-through entity in the case of a subrecipient, approves in advance a program-specific audit. (d)Exemption when Federal awards expended are less than $300,000.Non-Federal entities that expend less than$300,000 a year in Federal awards are exempt from Federal audit requirements for that year, except as noted in§_.215(a),but records must be available for review or audit by appropriate officials of the Federal agency,pass-through entity, and General Accounting Office (GAO). (e)Federally Funded Research and Development Centers (FFRDC). Management of an auditee that owns or operates a FFRDC may elect to treat the FFRDC as a separate entity for purposes of this part. § .205 Basis for determining Federal awards expended. (a)Determining Federal awards expended. The determination of when an award is expended should be based on when the activity related to the award occurs. Generally, the activity pertains to events that require the non-Federal entity to comply with laws,regulations, and the provisions of contracts or grant agreements, such as: expenditure/expense transactions associated with grants,cost- reimbursement contracts, cooperative agreements, and direct appropriations;the disbursement of funds passed through to subrecipients; the use of loan proceeds under loan and loan guarantee programs; the receipt of property; the receipt of surplus property; the receipt or use of program income; the distribution or consumption of food commodities;the disbursement of amounts entitling the non-Federal entity to an interest subsidy; and, the period when insurance is in force. (b)Loan and loan guarantees(loans). Since the Federal Government is at risk for loans until the debt is repaid, the following guidelines shall be used to calculate the value of Federal awards expended under loan programs, except as noted in paragraphs(c)and(d)of this section: http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/circulars/a133/a133.html 6/21/00 accommodations and less than first-class air accommodations is unallowable except when less than first-class air accommodations are not reasonably available to meet necessary mission requirements, such as where less than first-class accommodations would (i)require circuitous routing, (ii)require travel during unreasonable hours, (iii) greatly increase the duration of the flight, (iv)result in additional costs which would offset the transportation savings, or(v) offer accommodations which are not reasonably adequate for the medical needs of the traveler. �I 61 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM e may require negotiation and/or downward adjustments of replacement space charged to Federal programs in the future. 48 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM rdingly, shall be allocated a proportionate share of applicable indirect costs when the following circumstances exist: 42 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM grouping are more general in nature, the allocation shall be-made 10of63 6/21/00 2:34 PM ork on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed.

(c) Loan and loan guarantees(loans) at institutions of higher education. When loans are made to students of an institution of higher education but the institution does not make the loans,then only the value of loans made during the year shall be considered Federal awards expended in that year. The balance of loans for previous years is not included.as Federal awards expended because the lender accounts for the prior balances. (d) Prior loan and loan guarantees(loans). Loans,the proceeds of which were received and expended in prior-years, are not considered Federal awards expended under this part when the laws, regulations, and the provisions of contracts or grant agreements pertaining to such loans impose no continuing compliance requirements other than to repay the loans. (e)Endowment funds. The cumulative balance of Federal awards for endowment funds which are federally restricted are considered awards expended in each year in which the funds are still restricted. (f)Free rent. Free rent received by itself is not considered a Federal award expended under this part. However, free rent received as part of an award to carry out a Federal program shall be included in determining Federal awards expended and subject to audit under this part. (g)Valuing non-cash assistance. Federal non-cash assistance, such as free rent, food stamps, food commodities, donated property,or donated surplus property, shall be valued at fair market value at the time of receipt or the assessed value provided by the Federal agency. (h)Medicare. Medicare payments to a non-Federal entity for providing patient care services to Medicare eligible individuals are not considered Federal awards expended under this part. (i)Medicaid. Medicaid payments-to asubrecipient for providing patient care services to Medicaid eligible individuals are not considered Federal awards expended under this part unless a State requires the funds to be treated as Federal awards expended because reimbursement is on a cost- reimbursement basis. (j)Certain loans provided by the National Credit Union Administration.For purposes of this part, loans made from the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund and the Central Liquidity Facility that are funded by contributions from insured institutions are not considered Federal awards expended. § .210 Subrecipient and vendor determinations. (a) General. An auditee may be a recipient, a subrecipient,and a vendor. Federal awards expended as a recipient or a subrecipient would be subject to audit under this part. The payments received for goods or services provided as a vendor would not be considered Federal awards.

(b) Federal award. Characteristics indicative of a Federal award received by a subrecipient are when the organization: (1)Determines who is eligible to receive what Federal financial assistance; (2)Has its performance measured against whether the objectives of the Federal program are met; (3)Has responsibility for programmatic decision making; (4) Has responsibility for adherence to applicable Federal program compliance requirements; and. (5)Uses the Federal funds to carry out a program of the organization as compared to providing goods or services for a program of the pass-through entity. (c) Payment for goods and services. Characteristics indicative of a payment for goods and services received by a vendor are when the organization: (1)Provides the goods and services within normal business operations; (2)Provides similar goods or services to many different purchasers; (3) Operates in a competitive environment; (4)Provides goods or services that are ancillary to the operation of the Federal program; and (5) Is not subject to compliance requirements of the Federal program. (d) Use of judgment in making determination. There may be unusual circumstances or exceptions to the listed characteristics. In making the determination of whether a subrecipient or vendor relationship exists, the substance of the relationship is more important than the form of the agreement. It is not expected that all of the characteristics will be present and judgment should be used in determining whether an entity is a subrecipient or vendor. (e)For-profit subrecipient. Since this part does not apply to for-profit subrecipients, the pass- through entity is responsible for establishing requirements, as necessary, to ensure compliance by for- profit subrecipients. The contract with the for-profit subrecipient should describe applicable compliance requirements and the for-profit subrecipient's compliance responsibility.Methods to ensure compliance for Federal awards made to for-profit subrecipients may include pre-award audits, monitoring during the contract, and post-award audits. (0 Compliance responsibility for vendors. In most cases, the auditee's compliance responsibility for vendors is only to ensure that the procurement, receipt, and payment for goods and services comply with laws, regulations, and the provisions of contracts or grant agreements. Program compliance requirements normally do not pass through to vendors. However,the auditee is responsible for ensuring compliance for vendor transactions which are structured such that the vendor is responsible for program compliance or the vendor's records must be reviewed to determine http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/circulars/a133/al33.html 6/21/00 e guidance in http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/circulars/a133/a133.html 6/21/00 nd loan guarantees(loans).

(a)Audit under this part in lieu of other audits.An audit made in accordance with this part shall be in lieu of any financial audit required under individual Federal awards. To the extent this audit meets a Federal agency's needs, it shall rely upon and use such audits. The provisions of this part neither limit the authority of Federal agencies, including their Inspectors General,or GAO to conduct or arrange for additional audits(e.g.,financial audits,performance audits, evaluations, inspections, or reviews)nor authorize any auditee to constrain Federal agencies from carrying out additional audits. Any additional audits shall be planned and performed in such a way as to build upon work performed by other auditors. (b) Federal agency to pay for additional audits.A Federal agency that conducts or contracts for additional audits shall,consistent with other applicable laws and regulations, arrange for funding the full cost of such additional audits. (c)Request for a program to be audited as a major program. A Federal agency may request an auditee to have a particular Federal program audited as a major program in lieu of the Federal agency conducting or arranging for the additional audits. To allow for planning, such requests should be made at least 180 days prior to the end of the fiscal year to be audited. The auditee, after consultation with its auditor, should promptly respond to such request by informing the Federal agency whether the program would otherwise be audited as a major program using the risk-based audit approach described in§ .520 and,if not,the estimated incremental cost. The Federal agency shall then promptly confirm to the auditee whether it wants the program audited as a major program. If the program is to be audited as a major program based upon this Federal agency request, and the Federal agency agrees to pay the full incremental costs,then the auditee shall have the program audited as a major program. A pass-through entity may use the provisions of this paragraph for a subrecipient. § .220 Frequency of audits. Except for the provisions for biennial audits provided in paragraphs(a) and(b)of this section, audits required by this part shall be performed annually. Any biennial audit shall cover both years within the biennial period. (a)A State or local government that is required by constitution or statute,in effect on January 1, 1987, to undergo its audits less frequently than annually, is permitted to undergo its audits pursuant to this part biennially. This requirement must still be in effect for the biennial period under audit. (b) Any non-profit organization that had biennial audits for all biennial periods ending between July 1, 1992, and January 1, 1995, is permitted to undergo its audits pursuant to this part biennially. §_.225 Sanctions. No audit costs may be charged to Federal awards when audits required by this part have not been made or have been made but not in accordance with this part.

(a)Cognizant agency for audit responsibilities. Recipients expending more than$25 million a year in Federal awards shall have a cognizant agency for audit. The designated cognizant agency for audit shall be the Federal awarding agency that provides the predominant amount of direct funding to a recipient unless OMB makes a specific cognizant"agency for audit assignment. To provide for continuity of cognizance,the determination of the predominant amount of direct funding shall be based upon direct Federal awards expended in the recipient's fiscal years ending in 1995,2000,2005, and every fifth year thereafter. For example,audit cognizance for periods ending in 1997 through 2000 will be determined based on Federal awards expended in 1995. (However, for States and local governments that expend more than$25 million a year in Federal awards and have previously assigned cognizant agencies for audit,the requirements of this paragraph are not effective until fiscal years beginning after June 30, 2000.)Notwithstanding the manner in which audit cognizance is determined, a Federal awarding agency with cognizance for an auditee may reassign cognizance to another Federal awarding agency which provides substantial direct funding and agrees to be the cognizant agency for audit. Within 30 days after any reassignment,both the old and the new cognizant agency for audit shall notify the auditee,and, if known,the auditor of the reassignment. The cognizant agency for audit shall: (1)Provide technical audit advice and liaison to auditees and auditors. (2)Consider auditee requests for extensions to the report submission due date required by§_.320 (a). The cognizant agency for audit may grant extensions for good cause. (3)Obtain or conduct quality control reviews of selected audits made by non-Federal auditors, and provide the results,when appropriate,to other interested organizations. (4) Promptly inform other affected Federal agencies and appropriate Federal law enforcement officials of any direct reporting by the auditee or its auditor of irregularities or illegal acts,as required by GAGAS or laws and regulations. - (5)Advise the auditor and,where appropriate,the auditee of any deficiencies found in the audits when the deficiencies require corrective action by the auditor. When advised of deficiencies, the auditee shall work with the auditor to take corrective action. If corrective action is not taken,the cognizant agency for audit shall notify the auditor,the auditee,and applicable Federal awarding agencies and pass-through entities of the facts and make recommendations for follow-up action. Major inadequacies or repetitive substandard performance by auditors shall be referred to appropriate State licensing agencies and professional bodies for disciplinary action. (6) Coordinate, to the extent practical, audits or reviews made by or for Federal agencies that are in addition to the audits made pursuant to this part, so that the additional audits or reviews build upon audits performed in accordance with this part. http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/circulars/a133/a133.html 6/21/00 ta collection forms and reporting packages.

The auditor's determination of whether a noncompliance with the provisions of laws,regulations,contracts, or grant agreements is material for the purpose of reporting an audit finding is in relation to a type of compliance requirement for a major program or an audit objective identified in the compliance supplement. (3)Known questioned costs which are greater than$10,000 for a type of compliance requirement for • a major program. Known questioned costs are those specifically identified by the auditor. In evaluating the effect of questioned costs on the opinion on compliance, the auditor considers the best estimate of total costs questioned(likely questioned costs),not just the questioned costs specifically identified(known questioned costs). The auditor shall also report known questioned costs when likely questioned costs are greater than$10,000 for a type of compliance requirement for a major program. In reporting questioned costs, the auditor shall include information to provide proper perspective for judging the prevalence and consequences of the questioned costs. (4)Known questioned costs which are greater than$10,000 for a Federal program which is not audited as a major program. Except for audit follow-up,the auditor is not required under this part to perform audit procedures for such a Federal program;therefore,the auditor will normally not find questioned costs for a program which is not audited as a major program. However, if the auditor does become aware of questioned costs for a Federal program which is not audited as a major program (e.g.,as part of audit follow-up or other audit procedures)and the known questioned costs are greater' than$10,000,then the auditor shall report this as an audit finding. (5)The circumstances concerning why the auditor's report on compliance for major programs is other than an unqualified opinion, unless such circumstances are otherwise reported as audit findings in the schedule of findings and questioned costs for Federal awards. (6)Known fraud affecting a Federal award, unless such fraud is otherwise reported as an audit finding in the schedule of findings and questioned costs for Federal awards. This paragraph does not require the auditor to make an additional reporting when the auditor confirms that the fraud was reported outside of the auditor's reports under the direct reporting requirements of GAGAS. (7)Instances where the results of audit follow-up procedures disclosed that the summary schedule of prior audit findings prepared by the auditee in accordance with§ .315(b)materially misrepresents the status of any prior audit finding. (b)Audit finding detail. Audit findings shall be presented in sufficient detail for the auditee to prepare a corrective action plan and take corrective action and for Federal agencies and pass-through entities to arrive at a management decision. The following specific information shall be included, as applicable, in audit findings: (1)Federal program and specific Federal award identification including the CFDA title and number, Federal award number and year,name of Federal agency, and name of the applicable pass-through entity. When information, such as the CFDA title and number or Federal award number, is not available, the auditor shall provide the best information available to describe the Federal award.

(8)Views of responsible officials of the auditee when there is disagreement with the audit findings,to the extent practical. (c) Reference numbers. Each audit finding in the schedule of findings and questioned costs shall include a reference.number to allow for easy referencing of the audit findings during follow-up. § .515 Audit working papers. (a)Retention of working papers. The auditor shall retain working papers and reports for a minimum of three years after the date of issuance of the auditor's report(s)to the auditee, unless the auditor is notified in writing by the cognizant agency for audit,oversight agency for audit, or pass-through entity to extend the retention period. When the auditor is aware that the Federal awarding agency, pass-through entity, or auditee is contesting an audit finding, the auditor shall contact the parties contesting the audit finding for guidance prior to destruction of the working papers and reports. (b)Access to working papers. Audit working papers shall be made available upon request to the cognizant or oversight agency for audit or its designee, a Federal agency providing direct or indirect funding,or GAO at the completion of the audit, as part of a quality review,to resolve audit findings, or to carry out oversight responsibilities consistent with the purposes of this part. Access to working papers includes the right of Federal agencies to obtain copies of working papers,as is reasonable and necessary. § .520 Major program determination. (a) General. The auditor shall use a risk-based approach to determine which Federal programs are major programs. This risk-based approach shall include consideration of: Current and prior audit experience, oversight by Federal agencies and pass-through entities, and the inherent risk of the Federal program. The process in paragraphs(b)through(i)of this section shall be followed. (b)Step 1. (1) The auditor shall identify the larger Federal programs,which shall be labeled Type A programs. Type A programs are defined as Federal programs with Federal awards expended during the audit period exceeding the larger of : http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/circulars/a133/a133.htmi 6/21/00 II' le, in audit findings: (1)Federal program and specific Federal award identification including the CFDA title and number, Federal award number and year,name of Federal agency, and name of the applicable pass-through entity. When information, such as the CFDA title and number or Federal award number, is not available, the auditor shall provide the best information available to describe the Federal award. (2)The criteria or specific requirement upon which the audit finding is based, including statutory, regulatory,or other citation. http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/circulars/a133/a133.htm1 6/21/00 v)result in additional costs which would offset the transportation savings, or(v) offer accommodations which are not reasonably adequate for the medical needs of the traveler. �I 61 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM e may require negotiation and/or downward adjustments of replacement space charged to Federal programs in the future. 48 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM rdingly, shall be allocated a proportionate share of applicable indirect costs when the following circumstances exist: 42 of 63 6/21/00 2:27 PM grouping are more general in nature, the allocation shall be-made 10of63 6/21/00 2:34 PM ork on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed.

(ii)$3 million or three-tenths of one percent(.003)of total Federal awards expended in the case of an auditee for which total Federal awards expended exceed$100 million but are less than or equal to $10 billion. (iii) $30 million or 15 hundredths of one percent(.0015)of total Federal awards expended in the case of an auditee for which total Federal awards expended exceed$10 billion. (2)Federal programs not labeled Type A under paragraph (b)(1)of this section shall be labeled Type B programs. (3)The inclusion of large loan and loan guarantees(loans) should not result in the exclusion of other programs as Type A programs. When a Federal program providing loans significantly affects the number or size of Type A programs,the auditor shall consider this Federal program as a Type A program and exclude its values in determining other Type A programs. (4)For biennial audits permitted under§_.220,the determination of Type A and Type B programs shall be based upon the Federal awards expended during the two-year period. (c) Step 2. (1)The auditor shall identify Type A programs which are low-risk. For a Type A program to be considered low-risk, it shall have been audited as a major program in at least one of the two most recent audit periods(in the most recent audit period in the case of a biennial audit), and,in the most recent audit period, it shall have had no audit findings under§ .510(a). However, the auditor may use judgment and consider that audit findings from questioned costs under§_.510(a)(3) and §,.510(a)(4),fraud under§_.510(a)(6), and audit follow-up for the summary schedule of prior audit findings under§_.510(a)(7)do not preclude the Type A program from being low-risk. The auditor shall consider: the criteria in§ .525(c), § .525(d)(1), § .525(d)(2), and§ .525(d) (3); the results of audit follow-up; whether any changes in personnel or systems affecting a Type A program have significantly increased risk;and apply professional judgment in determining whether a Type A program is low-risk. (2)Notwithstanding paragraph(c)(1)of this section, OMB may approve a Federal awarding agency's request that a Type A program at certain recipients may not be considered low-risk. For example,it may be necessary for a large Type A program to be audited as major each year at particular recipients to allow the Federal agency to comply with the Government Management Reform Act of 1994(31 U.S.C. 3515). The Federal agency shall notify the recipient and,if known, the auditor at least 180 days prior to the end of the fiscal year to be audited of OMB's approval. (d)Step 3. (1) The auditor shall identify Type B programs which are high-risk using professional judgment and the criteria in§_.525. However, should the auditor select Option 2 under Step 4 (paragraph(e)(2)(i)(B)of this section), the auditor is not required to identify more high-risk Type B programs than the number of low-risk Type A programs. Except for known reportable conditions in internal control or compliance problems as discussed in§ .525(b)(1), § .525(b)(2), and § .525(c)(1), a single criteria in §_.525 would seldom cause a Type B program to be considered high-risk. http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/circulars/a133/a133.html 6/21/00 he Federal award.

Therefore,the auditor is only required to perform risk assessments on Type B programs that exceed the larger of: (i) $100,000 or three-tenths of one percent(.003)of total Federal awards expended when the auditee has less than or equal to $100 million in total Federal awards expended. (ii) $300,000 or three-hundredths of one percent(.0003)of total Federal awards expended when the auditee has more than$100 million in total Federal awards expended. (e) Step 4. At a minimum,the auditor shall audit all of the following as major programs: (1)All Type A programs, except the auditor may exclude any Type A programs identified as low-risk under Step 2 (paragraph(c)(1)of this section). (2) (i)High-risk Type B programs as identified under either of the following two options: (A) Option 1. At least one half of the Type B programs identified as high-risk under Step 3 (paragraph(d) of this section), except this paragraph(e)(2)(i)(A) does not require the auditor to audit more high-risk Type B programs than the number of low-risk Type A programs identified as low-risk under Step 2. (B) Option 2. One high-risk Type B program for each Type A program identified as low-risk under Step 2. (ii) When identifying which high-risk Type B programs to audit as major under either Option 1 or 2 in paragraph(e)(2)(i)(A)or(B),the auditor is encouraged to use an approach which provides an opportunity for different high-risk Type B programs to be audited as major over a period of time. (3) Such additional programs as may be necessary to comply with the percentage of coverage rule discussed in paragraph(f)of this section. This paragraph(e)(3)may require the auditor to audit more programs as major than the number of Type A programs. (f) Percentage of coverage rule. The auditor_shall audit as major programs Federal programs with Federal awards expended that,in the aggregate, encompass at least 50 percent of total Federal awards expended. If the auditee meets the criteria in§T 530 for a low-risk auditee,the auditor need only audit as major programs Federal programs with Federal awards expended that, in the aggregate, encompass at least 25 percent of total Federal awards expended. (g)Documentation of risk. The auditor shall document in the working papers the risk analysis process used in determining major programs. (h)Auditor's judgment. When the major program determination was performed and documented in accordance with this part, the auditor's judgment in applying the risk-based approach to determine major programs shall be presumed correct. Challenges by Federal agencies and pass-through entities shall only be for clearly improper use of the guidance in this part. However,Federal agencies and pass-through entities may provide auditors guidance about the risk of a particular Federal program and the auditor shall consider this guidance in determining major programs in audits not yet http://www.whitehouse. ov/omb/circulars/a133/a133.html 6/21/00 g Type B programs than the number of low-risk Type A programs.

(i)Deviation from use of risk criteria. For first-year audits,the auditor may elect to determine major programs as all Type A programs plus any Type B programs as necessary to meet the percentage of coverage rule discussed in paragraph(f)of this section. Under this option,the auditor would not be required to perform the procedures discussed in paragraphs(c), (d),and(e)of this section. (1)A first-year audit is the first year the entity is audited under this part or the first year of a change of auditors. (2)To ensure that a frequent change of auditors would not preclude audit of high-risk Type B programs, this election for first-year audits may not be used by an auditee more than once in every three years. §_.525 Criteria for Federal program risk. (a) General. The auditor's determination should be based on an overall evaluation of the risk of noncompliance occurring which could be material to the Federal program.The auditor shall use auditor judgment and consider criteria, such as described in paragraphs(b), (c), and(d)of this section, to identify risk in Federal programs. Also,as part of the risk analysis, the auditor may wish to discuss a particular Federal program with auditee management and the Federal agency or pass- through entity. (b)Current and prior audit experience. (1)Weaknesses in internal control over Federal programs would indicate higher risk. Consideration should be given to the control environment over Federal programs and such factors as the expectation of management's adherence to applicable laws and regulations and the provisions of contracts and grant agreements and the competence and experience of personnel who administer the Federal programs. (i)A Federal program administered under multiple internal control structures may have higher risk. When assessing risk in a large single audit, the auditor shall consider whether weaknesses are isolated in a single operating unit(e.g.,one college campus)or pervasive throughout the entity. (ii)When significant parts of a Federal program are passed through to subrecipients, a weak system for monitoring subrecipients would indicate higher risk. (iii)The extent to which computer processing is used to administer Federal programs, as well as the complexity of that processing, should be considered by the auditor in assessing risk.New and recently modified computer systems may also indicate risk. (2)Prior audit findings would indicate higher risk,particularly when the situations identified in the audit findings could have a significant impact on a Federal program or have not been corrected. (3)Federal programs not recently audited as major programs may be of higher risk than Federal programs recently audited as major programs without audit findings. (c) Oversight exercised by Federal agencies and pass-through entities. (1) Oversight exercised by Federal agencies or pass-through entities could indicate risk. For example,recent monitoring or other h ://www.w ttp hitehouse.gov/omb/circulars/a133/a133.htrn1 6/21/00 programs than the number of low-risk Type A programs. Except for known reportable conditions in internal control or compliance problems as discussed in§ .525(b)(1), § .525(b)(2), and § .525(c)(1), a single criteria in §_.525 would seldom cause a Type B program to be considered high-risk. http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/circulars/a133/a133.html 6/21/00 he Federal award.

However,monitoring which disclosed significant problems would indicate higher risk. (2)Federal agencies,with the concurrence of OMB,may identify Federal programs which are higher risk. OMB plans to provide this identification in the compliance supplement. (d)Inherent risk of the Federal program. (1)The nature of a Federal program may indicate risk. Consideration should be given to the complexity of the program and the extent to which the Federal program contracts for goods and services. For example, Federal programs that disburse funds through third party contracts or have eligibility criteria may be of higher risk. Federal programs primarily involving staff payroll costs may have a high-risk for time and effort reporting,but otherwise be at low-risk. (2)The phase of a Federal program in its life cycle at the Federal agency may indicate risk.For example, a new Federal program with new or interim regulations may have higher risk than an established program with time-tested regulations. Also, significant changes in Federal programs, laws, regulations,or the provisions of contracts or grant agreements may increase risk. • (3)The phase of a Federal program in its life cycle at the auditee may indicate risk. For example, during the first and last years that an auditee participates in a Federal program,the risk may be higher due to start-up or closeout of program activities and staff. (4)Type B programs with larger Federal awards expended would be of higher risk than programs with substantially smaller Federal awards expended. § .530 Criteria for a low-risk auditee. An auditee which meets all of the following conditions for each of the preceding two years (or,in the case of biennial audits,preceding two audit periods) shall qualify as a low-risk auditee and be eligible for reduced audit coverage in accordance with§_.520: (a) Single audits were performed on an annual basis in accordance with the provisions of this•part. A non-Federal entity that has biennial audits does not qualify as a low-risk auditee, unless agreed to in advance by the cognizant or oversight agency for audit. (b)The auditor's opinions on the financial statements and the schedule of expenditures of Federal awards were unqualified. However,the cognizant or oversight agency for audit may judge that an opinion qualification does not affect the management of Federal awards and provide a waiver. (c)There were no deficiencies in internal control which were identified as material weaknesses under the requirements of GAGAS.

Towards the fulfillment and accomplishment of these important objectives, the City of Omaha remains committed to minority and women business development.

The City recognizes its obligations to each segment of the various communities it serves.

Require contractors and/or vendors to provide employment opportunities without regard to race, creed, color, sex religion, or national origin; 2. Monitor contractor and vendor equal opportunity performance; and 3. Increase the total number and total dollar volume of City contracts awarded to minority-owned and women-owned firms.
