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.
