criteria, “ministerial” actions. As a result, the approval of these developments pre-empts local discretionary land use authority, bypasses the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and ignores public input.
City officials intimately understand the housing crisis as it plays out in their communities every day. Local leaders are working to find creative solutions so homes of all income levels can be built.
Cities are finalizing local housing plans that will identify sites for more than 2.5 million new homes statewide, all while navigating the state’s annual barrage of overreaching housing bills that have thus far demonstrated limited success.
The City of Richmond has many housing development projects that the Richmond City Council needs the ability to review and make decisions that work best for Richmond, its residents and potential residents.
SB 423 is the latest overreaching bill, and would force cities to approve certain housing projects without regard to the needs of the community, opportunities for environmental review, or public input.
Instead of continuing to pursue top-down, one-size-fits-all legislation, lawmakers should partner with local officials. This is why the City of Richmond is calling on the Governor and lawmakers to include a $3 billion annual investment in the state budget to help cities prevent and reduce homelessness and spur housing development.
Targeted, ongoing funding is the only way cities can find community-based solutions that get our residents off the streets and keep them in their homes. California will never produce the number of homes needed with an increasingly state driven, by-right housing approval process.

Chair, Senate Committee on Housing
1021 O Street, Suite 3330
Sacramento, CA 95814
RE: SB 423 (Wiener) Streamlined housing approvals: multifamily housing developments:
SB 35 (Chapter 366, Statutes of 2017) Expansion.
Notice of Opposition
Dear Senator Wiener:
The Your City/Town writes to express our opposition to your measure, SB 423, which would greatly expand SB 35 (Chapter 366, Statutes of 2017) provisions and eliminate the Jan. 1, 2026 sunset date.
On any given day, newspaper headlines in California and across the nation are highlighting the state’s growing housing supply and affordability crisis. Seven in ten Californians view housing affordability as one of the top problems in their community, and there is growing concern from residents that housing prices are so expensive, younger generations will be priced out of ever being able to buy a home.
Your City/Town intimately understands this crisis as it plays out in our community every day.
Local leaders are working to find creative solutions so homes of all income levels can be built.
They’re taking on these difficult and complex tasks, and in many cases successfully planning for more than 2.5 million new homes statewide, all while navigating the state’s annual barrage of overreaching housing bills that have thus far demonstrated limited success.
SB 423 is the latest overreaching bill. This measure would double-down on the recent trend of the state overriding its own mandated local housing plans by forcing cities to approve certain housing projects without regard to the needs of the community, opportunities for environmental review, or public input. While it may be frustrating for some developers to address neighborhood concerns about traffic, parking, and other development impacts, those directly affected by such projects have a right to be heard. Public engagement also often leads to better projects. Not having such outlets will increase public distrust in government and result in additional ballot measures limiting housing development. 29 [If you have specific examples of the impact of this bill on your city/town, please include here.]
Instead of continuing to pursue top-down, one-size-fits-all legislation, lawmakers should partner with local officials. That’s why the League of California Cities is calling on the Governor and lawmakers to include a $3 billion annual investment in the state budget to help cities prevent and reduce homelessness and spur housing development. Targeted, ongoing funding is the only way cities can find community-based solutions that get our residents off the streets and keep them in their homes. California will never produce the number of homes needed with an increasingly state driven, by-right housing approval process. What is really needed is a sustainable state investment that matches the scale of this long-term crisis.
For these reasons, Your City/Town respectfully opposes your measure,
Sincerely,

ACTION:
The City Council adopted Resolution No. 92-17 banning
travel to states that have enacted laws that discriminate against the LGBTQ community. On February 21, 2023,
the City Council authorized Vice Mayor Mclaughlin,
Councilmember Bana, and Councilmember Zepeda to
attend.
STATEMENT OF THE
ISSUE:
Approval by the City Council is needed to authorize
travel to a state listed as having enacted laws that
discriminate against the LGBTQ community. Eligible
exceptions may apply to allow travel.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
APPROVE travel requests for Jesus M. Morales, Housing
Manager, and Robert Armijo, Deputy Director of Public
Works/City Engineer to attend the Symposium for
Goodness’ Sake in Austin, Texas to learn about the
Community First! Village model for addressing
intractabl e homelessness – Community Development
(Lina Velasco 510-620- 6841).
AGENDA
REPORT
31 April 4, 2023
DISCUSSION:
The April 25-27, 2023, Symposium for Goodness’ Sake (see Attachment 2) is an in- person event in Austin, Texas addressing the very successful model to address intractable homelessness. Vice Mayor McLaughlin, and Councilmembers Bana and Zepeda are attending the symposium to learn about the Community First! Village model for consideration in Richmond and Contra Costa County. City staff is seeking approval to send Jesus M. Morales, Housing Manager, and Robert Armijo, Deputy Director of Public Works/City Engineer to participate in this information gathering trip.
Community First! Villages is a model designed for the chronically homeless and offers them permanent housing and community. It is a 51-acre master planned community in Austin, TX with tents, RVs, and tiny homes, for which residents pay rent while they live and work in the community. There are communal kitchens, art studios, a blacksmith studio, gardens in which to work, community events, an outdoor amphitheater, and many earn income by working the grounds or the kitchens or selling their arts and crafts. The county offers wrap around services on site and residents can access other jobs and services via bus. Those who have the greatest issues find a place in which they can heal. Those with childhood trauma tell the story of finding themselves for the first time. The larger community takes an active role in the solution, which revolves around the idea that “For our homeless friends to truly settle, heal and transform their lives, they need much more than four walls and a roof to no longer be homeless. They need relationships. They need dignity and a renewed sense of hope. They need community.”
The Community First! experience provides centralized social services, peer to peer support, and a quality of life not possible in shelters or on the street. It also provides an opportunity for the larger community to have a positive interaction with those in the program. Jurisdictions across the nation have been invited to the symposium.
City staff is requesting approval of this travel by the City Council since there is a ban on traveling to states that discriminate against the LGBTQ community per Resolution No. 92-17 (see Attachment 1).
As part of the approval process to travel to the symposium, the City Manager will have to sign Travel Request Forms upon approval by the City Council. City staff would like the City Council to consider the following exceptions and approve the subject staff’s travel to Texas request.
Resolution No. 92-17 provides for travel exceptions to be approved for the following reasons:
For the protection of public health, welfare, or safety, as determined by the affected agency, department, board, authority, or commission; Participation in events, conference, training, or other activities that have a stated purpose of advancing … pro-equality related issues that are directly relevant to 32 April 4, 2023
the city agency…
As noted above, this information gathering event will assist City staff in learning more about the Community First! Village model for consideration in Richmond and Contra Costa County.

DISCUSSION:
The entire Bay Area, including Richmond, experienced heavy rains and flooding, from December of 2022 through mid-January of 2023. On January 3, 2023, the City of Richmond Police and Fire Departments responded to reports of a landslide on Seaview Drive. Due to the severe storms, the hillside above Seacliff Drive and Seaview Drive in the Brickyard Cove area became unstable and endangered residential homes on Seaview Drive. Due to the heavy rain, and out of abundance of caution, the residents of the endangered area homes were stron gly recommended to evacuate . That same day, the City of Richmond Emergency Operations Center (“EOC”) was activated to support the incident and protect the community.
On January 9, 2023, during a special Richmond City Council meeting, the City Council ratified the proclamation of emergency that was issued on January 3, 2023, by the Director of Emergency Services (City Manager). California Government Code Section 8630 and Richmond Municipal Code Section 2.20.060 empower the Director of Emergency Services to proclaim the existence or threatened existence of a local emergency when a city is affected or likely to be affected by a public calamity and the City Council is not in session, provided that the emergency proclamation is ratified by the City Council within seven days.
During the existence of the emergency, the Director of Emergency Services is empowered to “make emergency procurements of supplies and services when there exists a threat to public health, welfare, or safety” so long as City Council approval for contracts over $10,000 is obtained. As events unfolded, City staff was able to secure temporary shelter for the evacuated residents and their pets at the Hyatt Place in Emeryville. The Director of Emergency Services also procured security services from Allied Universal Security Services to monitor the evacuated residences. Finally, the City secured the services of Julian Tree Care company, to assist with downed tree s arising from the rainstorms.
The not-to-exceed compensation amounts of the individual expenditures were as follows:
Hyatt Place - $42,000
Allied Universal Security Services - $72,000
Julian Tree Care - $60,000
Ultimately, the services procured from Hyatt Place cost $41,250. Allied Universal Security Services billed the City $42,400, and Julian Tree Services billed the City $12,500. City staff recommend that the City Council approve the emergency contracts issued under the EOC with Allied Universal Security Services and Julian Tree Care, and the emergency expenditure with Hyatt Place Emeryville paid via credit card.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Contractor shall immediately defend and indemnify the City and its officers, agents, employees, and volunteers from and against any and all liabilities, regardless of nature or type, that arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the Contractor, or its employees, agents, or subcontractors.
Liabilities subject to the duties to defend and indemnify include, without limitation, any and all claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, and judgments; associated investigation and administrative expenses; defense costs, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees; court costs; and costs of alternative dispute resolution. Contractor’s obligation to 54 General Conditions/EJ/TE 01-19-11 7 of 13
indemnify applies unless it is finally adjudicated that the liability was caused by the sole active negligence or sole willful misconduct of an indemnified party.

The obligation to defend extends through final judgment, including exhaustion of any appeals. The defense obligation includes an obligation to provide independent counsel if Contractor asserts that liability is caused in whole, or in part, by the negligence or willful misconduct of an indemnified party.

CONTRACTOR agrees to defend and indemnify the City of Richmond for any damage resulting to it from failure of either CONTRACTOR or any subcontractor to take out or maintain the required insurance policies.

(continued from emergency justification form)
The EOC was activated during severe winter storms on January 3, 2023, after a local geologist noticed the seismic shifting of the hillside above 15 homes located on Seaview Drive. With an immediate response, City Manager Shasa Curl declared an emergency and enacted the Emergency Operations Center to keep an eye on the developing situation. The first consultant stated that the 15 homes should be evacuated until they know more about the situation. Police and fire went door to door knocking and notifying residents that they had to evacuate since time was of the essence.
Due to the fact that the Hyatt in nearby Emeryville had a block of rooms available to handle the size of the group and because the Police Department had a rate lock for hotel rooms at the Hyatt, the Hyatt was quickly chosen as the hotel to house the 15 families displaced by the emergency order. The emergency order was confirmed at the January 9, 2023, council meeting and resolution 1-23 was passed. The resolution stated that the emergency order would end at a later agreed upon date, at which point the residents would be able to return to their homes on Seaview Drive. The ending date was January 28, 2023.
Further details are included in the attached Agenda Report presented to council January 9, 2023. Thank you.

SUBJECT:
Approve the City Manager’s proclamation of a local
emergency due to flooding in Richmond and large
landslide on a hillside on Seaview Drive
FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no financial impact related to this item.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL
ACTION:
None.
STATEMENT OF THE
ISSUE:
On January 3, 2023, the City Manager, in her capacity as Director of Emergency Services, proclaimed a local
emergency due to heavy flooding from severe winter
storms and a geologic hazard/landslide on the slope
above the Seacliff development in Richmond. The City
Council must approve this proclamation of local
emergency within seven days of making such a
proclamation or else it will lapse.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
ADOPT a resolution ratifying the proclamation of a local emergency in the City of Richmond issued by the city
manager (Director of Emergency Services) on January 3,
2023, due to heavy rains, flooding, and a large landslide on a hillside on Seaview Drive that forced the evacuation of residents in the impacted area – City Manager’s Office (Shasa Curl 510-620-6512)
AGENDA
REPORT
132
January 9, 2023
DISCUSSION:
The entire Bay Area, including Richmond , has experienced heavy rains and flooding, including an atmospheric river, throughout December of 2022 , and is still experiencing a parade of storms the first two weeks in January. On January 3, 2023, it was reported that a hillside on Seaview Drive, with an APN of 560-330-041, was showing signs of a significant landslide as a result of the December rains and atmospheric river.
As a result of a possible landslide, the City’s consultant NCE and subconsultant Cal Engineering & Geology, Inc. evaluated photos provided by the City of the landslide and aerial imagery available on Google Earth Pro of the hillside above Seacliff Drive. They determined that “there is a large landslide on the hillside that has definitive evidence of a head scarp in the area near the top of the ridge and lateral margins that extend down to Seaview Drive and possibly beneath and beyond Seaview Drive.” The head is the upslope portion of the landslide, and the scarp is the steeply inclined failure surface with exposed rock and soil. The consultants strongly recommended that the eight (8) homes on Seaview Drive and the seven (7) homes on Seacliff Way immediately west of and closest to Seacliff Drive be evacuated until the landslide could be more thoroughly evaluated. The consultants recommended the evacuations be done immediately to reduce the potential for life safety issues that could result for movement of the landslide, particularly considering the forecasted amount of rain that was to fall that night and over the next several days.
Based on this information, on the evening of January 3, 2023, the City Manager, in her capacity as Director of Emergency Services, proclaimed a local emergency , and the City of Richmond Emergency Operations Center (“EOC”) was activated to support the incident and additional incidents throughout the City due to the severe winter storms [Attachment 1, Emergency Proclamation]. The EOC is still activated and City staff members, including Fire and Police Department personnel, are staffing the EOC in the basement of the Richmond City Hall located at 450 Civic Center Plaza.
Due to additional storms approaching with anticipated heavy rainfall, and out of abundance of caution, residents of Seaview Drive and Seacliff Way were asked to evacuate, which included a total of 15 impacted homes. Fire and Police personnel knocked on doors within the impacted area to inform residents of the potential danger and provided evacuation notices with instructions. Of the 15 households, City personnel were unable to contact three (3) households, two (2) were out of town and ten (10) families decided to evacuate (with their pets). Due to heavy utilization of Red Cross throughout the State, City staff members were proactive and able to secure temporary shelter at the Hyatt Place in Emeryville for evacuated residents. These residents remain out of their homes until the Seacliff Homeowners’ Association completes remediation efforts to ensure the area is safe for reentry. City staff continues to monitor the situation, and as of January 5, 2023, have extended access to hotel rooms through January 9, 2023.
133
January 9, 2023
The Director of Emergency Services (City Manager) may request the City Council to proclaim the existence or threatened existence of a "local emergency” if the City Council is in session, or to issue such proclamation if the City Council is not in session. Since the City Council was not in session at the t ime, the City Manager declared the local emergency by proclamation. Whenever a local emergency is proclaimed by the Director, the City Council must ratify the proclamation within seven days thereafter or the proclamation will lapse [Richmond Municipal Code Section
2.20.060]. The proposed resolution is approving the proclamation of the emergency order so that it can remain in effect while the Seacliff Homeowners’ Association continues remediation efforts, and a determination is made that the residents may safely return to their homes [Attachment 2].

Although, the net value for the City in this partnership is negative $31,788 annually and $158,940 for a five-year period, the value of this free program to our community outweighs the negative monetary value.
City staff is seeking City Council approval to waive the fees associated with using these spaces for this program and to approve the partnership Memorandum of Understanding between West Coast Alliance and the City of Richmond.

AGENDA
REPORT
200
April 4, 2023
DISCUSSION:
On August 20, 2021, the City of Richmond’s Employment and Training Division was awarded $893,164 from the U.S. Department of Labor and Training & Employment Administration (DOL/ETA) (Attachment 1). The award is a part of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) National Dislocated Worker Emergency Grant (NDWEG) program, designed to address the workforce impacts resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, specifically for dislocated workers. Dislocated Workers are defined as a person who has involuntarily lost their job for reasons beyond their control such as:
A person who is long-term unemployed
A person who has been terminated
An individual who is temporarily or permanently laid off as a consequence of an emergency or disaster
An individual who is self-employed and becomes unemployed or significantly underemployed as a result of the emergency or disaster
In November 2022, Hello Fresh closed its Richmond location which resulted in a loss of 611 jobs. Eighty percent of those affected by the plant closure were Spanish-speaking residents. To assist those who were affected by the closure, we are requesting to amend our current contract with Weigh of Life to include outreach, recruitment, and supportive services to the former English Language Learner (ELL) employees.
We currently partner with Weigh of Life in the ELL grant as a core partner to provide the following contractual services:
Client outreach, assessment, career coaching, mentoring Recruitment
Childcare assistance
Weigh of Life has extensive experience in working with the immigrant and ELL population. Their participation in supporting the former Hello Fresh employees will play a significant role in the successful outreach, recruitment, and retention of program participants.
The amended contract with Weigh of Life (Attachment 2) will assist the Employment and Training Division in achieving the benchmarks established by the CAREER grant (Attachment 3).

City of Richmond Insurance Requirements – Type 5:
Vendors, Suppliers, Small Grant Recipients & Nonprofit
Organizations
Type 5 - Page 1 of 3
Revised: September 2011
In all instances where CONTRACTOR or its representatives will be conducting business and/or providing services to the City of Richmond (City), or will be awarded City of Richmond (City) funds to provide programs or services, the City requires the following MINIMUM insurance requirements and limits.
CONTRACTOR shall procure and maintain for the duration of the contract, agreement, or other order for work, services or supplies, insurance against claims for injuries to persons or damages to property which may arise from or in connection with the performance of the work hereunder and the results of that work by the CONTRACTOR, its agents, representatives, or subcontractors. Maintenance of proper insurance coverage is a material element of the contract. Failure to maintain or renew coverage or to provide evidence of renewal may be treated by the City as a material breach of contract.
CONTRACTOR agrees that in the event of loss due to any of the perils for which it has agreed to provide Commercial General Liability insurance, CONTRACTOR shall look solely to its insurance for recovery.
CONTRACTOR hereby grants to CITY, on behalf of any insurer providing Commercial General Liability insurance to either CONTRACTOR or CITY with respect to the services of CONSULTANT herein, a waiver of any right to subrogation which any such insurer of said CONTRACTOR may acquire against the CITY by virtue of the payment of any loss under such insurance.
Original, signed certificates and original, separate policy endorsements, naming the City as an additional insured for general liability, as well as a waiver of subrogation for Workers’ Compensation insurance, shall be received and approved by the City before any work may begin. However, failure to do so shall not operate as a waiver of these insurance requirements.
City reserves the right to modify or require additional coverages for specific risk exposures depending on scope of CONTRACTORS work.
Minimum coverage is detailed below. The policy limits of coverage shall be made available to the full limits of the policy. The minimum limits stated herein shall not serve to reduce the policy limits of coverage of CONTRACTOR.
Minimum Scope of Insurance – the following forms shall be provided and coverage shall be at least as broad as the following:
1. Insurance Services Office Commercial General Liability coverage (ISO Occurrence Form CG 0001)
2. Insurance Services Office Automobile Liability coverage (ISO Form CA 0001, Code 1, Any Auto)
3. Original and Separate Additional Insured Endorsements for General Liability (ISO Form CG 20 10 11/85 or its equivalent) with primary and non-contributory language.
4. Workers’ Compensation insurance as required by the State of California including Employer’s Liability (for CONTRACTOR’s with employees);
5. Original and Separate Waiver of Subrogation for Workers’ Compensation Insurance.
6. Fidelity Bond/Crime Coverage – in an amount stipulated by City depending upon scope of contract.
Required Coverage Minimum Limits
Workers’ Compensation and
Employers’ Liability
Statutory limits as required by the State of California including $1 million Employers’ Liability per accident, per employee for bodily injury or disease.
If CONTRACTOR
is self-insured, provide a certificate of Permission to Self- Insure, signed by the California Department of Industrial Relations and Self- Insurance. If contractor is a sole proprietor (has no employees) than contractor must sign “Contractor Release of Liability” located at:
http://www.ci.richmond.ca.us/index.aspx?nid=61
.
General Liability
(primary and excess limits
combined)
$1,000,000 per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury and property damage. If the policy includes a general aggregate, either the general aggregate shall apply separately to this project, service or location or the minimum required aggregate limit shall be twice the per occurrence limit ($4 million aggregate).
Policy shall also include coverage for liability arising out of the use and operation of any City-owned or City-furnished equipment used or operated by the CONTRACTOR, its personnel, agents or subcontractors.
Policy shall be endorsed to name the City of Richmond as an additional insured per the conditions detailed below.

Applicable to General Liability Coverage.
The City of Richmond, its officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers are to be named as additional insureds for all liability arising out of the operations by or on behalf of the named insured including bodily injury, deaths and property damage or destruction arising in any respect directly or indirectly in the performance of this contract.
ISO form CG 20 10 (11/85) or its equivalent is required. The endorsement must not
exclude products and completed operations
coverage. If it does, then CG 20 37 (10/01) is also required.

SAMPLE ENDORSEMENT can be found at
http://www.ci.richmond.ca.us/index.aspx?nid=61
.
Primary and Noncontributory The contractor’s insurance coverage must be primary coverage as it pertains to the City, its officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers. Any insurance or self insurance maintained by the City is wholly separate from the insurance of the contractor and in no way relieves the contractor from its responsibility to provide insurance.
A. M. Best Rating A:VII or Better. If the A.M. Best Rating falls below the required rating, CONTRACTOR must replace coverage immediately and provide notice to City.
Deductibles and Self-Insured
Retentions

Contractor is responsible for satisfaction of the deductible and/or self-insured retention for each loss.
Umbrella/Excess Liability Policies
If an Umbrella or Excess Liability Policy is used to meet the liability limits, coverage shall be as broad as specified for underlying coverages and cover those insured in the underlying policies.

Revised: September 2011
Subcontractors
CONTRACTOR shall include all subcontractors as insured under its policies or shall furnish to the City for review and approval, separate certificates and endorsements for each subcontractor. All coverage for subcontractors shall be subject to all of the requirements stated herein.
CONTRACTOR agrees to defend and indemnify the City of Richmond for any damage resulting to it from failure of either CONTRACTOR or any subcontractor to take out or maintain the required insurance policies. The fact that insurance is obtained by CONTRACTOR, and/or CONTRACTOR’s subcontractors, will not be deemed to release or diminish the liability of CONTRACTOR, including, without limitation, liability under the indemnity provisions of this contract. Damages recoverable by CITY from CONTRACTOR or any third party will not be limited by the amount of the required insurance coverage.
Verification of Coverage
All original certificates and endorsements shall be received and approved by the City before work may begin .
The City of Richmond reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies including endorsements affecting the coverage at any time.
Original insurance certificates and required policy endorsements shall be mailed or delivered to the Designated Project Manager for the City of Richmond.
Insurance certificates and endorsements may be faxed to the Designated Project Manager. However, Contractor must mail the original certificates and endorsements to Designated Project Manager once faxed.
Continuous Coverage
CONTRACTOR shall maintain the required insurance for the life of the contract. Should the CONTRACTOR cease to have insurance as required during this time, all work by the CONTRACTOR pursuant to this agreement shall cease until insurance acceptable to the City is provided. In the event that CONTRACTOR fails to comply with the City’s insurance requirements, the City may take such action as it deems necessary to protect the City’s interests. Such action may include but is not limited to termination of the contract, withholding of payments, or other actions as the City deems appropriate.
If services or the scope of work extend beyond the expiration dates of the required insurance policies initially approved by the City, CONTRACTOR
must provide updated certificates and endorsements indicating that the required coverage, terms and conditions are still in place. Renewal certificates and updated endorsements shall be mailed to the Designated Project Manager.
Cancellation
CONTRACTOR shall ensure that coverage shall not be cancelled, reduced or otherwise materially changed except after thirty (30) days’ prior written notice has been given to the City.
Reporting Requirements
Any failure to comply with reporting or other provisions of the policies including breaches of warranties shall not affect coverage provided to the City, its officers, officials, employees or volunteers.
Consistent with Public Policy
The insuring provisions, insofar as they may be judged to be against public policy shall be void and unenforceable only to the minimum extent necessary so that the remaining terms and provisions herein may be consistent with public policy and thus enforceable.

4 1. Order of Precedence
In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Notice of Award (NOA) and other requirements, the following order of precedence shall apply:
I. Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act
II. Other applicable Federal statutes.
III. Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 (Public Law 116-260) dated December 27, 2020.
IV. Implementing Regulations.
V. Executive Orders and Presidential Memoranda.
VI. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Guidance, including the Uniform Guidance at 2 CFR 200 and 2900.
VII. Training and Employment Guidance Letter WIOA No. 12-19, Operational Guidance for National Dislocated Worker Grants.
VIII. Terms and conditions of this award.
2. Notice of Award
The funds that are provided under this NOA must be expended according to all applicable Federal statutes, regulations and policies, including those of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA), the applicable approved WIOA State Plan (including approved modifications and amendments to the plan), and any waiver plan approved under WIOA Section 189(i)(3) or Workforce Flexibility (Workflex) plan approved under WIOA Section 190, the negotiated performance levels and policies established pursuant to the Secretary’s authority under WIOA Section 116, and the applicable provisions in the appropriations act(s).
T
he funds shall be obligated and allocated via a NOA grant modification. These obligations and expenditures may not exceed the amount awarded by the NOA modification unless otherwise modified by the ETA.
3. Funding Opportunity Announcement
Training and Employment Guidance Letter (TEGL) WIOA No. 12-19 transmits the funding opportunity associated with this award. TEGL No. 12-19 and all applicable amendments are hereby incorporated into the Notice of Award. Award recipients are bound by the authorizations, restrictions, and requirements contained in the FOA.
Therefore, the expenditure of grant funds by the award recipient certifies that your organization has read and will comply with all the parts that are contained in the NOA.
4. Administrative Law Judge Removal of Award
By drawing down funds, your organization as the award recipient agrees to the provisions of 20 CFR 683.820(b)(6), which states:
“
Any organization selected and/or funded under WIOA Title I, Subtitle D, is subject to having its award removed if an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) decision so orders. As part of this 244
5 process, the Grant Officer will provide instructions on transition and closeout to both the newly selected grantee and to the grantee whose positions is affected or which is being removed.”
5. Federal Project Officer
The DOL/ETA Federal Project Officer (FPO) for this award is:
N
ame: Noel Woods
Telephone: 415-625-7966
E-mail: [email protected]
T
he FPO is not authorized to change any of the terms or conditions of the award, or approve prior approval requests. Any changes to the terms or conditions or prior approvals must be approved by the Grant Officer through the use of a formally executed award modification process.
6. Indirect Cost Rate and Cost Allocation Plan
Indirect (facilities & administrative (F&A)) costs means those costs incurred for a common or joint purpose benefitting more than one cost objective, and not readily assignable to the cost objectives specifically benefitted, without effort disproportionate to the results achieved. Direct costs, by contrast, can be identified specifically with a particular final cost objective, such as a Federal award, or other internally or externally funded activity, or that can be directly assigned to such activities relatively easily with a high degree of accuracy. Identification with the Federal award rather than the nature of the goods and services involved is the determining factor in distinguishing direct from indirect (F&A) costs of Federal awards.
I
f the DOL serves as the Federal Cognizant Agency (FCA) for the grant award recipient, then the grantee must work with DOL’s Cost & Price Determination Division (CPDD), which has delegated authority to negotiate and issue a Negotiated Indirect Cost Rate Agreement (NICRA) or Cost Allocation Plan (CAP) on behalf of the Federal Government. More information about the DOL’s CPDD is available at https://www.dol.gov/agencies/oasam/centers-offices/office-of-the-senior-procurement- executive/cost-price-determination-division. This website has guidelines to develop indirect cost rates, links to the applicable cost principles, and contact information. The CPDD also has Frequently Asked Questions to provide general information about the indirect cost rate approval process and due dates for provisional and final indirect cost rate proposals at
https://www.dol.gov/agencies/oasam/centers-offices/office-of-the- senior-procurement-executive/cost-price-determination-division/faq.
I
f a new NICRA is issued during the grant’s period of performance, it must be provided to DOL within 30 days of issuance. Funds may be re-budgeted as necessary between direct cost categories as long as it is consistent with the Budget Flexibility term within this agreement, grant requirements, and DOL regulations on prior approval. However, the total amount of the grant award will not be increased.
245
6 ___ A. A federally approved NICRA or federally approved CAP covering a portion of the grant period of performance is attached.
Regarding only the NICRA:
(1) Indirect Rate approved: See Attachment E
(2) Type of Indirect Cost Rate: See Attachment E
(3) Allocation Distribution Base: See Attachment E
(4) Current beginning and ending period applicable to rate: See Attachment E *Estimated Indirect Costs are shown on the SF-424A budget form.
___ B. (1)______The provided NICRA or CAP approved by the FCA does not cover a portion of the period of performance, or
(2)______Indirect costs are being claimed on the SF-424A, however an indirect cost rate proposal or CAP has not yet been submitted for approval to the FCA.
URGENT NOTICE: Estimated indirect costs have been specified on the SF- 424A, Section B, Object Class Category “j”, however only the de minimis rate of 10% of Modified Total Direct Costs (MTDC) will be released to support the indirect costs in the absence of a NICRA or CAP approved by the FCA. The remaining funds which have been awarded for Indirect Costs are restricted and may not be used for any purpose until the recipient provides a signed copy of the NICRA or CAP and receive documentation stating that the restriction is lifted by the Grant Officer. Upon receipt of the NICRA or CAP, the Grant Officer will issue a grant modification to the award to remove the restriction on those funds.
As the grant award recipient, the grantee must submit an indirect cost rate proposal or CAP. If the FCA for indirect costs is DOL, these documents should be submitted to the DOL’s Cost & Price Determination Division (CPDD) (see https://www.dol.gov/agencies/oasam/centers-offices/office-of-the-senior- procurement-executive/cost-price-determination-division ). Otherwise, they should be submitted to the grant award recipient’s FCA. Alternatively, the grantee may request the de minimis rate if eligible (see section D. below). In addition, the recipient must notify the FPO that the documents have been submitted to the appropriate FCA. If the grant recipient does not submit a NICRA proposal within 90 days of award, they may be limited to the de minimis rate of 10% of Modified Total Direct Costs (MTDC). See section D below for more details and definitions.
__X_ C. The grant award recipient elected to exclude indirect costs from the proposed budget. Please be aware that incurred indirect costs (such as top management salaries, financial oversight, human resources, payroll, personnel, auditing costs, accounting and legal, etc. used for the general oversight and administration of the organization) must not be classified as direct costs; these types of costs are indirect costs. Only direct costs, as defined by the applicable 246
7 cost principles, will be charged. According to 2 CFR 200.412, if indirect costs are misclassified as direct costs, such costs may become disallowed through an audit.
___ D. The grant award recipient does not have a current negotiated (including provisional) rate and may elect to charge a de minimis rate of 10% of modified total direct costs (MTDC) which may be used indefinitely. A governmental department or agency unit that receives more than $35 million in direct Federal funding must submit its indirect cost rate proposal to its cognizant agency for indirect costs and cannot request a de minimis rate. This methodology must be used consistently for all Federal grant awards until such time as the grant award recipient chooses to negotiate for an indirect cost rate, which the grantee may apply to do at any time. See 2 CFR 200.414(f) for more information on use of the de minimis rate. Please be aware that incurred indirect type costs (such as top management salaries, financial oversight, human resources, payroll, personnel, auditing costs, accounting and legal, etc. used for the general oversight and administration of the organization) must not be classified as direct costs; these types of costs are recovered as part of charging the de minimis rate.
All grant recipients with an approved NICRA or de minimis rate must report indirect costs on their FINAL ETA-9130 Form. If a grant recipient has a NICRA and a CAP, only the indirect costs tied to the NICRA are reported on the ETA-9130 Form. The grantee can refer to Training and Employment Guidance Letter (TEGL) 20-19 and https://www.doleta.gov/grants/pdf/ETA-9130_Financial_Reporting_Resources.pdf for
additional guidance.
7. Approved Statement of Work
This project’s narrative is the approved SOW. It has been included as Attachment D. If there is any inconsistency between the project narrative and the program statute, appropriation, regulations, Executive Orders, Uniform Guidance, OMB Circulars, and DOL/ETA directives, the order of precedence (as described in Section 1. above) will prevail.
8. Approved Budget
The grant award recipient’s budget documents are attached in this NOA. The documents are: 1) the SF-424, included as Attachment A; 2) the SF-424 A, included as Attachment B; and 3) the Budget Narrative, included as Attachment C. As the grant award recipient, the grantee must confirm that all costs are allowable before creating any expenses.
Pursuant to 2 CFR 2900.1, the approval of the budget as awarded does not constitute prior approval of those items specified in 2 CFR part 200 or as a part of the grant award as requiring prior approval. The Grant Officer is the only official with the authority to provide such approval. Any changes to the budget that impact the Statement of Work The Grant Officer is the only official with the authority to provide such approval. Any changes to the budget that impact the Statement of Work (SOW) and agreed upon outcomes or deliverables will require a request for modification and prior approval from the Grant Officer.
247
8 If the period of performance will include multiple budget periods, subsequent budget periods are subject to the availability of funds, program authority, satisfactory performance, and compliance terms and conditions of the Federal award.
9. Return of Funds
DOL/ETA does not accept paper checks for any type of returned funds. For active grants, all returns of funds are to be submitted electronically through the PMS operated by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) via the same method as a drawdown. For grants that have been cancelled or are expired (typically older than five years), incoming payments, including returns and recoveries to DOL, must be made via the Pay.gov website (https://www.pay.gov/public/form/start/177233981).
If there are questions regarding the return of funds or your organization no longer has access to PMS, contact the DOL, ETA, Office of Financial Administration via email at:
[email protected]
for further assistance.
10. Evaluation, Data, and Implementation
As the grant award recipient, the grantee must cooperate during the implementation of a third-party evaluation. This means providing DOL or its authorized contractor with the appropriate data and access to program operating personnel and participants in a timely manner.
11. Cost Limitation Restrictions
a. Administrative Costs
Administrative costs under this award follow the definition in the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act at 20 CFR 683.215.
There is a 15 percent limitation on a DWG project’s total administrative costs when the direct recipient is not also serving as the project operator. Unless a written justification is approved by the Grant Officer, administrative costs may not exceed this 15 percent limit.
Direct recipients of DWG funds are limited to spending no more than 5 percent of the total award on administrative costs, and the project operator(s) may retain up to 10 percent of the award amount (for a total of 15 percent of the award). Compliance with the administrative costs limit is monitored throughout the grant period. Any amounts exceeding this limitation at closeout will be disallowed and subject to debt collection.
For DWG recipients who are also serving as the project operator, the administrative costs limit is 10 percent of the total award.
b. Single Audit Submission Deadline Extension Related to COVID-19 In OMB Memorandum M-20-17
, OMB offered an extension of Single Audit submission
deadlines for fiscal years ending June 30, 2020 to allow recipients and subrecipients a 248
9 responsible transition to normal operations. This flexibility was extended through December 31, 2020 by OMB Memorandum 20-26.
In OMB Memorandum M-21-20, Appendix 3, Item IX, OMB has offered an additional extension of Single Audit submission deadlines for fiscal years ending June 30, 2021.
Award recipients and subrecipients that have not yet filed their single audits with the Federal Audit Clearinghouse as of March 19, 2021 that have fiscal year-ends through June 30, 2021 may delay the completion and submission of the Single Audit reporting package, as required under 2 CFR § 200.501 (Audit Requirements), to six (6) months beyond the normal due date. This extension does not require individual recipients and subrecipients to seek approval for the extension by the cognizant or oversight agency for audit; however, recipients and subrecipients should maintain documentation of the reason for the delayed filing.
c. Budget Flexibility
Federal recipients are not permitted to make transfers that would cause any funds to be used for purposes other than those consistent with this Federal program. Any budget changes that impact the SOW and agreed upon outcomes or deliverables require a request for modification and approval from the Grant Officer.
As directed in 2 CFR 200.308(e), for programs where the Federal share is over the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT) (currently $250,000), the transfer of funds among direct cost categories or programs, functions, and activities is restricted such that if the cumulative amount of such transfers exceeds or is expected to exceed 10% of the total budget as last approved by the Federal awarding agency, the recipient must receive prior approval from the Grant Officer. Any changes within a specific cost category on the SF424(a) do not require a grant modification unless the change results in a cumulative transfer among direct cost categories exceeding 10% of total budget. It is recommended that the assigned FPO review any within-line changes to the grant award recepient’s budget prior to implementation to ensure they do not require a modification.
For programs where the Federal share of the project is below the SAT of $250,000, recipients are not required to obtain the Grant Officer’s approval when transferring funds among direct cost categories.
d. Consultants
For the purposes of this grant award, the ETA’s Grant Officer has determined that fees paid to a consultant who provides services under a program shall be limited to $750.00 a day (representing an eight-hour workday). Such costs must be reasonable, allocable and allowable to the program. Any fees paid in excess of this amount cannot be paid without prior approval from the Grant Officer.
2 CFR 2900.8 before it can be recognized and reported as match on the ETA-9130 report.
249
10 e. Travel
This award waives the prior approval requirement for domestic travel as contained in 2 CFR 200.475. For domestic travel to be an allowable cost, it must be necessary, reasonable, allocable and conform to the non-Federal entities written policies and procedures. All travel must also comply with Fly America Act (49 USC 40118), which states in part that any air transportation, regardless of price, must be performed by, or under a code-sharing arrangement with, a U.S. Flag air carrier if service provided by such carrier is available.
f. Travel – Foreign
Foreign travel is not allowable except with prior written approval from the Grant Officer through the process described in 2 CFR 200.407 and 2 CFR 2900.16. All travel, both domestic and Grant Officer approved foreign travel, must comply with the Fly America Act (49 USC 40118), which states in part that any air transportation, regardless of price, must be performed by, or under a code-sharing arrangement with, a U.S. Flag air carrier if service provided by such carrier is available.
g. Travel – Mileage Reimbursement Rates
Pursuant to 2 CFR 200.475(a), all award recipients must have policies and procedures in place related to travel costs; however, for reimbursement on a mileage basis, this Federal grant award cannot be charged more than the maximum allowable mileage reimbursement rates for Federal employees. Mileage rates must be checked annually at www.gsa.gov/mileage to ensure compliance.
h. WIOA Infrastructure
WIOA, Section 121(b)(1)(B) and 20 CFR 678.400 require the following programs to be One-Stop partners:
A. WIOA, Title I programs: Adult, Dislocated Worker, and Youth formula programs, Job Corps, YouthBuild, Native American programs, National Dislocated Worker Grants (DWG), and NFJP;
B. Wagner-Peyser Act Employment Service (ES) program authorized under the Wagner-Peyser Act (29 U.S.C. 49 et seq.), as amended by WIOA, Title III; C. SCSEP authorized under Title V of the Older Americans Act of 1965; D. Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) activities authorized under Chapter 2 of Title II of the Trade Act of 1974;
E. Unemployment Compensation (UC) programs;
F. Jobs for Veterans State Grants (JVSG) programs authorized under Chapter 41 of Title 38, U.S.C.; and
G. Reentry Employment Opportunities (REO) programs (formerly known as the Reintegration of Ex-Offenders Program (RExO) awarded prior to January 1, 2019 which were authorized under Section 212 of the Second Chance Act of 2007 (42 U.S.C. 17532).
With the exception of Native American programs established under WIOA, Section 166 all One-Stop partner programs including all programs that are funded under Title I of 250
11 WIOA are required to contribute to the infrastructure costs and certain additional costs of the One-Stop delivery system in proportion to their use and relative benefits received, per 20 CFR 678.700 and 678.760. While Native American programs are not required to contribute to infrastructure costs per WIOA Section 121(h)(2)(D)(iv), they are strongly encouraged to contribute as stated in TEGL No. 17-16. The sharing and allocation of infrastructure costs between One-Stop partners is governed by WIOA Section 121(h), WIOA’s implementing regulations, and the Federal Cost Principles contained in the Uniform Guidance at 2 CFR part 200 and DOL’s exceptions at 2 CFR part 2900. The Federal Cost Principles state that a partner’s contribution is an allowable, reasonable, necessary, and allocable cost to the program and is consistent with other legal requirements.
If not deemed a required one-stop partner, it is strongly recommended that the grant recipient partner with the local WIOA one-stop delivery system in its service area(s). The one-stop system can assist with referrals, labor market information, and many other services that will directly benefit the management and performance of your grant. The one-stop system also provides access to a wide range of publicly- and privately-funded education, employment, training, and supportive services while also providing high-quality customer service to job seekers, workers, and businesses.
12. Administrative Requirements
a. For-Profit and Foreign Entities
Recipients of Federal Awards from DOL are included in the definition of Non-Federal Entity (NFE) for purposes of compliance with the Uniform Guidance found at 2 CFR 200 and 2900. OMB approved an exception for DOL at 2 CFR 2900.2, which defines Non- Federal Entity as a state, local government, Indian tribe, institution of higher education (IHE), for-profit entity, foreign public entity, foreign organization or nonprofit organization that carries out a Federal award as a recipient or subrecipient.
b. SF-424, Application for Federal Assistance, and SF-424B, Assurances and Certifications
The signed SF-424, Application for Federal Assistance, has been included as an attachment to this grant award. The individual that signed the SF-424 on behalf of the applicant is considered the Authorized Representative of the applicant. As stated in block 21 of the SF-424 form, the signature of the Authorized Representative on the SF-424 certifies that the grant award recepient is in compliance with the Assurances and Certifications form SF-424B (available at
http://apply07.grants.gov/apply/forms/sample/SF424B-V1.1.pdf ). The grant award
receipent does not need to submit the SF-424B form separately. c. Audits
Organization-wide or program-specific audits must be performed in accordance with Subpart F, the Audit Requirements of the Uniform Guidance. DOL awards recipients that expend $750,000 or more in a year from any Federal awards must have an audit conducted for that year in accordance with the requirements contained in 2 CFR 200.501. 251
12 OMB’s approved exception at 2 CFR 2900.2 expands the definition of ‘non-Federal entity’ to include for-profit entities and foreign entities. As such, for-profit and foreign entities that are recipients or subrecipients of a DOL award must adhere to the Uniform Guidance at 2 CFR 200, including Subpart F. Those audits must be submitted directly to USDOL-OGM, Attention: Audit Resolution Team.
d. Revisions to the Uniform Guidance
The Office of Management and Budget issued revisions to 2 CFR parts 25, 170, 183, and 200 (the Uniform Guidance) on August 13, 2020. These revisions became effective November 12, 2020, except for the amendments to §§ 200.216 and 200.340, which were immediately effective on August 13, 2020. The grant award recipient must operate in compliance with these revised regulations. Please note that the section numbering in the Uniform Guidance has changed in some instances, and this Terms & Conditions document has been updated accordingly.
e. Changes in Micro-purchase and Simplified Acquisition Thresholds OMB’s memorandum M-18-18, issued on June 20, 2018, increased the threshold for micro-purchases under Federal financial assistance awards from $3,500 to $10,000 and the threshold for simplified acquisitions under Federal financial assistance awards from $100,000 to $250,000. These two threshold increases were effective for all of ETA’s grant recipients as of October 1, 2018. All ETA grant recipients should carefully review the above-referenced memorandum and make any necessary updates to their financial and administrative policies, procedures, and systems as a result of these threshold increases.
f. Closeout/Final Year Requirements
At the end of the grant period, the award recipient will be required to close the grant with the ETA. The grant recipient will be notified approximately 15 days prior to the end of the period of performance that the closeout process will begin when the period of performance ends. See https://www.dol.gov/agencies/eta/grants/management/closeout
for further information on the closeout process. The recipient’s responsibilities at closeout may be found at 2 CFR 200.344. During the closeout process, the grant recipient must be able to provide documentation for all direct and indirect costs that are incurred.
For instance, if an organization is claiming indirect costs, the required documentation is a NICRA or CAP issued by the grantee’s FCA. For those approved to utilize a de minimis rate for indirect costs, the grant agreement is sufficient documentation. Not having documentation for direct or indirect costs will result in costs being disallowed and subject to debt collection.
The only liquidation that can occur during closeout is the liquidation of accrued expenditures (NOT obligations) for goods and/or services received during the grant period (2 CFR 2900.15).
252
13 g. Open Licensing
As required at 2 CFR 2900.13, any intellectual property developed under a discretionary Federal award process must be licensed under an open license, which allows subsequent users to copy, distribute, transmit and adapt the copyrighted work and attribute the work in the manner specified by the recipient.
h. Equipment
The grant award recipient(s) must receive prior approval from the Grant Officer to purchase any equipment as defined in the Uniform Guidance at 2 CFR 200.1. Prior approval is required only when the acquisition cost is $5,000 or more regardless of the non-Federal entity’s capitalization threshold. Equipment purchases must be made in accordance with 2 CFR 200.313 or 2 CFR 200.439.
Being awarded this grant does not automatically mean that the equipment specified in the approved budget or SOW is approved by the Grant Officer. If not specified above, the recipient must submit a detailed list describing the purchase to the FPO for review within 90 days of the NOA date. The recepients are strongly encouraged to submit requests for equipment purchase as early as possible in the grant’s period of performance with as many planned pieces of equipment as possible.
Recipients may not purchase equipment during the last year of the period of performance or the last year of full program service delivery (not follow up activities), whichever comes first. If any approved acquisition has not occurred prior to the last funded year of performance, approval for that item is rescinded.
i. Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (FFATA)
1. Reporting of first-tier subawards.
I. Applicability. Unless the grant award recepient is exempt as provided in paragraph [4.] of this award term, the grantee must report each action that equals of exceeds $30,000 in Federal funds for a subaward to an non-Federal entity or Federal agency (see definitions in paragraph [5.] of this award term).
II. Where and when to report.
I. The Federal entity or Federal agency must report each obligating action described in paragraph [1.i.] of this award term to https://www.fsrs.gov .
II. For subaward information, the recipient must report no later than the end of the month following the month in which the obligation was made. (For example, if the obligation was made on November 7, 2010, the obligation must be reported by no later than December 31, 2010.) III. What to report. The grant award recipient must report the information about each obligating action that the submission instructions posted at https://www.fsrs.gov
specify.
2. Reporting total compensation of recipient executives for non-Federal entities.
I. Applicability and what to report. The grant award recipient must report total compensation for each of their five most highly compensated executives for the preceding completed fiscal year, if—
253
14 I. the total Federal funding authorized to date under this Federal award is equals or exceeds $30,000 as defined in 2 CFR 170.320;
II. in the preceding fiscal year, the grantee received— (A) 80% or more of the annual gross revenues from Federal procurement contracts (and subcontracts) and Federal financial assistance subject to the Transparency Act, as defined at 2 CFR 170.320 (and subawards); and

18 o. Recipient Integrity and Performance Matters [for awards exceeding $500,000]
1. If the total value of the currently active grants, cooperative agreements, and procurement contracts from all Federal awarding agencies exceeds $10,000,000 for any period of time during the period of performance of this Federal award, then the grant award recipient during that period of time must maintain the currency of information reported to the System for Award Management (SAM) that is made available in the designated integrity and performance system (currently the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS)) about civil, criminal, or administrative proceedings described in Paragraph 2 of this award term and condition. This is a statutory requirement under Section 872 of Public Law 110- 417, as amended (41 U.S.C. 2313). As required by Section 3010 of Public Law 111- 212, all information posted in the designated integrity and performance system on or after April 15, 2011, except past performance reviews required for Federal procurement contracts, will be publicly available.
2. Proceedings about which the grant recipient must report. Submit the information required about each proceeding that:

(A) It could have led to an outcome described in Paragraph 2.c.I, II, or III of this award term;
(B) It had a different disposition arrived at by consent or compromise with an acknowledgment of fault on the grantee’s part; and
(C) The requirement in this award term to disclose information about the proceeding does not conflict with applicable laws and regulations.
3. Reporting procedures. Enter in SAM, Entity Management area (formerly CCR), or any successor system, the FAPIIS information that SAM requires about each proceeding described in Paragraph 2. of this award term. The grant award recipient does not need to submit the information a second time under assistance awards that were received if the recipient already provided the information through SAM (formerly CCR) because the recipient was required to do so under Federal procurement contracts that the recipient was awarded.
258
19 4. Reporting frequency. During any period of time when the grant award recipient is a subject to the requirement in paragraph 1. of this award term, the grantee must report FAPIIS information through SAM no less frequently than semiannually following the initial report of any proceedings for the most recent 5-year period, either to report new information about any proceeding(s) that the grantee has not reported previously or affirm that there is no new information to report.
5. Definitions. For purposes of this award term:

I. Only the Federal share of the funding under any award with a recipient cost share or match; and
II. The value of all options, even if not yet exercised.
p. Reports
All ETA grant award recipients are required to submit quarterly financial and narrative progress reports for each grant award.
a. Quarterly Financial Reports. All ETA grant award recipients are required to report quarterly financial data on the ETA-9130 Form. ETA-9130 reports are due no later than 45 calendar days after the end of each specified reporting quarter.
Reporting quarter end dates are March 31, June 30, September 30, and December
31. A final financial report must be submitted no later than 45 calendar days after the quarter ends and the closeout 9130 report must be submitted no later than 90 calendar days after the grant period of performance ends. A closeout report will be submitted during the closeout process. For additional guidance on ETA’s financial reporting, reference TEGL 20-19 and
https://www.doleta.gov/grants/pdf/ETA-
9130_Financial_Reporting_Resources.pdf
The instructions for accessing both the online financial reporting system and the HHS PMS can be found in the transmittal memo accompanying this NOA.
b. Quarterly Performance Reports and Quarterly Narrative Reports.
Recipients must submit Quarterly Performance and Quarterly Narrative Reports in accordance with TEGL 14-18, Attachment 6, which can be found at:
https://wdr.doleta.gov/directives/attach/TEGL/TEGL_14-18_Attachment- 259
20 6_Acc.pdf.
• Workforce Integrated Performance System (WIPS) is the vehicle through which DWG grantees must submit individual records based on the Participant Individual Record Layout (PIRL). The Web-based reporting system is accessed using the following link:
https://dol.appiancloud.com/suite/
.
• Grantees are required to use the Joint Quarterly Narrative Report Template (ETA-9179) for quarterly performance narrative reporting. Grantees submit the Quarterly Narrative Report using the WIPS reporting system. • Information on DWGs awarded to states must be included in that state’s WIOA Annual Statewide Performance Report Narrative in accordance with the guidance.
c. Project Implementation Plan.
Recipients must adhere to the Project Implementation Plan submission requirements of their respective regional office, in accordance with 20 CFR 687.150. Contact the assigned Federal Project Officer for further details.
q. Requirements for Conference and Conference Space
Conferences sponsored in whole or in part by the grant award recipient are allowable if the conference is necessary and reasonable for the successful performance of the Federal Award. The grant award recipients are urged to use discretion and good judgment to ensure that all conference costs charged to the grant are appropriate and allowable. For more information on the requirements and the allowability of costs associated with conferences, refer to 2 CFR 200.432. Recipients will be held accountable to the requirements in 2 CFR 200.432. Therefore, costs that do not comply with 2 CFR 200.432 will be questioned and may be disallowed.
r. Subawards
A subaward means an award provided by a Pass-Through Entity (PTE) to a subrecipient for the subrecipient to carry out part of a Federal award received by the PTE. It does not include payments to a contractor or payments to an individual that is a beneficiary of a Federal program. A subaward may be provided through any form of legal agreement, including an agreement that the PTE considers a contract.
The provisions of the Terms and Conditions of this award will be applied to any subrecipient under this award. The recipient is responsible for monitoring the subrecipient, ensuring that the Terms and Conditions are in all subaward packages and that the subrecipient complies with all applicable regulations and the Terms and Conditions of this award (2 CFR 200.101(b)).
s. Supportive Services & Participant Support Costs
When supportive services are expressly authorized by a program statute, regulation, or FOA, this award waives the prior approval requirement for participant support costs as described in 2 CFR 200.456. Costs must still meet the basic considerations at 2 CFR 260
21 200.402 – 200.411. Questions regarding supportive services and participant support costs should be directed to the FPO who is assigned to the grant.
t. System for Award Management (SAM)
SAM is the official federal system that collects, validates, stores, and disseminates business information about the federal government's trading partners in support of contract awards, grants, and electronic payment processes. A SAM registration is required for an entity to be able to apply for federal grants, to request modifications to existing grants, and to enable them to closeout expiring grants. See Training and Employment Notice 18-17 for additional guidance.
Unless the grant award recipient is exempt from this requirement under 2 CFR 25.110, the grantee must maintain current its information in the SAM. This includes information on the recipient’s immediate and highest level owner and subsidiaries, as well as on all of the recipient’s predecessors that have been awarded a Federal contract or Federal financial assistance within the last three years, if applicable, until the grantee submits the final financial report required under this Federal award or receive the final payment, whichever is later. This requires that the grantee review and update the information at least annually after the initial registration, and more frequently if required by changes in its information or another Federal award term.
1. Unique Entity Identifier Requirements
If the grant award recipient is authorized to make subawards under this award, then the grantee:
i. Must notify potential subrecipients that no entity (see definitions below) may receive a subaward from the grant award recipient until the entity has provided its unique entity identifier to the grantee.
ii. May not make a subaward to an entity unless the entity has provided its Unique Entity Identifier to the grantee. Subrecipients are not required to obtain an active SAM registration, but must obtain a Unique Entity Identifier.
NOTE: At some point, the DUNS Number will be replaced by a new, non-proprietary identifier requested in and assigned by SAM.gov. This new identifier is being called the Unique Entity Identifier (UEI), or the Entity ID. Users should continue using the DUNS Number in UEI fields until further notice. To learn more about SAM’s rollout of the UEI, please visit gsa.gov/entityid
.
2. Definitions
For purposes of this term:
i. SAM is the Federal repository where the grant award recipients must provide information required for the conduct of business as recipients. Additional information about registration procedures may be found at the SAM website (http://www.sam.gov).
ii. Unique entity identifier means the identifier assigned by SAM to uniquely identify business entities.
iii. Entity, as it is used in this grant award term, includes all of the following, as defined at 2 CFR Part 25, Appendix A:
261
22 a. A non-Federal entity as defined at 2 CFR 200.1 (A State, local government, Indian Tribe, Institute of Higher Education (IHE), or nonprofit organization that carries out a Federal award as a recipient or subrecipient);
b. A foreign organization;
c. A foreign public entity;
d. A domestic for-profit organization; and
e. A Federal agency.
iv. Subaward means:
An award provided by a pass-through entity to a subrecipient for the subrecipient to carry out part of a Federal award received by the pass- through entity. It does not include payments to a contractor or payments to an individual that is a beneficiary of a Federal program. A subaward may be provided through any form of legal agreement, including an agreement that the pass-through entity considers a contract.
v. Subrecipient means:
An entity, usually but not limited to non-Federal entities, that receives a subaward from a pass-through entity to carry out part of a Federal award; but does not include an individual that is a beneficiary of such award. A subrecipient may also be a recipient of other Federal awards directly from a Federal awarding agency.
3. Existing SAM Registrants
ETA advises grant recipients registered in SAM to review their registration information, particularly their financial information and points of contact. Assistance is available by contacting the Federal Service Desk at www.fsd.gov
. Grant recipients should contact
ETA at [email protected] if they find that payments have been paid to a bank account other than their registered bank account.
ETA further encourages grant recipients to review the expiration date of their SAM registration and begin the renewal process well in advance, to ensure that their registration remains valid. If the grant recipient has not logged in and updated its entity registration record within at least the past 365 days, its record will expire and go into inactive status. Timely renewal will ensure that the grant recipient can continue to request and receive modifications to their existing grants, as well as apply for new funding opportunities. Further, the DUNS and EIN numbers must remain active until the grant award closeout process is fully completed.
4. Validation
ETA routinely checks the validity of a grant recipient’s SAM registration and verifies that the recipient isn’t included on the excluded parties list before making a grant award, or approving a modification to an existing award. Failure to have an active SAM registration can delay grant recipients from receiving their initial award or requested modifications to their existing awards.
262
23 u. Vendor/Contractor
The term “contractor,” sometimes referred to as a vendor, is a dealer, distributor, merchant or other seller providing goods or services that are required to implement a Federal program (see 2 CFR 200.1). These goods or services may be for an organization's own use or for the use of the beneficiaries of the Federal program. Additional guidance on distinguishing between a subrecipient and a contractor (vendor) is provided in 2 CFR 200.331. When procuring contractors for goods and services, DOL/ETA recipients and subrecipients, must follow the procurement requirements found at 2 CFR 200.319, except states, pursuant to 2 CFR 200.317,which calls for free and open competition. v. Whistleblower Protection
This grant award and employees working on this grant award are subject to the whistleblower rights and remedies established at 41 U.S.C. 4712. The grant award recipient shall inform its employees in writing, in the predominant language of the workforce, of employee whistleblower rights and protections under 41 U.S.C. 4712, as described in section 3.908 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (48 CFR 3.908; note that for the purpose of this term and condition, use of the term "contract," "contractor," "subcontract," or "subcontractor" in section 3.908 should be read as "grant," "grantee," "subgrant," or "subgrantee").

Pursuant to P.L. 116-260, Division H, Title I, Section 108, the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (FLSA) will apply as if the following language was added to Section 7 (the Maximum Hours Worked Section). This language specifically relates to occurrences of a major disaster (as declared or designated by the state or federal government) and are applied for a period of two years afterwards. The language is as follows:
“(s)(1) The provisions of this section [maximum hours worked] shall not apply for a period of 2 years after the occurrence of a major disaster to any employee— 265
26 (A) employed to adjust or evaluate claims resulting from or relating to such major disaster, by an employer not engaged, directly or through an affiliate, in underwriting, selling, or marketing property, casualty, or liability insurance policies or contracts;
(B) who receives from such employer on average weekly compensation of not less than $591.00 per week or any minimum weekly amount established by the Secretary, whichever is greater, for the number of weeks such employee is engaged in any of the activities described in subparagraph (C); and (C) whose duties include any of the following:
(i) interviewing insured individuals, individuals who suffered injuries or other damages or losses arising from or relating to a disaster, witnesses, or physicians; (ii) inspecting property damage or reviewing factual information to prepare damage estimates;

c. Health Benefits Coverage for Contraceptives
Federal funds may not be used to enter into or renew a contract which includes a provision for prescription drug coverage unless the contract also includes a provision for contraceptive coverage. This requirement does not apply to contracts with 1) the religious plans Personal Care’s HMO and OSF HealthPlans, Inc. and 2) any existing or future plan if the carrier for the plan objects to such coverage on the basis of religious beliefs.

The Jobs for Veterans Act (Public Law 107-288) requires grant award recipients to provide priority service to veterans and spouses of certain veterans for the receipt of employment, training, and placement services in any job training program directly funded, in whole or in part, by the DOL. The regulations implementing this priority of service can be found at 20 CFR Part 1010. In circumstances where a grant award recipient must choose between two qualified candidates for a service, one of whom is a veteran or eligible spouse, the veterans priority of service provisions require that the grant award recipient give the veteran or eligible spouse priority of service by first providing him or her that service. To obtain priority of service, a veteran or spouse must meet the program’s eligibility requirements. Recipients must comply with the DOL guidance on veterans’ priority. ETA’s TEGL No. 10-09 (issued November 10, 2009) provides guidance on implementing priority of service for veterans and eligible spouses in all qualified job training programs funded in whole or in part by DOL. TEGL No. 10-09 is available at http://wdr.doleta.gov/directives/corr_doc.cfm?DOCN=2816 .
h. Promoting Equitable Delivery of Government Benefits and Equal Opportunity The Department of Labor (Labor) seeks to affirmatively advance equity, civil rights and equal opportunity in the policies, programs and services it provides. Therefore, consistent with Executive Order 13985, Advancing Racial Equity and Support for Underserved Communities Through the Federal Government, grant recipients must execute the terms and conditions of their grant in a manner that advances equity for all, including people of color and others who have been historically underserved, marginalized, and adversely affected by persistent poverty and inequality. This extends to all grant activities including, but not limited to, service delivery, selection of subrecipients and contractors, and procurement of goods and services. Government programs are designed to serve all eligible individuals, and Labor’s grantees should make services the goods and services they provide pursuant to their grants widely available with the goals of effectively serving a diverse population of eligible individuals; fairly, justly, and impartially administering the grant evaluation and award processes. Grantees are encouraged to engage in contracting and subcontracting for goods and services related to performing the terms and conditions of their grants in such a way to achieve equity.
The term “equity” means the consistent and systematic fair, just, and impartial treatment of all individuals, including individuals who belong to underserved communities that have been denied such treatment, such as Black, Latino, and Indigenous and Native American persons, Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders and other persons of color; 275
34 members of religious minorities; lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ+) persons; persons with disabilities; persons who live in rural areas; and persons otherwise adversely affected by persistent poverty or inequality.
The term “underserved communities” refers to populations sharing a particular characteristic, as well as geographic communities, that have been systematically denied a full opportunity to participate in aspects of economic, social, and civic life, as exemplified by the list in the preceding definition of “equity.” i. Harassment Prohibited
The grant recipient and any subrecipients are prohibited from engaging in harassment of an individual based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, or political affiliation or belief, or, for beneficiaries, applicants, and participants only, based on citizenship status or participation in any WIOA Title I-financially assisted program or activity. Harassing conduct of this type is a violation of the nondiscrimination provisions of WIOA and of 29 CFR Part 38.
a) Unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, or offensive remarks about a person's race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, political affiliation or belief, or citizenship or participation, and other unwelcome verbal or physical conduct based on one or more of these protected categories constitutes unlawful harassment on that basi(e)s when:
(1) Submission to such conduct is made either explicitly or implicitly a term or condition of accessing the aid, benefit, service, or training of, or employment in the administration of or in connection with, any WIOA Title I-financially assisted program or activity;
(2) Submission to, or rejection of, such conduct by an individual is used as the basis for limiting that individual's access to any aid, benefit, service, training, or employment from, or employment in the administration of or in connection with, any WIOA Title I-financially assisted program or activity; or (3) Such conduct has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual's participation in a WIOA Title I-financially assisted program or activity creating an intimidating, hostile or offensive program environment. b) Harassment because of sex includes harassment based on gender identity or sexual orientation; harassment based on failure to comport with sex stereotypes; and harassment based on pregnancy, childbirth, and related medical conditions. Sex-based harassment may include harassment that is not sexual in nature but that is because of sex or where one sex is targeted for the harassment.
276
