Sec. 209.11  Grant administration.

    (a) Cost share. We may contribute up to 75 percent of the total 
eligible costs. The State must ensure that non-Federal sources 
contribute not less than 25 percent of the total eligible costs for the 
grant. The State or any subgrantee cannot use funds that we provide 
under this Act as the non-Federal match for other Federal funds nor can 
the State or any subgrantee use other Federal funds as the required non-
Federal match for these funds, except as provided by statute.
    (b) Allowable costs. A State may find guidance on allowable costs 
for States and subgrantees in Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 
Circulars A-87 and A-122 on Cost Principles. States may use up to 7 
percent of the grant funds for management costs of the grant. The State 
should include management costs in its application. Subgrantees must 
include reasonable costs to administer the grant as a direct project 
cost in their budget.
    (c) Progress reports. The State must provide a quarterly progress 
report to us under 44 CFR 13.40, indicating the status and completion 
date for each project funded. The report will include any problems or 
circumstances affecting completion dates, scope of work, or project 
costs that may result in noncompliance with the approved grant 
conditions.
    (d) Financial reports. The State must provide a quarterly financial 
report to us under 44 CFR 13.41.
    (e) SMARTLINK Drawdowns. The State will make SMARTLINK drawdowns to 
reimburse or advance allowable costs to subgrantees for approved 
projects.
    (f) Audit requirements. Uniform audit requirements as set forth in 
44 CFR part 14 apply to all grant assistance provided under this 
subpart. We may elect to conduct a Federal audit on the disaster 
assistance grant or on any of the subgrants.
    (g) If a mitigation measure is not completed, and there is not 
adequate justification for non-completion, no Federal funding will be 
provided for that project.
