Grant Aeciplent Agency Category FY 2015 —Emergency Management Performance MONROE COUNTY Grants Program 13 Organizational Expenditures Planning Expenditures Training Expenditures Exercise Expenditures Equipment Expenditures Management and Administration Expenditures (no greater than 5%) 66,477 Attachment 9 Scope of Work The Emergency Management Performance Grant (EMPG) funding agreement is provided to perform eligible activities as identified in the Program Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA). Eligible activities are outlined below in the Categories and Eliaible Activities. The intent of the EMPG Base Grant Agreement is to provide each county with the means to successfully manage and operate an Emergency Management Program by enhancing county emergency management plans and programs that are consistent with the State Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan and Program (reference Rule Chapter 27P-6, Florida Administrative Code and Chapter 252, Florida Statutes). Counties must be able to prepare for, respond to, recover from, and mitigate against natural and man-made disasters! emerglencies. Each Emergency Management staff person must work the number of hours and assume the responsibilities for the duties in their official posItion description as well as provide the coordination and support for all incidents within their iurisdiction. The minimum acceptable standard for aavment Is to maintain a 24-7 operation. This includes any service related to the "Categories and Eligible Activities" listed below, as well as completing the Program Goals (Attachment C). Items listed in Attachment C are to be reviewed during the mid- year and end -of year progress report prepared in conjunction with the Division's Regional Coordinator to ensure county compliance. By signing this Agreement the Recipient certifies that it will use these funds to enhance the county's Emergency Management Program. Monitoring: Monitoring will be accomplished through desk -based review, on -site monitoring visits, or both. Monitoring will involve the review and analysis of the financial, programmatic, performance, compliance and administrative processes, policies, activities, and other attributes of each county and will identify areas where technical assistance, corrective actions and other support may be needed. Desk monitoring is the review of projects, financial activity and technical assistance between the Division and the applicant via e-mail and telephone. On -Site Monitoring are actual visits to the recipient agencies by a Division representative who examines records, procedures and equipment. The Division may request additional monitoringfinformation if the activity, or lack thereof, generates questions from the region, the sponsoring agency or Division leadership. The method of gathering this information will be determined on a case -by -case basis. Piggy -backing: The practice of procurement by one agency using the agreement of another agency is called piggybacking. The existing contract must contain language or other legal authority authorizing third parties to make purchases from the contract with the vendor's consent. The terms and conditions of the new contract, including the scope of work, must be substantially the same as those of the existing contract. The piggyback contract may not exceed the existing contract in the scope of volume of goods or services. An agency may not use the preexisting contract merely as a "basis to begin negotiations" for a broader or materially different contract. 14 Federally funded projects must be competitively solicited offering open competition. Piggy -backing off existing agreements is not allowed unless justified by additional quotes demonstrating cost benefit of contract vendor. This includes the use of State Term Contracts (STC), State Alternate Contract Sources (ACS), General Services Administration (GSA) contracts, and local agreements. Each award under this grant is anew' project and must be competitively awarded. FDEM requires suspension and debarment forms for each vendor and justification of vendor selection. FDEM must Pre-aplarove all sco es of work for projects funded under this agreement. FDEM may at its discretion require solicitation documents and responses. I. Categories and Eligible Activities The 2015 Emergency Management Performance Grants (EMPG) Program Guidance allowable costs are divided into the following categories: organizational, planning, training, exercise, equipment, and management and administration.

Program approval will require: compliance with appropriate federal and state laws, rules and regulations; satisfactory completion of work elements of the previous year, and, a current proposal containing work elements commensurate with the needs of that county and a proposed budget. Eligible County Emergency Management Agencies in the state shall be allocated annual Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Emergency Management Performance Grant (EMPG) funding based on the following factors: an amount initially allocated to the county under its Fiscal Year 1994-95 Emergency Management Assistance agreement with the Division of Emergency Management (Division), a base amount distributed equally to each county and an amount commensurate with each county's proportionate share of the state's total population based on the most recent official population estimates. These amounts shall be increased or 15 decreased to reflect additions or reductions in the availability of FNMA EMPG funds to the Division and the Division's distribution of funds to local governments. After providing for the initial allocation and the base amount allocation as described above, each county's increase or decrease shall be commensurate with its proportionate share of the state's total population based on the most recent official population estimates. Federal funds shall be used by the county for personnel, travel and operational expenses. Each county must be able to provide a non-federal match for federal funds on a dollar for dollar basis.
