AGENDA REPORT
Item 12.

TO:

FROM:

BY:

SUBJECT:

Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
Michael B. O'Kelly, City Manager
Bernardo I niguez, Director of Public Works/Facilities

CONSIDERATION OF A RESOLUTION APPROVING AWATER RIGHT LICENSE AND AGREEMENT WITH LIBERTY UTILITIES (PARK WATER) CORP. GRANTING A LICENSE TO EXTRACT 500 ACRE-FEET OF CITY'S GROUNDWATER PUMPING ALLOCATION RIGHTS FOR FY 2023-2024
DATE: July 22, 2024
RECOMMENDATION:

It is staff's recommendation that the City Council adopt the attached Resolution approving a Water Right License and Agreement with Liberty Utilities (Park Water) Corp. granting a license to extract 500 acre-feet of the City's unused groundwater pumping allocation rights for fiscal year 2023-2024, for a total fee of $25,000.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:

Since 1991, the City of Bell Gardens ("City") has owned a potable water system that serves the northerly portion of the City, consisting of approximately 1,700 service connections. Groundwater from the City's only operating well, Well No. 1, had been the main source of water supply for the City's water system; however, Well No. 1 has been out of commission since September 2021 due to the detection of PFAS/PFOA. Since that time, the City has been purchasing imported water from the Metropolitan Water District at an average rate of $107,000 per month to provide water to customers of the City's water system.

The City receives an annual allocation of 1,914 acre-feet of groundwater pumping rights in the Central Basin Watermaster Service Area pursuant to a Court Adjudication of the Basin. On a typical year while Well No. 1 was operational, the City's water system used approximately 1,200 acre-feet of those water rights. However, the City did not pump any groundwater in fiscal year 2023-2024 due to Well No.1's downtime. The Central Basin Watermaster allows the leasing of unused water pumping rights to water purveyors in the same Central Basin region through a Water Right License and Agreement.

The City anticipates having approximately 2,000 acre-feet of unused water pumping rights available for lease for fiscal year 2023-2024. The City has generally leased out its unused water rights to water purveyors within the Central Basin Watermaster Service Area, with revenue going back to the City's Water Fund.

On June 12, 2024, the City released a Request for Proposals for Lease of Water Pumping Rights in FY 2023-2024 ("RFP") with flex, and subsequently, issued Addendum No. 1 which extended the proposal submittal deadline to Wednesday, June 19, 2024.

On June 19, 2024, the City received one proposal from Liberty Utilities (Park Water) Corp. Liberty Utilities (Park Water) Corp. proposed to lease 500 acre-feet of water rights with flex at a rate of $50 per acre-foot, for a total payment of $25,000. Staff reviewed the proposal and deemed it satisfactory. 831

CONCLUSION:

If approved, staff will process the Water Right License and Agreement for signatures and will file a copy of the executed agreement with the Central Basin Watermaster.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The lease of the City's 500 acre-feet of water rights to Liberty for fiscal year 2023-2024 will generate $25,000 in revenue for the City's Water Fund.

On October 2, 2023, the City received a total of four (4) bid proposals for the Project. Staff conducted a bid analysis to ensure to lowest, responsible bid met all of the requirements in the Project specifications, including complying with all applicable local, state and federal requirements. Based on the analysis, staff recommended awarding a construction contract to Roy Allan Slurry Seal, Inc. ("Roy Allan") as the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. On November 13, 2023, the City awarded the construction contract to Roy Allan in the amount of $167,639.30.

SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS AND AUTHORIZATION TO SOLICIT BIDS FOR THE FORD PARK MAINTENANCE YARD ACCESS ROAD PROJECT (CIP NO. 3902)
DATE: July 22, 2024
RECOMMENDATION:

It is staff's recommendation that the City Council:

1. Approve the plans and specifications for the Ford Park Maintenance Yard Access Road Project;

2. Authorize staff to solicit competitive bids and publish the Notice Inviting Sealed Bids (NISB); and

3. Find that the project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Guidelines Section 15301(c).

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:

Engineering staff has completed the design and construction documents for the Ford Park Maintenance Yard Access Road Project (the "Project"). The Project scope of work consists of furnishing all materials, equipment, tools, labor, and incidentals as required by the Plans, Specifications, and Contract documents. The general item of work includes the construction of a new access road from the existing Public Works maintenance yard at John Anson Ford Park, along the golf course/soccer field, and to the existing traffic circle at the south end of the golf course parking lot. This new access road will eliminate the need for City maintenance vehicles and contract service provider vehicles to travel through the park's walking paths along the east side of the park to access the Public Works maintenance yard. The construction documents, which include plans, specifications, and engineer estimate (PS&E) have been completed in accordance with the City's internal procurement policies and the Public Contract Code. The total contract period for this project is sixty-five (65) working days.

Upon authorization by the City Council, staff will proceed with the bid phase of the Project, publishing the Notice Inviting Sealed Bids (NISB) in a local newspaper of general circulation and other electronic media, and posting the plans and specifications on the City's website. Bids will be publicly opened, and a contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder at a future City Council meeting. The published NISB will state the time and place for receiving and opening of sealed bids and will distinctly describe the Project. The NISB will be published in accordance with Public Contract Code § 20164.

• Anticipated Award of Contract September 09, 2024
DESIGN IMMUNITY:

Government Code section 830.6 states in part, "Neither a public entity nor a public employee is liable for an injury caused by the plan or design of a construction of, or an improvement to, public property where such plan or design has been approved in advance of the construction or improvement by the legislative body of the public entity or by some other body or employee exercising discretionary authority to give such approval or where such plan or design is prepared in conformity with standards previously approved." In order to bid the Project and provide California design immunity, per Government Code section 830.6, the City Council must approve the plans and specifications prior to the construction bidding process. The intent of Section 830.6 is to prevent a judge or jury from second-guessing discretionary approvals made by the public agency and its employees regarding a plan or design for a construction project.

The plans and specifications for the Project are consistent with the City's standards and the General Plan. Staff's recommendation for City Council approval of the plans and specifications is intended to avail the City of the immunities set forth in Government Code section 830.6, prior to proceeding with construction of the Project. Through the City Council's approval, the Director of Public Works/Facilities, as the City's project manager, would be authorized to act on the City's behalf in approving any necessary alterations or modifications of the plans and specifications throughout the course of the Project.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et seq.) and CEQA Guidelines (California Code of Regulations, Title 14, §§ 15000, et seq.), the City conducted an environmental assessment. Based on the environmental assessment, the Project was determined to be categorically exempt pursuant to CEQA Guidelines § 15303 (Class 1 —Existing Facilities). A Notice of Exemption for the Project will be prepared and filed with the L.A. County Registrar Recorder's Office.

CONCLUSION:

Upon authorization by the City Council, staff will proceed with the bid phase of the Project.

FISCAL IMPACT:

A total of $38,492 of Generals Funds was expended on Project design costs in FY 2023-2024. The City's FY 2021 2025 Capital Improvement Project budget includes $661,508 of General Funds for the Project.

The Project's total estimated expenditures are as follows:

Design

SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF A RESOLUTION APPROVING TRANSFER AGREEMENT NO. 2024MP08 WITH THE LOS ANGELES COUNTY FLOOD CONTROL DISTRICT FOR THE

SAFE, CLEAN WATER PROGRAM - MUNICIPAL PROGRAM
DATE: July 22, 2024
RECOMMENDATION:

It is staff's recommendation that the City Council adopt the attached Resolution approving Transfer Agreement No. 2024MP08 with the Los Angeles County Flood Control District for the Safe, Clean Water Program - Municipal Program.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:

The Safe, Clean Water Program (Measure W) was passed in 2018, and it provides local, dedicated funding to increase water supply, improve water quality, and provide community enhancements throughout Los Angeles County. The goal of the program, which is administered by the Los Angeles County Flood Control District ("District"), is to assist local governments in addressing stormwater and urban runoff needs and improvements.

Measure W Municipal Program funding may be used for stormwater and urban runoff projects and programs, which include, but are not limited to, infrastructure development, water quality or water resilience planning, stormwater retrofits, stormwater and urban runoff programs, procurement of equipment for runoff prevention, administration and implementation of SCW programs.

Under the Safe, Clean Water Program, 40% of the tax revenue received by L.A. County under Measure W is allocated to cities as a local return (Municipal Program). Direct funding is proportional to the revenues generated within city boundaries, and cities must enter into a Transfer Agreement with the District to receive funding. The City of Bell Gardens ("City") entered into Transfer Agreement No. 2020MP08 with the District on July 27, 2020, and the agreement subsequently expired on June 30, 2024.

During the term of that agreement, the City successfully implemented the following projects or programs:
• Conducted Commercial and Industrial Facility Stormwater Inspections to ensure compliance and implementation of stormwater and non-stormwater Best Management Practices. • Administered programs contained in the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit.
• Designed and began construction of the Veterans Park City Yard Stormwater Improvements Project. This project is anticipated to be completed by Fall 2024, and it will feature a new underground stormwater storage and treatment device; and installation of canopies over stockpile bunkers to prevent stormwater runoff.

The District has provided the City with Transfer Agreement No. 2024MP08 ("Transfer Agreement"), which would 853

disburse Measure W Municipal Program funds to the City from FY 2024-2025 through FY 2027-2028. The City's estimated annual Measure W disbursement is approximately $310,000. Public Works anticipates working on the design and construction of a stormwater compliance improvement project at the Public Works Corporation Yard, as well as continued administration of NP DES programs and inspections over the next three fiscal years.

The City will be required to submit annual plans, progress reports, annual reports and an independent audit as part of the Transfer Agreement.

CONCLUSION:

If approved, staff will process the Transfer Agreement for signatures and the City will continue to receive annual Measure W Municipal Program funding for water quality projects and programs over the next three fiscal years.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The City will receive approximately $310,000 annually in Measure W Municipal Program funds, which will be allocated to the Measure W Fund.

In order to maintain funding eligibility, state agencies, along with those in receipt of grant and contractual awards, must certify that they provide drug -free workplaces and have issued drug -free workplace statements to their employees [Section 8355(a) of the Government Code].

a. Overview
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2021 Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) is one of three grant programs that constitute the DHS/FEMA focus on enhancing the ability of state, local, tribal, and territorial governments, as well as nonprofits, to prevent, protect against, respond to, and recover from terrorist attacks. These grant programs are part of a comprehensive set of measures authorized by Congress and implemented by DHS to help strengthen the Nation's communities against potential terrorist attacks. Among the five basic homeland security missions noted in the DHS Strategic Plan, HSGP supports the goal to Strengthen National Preparedness and Resilience.

FY 2021 HSGP NOFO Back to the Top
Exhibit 2 935

EXHIBIT F
4 In FY 2021, there are three components of HSGP:
1) State Homeland Security Program (SHSP): SHSP assists state, local, tribal, and territorial efforts to build, sustain, and deliver the capabilities necessary to prevent, prepare for, protect against, and respond to acts of terrorism. 2) Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI): UASI assists high -threat, high -density Urban Area efforts to build, sustain, and deliver the capabilities necessary to prevent, prepare for, protect against, and respond to acts of terrorism. 3) Operation Stonegarden (OPSG): OPSG supports enhanced cooperation and coordination among Customs and Border Protection (CBP), United States Border Patrol (USBP), and federal, state, local, tribal, and territorial law enforcement agencies to improve overall border security. OPSG provides funding to support joint efforts to secure the United States' borders along routes of ingress/egress to and from international borders, to include travel corridors in states bordering Mexico and Canada, as well as states and territories with international water borders. State, local, tribal, and territorial (SLTT) law enforcement agencies utilize their inherent law enforcement authorities to support the border security mission and do not receive any additional authority as a result of participation in OPSG.

The 2018-2022 FEMA Strategic Plan creates a shared vision for reducing the risks posed by terrorism and sets an ambitious, yet achievable, path forward to unify and further professionalize emergency management across the country. HSGP supports the goals of Building a Culture of Preparedness and Readying the Nation for Catastrophic Disasters. We invite our stakeholders and partners to also adopt these priorities and join us in building a more prepared and resilient Nation, as preparedness is a shared responsibility and funding should support priorities that are most impactful and demonstrate the greatest return on investment.

For FY 2021, DHS is focused on the criticality of information sharing and collaboration to building a national culture of preparedness and protecting against terrorism and other emerging threats to our national security. DHS and its homeland security mission were born from the "failures among federal agencies and between the federal agencies and state and local authorities to share critical information related to the threat of terrorism" prior to the September 11, 2001, attacks.' The threat profile has changed in the past two decades — we now face continuous cyber threats by sophisticated actors, threats to soft targets and crowded places, threats from domestic violent extremists, and threats from new and emerging technologies. But information sharing and cooperation among state, local, and tribal authorities and federal agencies, including all DHS officials, is just as vital, and perhaps even more vital, today. Therefore, for FY 2021, we have identified five priority areas, tied to some of the most serious threats that DHS would like to see addressed by state and local ' Homeland Security Act of 2002: Report Together with Minority and Dissenting Views 222, Select Committee on Homeland Security: 107th Congress, U.S. House of Representatives (2002) (H. Rpt. 107-609).

5 governments, that recipients will need to address with their HSGP funds. Perhaps most importantly, we will be focused on forging partnerships to strengthen information sharing and collaboration in each of these priority areas and looking for recipients to remove barriers to communication and cooperation with DHS and other federal agencies. b. Objective
The objective of the FY 2021 HSGP is to fund state, local, tribal, and territorial efforts to prevent terrorism and prepare the Nation for threats and hazards that pose the greatest risk to the security of the United States.
c. Priorities
Given the evolving threat landscape, it is incumbent upon DHS/FEMA to continuously evaluate the national risk profile and set priorities that help ensure appropriate allocation of scarce security dollars. In assessing the national risk profile for FY 2021, five priority areas attract the most concern. Due to the unique threats that the nation faces in 2021, DHS/FEMA has determined that these five priorities should be addressed by allocating specific percentages of SHSP and UASI funds to each of these five areas, for a total of 30 percent per award. The following are the five priority areas for FY 2021, along with the corresponding percentage of SHSP and UASI funds that each recipient will be required to designate to each priority area in order to obtain a full allocation of SHSP and UASI funds:
1) Enhancing cybersecurity — 7.5 percent
2) Enhancing the protection of soft targets/crowded places — 5 percent 3) Enhancing information and intelligence sharing and analysis, and cooperation with federal agencies, including DHS — 5 percent
4) Combating domestic violent extremism — 7.5 percent
5) Addressing emergent threats (e.g., transnational criminal organizations, unmanned aircraft systems [UASs], weapons of mass destruction [WMD], etc.) — 5 percent Failure by a recipient to propose investments and projects that align with the five priority areas and spending requirements will result in a recipient having a portion of their SHSP and UASI funds (up to 30 percent) placed on hold until they provide projects that sufficiently align to the National Priority Areas, and total at least the minimum percentage identified above of total SHSP and UASI funds per National Priority Area.

A state or high -risk urban area must allocate the remaining 70 percent of their funding to gaps identified through their Threat and Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (THIRA) and Stakeholder Preparedness Review (SPR) process.

Likewise, there are several enduring security needs that crosscut the homeland security enterprise to which recipients should consider allocating funding across core capability gaps and national priorities. The following are enduring needs that help recipients implement a comprehensive approach to securing communities:
1) Effective planning;
2) Training and awareness campaigns;

For FY 2021, each SHSP and UAS1 recipient is required to submit an Investment Justification (IJ) for each of the five National Priority Areas identified above. Each of these five investments must also account for at least the relevant minimum percentage of the applicant's SHSP and UASI allocation. The fusion center project must be included under the Information and Intelligence Sharing U. State Administrative Agencies (SAAs) may submit complete project -level infoi!niation at the time of application, including the five National Priority Area IJs, but are not required to do so. As a reminder, all SHSP- and UASI-funded projects must have a demonstrated nexus to preventing, preparing for, protecting against, and responding to acts of terrorism. However, such projects may simultaneously support enhanced preparedness for disasters unrelated to acts of terrorism.

DHS/FEMA also requires SHSP and UASI recipients (states, territories, and high -risk urban areas) to complete a THIRA/SPR and prioritize grant funding to support closing capability gaps or sustaining capabilities that address national priorities and/or support enduring needs.

OPSG Allocations
For FY 2021, DHS/FEMA will award OPSG funds based on risk and the anticipated effectiveness of the proposed use of grant funds upon completion of the application review process. The FY 2021 OPSG risk assessment is designed to identify the risk to border security and to assist with the distribution of funds for the grant program. Funding under OPSG is distributed based on the risk to the security of the border and the effectiveness of the proposed projects. Entities eligible for funding are the state, local, and tribal law FY 2021 HSGP NOFO
Exhibit 2 944
Back to the Top

EXHIBIT F
13 enforcement agencies that are located along the border of the United States. DHS/FEMA will make final award determinations based upon a review of the anticipated effectiveness of the state's application as described in Section D, below. The THIRA/SPR process is not required for OPSG.

For the purposes of OPSG, the risk is defined as the potential for an adverse outcome assessed as a function of threats, vulnerabilities, and consequences associated with an incident, event, or occurrence.

Based upon ongoing intelligence analysis and extensive security reviews, DHS/CBP continues to focus the bulk of OPSG funds based upon risk analyses. The risk model used to allocate OPSG funds considers the potential risk that certain threats pose to border security and estimates the relative risk faced by a given area. In evaluating risk, DHS/CBP considers intelligence, situational awareness, criminal trends, and statistical data specific to each of the border sectors, and the potential impacts that these threats pose to the security of the border area. For vulnerability and consequence, DHS/CBP considers the expected impact and consequences of successful border events occurring in specific areas.

Threat and vulnerability are evaluated based on specific operational data from DHS/CBP.

Threat components present in each of the sectors are used to determine the overall threat score. These components are terrorism, criminal aliens, drug trafficking organizations, and alien smuggling organizations.

Effectiveness of the proposed investments will be evaluated based on the recipient's investment strategy, budget, collaboration, and past performance.

2. Projected Number of Awards: 56

3. Period of Performance: 36 months
Extensions to the period of performance are allowed. For additional information on period of performance extensions, please refer to Section H of this NOFO and the Preparedness Grants Manual.

FEMA awards under this program only include one budget period, so it will be same as the period of performance. See 2 C.F.R. § 200.1 for definitions of "budget period" and "period of performance."

Exhibit 2 945

EXHIBIT F
14 those applications submitted on behalf of UASI and OPSG applicants. A11 56 states and territories, including any state of the United States, the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, are eligible to apply for SHSP funds. Tribal governments may not apply directly for HSGP funding; however, funding may be available to tribes under the SHSP and OPSG through the SAA.

2. Applicant Eligibility Criteria
Eligible high -risk urban areas for the FY 2021 UASI program have been determined through an analysis of relative risk of terrorism faced by the 100 most populous MSAs in the United States. Subawards will be made by the SAAs to the designated high -risk urban areas.

In FY 2021, OPSG eligible subrecipients are local units of government at the county level or equivalent level of government and federally recognized tribal governments in states bordering Canada or Mexico and states and territories with international water borders. All applicants must have active ongoing USBP operations coordinated through a CBP sector office to be eligible for OPSG funding.

In FY 2021, OPSG subrecipients eligible to apply for and receive a subaward directly from the SAAs are divided into three Tiers. Tier 1 entities are local units of government at the county level or equivalent and federally recognized tribal governments that are on a physical border in states bordering Canada, states bordering Mexico, and states and territories with international water borders. Tier 2 eligible subrecipients are those not located on the physical border or international water but are contiguous to a Tier 1 county. Tier 3 eligible subrecipients are those not located on the physical border or international water but are contiguous to a Tier 2 eligible subrecipient. The tier structure is only applicable with regard to eligibility. OPSG funding allocations are based on the assessed border security risks as detelniined by the USBP.

An application submitted by an otherwise eligible non-federal entity (i.e., the applicant) may be deemed ineligible when the person that submitted the application is not: 1) a current employee, personnel, official, staff or leadership of the non-federal entity; and 2) duly authorized to apply for an award on behalf of the non-federal entity at the time of application.

Further, the Authorized Organization Representative (AOR) must be a duly authorized current employee, personnel, official, staff, or leadership of the recipient and provide an email address unique to the recipient at the time of application and upon any change in assignment during the period of performance. Consultants or contractors of the recipient are not permitted to be the AOR of the recipient.

3. Other Eligibility Criteria
a. National Incident Management System (NIMS) Implementation Prior to allocation of any federal preparedness awards, recipients must ensure and maintain adoption and implementation of NIMS. The list of objectives used for progress and FY 2021 HSGP NOFO Back to the Top
Exhibit 2 946

15 achievement reporting is on FEMA's website at https://www.fema.gov/emergenc managers/nims/implementation-training.

Please see the Preparedness Grants Manual for more information on NIMS. b. Emergency Management Assistance Compact (EMAC) Membership In support of the National Preparedness Goal (the Goal), SHSP recipients must belong to, be in, or act as a temporary member of EMAC, except for American Samoa and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, which are not required to belong to EMAC at this time. All assets supported in part or entirely with FY 2021 HSGP funding must be readily deployable and NIMS-typed when possible to support emergency or disaster operations per existing EMAC agreements. In addition, funding may be used for the sustainment of core capabilities that, while they may not be physically deployable, support national response capabilities, such as Geographic/Geospatial Information Systems (GIS), interoperable communications systems, capabilities as defined under the Mitigation Mission Area of the Goal, and fusion centers.
c. Law Enforcement Terrorism Prevention Activities (LETPA) Per section 2006 of the Homeland Security Act of 2002, as amended (6 U.S.C. § 607), DHS/FEMA is required to ensure that at least 25 percent of grant funding appropriated for grants awarded under HSGP's authorizing statute are used for LETPAs. DHS/FEMA meets this requirement, in part, by requiring all recipients allocate at least 25 percent of the combined HSGP funds allocated under SHSP and UASI towards LETPAs, as defined in 6 U.S.C. § 607. The LETPA allocation can be from SHSP, UASI, or both. The 25 percent LETPA allocation may be met by funding projects in any combination of the five National Priority Areas identified above and any other investments. The 25 percent LETPA allocation requirement is in addition to the 80 percent pass -through requirement to local units of government and tribes, referenced below.

The National Prevention Framework describes those activities that should be executed upon the discovery of intelligence or information regarding an imminent threat to the homeland, to thwart an initial or follow-on terrorist attack and provides guidance to ensure the Nation is prepared to identify, prevent, avoid, or stop a threatened or actual act of terrorism. Activities outlined in the National Prevention Framework are eligible for use as LETPA-focused funds.

Also, where capabilities are shared with the protection mission area, the National Protection Framework activities are also eligible. All other terrorism prevention activities proposed for funding under LETPA must be approved by the FEMA Administrator.

4. Steps Required to Obtain a Unique Entity Identifier, Register in the System for Award Management (SAM), and Submit an Application
Applying for an award under this program is a multi -step process and requires time to complete. Applicants are encouraged to register early as the registration process can take four weeks or more to complete. Therefore, registration should be done in sufficient time to ensure it does not impact your ability to meet required submission deadlines.

Please review the table above for estimated deadlines to complete each of the steps listed.

Failure of an applicant to comply with any of the required steps before the deadline for submitting an application may disqualify that application from funding.

To apply for an award under this program, all applicants must:
a. Apply for, update, or verify their Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) number from Dun & Bradstreet and Employer Identification Number (EIN) from the Internal Revenue Service;
b. In the application, provide a valid DUNS number, which is currently the unique entity identifier;
c. Have an account with login.gov;
d. Register for, update, or verify their SAM account and ensure the account is active before submitting the application;
e. Create a Grants.gov account;
f. Add a profile to a Grants.gov account;
g. Establish an AOR in Grants.gov;
h. Register in ND Grants
i. Submit an initial application in Grants.gov;

k. Continue to maintain an active SAM registration with current information at all times during which it has an active federal award or an application or plan under consideration by a federal awarding agency. As part of this, applicants must also provide information on an applicant's immediate and highest -level owner and subsidiaries, as well as on all predecessors that have been awarded federal contracts or federal financial assistance within the last three years, if applicable.

Specific instructions on how to apply for, update, or verify a DUNS number or SAM registration or establish an AOR are included below in the steps for applying through Grants.gov.

Applicants are advised that FEMA may not make a federal award until the applicant has complied with all applicable DUNS and SAM requirements. Therefore, an applicant's SAM registration must be active not only at the time of application, but also during the application review period and when FEMA is ready to make a federal award. Further, as noted above, an applicant's or recipient's SAM registration must remain active for the duration of an active federal award. If an applicant's SAM registration is expired at the time of application, expires during application review, or expires any other time before award, FEMA may determine that the applicant is not qualified to receive a federal award and use that determination as a basis for making a federal award to another applicant.

Per 2 C.F.R. § 25110(c)(2)(ii), if an applicant is experiencing exigent circumstances that prevents it from receiving a DUNS number and completing SAM registration prior to receiving a federal award, the applicant must notify FEMA as soon as possible by contacting [email protected] and providing the details of the circumstances that prevent completion of these requirements. If FEMA determines that there are exigent circumstances and FEMA has decided to make an award, the applicant will be required to obtain a DUNS number and complete SAM registration within 30 days of the federal award date.

5. Electronic Delivery
DHS is participating in the Grants.gov initiative to provide the grant community with a single site to find and apply for grant funding opportunities. DHS encourages or requires applicants to submit their applications online through Grants.gov, depending on the funding opportunity.

21 b. Program -Specific Required Forms and Information
L IJ DEVELOPMENT: SHSP AND UASI
As part of the FY 2021 HSGP application process for SHSP and UASI funds, applicants must develop formal IJs that address the proposed investments. Failure to fulfill of all of the teiius contained in this section will be considered by DHS/FEMA in its evaluation of the effectiveness of the IJs submitted to meet the minimum percent spend requirement for each National Priority Area. Failure to sufficiently align projects to the National Priority Areas and meet the minimum percent spend requirement will result in funds being placed on hold until those issues are addressed.

FY 2021 SHSP and UASI applications must include one (1) IJ and at least one (1) respective project for each of the five National Priority Areas (Cybersecurity, Soft Targets/Crowded Places, Intelligence and Infoiivation Sharing, Countering Domestic Violent Extremism, and Emerging Threats) identified in this NOFO. Each of these five IJs must also meet or exceed the minimum percent spend requirement based on the applicant's SHSP and UASI allocation stated in this NOFO. The SAA must submit one IJ per National Priority Area; all projects associated with a National Priority Area must be submitted in the same IJ and account for the relevant minimum spend requirement as a percentage of the SHSP or UASI allocation. SAAs may submit complete project -level information at the time of application but are not required to do so at the time of application. However, any SHSP or UASI application that does not include an IJ for each National Priority Area that meets the minimum spend requirement will have that funding placed on hold (up to the National Priority Area, or up to 30 percent of the total award) until those IJs and project -level details that sufficiently address the National Priority Areas are received and approved by DHS/FEMA.

Each IJ must demonstrate how proposed investments:
• Support terrorism preparedness;
• Support closing capability gaps or sustaining capabilities identified in the community's THIRA/SPR process; and
• Support the overcoming of existing logistical, technological, legal, policy, and other impediments to collaborating, networking, sharing information, cooperating, and fostering a culture of national preparedness with federal, state, tribal, and local governments, as well as other regional, and nonprofit partners in efforts to prevent, prepare for, protect against, and respond to acts of terrorism, to meet its target capabilities, support the national security mission of DHS and other federal agencies, and to otherwise reduce the overall risk to the high -risk urban area, the state, or the Nation.

Each IJ must explain how the proposed investments will support the applicant's efforts to:
• Prevent a threatened or an actual act of terrorism;
• Prepare for all hazards and threats, while explaining the nexus to terrorism preparedness; • Protect citizens, residents, visitors, and assets against the greatest threats and hazards, relating to acts of terrorism; and/or
FY 2021 HSGP NOFO Back to the Top
Exhibit 2 953

EXHIBIT F
22 • Respond quickly to save lives, protect property and the environment, and meet basic human needs in the aftermath of an act of terrorism or other catastrophic incidents.

If not included in the application, SHSP and UASI recipients must submit complete project - level information for each SHSP and UASI IJ as part of the Biannual Strategy Implementation Report (BSIR) due by January 30, 2022. This includes IJs for the five National Priority Areas.

DHS/FEMA will evaluate the effectiveness of the projects submitted in support of the National Priority Areas, either at the time of application or as part of the December 2021 BSIR. DHS/FEMA will not reduce FY 2021 HSGP awards based on the effectiveness review but will work with recipients to ensure compliance with the National Priority Area requirements based on the results of the effectiveness review. Recipients and subrecipients will not be permitted to expend funding under the National Priority Areas until the effectiveness of the proposed projects has been reviewed and confirmed by FEMA.

II. DEVELOPMENT OF INVESTMENTS AND PROJECTS: SHSP
• Applicants must propose at least five and may include up to ten investments. • Within each investment, applicants must propose at least one project to describe the activities they plan to implement with SHSP funds. There is no limit to the number of projects that may be submitted.
• Required National Priority Area IJs must include the name of the priority in the investment name for easy identification.
• Of the proposed SHSP-funded investments, one single project, within the required Intelligence and Information Sharing National Priority Area IJ, must be in support of a designated fusion center. Recipients must coordinate with the fusion center when developing a fusion center project prior to submission. See additional information on how to develop the fusion center projects below and in the Preparedness Grants Manual. • All emergency communications investments must describe how such activities align with needs identified in their Statewide Communication Interoperability Plan (SCIP).

Recipients must coordinate with their Statewide Interoperability Coordinator (SWIC) and/or Statewide Interoperability Governing Body (SIGB) when developing an emergency communications investment prior to submission to ensure the project supports the statewide strategy to improve emergency communications and is compatible and interoperable with surrounding systems. The investment name must include the words "emergency communications" to easily identify any emergency communications investments.
• All requested funding must be associated with specific projects. For each project, several pieces of information must be provided to submit the project for consideration in the application, including:
o Project name;
o Project description;
o Subrecipient name, if applicable;
o Recipient type (e.g., state or local);
o Project location (zip code of the primary location of the project); o Primary core capability the project supports;
FY 2021 HSGP NOFO Back to the Top
Exhibit 2 954

EXHIBIT F
23 o Whether the project activities are shareable and deployable; and o Which National Priority Area (if any) the project supports. • Projects should describe how the proposed investment supports closing capability gaps or sustaining capabilities identified in the THIRA/SPR process. • FEMA encourages states to use any DHS provided assessments, such as those performed by DHS's Protective Security Advisors and Cybersecurity Advisors, when developing their IJs.

III. NATIONAL PRIORITY AREA INVESTMENTS: SHSP
States are encouraged to review the Strategic Framework for Countering Terrorism and Targeted Violence when developing investments.
• Cybersecurity IJ (7.5 percent)
At least one investment must be in support of the state's cybersecurity efforts. The investment must meet or exceed the FY 2021 national priority percentage for cybersecurity and will also be subject to DHS/FEMA's evaluation of the effectiveness of the proposed investments. Cybersecurity investments must support the security and functioning of critical infrastructure and core capabilities as they relate to preventing, preparing for, protecting against, or responding to acts of terrorism. Recipients and subrecipients of FY 2021 HSGP grant awards will be required to complete the 2021 Nationwide C bersecurit Review (NCSR), enabling agencies to benchmark and measure progress of improving their cybersecurity posture. The Chief Information Officer (CIO), Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) or equivalent for each recipient should complete the NCSR. If there is no CIO or CISO, the most senior cybersecurity professional should complete the assessment. The NCSR is available at no cost to the user and takes approximately 2-3 hours to complete. The 2021 NCSR is estimated to be open from October — December 2021.

The NCSR is an annual requirement for recipients and subrecipients of HSGP funds.

Additionally, FEMA recognizes that some subawards will not be issued until after the NCSR has closed. In such cases, such subrecipients will be required to complete the first available NCSR offered after the subaward has been issued by the pass -through entity.

Although not required by SLTTs that did not receive HSGP funds, all SLTT agencies with preparedness responsibilities are highly encouraged to participate and complete the NCSR to evaluate their cybersecurity posture. For detailed information and background on the NCSR, please see IB 439.
• Soft Targets/Crowded Places IJ (5 percent)
Soft targets and crowded places are increasingly appealing to terrorists and other extremist actors because of their relative accessibility and the large number of potential targets. This challenge is complicated by the prevalent use of simple tactics and less sophisticated attacks. Segments of our society are inherently open to the general public, and by nature of their purpose do not incorporate strict security measures. Given the increased emphasis by terrorists and other extremist actors to leverage less sophisticated methods to inflict hay mn in public areas, it is vital that the public and private sectors FY 2021 HSGP NOFO Back to the Top
Exhibit 2 955

EXHIBIT F
24 collaborate to enhance security of locations such as transportation centers, parks, restaurants, shopping centers, special event venues, and similar facilities.

Given the increased risk to soft targets and crowded places, at least one investment must be in support of the state's efforts to protect soft targets/crowded places. Additionally, the proposed investment must meet or exceed the FY 2021 national priority percentage for soft targets/crowded places and will also be subject to DHS/FEMA's evaluation of the effectiveness of the proposed investments. Additional resources and information regarding securing soft targets and crowded places are available through the Cybersecurity and anfrastnicture Security Agency. States are encouraged to engaged DHS' Protective Security Advisors' security assessments of soft targets to ensure that recommendations from those assessments are taken into consideration when allocating grant funding.
• Information and Intelligence Sharing and Cooperation IJ (5 percent) Effective homeland security operations rely on access to, analysis of, and the timely sharing of open source, unclassified, and classified information, suspicious activity reports, tips/leads, and actionable intelligence on indicators and behaviors to accurately identify, assess, and mitigate a wide array of threats against the United States, including terrorism, threats to life, targeted violence, and other threats within the DHS mission space. Accordingly, DHS works diligently to enhance intelligence collection, integration, analysis, and information sharing capabilities to ensure partners, stakeholders, and senior leaders receive actionable intelligence and information necessary to inform their decisions and operations. A critical and statutorily charged mission of DHS is to deliver intelligence and information to federal, state, local, and tribal governments and private sector partners. Cooperation and information sharing among state, federal, and local partners across all areas of the homeland security enterprise, including counterterrorism — including both international and domestic terrorism, cybersecurity, border security, transnational organized crime, immigration enforcement, economic security, and other areas is critical to homeland security operations and the prevention of, preparation for, protection against, and responding to acts of terrorism, and other threats to life and criminal acts of targeted violence.

Given the importance of information sharing and collaboration to effective homeland security solutions, at least one investment must be in support of the state's efforts to enhance information sharing and cooperation with DHS and other federal agencies. As noted above, this requirement must include at least one dedicated fusion center project.

Additional instructions on development of the fusion center project can be found below.

Applicants must justify persuasively how they will contribute to the information sharing and collaboration purposes of the investment and a culture of national preparedness.

Additionally, the proposed investment must meet or exceed the FY 2021 national priority percentage for information sharing and cooperation with DHS and will also be subject to DHS/FEMA's evaluation of the effectiveness of the proposed investments. Additional resources and information regarding collaboration and information sharing are available through the Department's Office of Intelligence and Analysis.

25 • Domestic Violent Extremism IJ (7.5 percent)
As stated in the October 2020 DHS Homeland Threat Assessment, domestic violent extremists, including ideologically motivated lone offenders and small groups, present the most persistent and lethal terrorist threat to the Homeland. These violent extremists capitalize on social and political tensions, which have resulted in an elevated threat environment. They utilize social media platforms and other technologies to spread violent extremist ideologies that encourage violence and influence action within the United States. The COVID-19 pandemic has further created an environment that may lead to accelerated mobilization to targeted violence and/or radicalization to domestic terrorism, including driving lawful protests to incite violence, intimidate targets, and promote their violent extremist ideologies.

Given the rise of domestic violent extremism in recent years, at least one investment must be in support of the state's efforts to combat the rise, influence, and spread of domestic violent extremism. Additionally, the proposed investment must meet or exceed the FY 2021 national priority percentage for domestic violent extremism and will also be subject to DHS/FEMA's evaluation of the effectiveness of the proposed investments.

Please note that there currently is not a "Domestic Violent Extremism" Investment Type option in the Grant Reporting Tool (GRT). Instead applicants should select the "Standard" Investment Type and clearly name the IJ as "Domestic Violent Extremism Priority Area" to ensure it is appropriately accounted for during FEMA's administrative and effectiveness reviews.
• Emerging Threats IJ (5 percent)
The spread of rapidly evolving and innovative technology, equipment, techniques, and knowledge presents new and emerging dangers for homeland security in the years ahead.

Terrorists, criminal actors, and foreign adversaries continue to utilize open source and other technologies to spread misinfoitiiation and sow discord in the United States. These actors also remain intent on acquiring WMD capabilities, and rogue nations and non -state actors are aggressively working to develop, acquire, and modernize WMDs that they could use against the Homeland. Meanwhile, biological and chemical materials and technologies with dual use capabilities are more accessible throughout the global market.

Due to the proliferation of such information and technologies, rogue nations and non - state actors have more opportunities to develop, acquire, and use WMDs than ever before. Similarly, the proliferation of UASs, artificial intelligence, and biotechnology increase opportunities of threat actors to acquire and use these capabilities against the United States and its interests.

Given the increased risk of these emerging threats, at least one investment must be in support of the state's efforts to address emerging threats. Additionally, the proposed investment must meet or exceed the FY 2021 national priority percentage for emerging threats and will also be subject to DHS/FEMA's evaluation of the effectiveness of the proposed investments. Additional resources and information regarding emerging threats are available through the Countering; Wcaons of Mass Destruction Office and the Cybersecurity and anfrastnicture Security Agency.

VII. COMPLETING IJs IN THE GRANT REPORTING TOOL (GRT): SHSP AND UASI In the Related Documents section of the Grants.gov posting, applicants can find the IJ template and instructions for collecting the required information for investments and projects. Additionally, applicants should utilize the Project Worksheet located in Grants.gov posting to assemble the information required for each project, which will facilitate the input of that information into the GRT.

Applicants must ensure the appropriate National Priority Area "Investment Type" (Overview Tab — Investment Information Section) is selected for the corresponding National Priority Area (Cybersecurity, Soft Targets/Crowded Places, Information and Intelligence Sharing and Cooperation, and Emerging Threats). Important note: there currently is not a "Domestic Violent Extremism" Investment Type option. Applicants should instead select the "Standard" Investment Type and clearly name the IJ as "Domestic Violent Extremism Priority Area" to ensure it is appropriately accounted for during FEMA's administrative and effectiveness reviews. All non -National Priority Area IJs should have the "Standard" Investment Type option selected.

VIII. DEVELOPMENT OF CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS FOR OPSG
As part of the FY 2021 OPSG application process, each eligible local unit of government at the county or federally recognized tribal government level must develop a strategic plan called a Concept of Operations (CONOP)/Application, which is a formal proposal of action to address a specific situation and forms the basis for Operations Orders, in coordination with state and federal law enforcement agencies, to include, but not limited to CBP/USBP.

CONOPs that are developed at the county level should be inclusive of city, county, tribal, and other local law enforcement agencies that are eligible to participate in OPSG operational activities, and the CONOP/Application should describe participating agencies in the Executive Summary.

CONOP/Application details should include the names of the agencies, points of contact, and individual funding requests. A11 CONOPs/Applications must be developed in collaboration with the local USBP sector office, the SAA, and the local unit of government. Requests for funding in CONOPs/Applications must be based on risks and the operational enforcement support requirements of its corresponding USBP Sector, as well as the national priorities identified below. USBP Sector offices will forward the CONOPs to USBP Headquarters for FY 2021 HSGP NOFO Back to the Top
Exhibit 2 962

EXHIBIT F
31 vetting and coordination. Applicants will forward corresponding OPSG Applications to the SAA for submission to FEMA. USBP Headquarters will reconcile all submitted CONOPs with the OPSG Applications. FEMA will review and evaluate all CONOPs and OPSG Applications and funding will be allocated based on the review and selection criteria identified in this NOFO.

OPSG Applicants will be required to clearly articulate and identify how the CONOPs will address the national priorities identified below.
• Information and Intelligence Sharing and Cooperation
Effective border security operations rely on access to, analysis of, and the timely sharing of open source, unclassified, and classified information, suspicious activity reports, tips/leads, and actionable intelligence on indicators and behaviors to accurately identify, assess, and mitigate a wide array of threats against the United States, including terrorism, threats to life, targeted violence, and other threats within the DHS mission space.

Accordingly, DHS works diligently to enhance intelligence collection, integration, analysis, and information sharing capabilities to ensure partners, stakeholders, and senior leaders receive actionable intelligence and information necessary to inform their decisions and operations. One critical, statutorily required mission of DHS is to deliver intelligence and information to federal, state, local, and tribal governments and private sector partners. Cooperation and information sharing among state, federal, and local partners across all areas of the homeland security enterprise, including both international and domestic terrorism, cybersecurity, transnational organized crime, economic security, border security, immigration enforcement, and other areas is critical to homeland security operations and the prevention of, preparation for, protection against, and responding to acts of terrorism, and other threats to life and criminal acts of targeted violence.

Given the importance of information sharing and collaboration to effective homeland security solutions, the CONOP must support the recipient's efforts to enhance information sharing and cooperation with DHS and other federal agencies. Applicants must justify persuasively how they will contribute to the information sharing and collaboration purposes of the OPSG program and a culture of national preparedness.

Additional resources and information regarding collaboration and information sharing are available through the Department's Office of Intelligence and Analysis. • Emerging Threats
The spread of rapidly evolving and innovative technology, equipment, techniques, and knowledge presents new and emerging dangers for homeland security in the years ahead.

Terrorists, criminal actors, and foreign adversaries continue to utilize open source and other technologies to spread misinformation and sow discord in the United States. These actors also remain intent on remain intent on acquiring WMD capabilities, and rogue nations and non -state actors are aggressively working to develop, acquire, and modernize WMDs that they could use against the Homeland. Meanwhile, biological and chemical materials and technologies with dual use capabilities are more accessible throughout the global market. Due to the proliferation of such information and technologies, rogue nations and non -state actors have more opportunities to develop, acquire, and use WMDs FY 2021 HSGP NOFO Back to the Top
Exhibit 2 963

EXHIBIT F
32 than ever before. Similarly, the proliferation of UASs, artificial intelligence, and biotechnology increase opportunities of threat actors to acquire and use these capabilities against the United States and its interests.

Given the increased risk of these emerging threats, the CONOP must be in support of the recipient's efforts to address emerging threats. Additional resources and information regarding emerging threats are available through the Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction Office and the Cybersecurity and Infrastnicture Security Azcncv
IX. DETAILED Budget
Applicants must provide budget summary worksheets for all funds requested at the time of application. The budget summary worksheets must be complete, reasonable, and cost- effective in relation to the proposed project and should provide the basis of computation of all project -related costs (including management and administrative costs) and any appropriate narrative. FEMA must be able to thoroughly evaluate the projects being submitted based on the information provided. FEMA must be able to determine how much funding is being passed through to subrecipients for each sub -program (UASI, SHSP, OPSG). Consequently, applicants must provide an appropriate level of detail within the budget summary worksheets to clarify what will be purchased and spent. Sample budget summary worksheets are available on the grants.gov posting for the HSGP in the Related Documents tab and may be used as a guide to assist applicants in the preparation of budgets and budget narratives.

11. Other Submission Requirements
Emergency Communications Investments
If an entity uses HSGP funding to support emergency communications investments, the applicant must describe in the investment how proposed communications investments align to needs identified in their SCIP. Effective project alignment will require advance coordination with the SWIC and consultation with governing bodies such as the S1GB or Statewide Interoperability Executive Committee (SIEC), as they serve as the primary steering group for the statewide interoperability strategy. Additionally, recipients should consult subject matter experts serving on governance bodies, such as broadband experts, chief information officers, representatives from utilities, or legal and financial experts, when developing proposals.

12. Intergovernmental Review
An intergovernmental review may be required. Applicants must contact their state's Single Point of Contact (SPOC) to comply with the state's process under Executive Order 12372 (See https://wwwarchives.gov/federal-register/codification/executive-order/12372.html; https://www.whitehouse . gov/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/SPOC-4-13-20.-adf).

13. Funding Restrictions and Allowable Costs
All costs charged to awards covered by this NOFO must comply with the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements at 2 C.F.R. Part 200, unless otherwise indicated in the NOFO, the terms and conditions of the award, or the Preparedness Grants Manual.

Federal funds made available through this award may be used for the purpose set forth in this NOFO, the Preparedness Grants Manual, and the terms and conditions of the award and must be consistent with the statutory authority for the award. Award funds may not be used for matching funds for any other federal awards, lobbying, or intervention in federal regulatory or adjudicatory proceedings. In addition, federal funds may not be used to sue the Federal Government or any other government entity. See the Preparedness Grants Manual for more infoiiiiation on funding restrictions and allowable costs. a. Prohibitions on Expending FEMA Award Funds for Covered Telecommunications Equipment or Services
Recipients and subrecipients of FEMA federal financial assistance are subject to the prohibitions described in section 889 of the John S. McCain National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019 (FY 2019 NDAA), Pub. L. No. 115-232 (2018) and 2 C.F.R. §§ 200.216, 200.326, 200.471, and Appendix II to 2 C.F.R. Part 200. Beginning August 13, 2020, the statute — as it applies to FEMA recipients, subrecipients, and their contractors and subcontractors — prohibits obligating or expending federal award funds on certain telecommunications and video surveillance products and contracting with certain entities for national security reasons.

Additional guidance is available in FEMA Policy #405-143-1 Prohibitions on Expending FEMA Award Funds for Covered Telecommunications Equipment or Services (Interim Effective August 13, 2020, FEMA recipients and subrecipients may not use any FEMA funds under open or new awards to:
(1) Procure or obtain any equipment, system, or service that uses covered telecommunications equipment or services as a substantial or essential component of any system, or as critical technology of any system;
(2) Enter into, extend, or renew a contract to procure or obtain any equipment, system, or service that uses covered telecommunications equipment or services as a substantial or essential component of any system, or as critical technology of any system; or (3) Enter into, extend, or renew contracts with entities that use covered telecommunications equipment or services as a substantial or essential component of any system, or as critical technology as part of any system.

I. REPLACEMENT EQUIPMENT AND SERVICES

Exhibit 2 965

EXHIBIT F
34 II. DEFINITIONS
Per section 889(f)(2)-(3) of the FY 2019 NDAA and 2 C.F.R. § 200.216, covered telecommunications equipment or services means:
i. Telecommunications equipment produced by Huawei Technologies Company or ZTE Corporation, (or any subsidiary or affiliate of such entities); ii. For the purpose of public safety, security of Government facilities, physical security surveillance of critical infrastructure, and other national security purposes, video surveillance and telecommunications equipment produced by Hytera Communications Corporation, Hangzhou Hikvision Digital Technology Company, or Dahua Technology Company (or any subsidiary or affiliate of such entities);
iii. Telecommunications or video surveillance services provided by such entities or using such equipment; or
iv. Telecommunications or video surveillance equipment or services produced or provided by an entity that the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the Director of National Intelligence or the Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, reasonably believes to be an entity owned or controlled by, or otherwise connected to, the People's Republic of China.

Examples of the types of products covered by this prohibition include phones, internet, video surveillance, and cloud servers when produced, provided, or used by the entities listed in the definition of "covered telecommunications equipment or services." See 2 C.F.R. § 200.471. b. Pre -Award Costs
Pre -award costs are allowable only with the prior written approval of DHS/FEMA and as included in the award agreement. To request pre -award costs, a written request must be included with the application, signed by the AOR of the entity. The letter must outline what the pre -award costs are for, including a detailed budget break-out of pre -award costs from the post -award costs, and a justification for approval.
c. Management and Administration (M&A) Costs
Management and administration (M&A) activities are those directly relating to the management and administration of HSGP funds, such as financial management and monitoring. A maximum of up to five percent of HSGP funds awarded may be retained by the state, and any funds retained are to be used solely for M&A purposes associated with the HSGP award. Subrecipients may also retain a maximum of up to five percent of the funding passed through by the state solely for M&A purposes associated with the HSGP award.

Recipients or subrecipients may apply or credit M&A funding toward the recipient's requirement to allocate funding toward the five National Priority Areas. For example, if a recipient spends $5,000 to manage or administer its funding dedicated toward its enhancing cybersecurity investment, the recipient may credit that funding toward its requirement to allocate at least 7.5 percent of its award to the enhancing cybersecurity National Priority Area.

FY 2021 HSGP NOFO Back to the Top
Exhibit 2 966

EXHIBIT F
35 A state's HSGP funds for M&A calculation purposes includes the total of its SHSP, UASI, and OPSG awards. While the SAA may retain up to five percent of this total for M&A, the state must still ensure that all subrecipient award amounts meet the mandatory minimum pass -through requirements that are applicable to each HSGP program. To meet this requirement, the percentage of SHSP and UASI funds passed through to local or tribal jurisdictions must be based on the state's total HSGP award prior to withholding any M&A.

In retaining these funds, states may retain a maximum of 2.5 percent of the OPSG allocation, which must be withheld from the pass -through to each subrecipient county or tribe in an equal percentage. The SAA may also retain additional funding from its SHSP award to manage and administer the OPSG award, but that additional amount is also capped at an amount equal to 2.5 percent of the OPSG award. Examples applying this principle:

SAA 1:

SHSP: $1,000,000 OPSG: $2,500,000 UASI: $2,500,000
M&A Maximum: $300,000 (5 percent of $6,000,000)
Maximum M&A for SHSP = $50,000
Maximum M&A for OPSG = $125,000. Of that amount, $62,500 (2.5 percent) may be retained from the OPSG allocation, and the other $62,500 would come from the SHSP allocation. Any amount used to manage and administer OPSG that is charged to SHSP may be above and beyond the $50,000 available to manage the SHSP allocation.

Maximum M&A for UASI = $125,000
SAA 2:

SHSP: $3,500,000 OPSG: $1,000,000
M&A Maximum: $225,000 (5 percent of $4,500,000)
Maximum M&A for SHSP = $175,000
Maximum M&A for OPSG = $50,000. Of that amount, $25,000 (2.5 percent) may be retained from the OPSG allocation, and the other $25,000 would come from the SHSP allocation. Any amount used to manage and administer OPSG that is charged to SHSP may be above and beyond the $175,000 available to manage the SHSP allocation.

HSGP recipients are also reminded that any M&A charged to a recipient's or subrecipient's UASI funding must be directly allocable to administration of the UASI grant program and cannot be used to cover M&A costs that are directly allocable to SHSP or OPSG funding.

Similarly, any M&A charged to a recipient's or subrecipient's SHSP or OPSG funding cannot be used to cover M&A costs directly allocable to UASI funding.

Additionally, if a state/territory receives Nonprofit Security Grant Program (NSGP) funding, it may use SHSP M&A funding to cover M&A costs related to the management of NSGP- State awards, and UASI M&A funding to cover M&A costs related to the management of NSGP-Urban Area awards.

Please note, 1B 365: Management and Administration Costs in the Homeland Security Grant Program and DHS/FEMA Policy 207-087-1 do not apply to awards made in FY 2021 under this NOFO. Please also reference IB 416 for additional clarification on OPSG M&A, FY 2021 HSGP NOFO Back to the Top
Exhibit 2 967

EXHIBIT F
36 but to the extent that there is any conflict between IB 416 and this NOFO, the requirements of this NOFO will apply to FY 2021 awards made under this NOFO. d. Indirect Facilities & Administrative (F&A) Costs
Indirect costs are allowable under this program as described in 2 C.F.R. Part 200, including 2 C.F.R. § 200.414. Applicants with a current negotiated indirect cost rate agreement that desire to charge indirect costs to an award must provide a copy of their negotiated indirect cost rate agreement at the time of application. Not all applicants are required to have a current negotiated indirect cost rate agreement. Applicants that are not required by 2 C.F.R.

Part 200 to have a negotiated indirect cost rate agreement but are required by 2 C.F.R. Part 200 to develop an indirect cost rate proposal must provide a copy of their proposal at the time of application. Applicants who do not have a current negotiated indirect cost rate agreement (including a provisional rate) and wish to charge the de minimis rate must reach out to the FEMA Grants Management Specialist for further instructions. Applicants who wish to use a cost allocation plan in lieu of an indirect cost rate must also reach out to the FEMA Grants Management Specialist for further instructions. Post -award requests to charge indirect costs will be considered on a case -by -case basis and based upon the submission of an agreement or proposal as discussed above or based upon on the de minimis rate or cost allocation plan, as applicable.
f. Funds Transfer Restriction
The recipient is prohibited from transferring funds between programs (includes SHSP, UASI, and OPSG). Recipients can submit an investment/project where funds come from multiple funding sources (e.g., SHSP and UASI), however, recipients are not allowed to divert funding from one program to another due to the risk -based funding allocations, which were made at the discretion of DHS/FEMA.
e. Other Direct Costs

37 through the EMAC2 and allowable under 6 U.S.C. § 609, and any other applicable provision of the Homeland Security Act of 2002, as amended. Examples of such general-purpose equipment may include:
o Law enforcement vehicles;
o Emergency medical services (EMS) equipment and vehicles; o Fire service equipment and vehicles, to include hose, pump accessories, and foam concentrate for specialized CBRNE response;
o Interoperability of data systems, such as computer aided dispatch (CAD) and record management systems (RMS); and
o Office equipment for staff3 engaged in homeland security program activity. • Controlled Equipment
For decades, the federal government has provided equipment to state, local, and tribal law enforcement agencies (LEAs) through federal grants. Some federal grant programs have assisted LEAs as they carry out their critical missions to keep the American people safe. The equipment acquired by LEAs through these programs includes administrative equipment, such as office furniture and computers. Some federal grant programs also may include military and military -styled equipment, firearms, and tactical vehicles provided by the federal government, including property covered under 22 C.F.R. Part 121 and 15 C.F.R. Part 774 (collectively, "controlled equipment").

However, not all equipment that is considered controlled equipment is allowable under the HSGP. As discussed further below, there are certain "prohibited equipment" that are not allowable under HSGP. And for the procurement of certain controlled equipment that is allowable under the HSGP, there are additional submission requirements and reviews that must be met before DHS/FEMA will permit funding to be used for this purpose.

DHS/FEMA will continue to collaborate with federal agency partners to ensure that there is a consistent and reasonable approach to the restrictions placed on controlled equipment expenditures while continuing to support these investments when there is a justifiable need.

Further, DHS/FEMA will continue to maintain an awareness of the evolving policy developments related to controlled equipment expenditures and keep grant recipients up to date on future developments.

Grant funds under this program may not be used for the purchase of equipment not approved by DHS/FEMA. The purchase of weapons and weapons accessories, including ammunition, is not allowed with HSGP funds. Grant funds under this program must also comply with IB 426 and may not be used for the purchase of the following equipment: 1) firearms; 2) 2 Except for American Samoa and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, which are not required to belong to EMAC at this time.

42 I. RISK METHODOLOGY
The risk methodology determines the relative risk of terrorism faced by a given area considering the potential risk of terrorism to people, critical infrastructure, and economic security. The analysis includes, but is not limited to, threats from violent domestic extremists, international terrorist groups, and individuals inspired by terrorists abroad. See the Preparedness Grants Manual for additional information on the risk methodology.

NOTE: The THIRA/SPR process is separate from the risk methodology and its results do not affect grant allocations.

The Risk Methodology is used to inform allocations under HSGP. For more information on the SHSP, UASI, and OPSG allocation processes, please see Section B.1 of this NOFO, "Available Funding for the NOFO."
II. APPLICATION EVALUATION CRITERIA
FEMA will evaluate the FY 2021 HSGP applications for completeness, adherence to programmatic guidelines, and anticipated effectiveness of the proposed investments.

FEMA's review will include verification that each. IJ and project:
• Aligns with at least one core capability identified in the Goal; • Demonstrates how investments support closing capability gaps or sustaining capabilities identified in the THIRA/SPR process; and
• Supports a NIMS-typed resource and whether those assets are deployable/shareable to support emergency or disaster operations per existing EMAC agreements.

In addition to the above, FEMA will evaluate whether proposed projects are: 1) both feasible and effective at reducing the risks for which the project was designed; and 2) able to be fully completed within the three-year period of performance. FEMA will use the information provided in the application and after the submission of the first BSIR to determine the feasibility and effectiveness of a grant project. To that end, IJs should include:
• An explanation of how the proposed project(s) will achieve objectives as identified in the SPR, including expected long-term impact where applicable, and which core capability gap(s) it helps to close and how;
• A summary of the status of planning and design efforts accomplished to date (e.g., included in a capital improvement plan); and
• A project schedule with clear milestones.

Recipients are expected to conform, as applicable, with accepted engineering practices, established codes, standards, modeling techniques, and best practices, and participate in the development of case studies demonstrating the effective use of grant funds, as requested.

FEMA will also review any submitted National Priority Area -aligned IJs and projects to ensure they meet the minimum spend requirement. Further information on how the National Priority Area IJs and projects will be reviewed for effectiveness is included in the Review and Selection Process section below.

43 b. Financial Integrity Criteria
Prior to making a federal award, FEMA is required by 31 U.S.C. § 3354, as amended by the Payment Integrity Information Act of 2019, Pub. L. No. 116-117 (2020); 41 U.S.C. § 2313; and 2 C.F.R. § 200.206 to review information available through any Office of Management and Budget (OMB) -designated repositories of governmentwide eligibility qualification or financial integrity information, including whether the applicant is suspended or debarred.

FEMA may also pose additional questions to the applicant to aid in conducting the pre -award risk review. Therefore, application evaluation criteria may include the following risk -based considerations of the applicant:
i. Financial stability.
ii. Quality of management systems and ability to meet management standards. iii. History of performance in managing federal award.
iv. Reports and findings from audits.
v. Ability to effectively implement statutory, regulatory, or other requirements. c. Supplemental Financial Integrity Criteria and Review Prior to making a federal award where the anticipated total federal share will be greater than the simplified acquisition threshold, currently $250,000:

FEMA is required to review and consider any information about the applicant, including information on the applicant's immediate and highest -level owner, subsidiaries, and predecessors, if applicable, that is in the designated integrity and perfoimnance system accessible through the System for Award Management (SAM), which is currently the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS).

An applicant, at its option, may review information in FAPIIS and comment on any information about itself that a federal awarding agency previously entered.
. FEMA will consider any comments by the applicant, in addition to the other information in FAPIIS, in making a judgment about the applicant's integrity, business ethics, and record of performance under federal awards when completing the review of risk posed by applicants as described in 2 C.F.R. § 200.206.

2. Review and Selection Process
a. SHSP and UASI
All proposed investments will undergo a federal review by DHS/FEMA to verify compliance with all administrative and eligibility criteria identified in the NOFO. The federal review will be conducted by FEMA HQ Preparedness Officers. FEMA HQ Preparedness Officers will use a checklist to verify compliance with all administrative and eligibility criteria identified in the NOFO. Recipients must be able to demonstrate how investments support closing capability gaps or sustaining capabilities identified in the THIRA/SPR process. IJs will be reviewed at both the investment and project level.

FY 2021 HSGP NOFO Back to the Top
Exhibit 2 975

EXHIBIT F
44 Emergency communications investments will be jointly reviewed by FEMA and the DHS Office of Emergency Communications (OEC) to verify compliance with SAFECOM guidance. FEMA and OEC will coordinate directly with the recipient on any compliance concerns and will provide technical assistance as necessary to help ensure full compliance.

Additional Effectiveness Evaluation Criteria for the National Priority Areas FEMA will evaluate the FY 2021 HSGP IJs and projects submitted in support of the National Priority Areas for anticipated effectiveness. FEMA's review will include verification that each IJ or project meets the National Priority Area required spend percentages.

Cybersecurity investments will be reviewed by DHS/FEMA, CISA, and other DHS components as appropriate, for compliance with purposes and requirements of the priority investment area. Proposed investments will be reviewed for effectiveness using the criteria set forth in this NOFO.

Soft Targets/Crowded Places investments will be reviewed by DHS/FEMA, CISA, and other DHS components as appropriate, for compliance with purposes and requirements of the priority investment area. Proposed investments will be reviewed for effectiveness using the criteria set forth in this NOFO.

Information Sharing and Cooperation Investments will be reviewed by DHS/FEMA, DHS Office of Intelligence and Analysis, and other DHS components as appropriate, for compliance with purposes and requirements of the priority investment area. Proposed investments will be reviewed for effectiveness using the criteria set forth in this NOFO.

For additional information on Fusion Center requirements, please see the Preparedness Grants Manual,
Domestic violent extremism investments will be reviewed by DHS/FEMA, DHS Office of Intelligence and Analysis, and other DHS components as appropriate, for compliance with purposes and requirements of the priority investment area. Proposed investments will be reviewed for effectiveness using the scoring criteria set forth in this NOFO.

Emerging threats investments will be reviewed by DHS/FEMA, DHS Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction Office, and other DHS components as appropriate, for compliance with purposes and requirements of the priority investment area. Proposed investments will be reviewed for effectiveness using the criteria set forth in this NOFO.

FEMA will deteiiuine whether the proposed approach is clear, logical, and reasonable to address the priority areas of interest and contribute to a culture of national preparedness. This part considers factors such as the objectives and strategies proposed to address the priority area, how the objectives and strategies overcome legal, political, or practical obstacles to reduce overall risk, the process and criteria to select additional relevant projects, and the approach to monitor awards to satisfy the funding percentage allocations.

FY 2021 HSGP NOFO Back to the Top
Exhibit 2 976

EXHIBIT F
45 For applicants that elect to submit IJs and project -level details for the National Priority Areas at the time of application, effectiveness will be evaluated prior to award. If the projects are found to not sufficiently align with the National Priority Area(s), applicants may have funds placed on hold (up to 30 percent) until the projects are revised to satisfactorily address the National Priority Areas.

For applicants that elect to submit IJs and project -level details for the National Priority Areas as part of the December 2021 BSIR, they will have funds placed on hold in the amount of 30 percent (the sum of all National Priority Area). The hold will be released only after their December 2021 BSIR submission has been reviewed, and projects related to the National Priority Areas deemed in alignment by DHS/FEMA.

SAAs are still required to meet pass -through requirements even if funds are on hold related to the National Priority Areas.

To that end, IJs should include:
• How the proposed investment addresses the National Priority Area; • An explanation of how the proposed projects were selected and will achieve objectives and strategies to build or sustain the core capability gaps identified in the SPR, including expected long-teiui impact where applicable; • A summary of laws, policies and practices that can be enhanced, eliminated, or otherwise changed in order to achieve the goals of the project and foster a culture of national preparedness; and
• A summary of the collaboration efforts to prevent, prepare for, protect against, and respond to acts of terrorism as well as anticipated outcomes of the project.

For FY 2021 SHSP and UASI investments and projects related to the National Priority Areas, effectiveness will be evaluated based on the following five factors:
• Investment Strategy (30%): Proposals will be evaluated based on the quality and extent to which applicants describe an effective strategy that demonstrates that proposed projects support the program objective of preventing, preparing for, protecting against, and responding to acts of terrorism, to meet its target capabilities, and otherwise reduce the overall risk to the high -risk urban area, the state, or the Nation.
• Budget (10%): Proposals will be evaluated based on the extent to which applicants describe a budget plan for each investment demonstrating how the applicant will maximize cost effectiveness of grant expenditures.
• Impact/Outcomes (30%): Proposals will be evaluated on how this investment helps the jurisdiction close capability gaps identified in its SPR and addresses the relevant National Priority Area outlined in this NOFO. Further, proposals will be evaluated on their identification and estimated improvement of core capability(ies), the associated standardized target(s) that align with their proposed investment, and the ways in which the applicant will measure and/or evaluate improvement.

FY 2021 HSGP NOFO Back to the Top
Exhibit 2 977

EXHIBIT F
46 • Collaboration (30%): Proposals will be evaluated based on the degree to which the proposal adequately details how the recipient will use investments and other means to overcome existing logistical, technological, legal, policy, and other impediments to collaborating, networking, sharing information, cooperating, and fostering a culture of national preparedness with federal, state, tribal, and local governments, as well as other regional and nonprofit partners. Collaboration should improve efforts to prevent, prepare for, protect against, and respond to acts of terrorism, to meet target capabilities, support the national security mission of DHS and other federal agencies, and to otherwise reduce the overall risk to the high -risk urban area, the state, or the Nation. In evaluating applicants under this factor FEMA will consider the information provided by the applicant and may also consider relevant information from other sources.
• Past Performance (additional consideration): Proposals will be evaluated based on the applicants demonstrated capability to execute the proposed investments. In evaluating applicants under this factor FEMA will consider the information provided by the applicant and may also consider relevant information from other sources. b. OPSG
Applications will be reviewed by the SAA and USBP Sector Headquarters for completeness and adherence to programmatic guidelines and evaluated for anticipated feasibility, need, and impact of the Operations Orders. For more information on Operations Orders and other requirements of OPSG, see the Preparedness Grants Manual.

DHS/FEMA will verify compliance with all administrative and eligibility criteria identified in the NOFO and required submission of Operations Orders and Inventory of Operations Orders by the established due dates. DHS/FEMA and USBP will use the results of both the risk analysis and the federal review by DHS/FEMA to make recommendations for funding to the Secretary of Homeland Security.

FY 2021 OPSG funds will be allocated competitively based on risk -based prioritization using the OPSG Risk Assessment described above. Final funding allocations are determined by the Secretary of Homeland Security, who may consider information and input from various law enforcement offices or subject -matter experts within the Department. Factors considered include, but are not limited to threat, vulnerability, miles of the border, and other border - specific law enforcement intelligence, as well as the feasibility of FY 2021 Operations Orders to designated localities within border states and territories.

F. Federal Award Administration Information

1. Notice of Award
Before accepting the award, the AOR and recipient should carefully read the award package.

The award package includes instructions on administering the grant award and the teiinis and conditions associated with responsibilities under federal awards. Recipients must accept all conditions in this NOFO and the Preparedness Grants anual as well as any specific terms and conditions in the Notice of Award to receive an award under this program.

See the Preparedness Grants Manual for information on Notice of Award.

FY 2021 HSGP NOFO Back to the Top
Exhibit 2 978

EXHIBIT F
47 2. Pass -Through Requirements
Awards made to the SAA for HSGP carry additional pass -through requirements. Pass - through is defined as an obligation on the part of the SAA to make funds available to local units of government, combinations of local units, tribal governments, or other specific groups or organizations. Four requirements must be met to pass -through grant funds:
• The SAA must make a firm written commitment to passing through grant funds to subrecipients;
• The SAA's commitment must be unconditional (i.e., no contingencies for the availability of SAA funds);
• There must be documentary evidence (i.e., award document, terms, and conditions) of the commitment; and
• The award terms must be communicated to the subrecipient.

Timing and Amount
The SAA must pass -through at least 80 percent of the funds awarded under the SHSP and UASI to local or tribal units of government within 45 calendar days of receipt of the funds. "Receipt of the funds" occurs either when the SAA accepts the award or 15 calendar days after the SAA receives notice of the award, whichever is earlier.

SAAs are sent notification of HSGP awards via the GPD's ND Grants system. If an SAA accepts its award within 15 calendar days of receiving notice of the award in the ND Grants system, the 45 -calendar days pass -through period will start on the date the SAA accepted the award. Should an SAA not accept the HSGP award within 15 calendar days of receiving notice of the award in the ND Grants system, the 45 -calendar days pass -through period will begin 15 calendar days after the award notification is sent to the SAA via the ND Grants system.

It is important to note that the period of performance start date does not directly affect the start of the 45 -calendar days pass -through period. For example, an SAA may receive notice of the HSGP award on September 20, 2021, while the period of performance dates for that award are October 1, 2021, through September 30, 2024. In this example, the 45 -day pass - through period will begin on the date the SAA accepts the HSGP award or October 5, 2021 (15 calendar days after the SAA was notified of the award), whichever date occurs first. The period of performance start date of October 1, 2021 would not affect the timing of meeting the 45 -calendar day pass -through requirement.

Other SHSP and UASI Pass -Through Requirements
The signatory authority of the SAA must certify in writing to DHS/FEMA that pass -through requirements have been met. A letter of intent (or equivalent) to distribute funds is not considered sufficient. The pass -through requirement does not apply to SHSP awards made to the District of Columbia, Guam, American Samoa, the U.S. Virgin Islands, or the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands. The Commonwealth of Puerto Rico is required to comply with the pass -through requirement, and its SAA must also obligate at least 80 percent of the funds to local units of government within 45 calendar days of receipt of the funds.

FY 2021 HSGP NOFO Back to the Top
Exhibit 2 979

EXHIBIT F
48 Under SHSP, the SAA may retain more than 20 percent of funding for expenditures made by the state on behalf of the local unit(s) of government. This may occur only with the written consent of the local unit of government, specifying the amount of funds to be retained and the intended use of funds. States shall review their written consent agreements yearly and ensure that they are still valid. If a written consent agreement is already in place from previous fiscal years, DHS/FEMA will continue to recognize it for FY 2021, unless the written consent review indicates the local government is no longer in agreement. If modifications to the existing agreement are necessary, the SAA should contact their assigned FEMA HQ Preparedness Officer.

Additional OPSG Requirements
The recipient is prohibited from obligating or expending funds provided through this award until each unique and specific county -level or equivalent Operational Order/Fragmentary Operations Order budget has been reviewed and approved through an official electronic mail notice issued by DHS/FEMA removing this special programmatic condition.

3. Administrative and National Policy Requirements
In addition to the requirements of in this section and in this NOFO, FEMA may place specific terius and conditions on individual awards in accordance with 2 C.F.R. Part 200.

In addition to the information regarding DHS Standard Terms and Conditions and Ensuring the Protection of Civil Rights, see the Preparedness Grants Manual for additional information on administrative and national policy requirements, including the following:
• EHP Compliance
• FirstNet
• NIMS Implementation
• SAFECOM.
a. DHS Standard Terms and Conditions
All successful applicants for DHS grant and cooperative agreements are required to comply with DHS Standard Terms and Conditions, which are available online at DHS Standard Teams and Conditions.

The applicable DHS Standard Tel us and Conditions will be those in effect at the time the award was made. What terms and conditions will apply for the award will be clearly stated in the award package at the time of award.
b. Ensuring the Protection of Civil Rights
As the Nation works towards achieving the National Preparedness Goal, it is important to continue to protect the civil rights of individuals. Recipients and subrecipients must carry out their programs and activities, including those related to the building, sustainment, and delivery of core capabilities, in a manner that respects and ensures the protection of civil rights for protected populations.

Exhibit 2 980

EXHIBIT F
49 Federal civil rights statutes, such as Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, along with FEMA regulations, prohibit discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, religion, age, disability, limited English proficiency, or economic status in connection with programs and activities receiving federal financial assistance from FEMA.

The DHS Standard Terms and Conditions include a fuller list of the civil rights provisions that apply to recipients. These terms and conditions can be found in the DHS Standard Teens and Conditions. Additional information on civil rights provisions is available at https://www.femagov/about/offices/equal-rihts .

Monitoring and oversight requirements in connection with recipient compliance with federal civil rights laws are also authorized pursuant to 44 C.F.R. Part 7. c. EHP Compliance
As a federal agency, FEMA is required to consider the effects of its actions on the environment and historic properties to ensure that all activities and programs funded by FEMA, including grant -funded projects, comply with federal EHP laws, Executive Orders, regulations, and policies, as applicable.

Recipients and subrecipients proposing projects that have the potential to impact the environment, including, but not limited to, the construction of communication towers, modification or renovation of existing buildings, structures, and facilities, or new construction including replacement of facilities, must participate in the FEMA EHP review process. The EHP review process involves the submission of a detailed project description along with any supporting documentation requested by FEMA in order to determine whether the proposed project has the potential to impact environmental resources or historic properties.

In some cases, FEMA is also required to consult with other regulatory agencies and the public in order to complete the review process. Federal law requires EHP review to be completed before federal funds are released to carry out proposed projects. FEMA may not be able to fund projects that are not incompliance with applicable EHP laws, Executive Orders, regulations, and policies.

DHS and FEMA EHP policy is found in directives and instructions available on the FEMA.gov EI1P pa e, the FEMA website page that includes documents regarding EHP responsibilities and program requirements, including implementation of the National Environmental Policy Act and other EHP regulations and Executive Orders.

The GPD EHP screening form is located at https://www.fema,gov/media- library/assets/documents/90195. Additionally, all recipients under this funding opportunity are required to comply with the FEMA GPD EHP Policy Guidance, FEMA Policy #108-023- 1, available at https://www.fema.gov/media-library/assets/documents/85376 .

EXHIBIT F
50 d. NIMS Implementation
In expending funds under this program, recipients that are state, local, tribal, or territorial governments must ensure and maintain adoption and implementation of NIMS. The state, local, tribal, or territorial government must show adoption of NIMS during any point of the period of performance. The list of objectives used for progress and achievement reporting is at https://www.fema.gov/emergency-managers/nims/implementation-training .

Emergency management and incident response activities require carefully managed resources (personnel, teams, facilities, equipment, and/or supplies) to meet incident needs. Using standardized resource management concepts such as typing, credentialing, and inventorying, promote a strong national mutual aid capability needed to support delivery of core capabilities. Additional information on resource management, NIMS resource typing definitions, job titles, and position qualifications is on FEMA's website at https://www.fernagov/emergency-managers/nims/components .

FEMA developed the National Incident Management System Guideline for the National qualification System to describe national credentialing standards and to provide written guidance regarding the use of those standards. This guideline describes credentialing and typing processes and identifies tools which Federal Emergency Response Officials and emergency managers at all levels of government may use both routinely and to facilitate multijurisdictional coordinated responses.

Although state, local, tribal, and private sector partners (including nongovernmental organizations) are not required to credential their personnel in accordance with these guidelines, FEMA strongly encourages them to do so to leverage the federal investment in the Federal Information Processing Standards 201 infrastructure and to facilitate interoperability for personnel deployed outside their home jurisdiction.

Additional information about NIMS in general is available at hit s:// www.fema . ov/emergencv mama ers/nims.
e. Emergency Communications Investments
If an entity uses HSGP funding to support emergency communications investments, the following requirements shall apply to all such grant -funded communications investments in support of the emergency communications priorities and recognized best practices:
• The signatory authority for the SAA must certify in writing to DHS/FEMA their compliance with the SAFECOM Guidance. The certification letter should be coordinated with the SWIC for each state and must be uploaded to ND Grants at the time of the first Program Performance Report (PPR) submission. • All states and territories must designate a full-time SWIC who has the authority and resources to actively improve interoperability with emergency management and response agencies across all levels of government, to include establishing statewide plans, policies, and procedures, and coordinating decisions on communications investments funded through federal grants. Note that the designated full-time SWIC may also be the state's or territory's cybersecurity point of contact. SWIC status FY 2021 HSGP NOFO Back to the Top
Exhibit 2 982

EXHIBIT F
51 information will be maintained by CISA and will be verified by FEMA GPD through programmatic monitoring activities.
• By the period of performance end date, all states and territories must update the SCIP, with a focus on communications resilience/continuity, to include assessment and mitigation of all potential risks identified in the SCIP: natural disasters, accidental damage (human failures), intentional damage (sabotage, terrorism), cybersecurity, etc.

Following the initial update, the SCIP should be updated on an annual basis. SCIP status information will be maintained by CISA and will be verified by FEMA GPD through programmatic monitoring activities.

All states and territories must test their emergency communications capabilities and procedures (as outlined in their operational communications plans) in conjunction with regularly planned exercises (separate/addition emergency communications exercises are not required) and must submit an After Action Report/Improvement Plan (AAR/IP) to the Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program's (HSEEP) electronic message inbox at hseep(a),fema.gov within 90 days of exercise completion. Exercises should be used to both demonstrate and validate skills learned in training and to identify gaps in capabilities.

Resilience and continuity of communications should be tested during training and exercises to the greatest extent possible. Further, exercises should include participants from multiple jurisdictions, disciplines, and levels of government and include emergency management, emergency medical services, law enforcement, interoperability coordinators, public health officials, hospital officials, officials from colleges and universities, and other disciplines and private sector entities, as appropriate. Findings from exercises should be used to update programs to address gaps in emergency communications as well as emerging technologies, policies, and partners. Recipients are encouraged to increase awareness and availability of emergency communications exercise opportunities across all levels of government.

States, territories, and other eligible grant recipients are advised that HSGP funding may be used to support communications planning (including the cost of hiring a SWIC, participation in governance bodies and requirements delineated above), training, exercises, and equipment costs. Costs for transitioning to the FirstNet network may also be eligible. More information regarding FirstNet can be found in the Preparedness Grants Manual.

4. Reporting
Recipients are required to submit various financial and programmatic reports as a condition of award acceptance. Future awards and funds drawdown may be withheld if these reports are delinquent.

See the Preparedness Grants Manual for information on reporting requirements, as well as the above section, "Emergency Communications Investments," specific reporting requirements for emergency communications investments.

5. Monitoring and Oversight

1. Termination Provisions
FEMA may terminate a federal award in whole or in part for one of the following reasons.

FEMA and the recipient must still comply with closeout requirements at 2 C.F.R. §§ 200.344-200.345 even if an award is terminated in whole or in part. To the extent that subawards are permitted under this NOFO, pass -through entities should refer to 2 C.F.R. § 200.340 for additional information on termination regarding subawards. a. Noncompliance
If a recipient fails to comply with the tell _ is and conditions of a federal award, FEMA may terminate the award in whole or in part. If the noncompliance can be corrected, FEMA may first attempt to direct the recipient to correct the noncompliance. This may take the foi in of a Compliance Notification. If the noncompliance cannot be corrected or the recipient is non- responsive, FEMA may proceed with a Remedy Notification, which could impose a remedy for noncompliance per 2 C.F.R. § 200.339, including termination. Any action to terminate based on noncompliance will follow the requirements of 2 C.F.R. §§ 200.341-200.342 as well as the requirement of 2 C.F.R. § 200.340(c) to report in FAPIIS the recipient's material failure to comply with the award teiins and conditions. See also the section on Actions to Address Noncompliance in this NOFO or in the Preparedness Grants Manual. b. With the Consent of the Recipient
FEMA may also terminate an award in whole or in part with the consent of the recipient, in which case the parties must agree upon the termination conditions, including the effective date, and in the case of partial termination, the portion to be terminated. c. Notification by the Recipient
The recipient may terminate the award, in whole or in part, by sending written notification to FEMA setting forth the reasons for such termination, the effective date, and in the case of partial termination, the portion to be terminated. In the case of partial termination, FEMA may determine that a partially terminated award will not accomplish the purpose of the federal award, so FEMA may terminate the award in its entirety. If that occurs, FEMA will follow the requirements of 2 C.F.R. §§ 200.341-200.342 in deciding to fully terminate the award.

2. Period of Performance Extensions
Extensions to the period of perfoiiiiance (POP) for this program are allowed. Extensions to the POP identified in the award will only be considered through formal, written requests to the recipient's FEMA Preparedness Officer and must contain specific and compelling justifications as to why an extension is required. Recipients are advised to coordinate with the FEMA Preparedness Officer as needed when preparing an extension request. Please see the Preparedness Grants Manual for more information.
