COMMITTEE REPORT TO BOARD
Resolution #2024-4026
Motion to approve the submission of the 2025 Lead Education and Faucet Replacement Program
grant application to the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services in the amount of
$103,636 for the period October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025.
ITEM CATEGORY SPONSORED BY

INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
The Oakland County Health Division is applying for the 2025 Lead Education and Faucet
Replacement Program grant through the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services
(MDHHS) in the amount of $103,636 for the period October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025.
The purpose of the Lead Education and Faucet Replacement Program is to prevent lead exposure
from drinking water to Medicaid enrolled households with children or pregnant people. Grant funds
support performing lead education home visits, providing drinking water filters, performing plumbing
assessments to document the material of the interior plumbing, and accessing and assisting families
in applying for the MDHHS Lead Safe Home Program; with training from MDHHS. These activities
will allow MDHHS to install a new primary drinking water faucet for residents residing in the city of
Pontiac if their faucet is older than 2014. The Lead Education and Faucet Replacement Program
requires three (3) to five (5) home visits and plumbing assessments in an eight (8) hour day. The
grant application requests funding for two (2) Special Revenue (SR) Part-time Non-eligible (PTNE)
1,000-hour Public Health Sanitarian positions to conduct home visits and plumbing assessments.
POLICY ANALYSIS
The application and future acceptance of this grant does not obligate the County to any future
commitment and continuation of this program is contingent upon continued future levels of grant
funding.
BUDGET AMENDMENT REQUIRED: No

B. Process & Steps to be Successful (10 points) - click "Show Instructions" for full question
The Oakland County Health Division (OCHD) has a very long history of successful implementation of programs and
services that are both outreach based and appointment based. The Environmental Health Services (EHS) Unit
currently provides Elevated Blood Level (EBL) Environmental Investigations at homes with children reported at a
blood level of 10µg/dl and above assigning one (1) of three (3) current EBL Investigators/Lead Risk Assessors
endorsed by MDHHS. These full investigations include a plumbing assessment and water sampling for lead
according to MDHHS protocols. In the past, EHS participated in plumbing assessments and lead sampling in
Oakland County controlled buildings using the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy
protocols for lead sampling in schools and daycares. EHS also has responsibility for mandated programs such as
the private and Type III well program, onsite wastewater, and the noncommunity public well program that all have
plumbing review components. Experience in all of the above programs has provided expertise in the initial outreach
for program recruitment, and scheduling using standard electronic calendar integration shared by assigned staff,
program supervision, and OCHD Administration.
Steps for successful performance will include the initial advertising of the program using some or all of established
internal processes for press releases, leveraging local and regional print media, OCHD social media platforms, and
Oakland County Website updates. Recruitment will primarily be by direct mailing utilizing a list of eligible
households provided by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services. Scheduling of plumbing
assessments will be kept on internal, electronic and shared calendars for participating staff. Staff will perform the
education and plumbing assessments in teams of two (2). Transportation to scheduled appointments is through
staff member personal vehicle with mileage reimbursement according to the current federal rate. No transportation
needs are expected of the client, as these are in-home visits.
C. Program Success (10 points) - click "Show Instructions" for full question
Environmental Health Services (EHS) within the Oakland County Health Division (OCHD) has long standing
processes for program self-assessment. Through the Michigan Local Public Health Accreditation Program, EHS
completes annual, full program assessments and quarterly reporting for mandated programs, such as onsite
wastewater and Private and Type III water wells, using standardized State forms and local assessment tools to
ensure minimum program requirements and local expectations are met. Further, EHS voluntarily completes a
similar, but not mandated, annual self-assessment of our Food Service Inspection program. Information about
program outcomes from annual assessments and quarterly review of program performance is used to target training
topics, inform policy revision, and provide feedback to assigned staff for both positive outcomes and outcomes
needing further effort. Similarly, an internal program review tool will be created to detail goals, minimum program
requirements, additional internal expectations, and expected outcomes. Weekly review of all home visits, plumbing
assessments, and outreach efforts provides the opportunity to identify strengths and weaknesses in initial efforts so
adjustments can be made in staffing, potential partnerships, and revisions to written internal policies created for the
program. Financial status monitoring and reporting is done through OCHD financial reporting software by program

supervision and assigned accountants from Oakland County Management and Budget, Fiscal Services Unit.
D. Recruitment Plan (8 points) - click "Show Instructions" for full question
If selected, the Oakland County Health Division (OCHD) will use the identified Medicaid enrolled individuals
provided by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services. The initial campaign will require a kick-off
press release and distribution to local and regional media outlets currently established in the OCHD Community
Health Promotion and Intervention Services Unit. Health Educators within the unit will also be leveraged to create a
social media presence, update and maintain program information on the Oakland County Website, and to create
recruitment fliers for distribution within the community. Existing partnerships established through successful
outreach programs administered by Public Health Nurses in the Personal and Preventative Health Services Unit of
OCHD will be engaged to assist in the advertising and distribution of informational and recruitment materials.
Examples of existing partnerships include the Oakland County Great Start Collaborative helping keep children
healthy, thriving, and developmentally ready to succeed; Early On Oakland that provides support services and
resources for small children with health conditions or developmental delay; and Oakland Family Services who
provide safe and secure homes for families in need along with programs for early education. Advertising will be
followed by mass-mailing to residents on the MDHHS list. Follow-up within the community will have multiple efforts
including engagement of community partners, seeking and establishing new community partnerships, and finally the
potential for door-to-door introduction to the program or leaving informational door-hangers.
E. Data Collection (3 points) - click "Show Instructions" for full question
Assigned staff, along with designated Supervisors and program Chief, will participate in all trainings offered and use
forms provided by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS). A spreadsheet will be kept
to track and monitor recruitment efforts and participants. The spreadsheet, forms, and educational materials will be
maintained on the internal file sharing system SharePoint with shared, simultaneous access to program staffing. In
addition, all grants in Oakland County are assigned a specific grant number that is used to code staffing time and
expenses such as personal mileage through enterprise management software Workday. Each grant is assigned a
Grant Manager that receives notices for staffing and expense review through Workday. Program Supervision will
review individual plumbing assessment forms, monitor progress toward the OCHD goal of 500 or more enrollees,
and provide program reporting to the Chief. These practices will ensure integrity of weekly reporting of home visits,
plumbing assessment, and outreach information, accuracy of monthly Financial Status Reports, and detailed
quarterly workplan reports.
F. External Partners (5 points) - click "Show Instructions" for full question
For recruitment and implementation of this program, OCHD fully intends to approach existing community
partnerships to determine how we can expand on existing service in Pontiac by offering this opportunity. Examples
of existing partnerships include the Oakland County Great Start Collaborative helping keep children healthy,
thriving, and developmentally ready to succeed; Early On Oakland that provides support services and resources for
small children with health conditions or developmental delay; Oakland Family Services who provide safe and secure
homes for families in need along with programs for early education, and Oakland Livingston Human Service Agency
(OLHSA) as a community action agency supporting Oakland and Livingston County residents that are looking for
assistance in removing the burdens of poverty. Each of these large-presence partners will have channels to engage
qualified households with Medicaid enrolled children or pregnant persons targeted in the program.
G. Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (2 points) - click "Show Instructions" for full question
Oakland County is committed to the goal of operationalizing equity by taking actions to integrate diversity, equity,
and inclusion within our county operations. As a government organization with a commitment to public service and
influence on public decision-making, Oakland County has a responsibility to identify, challenge and change systems
that perpetuate injustices and create disparate outcomes for marginalized and disadvantaged individuals and
communities. We will hold ourselves accountable to this commitment through continuous education around
structural and systemic inequities and intentional incorporation of equity and inclusion in all policies, practices, and
programs. Policies for this grant opportunity will be written and evaluated using Oakland County’s Health Equity

Lens tool. The Health Equity Lens Tool is a process for analyzing or diagnosing the impact of the design and
implementation of a program/policy on under-served and/or marginalized individuals and groups, and to identify and
potentially eliminate barriers. Continued analysis through the tool could lead to Quality Improvement projects using
existing County QI processes.
7.Experience and Past Performance (Maximum 25 points)
A. Experience in Providing Services (15 points) - click "Show Instructions" for full question
The Environmental Health Services (EHS) Unit currently provides Environmental Investigations at homes with
children reported at a blood level of 10µg/dl and above assigning one (1) of three (3) current EBL Investigators/Lead
Risk Assessors endorsed by MDHHS. These full investigations include a plumbing assessment and water sampling
for lead according to MDHHS protocols. Though smaller in scale than this program proposal, the EBL investigation
program, along many other appointment based, in-home programs performed by EHS, introduces many of the same
skills and activities necessary for a successful Lead Education and Faucet Replacement program. The EBL
investigation program incorporates recruitment, partnerships with the Personal and Preventative Health Services
Unit and lead remediation companies, and follow-up with families to ensure continued monitoring of blood lead to
show lead hazards have been successfully removed.
In the past, EHS participated in plumbing assessments and lead sampling in Oakland County controlled buildings
using the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy protocols for lead sampling in schools
and daycares. All buildings, including those under the County Executive and Water Resources Commissioner. This
required partnerships with other County Departments including Facilities Maintenance, Oakland County Courts, and
Parks and Recreation. The effort included every office building, park, a large childcaring institution with associated
schools, houses, and onsite daycare. Hundreds of sink/plumbing assessments and samples were collected to
inform leadership of needed repairs including sink elimination, fixture replacement, lead service line replacement,
and many filtered bottle fillers to replace unfiltered drinking fountains. Follow up sampling within 3 years of the
original effort demonstrated program success with results below 5ppb lead.
B. Residential Housing & Plumbing Assessments Experience (5 points) - click "Show Instructions" for full
question
The Environmental Health Services (EHS) Unit currently provides Elevated Blood Level (EBL) Environmental
Investigations at homes with children reported at a blood level of 10µg/dl and above assigning one (1) of three (3)
current EBL Investigators/Lead Risk Assessors endorsed by MDHHS. These full investigations include a plumbing
assessment and water sampling for lead according to MDHHS protocols. In the past, EHS participated in plumbing
assessments and lead sampling in Oakland County controlled buildings using the Michigan Department of
Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy protocols for lead sampling in schools and daycares. EHS also has
responsibility for mandated programs such as the private and Type III well program, onsite wastewater, and the
noncommunity public well program that all have plumbing review components.
Further experience in the inspection of housing components is found in onsite wastewater program where plumbing
components are evaluated for connection to onsite wastewater treatment systems. Oakland County averages
nearly 800 permits per year in this program and completes thousands of inspections. Additional experience in this
area includes onsite wastewater treatment system evaluations for the City of Southfield related to sewer
construction. Southfield contracted with Oakland County to complete thorough evaluations including determination
of connections within the home with dye testing as needed, calculations of system size, evaluation of the septic
tank, and hand augers into the drain field. Those with a ‘passing’ status were not required to connect to the new
sewer. Over 20% of the systems evaluated did not pass and were required to replace or connect.
C. Education & Outreach Experience (5 points) - click "Show Instructions" for full question
Education of the public is a major component of any program performed by Environmental Health professionals.
Whether it’s documents for maintaining a septic system or well, guidelines and information about food safety,
precautions and water sampling recommendations for well owners within or outside areas of know contamination, or
protecting oneself from mosquito and tick borne disease, Public Health Sanitarians are natural educators. Some

non-mandated programs do require outreach in order to provide the education and/or services available to the
public. One successful outreach program in Environmental Health Services is the education and filter program for
PFAS monitoring and interim control. The largest Michigan PFAS Action Team (MPART) site in Oakland County
had over 50 residential homes with a detection of one or more PFAS chemicals. In conjunction with the Michigan
Department of Health and Human Services and Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy,
Oakland County participates in community meetings, notifies targeted homes of sample results, and facilitates the
installation of PFAS reducing filters at the primary drinking water outlet inside the home. Homeowners have a
choice to accept these services. Through Oakland County’s efforts, we have a filter installation success rate of
nearly 66% and a 100% success rate for filter replacement cartridges.

C. Financial Report (5 point) - click "Show Instructions" for full question
All grants in Oakland County are assigned a specific grant number that is used to code staffing time and expenses
such as personal mileage through enterprise management software Workday. Each grant is assigned a Grant
Manager that receives notices for staffing and expense review through Workday. Existing reports in Workday
provide real-time totals of any expense charged using spend categories available. Information from these reports
will provide a thorough and accurate accounting.
The Oakland County has a long standing history of reporting grant expenditures, and occasional revenues, through
a State-provided Financial Status Report (FSR) template. Two examples of programs specific to Environmental
Health Services are the Inland Beach Monitoring grant and the Local Health Department Grant Agreement between
the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy and Oakland County Health Division. The
Inland Beach Monitoring program has had an award upward of $100,000 and the current Local Health Department
agreement is nearly $750,000. FSR submittal is required quarterly as part of these grant requirements. All
associated spend categories within these FSR documents are above and beyond categories this grant opportunity
will necessitate. Workday provides all needed reports for accounting purposes. All claims on any FSR submitted to
grantors is reviewed and verified by the Oakland County Fiscal Services Unit withing the Department of
Management and Budget.

Lead Education and Faucet Replacement Program RFP Q & A
Q: Has the RFP been posted or will it be after the pre-application
meeting. If posted, can you direct me to the package?
A: The RFP has been posted March 1, 2024. Applications are due April 26, 2024.
To apply, visit the EGrAMS website and select "About EGrAMS" link in the left
panel to access the "Competitive Application Instructions" training manual. The
complete RFP can be accessed under the ‘Current Grants’ section under the
“Public Health Administration” link and selecting the “LEAP-2025” grant program.
Q: How are the target cities being defined? (Mailing address, zip code,
census tract, etc.)
A: The target areas are being defined based on mailing address within city
boundaries.
Q: Will the list of Medicaid homes have the age of the child included in the
information?
A:If selected as a grantee, MDHHS will provide a Medicaid list of Medicaid
enrolled individuals with age of children, date of births as well as identify any
pregnant person(s).
Q: During the webinar, I thought I heard that community health workers are
expected to deliver the services outlined in the RFP. Here is the definition I
found on the MDHHS website "The American Public Health Association’s
widely used definition of a community health worker (CHW) is “a frontline
public health worker who is a trusted member of and/or has an unusually
close understanding of the community served. This trusting relationship
enables the CHW to serve as a liaison/link/intermediary between
health/social services and the community to facilitate access to services
and improve the quality and cultural competence of service delivery. A
CHW also builds individual and community capacity by increasing health
knowledge and self -sufficiency through a range of activities such as
outreach, community education, informal counseling, social support and
advocacy.” The definition is broad, but are you expecting outreach
workers to have some form of certification to perform this work?
A:There is no expectation that the outreach workers have a form of certification
to perform work but there is a preference for staff performing the home visit to
have previous outreach experience. Training from MDHHS staff will occur before
any field work or home visiting begins for the grant.
Q: Regarding the 5,000-character limit for applicant responses… Is this per
category? For example, 5,000 characters for Program Implementation,
5,000 characters for Experience and Past Performance, etc. Or is it 5,000
characters for the entire narrative?
A: The 5,000-c haracter limit pertains to answers per question. Please note
spaces are included in the 5,000-character limit.
Q: Can you provide the number of Medicaid enrolled households with a
child or pregnant person in the City of Detroit?
A: We cannot provide a number for Medicaid enrolled individuals prior to grant
award. One example of publicly available information can be found here:
Medicaid and Healthy Michigan Plan Health Plan Enrollment Report
Q: Are filtered water pitchers given or suggested to be given to the
household at time of home visit, until the faucet is replaced?
A: This is dependent on the timeline of when the vendor/contractor is scheduled
to go to the home to replace the faucet. In most cases, the contractor will
distribute the filter and, in some cases, grantees may be asked to distribute filters
at the time of home visits. All needed filters will be supplied by MDHHS to the
grantee, so it is unnecessary to include as budget line item.
Q: To confirm, the grantee is performing a plumbing assessment only and
will not complete faucet replacement?
A: Correct, the grantee will provide the home visit plumbing assessment and an
approved MDHHS vendor/contractor will perform the faucet replacement.
Q: Who will replace the faucet and how soon after home visit can a family
expect faucet replacement?
A: An MDHHS approved contractor firm/vendor will replace the faucets.
Depending on how many participants are in the program, we are expecting
faucet replacement to occur within two weeks of the home visit plumbing
assessment.
Q: Can we count this visit as a case management visit by the employee (if
they are CHW) for CLPPP reporting, if the child in the home has a
confirmed elevated blood lead level?
A: No, the child should be enrolled in CLPPP case management . If awarded
grant, please direct further questions to CLPPP staff member.
Q: Who is responsible for providing home visit training to employee(s) to
perform lead education home visit?
A: MDHHS staff with subject matter expertise will be providing training to
designated grantee staff.
Q: Do you know how many homes you are planning on visiting in each
community?
A: There is no initial base number as it is dependent on community and grantee
capacity. We estimate that 3-5 site visits can be conducted per day per employee
on average. If awarded, the grantee will set their benchmark of how many home
visits per grant year is a sustainable amount based on staff capacity.
Q: If I can access the application now, does that mean my agency already
has EGrAMS registration and do not need to request Project Director
access to the application?
A: Correct, if you can access the application then you do not need to request
Project Director access. Please ensure you are accessing the correct grant (Lead
Education and Faucet Replacement Program - LEAP 2025). The applicant can
always verify access by reaching out to the EGrAMS Help Desk at MDHHS-
EGrAMS-HELP@michigan.gov or (517) 335-3359.
Q: Will you be reviewing the assessment tool during the call?
A: No, but a draft version is available on the EGrAMS website. The complete
RFP and other documents can be accessed under the ‘Current Grants’ section
under the “Public Health Administration” link and selecting the “LEAP -2025” grant
program and then click “Document ” tab. A final version will be provided to
grantee if awarded the grant and training on questionnaire/assessment will be
provided as well.
Q: With regard to the project costs, is it correct that having additional
outside funding or matching funds is not required?
A: Correct, additional outside funding or matching is not required.
Q: How do I request the list of Medicaid participants in the target
community?
A: We cannot provide a number for Medicaid enrolled individuals prior to grant
award and executed data use agreement. One example of publicly available
information can be found here: Medicaid and Healthy Michigan Plan Health Plan
Enrollment Report
Q: Is the 5,000 character limit per response or total for the application?
A: The 5,000-character limit is per response. Please note spaces are included in
the 5,000-character limit.
Q: Can any agency apply?
A: Yes , as long as the agency can serve one or more target communities defined
in RFP.
Q: If Medicaid list is not provided in advance of the application, how would
someone estimate labor costs- meaning how would we know how many
homes could be visited (If Medicaid list is not provided in advance of the
application, how would someone estimate labor costs.)
A: We estimate that 3-5 site visits can be conducted per day per employee on
average. We anticipate each home visit plumbing assessment to be conducted
by one or two people. If awarded, the grantee will set their benchmark of how
many home visits per grant year is a sustainable amount based on current and/or
new staff capacity.
Q: What is the system being used for data collection?
A: Qualtrics is the data system to be utilized.
Q: You mention training for lead education what does that looks like?
A: MDHHS staff with subject matter expertise will be providing a virtual training to
designated grantee staff prior to any field work beginning.

information in strict confidence and not to copy, reproduce, sell, transfer
or otherwise dispose of, give or disclose such confidential information to
third parties other than employees, agents, or subcontractors of a party
who have a need to know in connection with this Agreement or to use
such confidential information for any purpose whatsoever other than the
performance of this Agreement. The Grantee must take all reasonable
precautions to safeguard the confidential information. These

For the purpose of this Agreement the term “confidential information”
means all information and documentation that:
a.Has been marked “confidential” or with words of similar

4.The Grantee must notify the Department within one business day after
discovering any unauthorized use or disclosure of confidential

way possible to regain possession of the confidential information and
prevent further unauthorized use or disclosure.
Q.Cap on Salaries
None of the funds awarded to the Grantee through this Agreement will be
used to pay, either through a grant or other external mechanism, the salary of
an individual at a rate in excess of Executive Level II. The current rates of pay
for the Executive Schedule are located on the United States Office of
Personnel Management web site, http://www.opm.gov, by navigating to
Policy — Pay & Leave — Salaries & Wages. The salary rate limitation does
not restrict the salary that a Grantee may pay an individual under its
employment; rather, it merely limits the portion of that salary that may be paid
with funds from this Agreement.
IV.Financial Requirements
A.Operating Advance
An operating advance may be requested by the Grantee to assist with
program operations. The request should be addressed to the Contract
Manager identified in Part 1, Section VIII. The operating advance will be
administered as follows:
1.The operating advance amount requested must be reasonable in
relation to factors including but not limited to program requirements, the
period of the Agreement, and the financial obligation. The advance must
not exceed 16.67 percent of the state agreement amount. Operating
advances will be monitored and adjusted by the Department relative to
the Agreement amount.

to the Department in the Grantee’s financial records. The operating
advance payable liability must remain in the Grantee’s financial records
until fully recovered by the Department.
3.The reimbursement for actual expenditures by the Department should
be used by the Grantee to replenish the operating advance used for

T
program operations.
4.The operating advance must be returned to the Department within 30
days of the end date of this Agreement unless the Grantee has a
recurring agreement with the Department for the same services.
Subsequent Department agreements may not be executed if an
outstanding operational advance has not been repaid.
The Department may obtain the Michigan Department of Treasury’s
assistance in collecting outstanding operating advances. The
Department will comply with the Michigan Department of Treasury’s

c.An opportunity for the Grantee to examine the Department’s
associated records.
d.An opportunity for the Grantee to present evidence in person or

e.A hearing official with full authority to correct errors and decide

operating advance. At the end of either the Agreement period or
Department’s fiscal year, whichever is first, the Grantee must respond to
the Department’s request for confirmation of the operating advance.
Failure to respond to the confirmation request may result in the
Department recovering all or part of an outstanding operating advance.
B.Reimbursement Method
The Grantee will be paid for allowable expenditures incurred by the Grantee,
submitted for reimbursement on the Financial Status Reports (FSRs) and
approved by the Department. Reimbursement from the Department is based
on the understanding that Department funds will be paid up to the total
Department allocation as agreed to in the approved budget. Department funds
are the first source after the application of fees and earmarked sources unless
a specific local match condition exists.
C.Financial Status Report Submission
The Grantee must electronically prepare and submit FSRs to the Department
via the EGrAMS website http://egrams-mi.com/mdhhs.
FSRs must be submitted on a monthly basis, no later than 30 days after the

DR
A
F
T
close of each calendar month. The monthly FSRs must reflect total actual
program expenditures, up to the total agreement amount. Adjustments should
not be made to reported expenditures to account for any operational advance
funding received. Failure to meet financial reporting responsibilities as
identified in this Agreement may result in withholding future payments.
The Grantee representative who submits the FSR is certifying to the best of
their knowledge and belief that the report is true, complete and accurate and
the expenditures, disbursements and cash receipts are for the purposes and
objectives set forth in the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The
individual submitting the FSR should be aware that any false, fictitious or
fraudulent information, or the omission of any material facts, may subject them
to criminal, civil or administrative penalties for fraud, false statements, false
claims or otherwise.
The instructions for completing the FSR form are available on the EGrAMS
website http://egrams-mi.com/mdhhs. Send FSR questions to
FSRMDHHS@michigan.gov.
D.Reimbursement Mechanism
All Grantees must register using the on-line vendor self-service site to receive
all state of Michigan payments as Electronic Funds Transfers (EFT)/Direct
Deposits, as mandated by MCL 18.1283a. Vendor registration information is
available through the Department of Technology, Management and Budget’s
web site: https://www.michigan.gov/sigmavss.

The Obligation Report, based on annual guidelines, must be submitted
by the due date established by and using the format provided by the
Department’s Expenditures Operations Division. The Grantee must
provide an estimate of unbilled expenditures for the entire Agreement
period. The information on the report will be used to record the
Department’s year-end accounts payable and receivable for this
Agreement.
2.Department-wide Payment Suspension
A temporary payment suspension is in effect on agreements during the
Department’s year-end closing period. The Department will notify the
Grantee of the date by which FSRs should be submitted to ensure
payment prior to the payment suspension period.
3.Final FSRs
Final FSRs are due 30 days following the end of the Agreement period.
The final FSR must be clearly marked “Final." Final FSRs not received
by the due date may result in the loss of funding requested on the

Agreement period will be returned to the Department within 30 days of the end
of the Agreement or treated in accordance with instructions provided by the
Department.
G.Indirect Costs
The Grantee may use an approved federal or state indirect rate in their budget
calculations and financial status reporting. If the Grantee does not have an
existing approved federal or state indirect rate, they may use a 10% de
minimis rate in accordance with 2 CFR 200 to recover their indirect costs.
Governmental Grantees with an existing cost allocation plan may budget
accordingly in lieu of an indirect cost rate. Non-governmental Grantees may
use a cost allocation plan only if the plan was in place prior to December 26,
2014.

Department for any of the following reasons:
A.By either party by giving 30 days written notice to the other party stating the

convicted of any activity referenced in Part 2 Section III. D. of this Agreement

meet its obligations under Part 2 Section III. R.

any conduct that may expose the State to liability.

similar objectives. The remaining parts of the Agreement will continue in full force and
effect.

parties through an amendment to this Agreement. Any change proposed by the
Grantee which would affect the Department funding of any project must be submitted
