EXHIBIT F
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). 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.

5. Monitoring and Oversight
Per 2 C.F.R. § 200.337, FEMA, through its authorized representatives, has the right, at all reasonable times, to make site visits or conduct desk reviews to review project accomplishments and management control systems to review award progress and to provide any required technical assistance. During site visits or

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

Page 77 of 80 ends

EXHIBIT F
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 terms 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 form 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 terms 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. Program Evaluation
Recipients and subrecipients are encouraged to incorporate program evaluation activities from the outset of their program design and implementation to meaningfully document and measure their progress towards meeting an agency priority goal(s). Title I of the Foundations for Evidence-Based Policymaking Act of 2018 (Evidence Act), Pub. L. No. 115-435 (2019) urges federal awarding agencies and federal assistance recipients and subrecipients to use program evaluation as a critical tool to learn, to improve equitable delivery, and to elevate program service and delivery across the program lifecycle. Evaluation means “an assessment using systematic data collection and analysis of one or more programs, policies, and organizations intended to assess their effectiveness and efficiency.” Evidence Act § 101 (codified at 5 U.S.C. § 311). Evaluation costs are allowable costs (either as direct or indirect), unless prohibited by statute or regulation.

3. Period of Performance Extensions
Extensions to the period of performance (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.

Section 1‒ Overview | 2022
Federal Program
Announcement
In May 2022, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security
(DHS)/Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) issued the Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP), Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) and the FEMA Preparedness Grants Manual.

Subrecipients must follow the programmatic requirements in the NOFO, FEMA Preparedness Grants Manual, and the applicable provisions of the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards located in Title 2, Code of Federal Regulations (C.F.R.), Part 200.

Information
Bulletins
DHS issues Information Bulletins (IBs) to provide updates, clarification, and new requirements throughout the life of the grant.

Grant
Management
Memoranda
Cal OES issues Grant Management Memoranda (GMMs) which
provide additional information and requirements regarding HSGP funds.

Purpose of the
California
Supplement
The FY 2022 HSGP California Supplement to the NOFO (State Supplement) is intended to complement, rather than replace, the NOFO and the FEMA Preparedness Grants Manual. Applicants are highly encouraged to thoroughly read the NOFO and the Preparedness Grants Manual before referring to the State Supplement. The State Supplement will emphasize differences between the FY 2021 and FY 2022 HSGP and highlight additional California policies and requirements applicable to FY 2022 HSGP.

Eligible
Subrecipients
Eligible Applicants, referred to as Subrecipients, include Counties/Operational Areas (OAs), Urban Areas (UAs), State Agencies (SAs), Departments, Commissions, and Boards who have or can obtain appropriate state Department of Finance budget authority for awarded funds, and federally recognized tribes located in California.

Tribal Allocations The NOFO strongly encourages Cal OES to provide HSGP funds directly to tribes in California. To implement this requirement, a special Request for Proposal will be issued to California’s federally recognized tribes. All Subrecipients are encouraged to
coordinate with tribal governments to ensure that tribal needs are considered in their grant applications.

EXHIBIT F.1
Subrecipient
Allocations
FY 2022 HSGP Subrecipient final allocations are provided in Attachment A and reflect reductions to Subrecipients who did not submit minimum thresholds for National Priority Areas, including Subrecipients opting out of the award altogether, and increases to Subrecipients that are helping meet statewide minimum level National Priority Area requirements.

Supplanting Grant funds must be used to supplement existing funds, not replace (supplant) funds that have been appropriated for the same purpose. Subrecipients may be required to provide
supporting documentation that certifies a reduction in nonfederal resources that occurred for reasons other than the receipt or expected receipt of federal funds. Supplanting will result in the disallowance of the activity associated with this improper use of federal grant funds.

Public/Private
Organizations
Subrecipients may contract with other public or private organizations to perform eligible activities on approved HSGP projects.

Debarred/
Suspended
Parties
Subrecipients must not make or permit any award (subaward or contract) at any tier, to any party, that is debarred, suspended, or otherwise excluded from, or ineligible for, participation in federal assistance programs.

Subrecipients must obtain documentation of eligibility before making any subaward or contract using HSGP funds and must be prepared to present supporting documentation to
monitors/auditors.

Before entering into a Grant Subaward, the Subrecipient must notify Cal OES if it knows if any of the principals under the subaward fall under one or more of the four criteria listed at 2 C.F.R. § 180.335. The rule also applies to Subrecipients who pass through funding to other local entities.

If at any time after accepting a subaward, Subrecipients learn that any of its principals fall under one or more of the criteria listed at 2 C.F.R. § 180.335, immediate written notice must be provided to Cal OES and all grant activities halted until further instructions are received from Cal OES. The rule also applies to subawards passed through by Subrecipients to local entities.

EXHIBIT F.1
Key Changes to
the FY 2022
HSGP
National Priority Areas: There are six National Priority Areas (NPAs) for FY 2022 compared to five in FY2021: one NPA was removed and two were added. SHSP and UASI applicants must include one Investment Justification (IJ) for each NPA that has a minimum spend requirement, where applicable. For the NPAs with no minimum spend requirement, the Department of Homeland
Security strongly encourages recipients to make investments in those areas as they are of critical national concern. For those NPAs that have an associated minimum spend, all projects related to meeting the minimum spend for those NPAs must be included in the same IJ.

The six NPAs, along with the relevant minimum spend
requirement, are:
• Enhancing information and intelligence sharing and
cooperation with federal agencies, including the
Department of Homeland Security – 3% minimum;
• Enhancing the protection of soft targets/crowded places – 3% minimum;
• Enhancing cybersecurity – no minimum requirement;
• NEW: Enhancing community preparedness and resilience – 3% minimum;
• Combating domestic violent extremism – 3% minimum;
• NEW: Enhancing election security – no minimum
requirement.

Unique Entity Identifier: Effective April 4, 2022, the Federal Government transitioned from using the Data Universal
Numbering System or DUNS number, to a new, non-proprietary identifier known as a Unique Entity Identifier or UEI.

Law Enforcement Terrorism Prevention Activities: Increased from 25% to 30% of the subaward.

Investment Justifications: Investments are updated for FY 2022.

Build America, Buy America Act (BABAA): The BABAA requires all federal agencies, including FEMA, to ensure by May 14, 2022, that no federal financial assistance for “infrastructure” projects is provided “unless all of the iron, steel, manufactured products, and construction materials used in the project are produced in the United States.”
For FY22 Awards, the BABAA requirement is waived.

EXHIBIT F.1
Section 2‒ Federal Changes and Initiatives | 2022
FY 2022 National
Priorities
DHS/FEMA annually publishes the National Preparedness Report (NPR) to report national progress in building, sustaining, and delivering the core capabilities outlined in the goal of a secure and resilient nation. This analysis provides a national perspective on critical preparedness trends for whole community partners to use to inform program priorities, allocate resources, and communicate with stakeholders about issues of concern.

HSGP Subrecipients are required to prioritize grant funding to demonstrate how investments support closing capability gaps or sustaining capabilities identified in the Threat Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (THIRA)/Stakeholder
Preparedness Review (SPR) process.

DHS/FEMA continually assess changes to the threat landscape to further the National Preparedness Goal (NPG) of a secure and resilient nation. The following are national priority areas for FY 2022, including the corresponding percentage of funds required in each area:
• Enhancing information and intelligence sharing and
cooperation with federal agencies, including DHS – 3%;
• Enhancing the protection of soft targets/crowded places - 3%; • Enhancing cybersecurity – no minimum;
• Enhancing community preparedness and resilience – 3%
• Combating domestic violent extremism through enhanced intelligence collection & analysis, training, and community resilience – 3%; and
• Enhancing election security – no minimum.

The NPA specifically addressing emerging threats has been removed, but activities in this category remain allowable expenses under other investment areas. Further, applicants must spend a minimum of 30% of their SHSP and UASI awards across the six NPAs but have new flexibility on how that funding is allocated. Although 12% is required in minimum spending across four NPAs, as noted above, the remaining 18% can be allocated across any of the six NPAs. Election security and Enhancing Cybersecurity do not require a minimum allocation.

National Priority projects will be reviewed for effectiveness by DHS/FEMA and must be deemed effective prior to the obligation or expenditure of funds.

EXHIBIT F.1
FY 2022 National
Priorities (cont.)
Projects requiring additional information for DHS/FEMA to determine effectiveness of the project, or projects deemed ineffective, will have a hold placed on their subaward pending submission of requested information and DHS/FEMA approval.

Once a project is approved by DHS/FEMA, modifications to the project have special restrictions regarding modifications as indicated below:

Modifications which do not change the project scope and do not decrease the overall project budget can be processed via regular modification request.

Modifications which change the project scope or decrease the overall project budget will require DHS/FEMA approval and must be requested on the National Priority Project Modification Form.

Effectiveness will be evaluated by DHS/FEMA, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, DHS Office of Intelligence and Analysis, DHS Center for Prevention Programs and Partnerships, and/or other DHS components, as appropriate. FEMA will
determine whether the proposed approach is clear, logical, and reasonable to address the priority areas of interest and contribute to a culture of national preparedness, based on the following four factors:
• Investment Strategy (40%): Projects will be evaluated based on the quality and extent to which the strategy effectively demonstrates supporting 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 (20%): Projects will be evaluated based on the extent to which a budget plan for each investment demonstrates how grant expenditures maximize cost effectiveness.

EXHIBIT F.1
FY 2022 National
Priorities (cont.)
• Impact/Outcomes (40%): Projects will be evaluated on how this investment helps the jurisdiction close capability gaps identified in its Stakeholder Preparedness Review and
addresses national priorities outlined in the FY 2022 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 improvements are
measured and/or evaluated.
• Past Performance (additional consideration): Projects will be evaluated based on the Subrecipient’s demonstrated
capability to execute the proposed investments. Under this factor, FEMA will consider the information provided by the Subrecipient and may also consider relevant information from other sources.

A detailed description of allowable investments for each national priority is included in the FY 2022 HSGP NOFO (Section A).

National
Campaigns and
Programs
Whole Community Preparedness – Subrecipients should engage with the whole community to advance individual and community preparedness and to work as a nation to build and sustain resilience. In doing so, Subrecipients are encouraged to consider the needs of individuals with access and functional needs and limited English proficiency in the activities and projects funded by the grant.

Subrecipients should utilize established best practices for whole community inclusion and engage with stakeholders to advance individual and jurisdictional preparedness and resilience.

Subrecipients are encouraged to consider the necessities of all Californians in the activities and projects funded by the grant, including children, seniors, individuals with disabilities or access and functional needs, individuals with diverse culture and language use, individuals with lower economic capacity, and other underserved populations.

EXHIBIT F.1
National
Campaigns and
Programs (cont.)
Active Shooter Preparedness – DHS developed a comprehensive Active Shooter Preparedness website, which strives to enhance national preparedness through a whole-community approach by providing the necessary products, tools, and resources to help all stakeholders prepare for and respond to an active shooter incident. Subrecipients are encouraged to review the referenced active shooter resources and evaluate their preparedness needs.

Soft Targets and Crowded Places – States, territories, UAs, and public and private sector partners are encouraged to identify security gaps and build capabilities that address security needs and challenges related to protecting locations or environments that are easily accessible to large numbers of people on a predictable or semi-predictable basis that have limited security or protective measures in place, including town centers, shopping malls, open-air venues, outside hard targets/venue perimeters, and other places of meeting and gathering . For more
information, please see DHS’s Hometown Security Program.

Community Lifelines – FEMA created Community Lifelines to reframe incident information and impacts using plain language and unity of effort to enable the integration of preparedness efforts, existing plans, and identifies unmet needs to better anticipate response requirements. Additional information may be found at the Community Lifelines Implementation Toolkit website.

Strategic Framework for Countering Terrorism and Targeted Violence – DHS adopted the DHS Strategic Framework for
Countering Terrorism and Targeted Violence which explains how the department will use the tools and expertise that have protected and strengthened the country from foreign terrorist organizations to address the evolving challenges of today.

Countering Violent Extremism (CVE) Training - Foreign terrorist groups and individual terrorist thought leaders recruit or inspire Westerners to carry out attacks against western and U.S. targets, including individuals living in communities with the U.S. via, but not limited to, print, video, and social media, as well as through personal interaction. But we also know that violent extremism is not a phenomenon restricted solely to one community and that any effort to counter violent extremism must be applicable to all ideologically motivated violence. Efforts to provide information and training regarding CVE should emphasize the strength of local communities’ approach.

EXHIBIT F.1
National
Cybersecurity
Review
The National Cybersecurity Review (NCSR) is a required
assessment for all Subrecipients of State Homeland Security Program (SHSP) and Urban Areas Security Initiative (UASI) funding to be completed between October and December 2022.

The NCSR is a no-cost, anonymous, and annual self-assessment designed to measure gaps and capabilities of state, local, tribal, territorial, nonprofit, and private sector agencies’ cybersecurity programs.

Additionally, FEMA recognizes that some subawards will not be issued until after the NCSR has closed. In these cases, Subrecipients will be required to complete the first available NCSR offered after the subaward has been issued by Cal OES.

The Chief Information Officer (CIO), Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), or equivalent should complete the NCSR. If there is no CIO or CISO, the most senior cybersecurity professional should complete the assessment. Additional information may be found in IB 439 and 429a.

NIMS
Implementation
Prior to the allocation of any federal preparedness awards, Subrecipients must ensure and maintain the adoption and implementation of the National Incident Management System (NIMS).

Law
Enforcement
Terrorism
Prevention
Activities
A minimum of 30% of the total subaward amount must be
dedicated to Law Enforcement Terrorism Prevention Activities (LETPA). Activities outlined in the National Prevention Framework and National Protection Framework are eligible for use of LETPAfocused funds. Additionally, investments that support LETPA can also support an NPA. All other terrorism prevention activities proposed for funding under LETPA must be formally pre-approved by FEMA. Refer to IB 473 for additional information.

Management
and
Administration
The Management and Administration (M&A) allowance for
Subrecipients is set at a maximum of 5% for FY 2022 HSGP.

Indirect Costs Indirect costs are allowable under the FY 2022 HSGP Grant Award. Subrecipients who claim indirect costs may do so, provided they use one of the following two methods:

EXHIBIT F.1
Indirect Costs
(cont.)

1. Subrecipients with an indirect cost rate approved by their cognizant federal agency may claim indirect costs based on the established rate. Indirect costs claimed must be
calculated using the base approved in the indirect cost negotiation agreement. A copy of the approved negotiation agreement is required at the time of application.

2. Subrecipients who have never received a negotiated indirect cost rate and receive less than $35 million in direct federal funding per year may claim the 10% de minimis indirect cost rate based on Modified Total Direct Costs (MTDC) as defined in 2 C.F.R. § 200.1 and Subpart E.

Indirect costs are in addition to the M&A allowance and must be included in the Grant Award application as a “Project” and reflected in the Financial Management Forms Workbook (FMFW) on the Indirect cost category ledger if being claimed under the award.

Indirect costs must be based on the claimed direct project costs, excluding equipment expenditures and other distorting items. Up to $25,000 of each subaward may be included as a direct project cost when calculating indirect costs based on MTDC.

Indirect costs must be claimed no more than once annually, and only at the end of the Subrecipient’s fiscal year. An exception to this rule applies if there is a mid-year change to the approved indirect cost rate; in this case, costs incurred to date must be claimed. At that time, a Grant Subaward Modification reflecting the rate change must also be submitted to Cal OES, along with a copy of the new indirect cost rate agreement.

Organization
Costs - Overtime
Operational overtime costs are allowable for increased security measures at critical infrastructure sites if associated with detecting, deterring, disrupting, and preventing acts of terrorism and other catastrophic events.

Pursuant to page A-4 of the Preparedness Grants Manual, all operational overtime requests must clearly explain how the request meets the criteria of one or more of the categories listed in Table 2: Authorized Operational Overtime Categories.

Requests must address the threat environment as it relates to the event or activity requiring operational overtime support and explains how the overtime activity is responsive to the threat.

EXHIBIT F.1
Organization
Costs – Overtime
(cont.)
Post-event operational overtime requests will only be considered on a case-by-case basis, where it is demonstrated exigent circumstances prevented submission of a request in advance of the event or activity. Requests for overtime costs must be submitted to Cal OES via the Allowability Request Form at the time of application, if the activity will occur within one year of the final application submission. All subsequent requests must be submitted at least 60 days in advance of the activity. All operational overtime costs must be formally pre-approved in writing by DHS/FEMA.

Personnel Cap Pursuant to 6 U.S.C. § 609(b), SHSP and UASI funds may be used for personnel costs, totaling up to 50 percent of each fund source. A Subrecipient may request this requirement be waived by DHS/FEMA, via Cal OES. Requests for personnel cap waivers must be submitted separately for each fund source in writing to the Program Representative on official letterhead, with the following information:
• Documentation explaining why the cap should be waived; • Conditions under which the request is being submitted; and • A budget and method of calculation of personnel costs both in percentages of the Grant Award and in total dollar amount (waivers must be calculated separately for SHSP and UASI, outlining salary, fringe benefits, and any M&A costs).

Subrecipient requests to exceed the personnel cap must be received by Cal OES at the time of application. Subaward modifications impacting the personnel cap will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis and may require the submittal of the abovementioned information.

Please see IB 421b for more information on the waiver process.

Equipment
Typing/
Identification
and Use
Allowable HSGP equipment is listed on the FEMA Authorized Equipment List (AEL) website.

Subrecipients that allocate HSGP funds towards equipment are required to type and identify the capability associated with that equipment. The FEMA Resource Typing Library Tool (RTLT) can be used to help determine the type and capability.

EXHIBIT F.1
Equipment
Typing/
Identification and
Use (cont.)

Section 6‒ Post Award Requirements | 2022
Payment
Request Process
To request an advance or cash reimbursement of HSGP funds, Subrecipients must first complete a payment request using the Cal OES FMFW, returning it to the appropriate Program
Representative. Subrecipients who fail to follow the workbook instructions may experience delays in processing the payment request.

Payments can only be made if the Subrecipient has an approved application.

Advances and
Interest Earned
on Advances
An Advance payment is a payment that is requested before Subrecipients have disbursed the funds for program purposes.

Subrecipients may be paid an advance, provided they maintain a willingness and ability to maintain procedures to minimize the time elapsing between the receipt of funds and their
disbursement. The timing and amount of advance payments must be as close as administratively feasible to the actual disbursements by the Subrecipient for project costs.

Federal rules require advances to be deposited in interestbearing accounts. Interest earned amounts up to $500 per year may be retained by Subrecipients for administrative expenses; any additional interest earned on federal advance payments must be returned annually to Cal OES.

Semi-Annual
Drawdown
Requirements
All Subrecipients must report expenditures and request funds at least semi-annually throughout the period of performance. Semiannual drawdowns should occur by March and October of each calendar year following final approval of the subaward
application, except for the final cash request, which must be submitted within 20 calendar days after the end of the period of performance.

Modifications Post-award budget and scope modifications must be requested using the Cal OES HSGP FMFW v1.22, signed by the Subrecipient’s AA, and submitted to the Program Representative.

The Subrecipient may implement grant modification activities, and incur associated expenses, only after receiving written final approval of the modification from Cal OES.

EXHIBIT F.1
Modifications
(cont.)
Subrecipients must provide a written justification with all modification requests. The justification may be included in the body of the e-mail transmitting the request, or in a document attached to the transmittal e-mail. Please reference GMM 2018- 17 for additional information regarding modification requests.

Modifications to National Priority Projects have additional restrictions as indicated below:

Modifications which do not change the project scope and do not decrease the overall project budget can be processed via regular modification request.

Modifications which change the project scope or decrease the overall project budget will require DHS/FEMA approval and must be requested on the National Priority Project Modification Form.

Training All grant-funded training activities must receive Cal OES approval prior to starting the training event. Cal OES shall allow Subrecipients to develop a “placeholder” for future training conferences when an agenda has not been established at the time Subrecipient applications are due. Please work with a Program Representative and the Training Branch to identify a possible “placeholder” for these types of training activities.

When seeking approval of non-DHS/FEMA developed courses, course materials must be submitted with the approval requests.

Conditional approvals are not offered.

Subrecipients must complete a Training Request Form and submit it electronically to the Cal OES Training Branch to be approved with a Training Feedback Number before beginning any training activities. This includes project components like travel to, materials for, or attendance in training courses. Training Feedback Numbers should be obtained no later than 30 days before the first day of the training or related activities. Requests that are submitted with less than 30 days prior to the start of the training or activity are not guaranteed to be approved in time and run the risk of training being unallowable. Training Feedback numbers must be included on the FMFW Training Ledger to be considered for reimbursement.

For more information on this or other training-related inquiries, contact the Cal OES Training Branch at (805) 594-2500.

EXHIBIT F.1
Exercises,
Improvement
Plans, and AfterAction Reporting
Subrecipients should engage stakeholders to identify long-term training and exercise priorities. These priorities should address capability targets and gaps identified through the THIRA and SPR process, real-world events, previous exercises, and national areas for improvement identified in the NPR.

Subrecipients must report on all exercises conducted with HSGP grant funds. An After-Action Report (AAR)/Improvement Plan (IP) or Summary Report (for Seminars and Workshops) must be
completed and submitted to Cal OES within 90 days after exercise/seminars/workshops are conducted. It is acceptable to submit an Exercise Summary Report for Seminars and Workshops in lieu of a full AAR/IP.

Please e-mail AAR/IPs and Summary Reports to:
• [email protected]
• [email protected]

For exercise-related issues and/or questions, please email the Cal OES Exercise Team at [email protected].

Exercise costs will not be considered for reimbursement until an AAR/IP is received by Cal OES.

Procurement
Standards and
Written
Procedures
Subrecipients must conduct procurement utilizing documented local government procurement standards and procedures, or the federal procurement standards found in 2 C.F.R. Part 200, whichever is more strict. Procurement standards must also contain a written conflict of interest policy which reflect applicable federal, state, local, and tribal laws.

Procurement
Thresholds
Effective June 20, 2018, the micro-purchase threshold was increased from $3,500 to $10,000 and the simplified acquisition threshold was increased from $150,000 to $250,000. These increases apply to all Subrecipient procurements executed on or after June 20, 2018. Refer to IB 434 for additional information.

EXHIBIT F.1
Procurement
Documentation
Per 2 C.F.R. § 200.318(i), non-federal entities other than states and territories are required to maintain and retain records sufficient to detail the history of procurement covering at least the rationale for the procurement method, contract type, contractor selection or rejection, and the basis for the contract price. For any cost to be allowable, it must be adequately documented per 2 C.F.R. § 200.403(g). Documentation that would cover this information include, but are not limited to:
• Solicitation documentation, such as requests for quotes, invitations for bids, or requests for proposals;
• Responses to solicitations, such as quotes, bids, or proposals; • Pre-solicitation independent cost estimates and postsolicitation cost/price analyses on file for review by federal personnel, if applicable;
• Contract documents and amendments, including required contract provisions; and other documents required by federal regulations applicable at the time a grant is awarded to a Subrecipient.

Noncompetitive
Procurement
All noncompetitive procurements exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold requires Cal OES prior written approval to be eligible for reimbursement. This method of procurement must be approved by the local Purchasing Agent prior to submitting a request for Cal OES approval. A copy of the Purchasing Agent’s approval must be included with the Cal OES Request for
Noncompetitive Procurement Authorization form. Cal OES may request additional documentation that supports the procurement effort.

Cal OES will not reimburse for any noncompetitive procurement contracts for any HSGP terrorism-related training, regardless of the cost of the training. Exceptions to this policy may be approved in limited circumstances, e.g., related to a procurement effort that has resulted in inadequate competition. Please refer to GMM2017-01A and GMM2021-05 for additional guidance.

Performance
Bond
Due to the risks associated with delays in vendor delivery of large equipment procurements, DHS/FEMA allows Subrecipients to obtain a “performance bond” for items that are paid for up front to ensure delivery of the equipment within the grant performance period.

EXHIBIT F.1
Performance
Bond (cont.)
Cal OES requires Subrecipients obtain a performance bond for any equipment item over $250,000 or any vehicle, aircraft, or watercraft that has been paid with HSGP funds prior to receiving the final product(s).

Performance Bond Waivers may be granted on a case-by-case basis and must be submitted to Cal OES prior to procurement.

Environmental
Planning and
Historic
Preservation
DHS/FEMA is required to ensure all activities and programs that are funded by the agency comply with federal Environmental Planning and Historic Preservation (EHP) regulations. Subrecipients proposing projects or activities (including, but not limited to, training, exercises, the installation of equipment, and construction or renovation projects) that have the potential to impact the environment, or a historic structure must participate in the EHP screening process. EHP Screening Memos must include detailed project information, explain the goals and objectives of the proposed project, and include supporting documentation.

DHS/FEMA may also require the Subrecipient to provide a confidential California Historical Resources Information System (CHRIS) report in addition to the EHP Screening Form.

Determination on the necessity of a CHRIS report is based upon information disclosed on the form. Program Representatives will provide additional instructions should this report be required.

EHP Screening Requests should be submitted to Cal OES as early as possible. All projects/activities triggering EHP must receive DHS/FEMA written approval prior to commencement of the
funded activity.

Updated information may be referenced in the FEMA GPD EHP Policy Guidance.

Construction
and Renovation
When applying for construction activity at the time of
application, including communication towers, Subrecipients must submit evidence of approved zoning ordinances, architectural plans, any other locally required planning permits, and a notice of federal interest. Additionally, Subrecipients are required to submit an SF-424C Budget and Budget Detail that cites project costs. Communication tower construction requests also require evidence that the Federal Communications Commission’s
Section 106 review process was completed.

EXHIBIT F.1
Construction
and Renovation
(cont.)
Subrecipients using funds for construction projects must comply with the Davis-Bacon Act. Subrecipients must ensure that their contractors or subcontractors for construction projects pay workers no less than the prevailing wages for laborers and mechanics employed on projects of a character like the contract work in the civil subdivision of the state in which the work is to be performed.

Project construction using SHSP and UASI funds may not exceed $1,000,000 or 15% of the grant subaward (For the purposes of limitations on funding levels, communications towers are not considered construction).

Written approval for construction must be provided by DHS/FEMA prior to the use of any HSGP funds for construction or renovation.

Inventory
Control and
Property
Management
Subrecipients must use standardized resource management concepts for resource typing and credentialing, in addition to maintaining an inventory by which to facilitate the effective identification, dispatch, deployment, tracking, and recovery of resources.

Subrecipients must have an effective inventory management system, to include:
• Property records that document description, serial/ID number, fund source, title information, acquisition date, cost, federal cost share, location, use, condition, and ultimate disposition; • A physical inventory conducted at least every two years; • A control system to prevent loss, damage, and theft of grant purchased equipment and supplies; and
• Adequate maintenance procedures to keep the property in good condition.

Equipment
Disposition
When original or replacement equipment acquired under the HSGP is no longer needed for program activities, the Subrecipient must contact the Program Representative to request disposition instructions. See 2 C.F.R. § 200.313(e).

EXHIBIT F.1
Performance
Reporting
Subrecipients must complete a Biannual Strategic
Implementation Report (BSIR) each Winter and Summer using the DHS/FEMA Grants Reporting Tool (GRT) for the duration of the subaward period of performance or until all grant activities are completed and the subaward is formally closed by Cal OES.

Failure to submit a BSIR could result in subaward reduction, suspension, or termination.

Access to the BSIR may be obtained through the GRT.

To create a new account, please click the link that reads, “Register for an account” and follow the instructions provided.

The Subrecipient will be required to ensure up-to-date project information is entered. The Project Ledger in the FMFW may assist with the BSIR data entry process. For additional assistance with the GRT, please contact your Program Representative.

Extension
Requests
Extensions to the initial period of performance identified in the subaward will only be considered through formal, written requests to your Program Representative. Upon receipt of the extension request, Cal OES will:

1. Verify compliance with performance reporting requirements by confirming the Subrecipient has submitted all necessary performance reports;

2. Confirm the Subrecipient has provided sufficient justification for the request; and

3. If applicable, confirm the Subrecipient has demonstrated sufficient progress in past situations where an extension was authorized by Cal OES.

Extension requests will be granted only due to compelling legal, policy, or operational challenges, must be project-specific and will only be considered for the following reasons:

1. Contractual commitments with vendors that prevent
completion of the project within the period of performance;

2. The project must undergo a complex environmental review which cannot be completed within this timeframe;

3. Projects are long-term by design and therefore, acceleration would compromise core programmatic goals; and

4. Where other special circumstances exist.

EXHIBIT F.1
Extension
Requests (cont.)
To be considered, extension requests must be received no later than 60 days prior to the end of the Subrecipient’s period of performance and must contain specific and compelling
justifications as to why an extension is required. All extension requests must address the following:

1. Grant program, fiscal year, and award number;

2. Reason for delay;

3. Current status of the activity/activities;

4. Approved period of performance termination date and new project completion date;

5. Amount of funds drawn down to date;

6. Remaining available funds, both federal and non-federal;

7. Budget outlining how remaining federal and non-federal funds will be expended;

8. Plan for completion, including milestones and timeframes for each milestone and the position/person responsible for
implementing the plan for completion; and

9. Certification the activity/activities will be completed within the extended period of performance without any modification to the original Project Scope.

General questions regarding extension requirements and the extension request form, should be directed to your Program Representative. For additional information, please see IB 379.

Extension requests for personnel and salaries do not meet the requirements of IB 379 and will not be granted. Subrecipients are expected to complete all grant-funded personnel activities by the end of the subaward period of performance.

Progress Reports
on Grant
Extensions
All Subrecipients that receive Cal OES approval to extend their FY 2022 grant subaward period of performance may be required to submit progress reports indicating completed and future project milestones on all extended projects. Progress reports must be submitted electronically to the Subrecipient’s Program Representative. Deadlines for the submission of progress reports will be established at the time of extension approval.

Monitoring Cal OES Grants Monitoring actively monitors Subrecipients, through day-to-day communications, programmatic site visits, desk, and on-site compliance assessments. The purpose of the compliance assessment is to ensure Subrecipients are in compliance with applicable state and federal regulations, grant guidelines, and programmatic requirements.

EXHIBIT F.1
Monitoring
(cont.)
Monitoring activities may include, but are not limited to:
• Verifying entries recorded on the FMFW categories are properly supported with source documentation;
• Eligibility of and support for expenditures, typically covering two to three years of data;
• Comparing actual Subrecipient activities to those approved in the grant application and subsequent modifications, including the review of timesheets and invoices as applicable;
• Procurements and contracts;
• Ensuring equipment lists are properly maintained and physical inventories are conducted;
• Ensuring advances have been disbursed in accordance with applicable guidelines; and
• Confirming compliance with:
• Standard Assurances, and
• Information provided on performance reports and payment requests
NOTE: It is the responsibility of all Subrecipients that pass down grant funds to other entities, to maintain and utilize a formal process to monitor the grant activities of their subawards. This requirement includes, but is not limited to, on-site verification of grant activities, as required. It is common for Subrecipients to receive findings in a programmatic site visit or compliance assessment, which require a Corrective Action Plan (CAP) to be submitted by Subrecipients. Those Subrecipients who fail to submit a CAP, as required, shall have a “hold” placed on any future reimbursements until the “finding” is resolved.

Failure to Submit
Required Reports
Periodic reporting is required by the grant. Subrecipients who miss a single reporting deadline may receive a letter addressed to their Board of Supervisors informing them of the failure to report.

County OAs and tribes who fail to report twice consecutively may have subsequent awards reduced by 10% until timely reporting is reestablished; UASIs may have a “hold” placed on any future reimbursements.

Suspension/
Termination
Cal OES may suspend or terminate grant funding, in whole or in part, or other measures may be imposed for any of the following reasons:

EXHIBIT F.1
Suspension/
Termination
(cont.)
• Failure to submit required reports.
• Failure to expend funds in a timely manner consistent with the • grant milestones, guidance, and assurances.
• Failure to comply with the requirements or statutory progress toward the goals or objectives of federal or state law. • Failure to make satisfactory progress toward the goals or objectives set forth in the Subrecipient application.
• Failure to follow Grant Subaward requirements or Special Conditions.
• Proposing or implementing substantial plan changes to the extent that, if originally submitted, the application would not have been selected for funding.
• False certification in the application or document.
• Failure to adequately manage, monitor, or direct the grant funding activities of their Subrecipients.

Before taking action, Cal OES will provide the Subrecipient reasonable notice of intent to impose corrective measures and will make every effort to informally resolve the problem.

Closeout Cal OES will close-out Subrecipient awards when it determines all applicable administrative actions and all required work of the federal award have been completed.

Subawards will be closed after:
• All funds have been requested and reimbursed, or
disencumbered;
• Receiving all applicable Subrecipient reports indicating all approved work has been completed, and all funds have
been distributed;
• Completing a review to confirm the accuracy of reported information;
• Reconciling actual costs to subawards, modifications, and payments; and
• Verifying the Subrecipient has submitted a final BSIR showing all grant funds have been expended.

Records
Retention
The records retention period is three years from the date of the Cal OES Grant Closeout letter, or until any pending litigation, claim, or audit started before the expiration of the three-year retention period has been resolved and final action is taken.

EXHIBIT F.1
Records
Retention (cont.)
For indirect cost rate proposals, cost allocation plans, or other rate computation records, the start of the record retention period is dependent on whether the proposal, plan, or other
computation is required to be submitted to the federal
government (or to the pass-through entity) for negotiation purposes. See 2 C.F.R. § 200.334(f).

In order for any cost to be allowable, it must be adequately documented per 2 C.F.R. § 200.403(g).

The Cal OES Grant Closeout Letter will notify the Subrecipient of the start of the records retention period for all programmatic and financial grant-related records.

If the State Administrative Agency’s award remains open after the Subrecipient’s submission of the final BSIR, Cal OES will complete any additional BSIR reporting required under the award on behalf of the Subrecipient.

Closed grants may still be monitored and audited. Failure to maintain all grant records for the required retention period could result in a reduction of grant funds, and an invoice to return costs associated with the unsupported activities.

If documents are retained longer than the required retention period, FEMA, the DHS Office of Inspector General, Government Accountability Office, and pass-through entity have the right to access these records as well. See 2 C.F.R. §§ 200.334, 200.336.

AGENDA STAFF REPORT
City of West Covina | Office of the City Manager
DATE: June 6, 2023
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Paulina Morales
Acting City Manager
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF CONTINUED POLICE COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY SERVICES RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council take the following actions:

Authorize the Acting City Manager to execute an agreement with SDI Presence LLC, in an annual amount up to $250,000, for a term of three years (with the option of two one-year extensions), for continued specialized computer technology services for the Police Department, using available federal equitable sharing funds (in Fund 117), in substantially the form as attached and in such final form as approved by the City Attorney.

1. Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute future amendments exercising the extension options.

2. BACKGROUND:

Information technology is a sophisticated and essential tool for municipal public safety departments. The federal government mandates heightened Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) computer protocols specifically for law enforcement databases and computer operations.

DISCUSSION:

The West Covina Police Department has contracted for specialized computer technology services for several years, using federal equitable sharing funds. Those professional, specialized services include computer Information Technology (IT) and infrastructure support, and administrative and technical services related to the Computer Aided Dispatch and Records Management System (CAD-RMS) products and partnerships of the West Covina Service Group (WCSG). The City Council most recently approved a two-year service agreement for these services on June 15, 2021 (Agenda Item #12), and it is now time for a new service agreement.

Previous agreements were with Scientia Consulting Group.  During the term of this latest two-year agreement, Scientia Consulting Group was taken over by SDI Presence LLC.  The Scientia staff, with specialized expertise specific to law enforcement computer operations, and with intimate knowledge of WCPD’s computer systems, all moved seamlessly to SDI Presence. The performance of these specialized services by SDI Presence staff for WCSG and the Police Department has been outstanding.

In recent years, SDI Presence staff successfully delivered a large range of information technology services, including the following:

Design, configuration, and installation of computer network hardware and software solutions, including updated wiring
Implementation of improved data backup system.  This system has allowed WCPD to weather ransomware and other cyber attacks
Interfaces with vehicle-mounted mobile computers
Maintenance of critical computer infrastructure including servers, routers, firewalls, etc.

Managing security and encryption protocols
Implementation of a Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) storage solution Improvements to security and encryption protocols as mandated by the federal Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) Security Policy
Implemented cost-saving improvements including a new cellular data provider specific to the Department’s vehicle-mounted mobile data computers (MDCs) CAD-RMS data conversion, facilitating the CAD-RMS partnership with a private company Implementation of new CAD-RMS products, for West Covina, and other partnering agencies/clients Implementation of new software for the Police Station security camera system Additionally, SDI Presence staff are currently working on vitally important projects that will be implemented in the next year at the Police Department.  These include new body-worn and in-car camera systems, and new mobile data computers.

It is vital to the ongoing computer operations of the WCSG and Police Department to continue these IT and WCSG services with SDI Presence. In the marketplace of computer consultants, only SDI Presence staff possess detailed knowledge and understanding of the West Covina Police Department’s computer operations and infrastructure, and WCSG’s CAD-RMS partnerships and infrastructure. SDI Presence staff are well versed in adherence to CJIS policy, and come from law enforcement professions, each having successfully passed a government background investigation.

Per Section 2-335(1) of the Municipal Code, procurement for professional services, which includes information services consultants, is exempt from competitive bidding. Additionally, in this instance, specialized expertise is required, including understanding of Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) computer protocols mandated by the federal government that are specific to law enforcement databases, and detailed familiarity with West Covina Service Group computer infrastructure, and its existing CAD-RMS partnerships. Selecting a different vendor would not meet the computer security needs of the Police Department, but would instead jeopardize the security and functionality of public safety computer operations.

Thus, staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement, and subsequent purchase order agreement(s), in an annual amount up to $250,000, for a term of three years (with the option of two one-year extensions) with SDI Presence LLC, in a form approved by the City Attorney, for continued specialized Police computer technology services (see Attachment No. 1). Federal equitable funds for these purchase agreements have already been appropriated in the current budget in Fund 117, and will be likewise appropriated in the following fiscal years.

LEGAL REVIEW:

The City Attorney will approve the final form of the agreement prior to execution.

Chambers benefit local businesses by providing networking opportunities, visibility, business advocacy, credibility, and economic growth.

In the past, when the West Covina Chamber was operating, their responsibilities included, but were not limited to, the following:

Developing and maintaining a plan for marketing West Covina businesses to the residents of West Covina and beyond and marketing the City as a desirable community, in which to locate a business;
Developing and implementing outreach programs to serve the various businesses; Advocating on behalf of its members and the City’s business community; Dealing with public and governmental policy issues impacting the business community; Identifying business-related organizations with whom it could partner; Expanding the level and frequency of direct contact between the Chamber and the business community
The West Covina Chamber of Commerce received funding from the former West Covina Redevelopment Agency (RDA), of approximately $75,000 to $100,000 per fiscal year. The funds covered operational costs, rent, and various programs supporting small businesses. The West Covina Chamber of Commerce stopped receiving funding from the RDA around 2009; shortly thereafter, the Greater West Covina Business Association (GWC) was formed. Similar to the West Covina Chamber, GWC was a separate entity from the City, and was ran by local community and business members.

DISCUSSION:

Currently, the Community and Economic Development Division (CED) staff is responsible for economic development efforts in the City, such as:

Providing business and entitlement assistance;
Managing and administering business loans;
Connecting businesses to available resources;
Assisting property owners in marketing available tenant spaces/properties; Providing site selection to prospective tenants;
Marketing and promoting the City at industry events for business attraction; Conducting business outreach, such as contacting property owners/management, and conducting Retail Surveys;
Partnering with local non-profits to host business events such as West Covina Small Business Week
The City of West Covina currently has approximately 2,365 businesses with storefronts in our city, with 1,275 more that are home-based. The City Council has requested staff consider revamping economic efforts, such as increasing business attractions and forming a Chamber. If CED were to expand on its services, the following services would be prioritized:

Business Attraction, Retention, and Expansion:

Table 1. Estimated Cost for Economic Development Efforts The Council request also included establishing a Chamber. In order to establish a Chamber, the following would need to be taken into consideration:

Establishing a Non-Profit Entity separate from the City - (Estimated Cost: $5,000-$10,000) Timeline: Up to one (1) to two (2) years dependent on state and federal processing times Establishing a Board of Directors and Bylaws
Will require the appointment of initial board members
A Chamber and Board of Directors created by direct action of the City Council may be subject to all regulations applicable to governmental agencies (i.e. the Brown Act, Public Record Act, Conflict-of-Interest, etc.).

Staffing
Increase staffing levels, the Community and Economic Development Division currently only has two (2) staff members. Staff proposes adding a part-time position to start. (Estimated Cost: $42,500)
Membership program
Establish membership package:

Surrounding chambers charge a range from $50 to $525 (dependent on the type of business) or $225 to $10,000 (dependent on the packages provided) Recruit West Covina businesses for membership and leadership Host Events/Seminars/Workshops (Estimated Cost: $8,000) Host Events/Seminars/Workshops (Estimated Cost: $8,000) Provide more extensive marketing services (Estimated Cost: $42,000) to members such as:

E-Newsletter
Social Media
Website
Membership business directory
Discounted Sponsorship Opportunities
Office Supplies (Estimated Costs: $10,000)
Total estimated initial cost: $107,500 - $112,500
If a Chamber is established by the City, staff will oversee the operation and implementation of programs and policies, develop and implement membership development and retention programming that will maximize its membership, and maintain and improve the business and economic climate. Overseeing the Chamber may potentially cost $102,000 for direct overhead costs initially, which may eventually be funded by the membership fees. In addition to this, existing staff hours would be utilized - an annual value of approximately $81,600. An approach to establishing a Chamber can be done in the following phases:

Phase I – Develop an internal Chamber run by City staff, including, but not limited to:

Establish budget and membership cost, including conducting a fee study Identify roles within the division
Develop programming and services
Identify potential partnerships (e.g. other business organizations) Establish goals for Chamber
Phase II – Obtain Necessary Approvals
City approvals
Nonprofit status
Phase III – Launch Chamber
Establish the internal entity and run the services for at least one (1) year Phase IV – Evaluate / Reassess
Evaluate Chamber goals and determine the best path forward The City establishing a Chamber would be a pilot program. Staff will be evaluating how to best serve the business community with the programs and services being managed and administered. As Chambers are typically non-profit entities, allowing businesses to deduct membership any Chamber-related activities as a business expense, staff will work with the City Attorney’s Office to make the Chamber a non-profit organization for tax exemption purposes.

Staff will work with the City Attorney’s Office to assist in establishing a Chamber.

Prepared by: Karen Ko, Economic Development Project Coordinator Fiscal Impact
FISCAL IMPACT:

The proposed Economic Development efforts and creation of a Chamber are not part of the FY 2023-2024 Proposed Budget. If City Council authorizes the expansion of economic efforts and/or the creation of a Chamber, a budget amendment impacting the General Fund would be required.

The FY2023-2024 Proposed Budget had an estimated Revenue less Expenditures of approximately $176,000. The estimated cost to implement both programs ranges from $185,500 to $340,500. While a portion of this cost would be one-time and could come from available unassigned fund balance (estimated to be approximately $5.7 million), at least $180,500 would be recurring. However, the recurring Chamber expenses will eventually be supplemented by membership dues, reducing the overall impact on the General Fund.

Service Estimated Cost
Attend Events $18,000
Update Marketing Campaign $50,000 -$200,000
