States are encouraged to follow the FEMA Instructor Quality Assurance Prograln to ensure a lninilnuln level of cOlnpetency and cOlTesponding levels of evaluation of student learning. This is patticularly iInportant for those courses that involve training of trainers. This infonnation is contained in an Infollnation Bulletin #193, issued October 20, 2005. Training Activities States, telTItOlies, and Urban Areas are strongly encouraged to use HSGP funds to develop a State/tenitolY hOlneland secuIity training prograln. Allowable training related costs under HSGP include the establishment, sUPP0l1, conduct, and attendance of training specifically identified under the SHSP, UASt, MMRS, and CCP grant programs. Allowable training topics include, but are not liInited to, CBRNE tenorism, cyber/agriculture/food security, intelligence gatheling and analysis, NIMS related training, citizen and cOlnmunity preparedness, and training for volunteers. Training conducted using HSGP funds should address a peIformance gap identified through an After Action ReportllInprovelnent Plan (AAR/IP) or contribute to building a capability that will be evaluated through an exercise. Exercises should be used to provide the opportunity to demonstrate and validate skills leanled in training, as well as to identify training gaps. Any training or training gaps should be identified in the AAR/IP and addressed in the State or Urban Area training cycle. All training and exercises conducted with HSGP funds should SUPPOlt the developInent and testing of the jUlisdiction' s Elnergency Operations Plan (EOP) or specific annexes, where applicable. 20 III. Program Requirements C. National Incident Management System (NIMS) Compliance HSPD-5, '"'"Management of Domestic Incidents," lnandated the creation ofNIMS and the National Response Plan (NRP). NIMS provides a consistent fralnework for entities at all jUlisdictionallevels to work together to lnanage dOlnestic incidents, regardless of cause, size, or cOlnplexity. To prolnote interoperability and cOlnpatibility alnong Federal, State, local, and ttibal capabilities, NIMS includes a core set of guidelines, standards, and protocols for cOlrunand and lnanagelnent, preparedness, resource lnanagement, cOlrununications and infonnation lnanagelnent, suppolting teclulologies, and lnanagelnent and lnaintenance ofNIMS. The NRP, using the template established by NIMS, is an all- discipline, all-hazards plan that provides the sttucture and lnechanislns to coordinate operations for evolving or potential Incidents of National Significance, which are lnajor events that "require a coordinated and effective response by an appropliate cOlnbination of Federal, State, local, tribal, Plivate sector, and nongovenunental entities." The NIMS Integration Center (NIC) recolrunends 38 NIMS Compliance Objectives for nongovelrunental organizations that SUPPOlt NIMS ilnplelnentation. These activities closely parallel the ilnplelnentation activities that have been required of State, territolial, tribal, and local govenunents since 2004 and can be found at www.felna.gov/pdf/elnerJ?:encv/nims/ngofs.pdf.Tointegrate nonprofit organizations into the broader national preparedness effol1, DHS encourages grantees to consider pursuing these reconunended activities. Additionally, nongovernmental organizations grantees and sub-grantees will be required to meet certain NIMS cOlnpliance requirelnents. This includes all emergency preparedness, response, and/or seculity personnel in the organization pat1icipating in the developlnent, ilnplelnentation, and/or operation of resources and/or activities awarded through this grant lnust complete training progralns consistent with the NIMS National Standard Curricululn Developlnent Guide. MiniInuln training includes IS-700 NIMS: An Introduction. In addition, IS-800.a NRP: An Introduction, Incident COInlnand Systeln (ICS-l 00), Incident COlnmand System (ICS-200), Intennediate Incident COlrunand Systeln (G-300), and Advanced Incident COlrunand System (G-400) are also recolrunended. For additional guidance on NIMS training, please refer to http://www.felna.gov/elner~encv/nilns/nims training.shtln.

Monitoring: Florida Division of Emergency Management US Department of Homeland Security Grants Program Grant Monitoring Process Flolida has enhanced the state and local capability and capacity to prevent, prepare and respond to telTolist tin-eats since 1999 tIu'ough valious funding sources including federal grant funds. As the steward of the State HOlTIeland Secutity Grant Prograln funds, projects and equiplTIent the Flolida Division of Elnergency ManagelTIent (FDEM) has a responsibility to track and nlonitor the status of the grant acti vity and itelTIs purchased. The lTIonitOling process detailed in this docUlTIent is designed to assess a recipient agency's cOlTIpliance with applicable state and federal guidelines. The FDEM is responsible for InonitOling the financial, progralrunatic and capability pOl1ion of the grant to include equiplnent procurelnent and cOlnpliance with applicable SHSGP grant guidance and statutory regulations. Monitoting is accOlnplished utilizing vaIious lnethods including desk InonitOling and on-site visits. There are two plilnary areas reviewed during InonitOling activities - financial and progrmrunatic/capability. Financiallnonitoring is the review of records associated with the purchase and disposition of propelty, projects and contracts. Capability review is the observation of equiplnent purchased, protocols and other associated records. Valious levels of financial and progrmrunatic review lnay be accOlTIplished dUling this process. Desk monitoring is defined as the review of projects, financial activity and technical assistance between the progratn office and the applicant via e-Inail and telephone. Site visits are defined as actual visits to the recipient agency's location by a tealn or melnbers of the FDEM or their designee, to actually observe records, procedures and equipment. Freauencv of annual monitorin2 activity: Each year the FDEM will identify up to 50% of sub-grantees for site visit lnonitoling. It is ilnpOltant to note that although a given grant has been closed successfully, it is still subject to either desk or on-site ITIOnitOling for a five year peIiod following closure. Examoles of areas that may be examined include: Management and administrative procedures Grant folder maintenance Equiplnent accountability and sub-hand receipt procedures Program for obsolescence Status of equipment purchases Status of training for purchased equipment Status and number of response trainings conducted to include nUlnber trained Status and number of exercises Status of planning activity Anticipated projected cOlnpletion Specific difficulties completing the project. Agency NIMS/ICS cOlnpliance documentation In certain circumstances, the FDEM may request additionallnonitoIinglinfonnation if the activity, or lack thereof, on the part of the specific recipient has generated questions froln the region, the sponsoIing state agency or the FDEM leadership. The Inethod of gathering this infolmation will be determined on a case-by-case basis. Desk Inonitoring is an on-going process. Agency recipients will be required to participate in desk top lTIonitoling on an annual basis and as determined by the FDEM. The agency recipients will cOInplete and subInit the desk top InonitoIing within 14 business calendar days of receipt. This contact will provide an opportunity to identify the need for teclmical assistance (T A) and/or a site visit if the FDEM detennines that a recipient is having difficulty cOlnpleting their project. As difficulties/deficiencies are identified, the respective region or sponsOling agency will be notified by the prognun office via elnail. Information will include the grant recipient agency nalne, year and project descIiption and the nature of the issue in question. Many of the issues that atise lTIay be resolved at the regional or sponsoling agency level. Issues that require fulther T A will be referred to the FDEM for assistance. Exmnples of T A include but are not lilnited to: .. EquipInent selection or available vendors ~ Eligibility of iteIns or services *' Coordination and partnership with other agencies within or outside the region or discipline Site Visits Site visits will be conducted by the FDEM or designated personnel. Site visits will be scheduled in advance with the recipient agency POC designated in the grant agreelnent. MonitOling questionnaires will be provided in advance of the visit. 23 The FDEM will also conduct coordinated financial and grant file lnonitoling. These lnonitoling visits will be coordinated with the capability review visits. Subject lnatter expel1s froln other agencies within the region or state Inay be called upon to assist in the fonn of a peer review as needed. All findings related to the capability review will be documented and Inaintained within the FDEM. Site Visit Protocol The following outlines the monitOling protocol for the FDEM: The site visits will begin with those grantees that are cunently spending or have cOlnpleted spending for that federal fiscal year (FFY). Site visits lnay be cOlnbined when geographically convenient. There is a site visit checklist to assist in the cOlnpletion of all required tasks. Site Visit PreDaration A letter will be sent to the recipient agency Point of Contact (PaC) stating the purpose of the site visit at least 30 calendar days before the planned anival date. FDEM personnel will call within the next 10 calendar days to schedule an appointInent to review the grantee's progl1un. The physical location of any equiplnent located at an altenlate site should be confinned with a representative frOln that location and the address should be doculnented in the grantee folder before the site visit. The appointInent should be confinned with the grantee in wliting (elnail is acceptable) and doculnented in the grantee folder. Any persollilel from the FDEM attending the site visit will review the grantee's cOITesponding folder(s) before the visit. Plior to the visit, individual roles will be identified for the site visit. Copies of applicable docUlnents will be Inade and disttibuted to the site visit teatn at a lninilnuln of five (5) calendar days before the visit. A relninder e-Inail should be sent to all tealn Inelnbers and the recipient poe one business day in advance of the site visit. Site Visit Once FDEM persOlmel have atTived at the site, an Olientation conference will be conducted. DUling this tilne, the purpose of the site visit and the itelns FDEM intends to exalnine will be identified. If financiallnonitOling visit will be conducted, they will then explain their objectives and will proceed to pelfonn the financial review. FDEM persollilel will review all files and SUPP0l1ing docUlnentation. Once the sUPPol1ing docUlnentation has been reviewed, a tour/visuaVspot inspection of equiplnent will be conducted. Each iteln should be visually inspected whenever possible. Bigger itelns (computers, response vehicles, etc.) should have an asset decal (infonnation/selial nUlnber) placed in a prOlninent location on each piece of equiplnent as per recipient agency requirements. The selial nUlnber should conespond with the appropliate receipt to confinn purchase. Photographs should be taken of the equiplnent (large capital expenditures in excess of $1 ,000. per iteln). If an iteln is not available (being used dUling tilne of the site visit), the appropliate docUlnentation lnust be provided to account for that patticular piece of equipment. Once the tour/visuaVspot inspection of equiplnent has been cOlnpleted, the FDEM personnel will then conduct an exit conference with the grantee to review the findings. Other progralnlnatic issues can be discussed at this tilne, such as missing qua11erly reports, paYlnent voucher/reilnburselnent, equiplnent, questions, etc. Post Site Visit FDEM personnel will review the site visit worksheet as a tealn and receive notes frOln the Financial Review Tealn, if applicable. Within 30 calendar days of the site visit, a lnonitoling repol1 will be generated and sent to the grantee explaining any issues and cOITective actions required or recOlrunendations. Should no issues or findings be identified, a lnonitoting repolt to that effect will be generated and sent to the grantee.
