spend provided by the Legislature. The Commission shall be the final authority as to the availability of
funds for this Agreement, and as to what constitutes an "annual appropriation"of funds to complete this
Agreement. If such funds are not appropriated or available for the Agreement purpose, such event will not
constitute a default on behalf of the Commission or the State. The Commission's Grant Manager shall
notify the Recipient in writing at the earliest possible time if funds are not appropriated or available.
F. Non-Competitive Procurement and Rate of Payment.
Section 216.3475, F.S., requires that under non-competitive procurements, a Recipient may not receive a

FWC Agreement No. 922028
the amount of non-competitive compensation provided in this Agreement is in compliance with Section
216.3475, F.S.
G. Cost Reimbursement
If the Compensation section indicates this is a cost reimbursement Agreement, the Recipient shall be paid
on a cost reimbursement basis for all eligible Project costs upon the completion, submittal, and approval of
each deliverable identified in Attachment A. To be eligible for reimbursement, costs must follow the
requirements of Section 215.971, F.S. and must also be in compliance with other laws,rules, and
regulations applicable to expenditures of State funds, including,but not limited to, the Reference Guide for
State Expenditures.
Invoices submitted for cost reimbursement must be itemized by expenditure category as outlined in the
approved Agreement budget. Additionally, the invoice must evidence the completion of all tasks required
to be performed for the deliverable and must show that the Recipient met the minimum performance
standards established in the Agreement. The Commission is required to maintain detailed supporting
documentation and to make it available for audit purposes. By submission of the payment request, the
Commission is certifying that the detailed documentation to support each item on the itemized invoice is on
file at the agency and is available for audit.
Documentation for each amount for which reimbursement is being claimed must indicate that the item has
been paid. Check numbers may be provided in lieu of copies of actual checks. Each piece of documentation
should clearly reflect the dates of service. Only expenditures for the categories in the approved Agreement
budget may be reimbursed. These expenditures must be allowable (pursuant to law) and directly related to
the services being provided. The Commission may require more detailed documentation as deemed
appropriate to satisfy that the terms of the Agreement have been met.
Listed below are types and examples of their supporting documentation:
i. Salaries: Timesheets that support the hours worked on the project or activity must be kept. A
payroll register or similar documentation should be submitted and maintained. The payroll register
should show gross salary charges, fringe benefits, other deductions and net pay. If an individual for
whom reimbursement is being claimed is paid by the hour, a document reflecting the hours worked
times the rate of pay will be acceptable.
ii. Tuition: If the Commission determines tuition, stipends, and/or waivers are allowable costs, the
payments must result from obligations incurred during the specified Agreement period.
Documentation must be provided to show compliance with 215.971, F.S. Examples include but are
not limited to keeping timesheets/time and effort reports/logs that support the hours worked on the
pro]ect or activity. If an individual for whom tuition, stipends and/or waivers are being claimed are
paid by the hour, a document reflecting the hours worked times the rate of pay will be acceptable.
iii. Fringe Benefits: Supported by invoices showing the amount paid on behalf of the employee (e.g.,
insurance premiums paid). If the Agreement specifically states that fringe benefits will be based on
a specified percentage rather than the actual cost of fringe benefits, then the calculation for the
fringe benefits amount must be shown.
a. Exception: Governmental entities are not required to provide check numbers or copies of
checks for fringe benefits.

iv. Travel: To the extent the Commission determines travel is an allowable cost, reimbursement for
travel must be in accordance with Section 112.061, Florida Statutes, which includes submission of
the claim on the approved State travel voucher along with supporting receipts and invoices.
V. Other Direct Costs: To the extent the Commission determines other direct costs are allowable,
reimbursement will be made based on paid invoices/receipts and proof of payment processing
(cancelled/processed checks and bank statements).
vi. In-House Charges: Charges which may be of an internal nature (e.g.,postage, copies, etc.) may be
reimbursed on a usage log which shows the units times the rate being charged. The rates must be
reasonable.
vii. Indirect Costs: To the extent the Commission determines that indirect costs are allowable, and the
Agreement specifies that indirect costs will be paid based on a specified rate, then the calculation
should be provided in the Agreement's budget breakdown. Indirect costs must be in the approved
Agreement budget and the Recipient must be able to demonstrate that the costs are not duplicated
elsewhere as direct costs. All indirect cost rates must be evaluated for reasonableness and for
allowability and must be allocated consistently.
For cost reimbursement Agreements with another State agency (including State universities):
In lieu of the detailed documentation described above, alternative documentation may be submitted to
substantiate the costs requested to be reimbursed. This alternative documentation may be in the form of
FLAIR reports or other reports containing sufficient detail.
H. Time Limits for Payment of Invoices.
Payments shall be made in accordance with Sections 215.422 and 287.0585, F.S., which govern time limits
for payment of invoices. Section 215.422, F.S.provides that agencies have five (5) working days to inspect
and approve Deliverables,unless Attachment A specifies otherwise. If payment is not available within forty
(40) days, measured from the latter of the date the invoice is received or the Deliverables are received,
inspected and approved, a separate interest penalty set by the Department of Financial Services pursuant to
Section 55.03(1), F.S.,will be due and payable in addition to the invoice amount. Invoices returned to a
Recipient due to preparation errors will result in a payment delay. Invoice payment requirements do not
start until a properly completed invoice is provided to the agency.
I. Electronic Funds Transfer.
Recipient agrees to enroll in Electronic Funds Transfer(EFT), offered by the State's Chief Financial
Officer, within thirty (30) days of the date the last Party has signed this Agreement. Copies of the
Authorization form and a sample blank enrollment letter can be found on the vendor instruction page at:
https://www.myfloridacfo.com/division/aa/vendors. Questions should be directed to the State of Florida's
EFT Section at(850) 413-5517. Once enrolled, invoice payments will be made by EFT.

Recipient in writing. Should repayment not be made in a timely manner, the Commission shall be entitled
to charge interest at the lawful rate of interest established pursuant to Section 55.03(1), F.S., on the
outstanding balance beginning forty (40) calendar days after the date of notification or discovery. Refunds
should be sent to the Commission's Grant Manager and made payable to the "Florida Fish and Wildlife

and the Commission, the Recipient will repay such cost or loss in full to the Commission within thirty (30)
days of the date of notice of the amount owed,unless the Commission agrees, in writing, to an alternative

foreseeable. THE FOREGOING SHALL CONSTITUTE THE RECIPIENT'S SOLE REMEDY OR

suspended or delayed,in whole or in part, due to any of the causes described in this paragraph, after the causes

from Recipient,provided that Recipient grants preferential treatment to the Commission with respect to products
or services subjected to allocation; (2)purchase from other sources (without recourse to and by Recipient for the
related costs and expenses) to replace all or part of the products or services that are the subject of the delay,which
purchases may be deducted from the Agreement quantity; or(3)terminate the Agreement in whole or in part.

Monitoring Guidelines
Florida has enhanced state and local capacity for public boating access through various funding sources
including state and federal grant funds. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission(FWC)
has a responsibility to track and monitor the status of grant activity and items purchased to ensure
compliance with applicable U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS)grant guidance and statutory
regulations. The monitoring process is designed to assess a Grantee/Recipient or Sub-Recipient's
(hereafter collectively referred to as Recipient) compliance with applicable state and federal guidelines.
Monitoring is accomplished utilizing various methods including desk monitoring and on-site visits. There
are two primary areas reviewed during monitoring activities—financial and programmatic monitoring.
Financial monitoring is the review of records associated with the purchase and disposition of property,
projects and contracts.Programmatic monitoring is the observation of project construction,protocols and
other associated records. Various levels of financial and programmatic review may be accomplished
during this process.
Desk monitoring is the review of projects, financial activity and technical assistance between FWC and
the applicant via e-mail and telephone or other electronic means. On-site monitoring are actual visits to
the Recipient agencies by FWC representatives who examine records,procedures and projects.
No Conflict of Interest:
Grant Managers shall complete the Agency `No Conflict of Interest' form at the time they are
assigned/assume responsibility for an agreement. If a conflict exists, the Grant Manager shall notify their
immediate supervisor at the earliest opportunity. The supervisor is responsible to reassign the Agreement
or coordinate with leadership and/or Legal to determine the appropriate resolution.
Frequency of annual monitoring activity
Each year the FWC will conduct monitoring based on a"Risk Assessment". The risk assessment tool is
used to help in determining the priority of Recipients that should be reviewed and the level of monitoring
that should be performed. It is important to note that although a given grant may be closed,it is still
subject to either desk or on-site monitoring for a five (5)year period following closure.
Areas that will be examined may include:
Management and administrative procedures;
Grant folder maintenance;
Accounting system;
Program for obsolescence;
Status of expenditures;
Status of planning, design and engineering activity;
Anticipated projected completion;
Difficulties encountered in completing projects;
Agency NEPA/Section 7/EHP compliance documentation;
Equal Employment Opportunity(EEO Status);
Americans with Disabilities Act(ADA Status);
Procurement Policy
Procurement documents
Subcontractor agreements if applicable
Monitoring Guidelines Rev.2/23/2021 Page 1 of 3
FWC Agreement#: 22028 Attachment C
FWC may request additional monitoring/information if the activity, or lack thereof, generates questions
from the USWFWS region, or FWC leadership. The method of gathering this information will be
determined on a case-by-case basis.
Desk monitoring is an on-going process. Recipients will be required to participate in desk top monitoring
as determined by FWC. This contact will provide an opportunity to identify the need for technical
assistance (TA) and/or a site visit if FWC determines that a Recipient is having difficulty completing their
project.
As difficulties/deficiencies are identified, the respective Recipient will be notified by the program office
via email. Information will include the Recipient agency name,year and project description and the
nature of the issue in question. Many of the issues that arise may be resolved at the Recipient level. Issues
that require further TA will be assisted by FWC grant program staff. Examples of TA include but are not
limited to:
• Eligibility of items or services
• Coordination and partnership with other agencies
• Record Keeping
• Reporting Requirements
• Documentation in support of a Request for Reimbursement
On-Site Monitoring will be conducted by FWC or designated personnel. On-Site Monitoring visits will be
scheduled in advance with the Recipient agency Point of Contact(POC) designated in the funding
agreement.
FWC will also conduct coordinated financial and grant file monitoring. Subject matter experts from other
agencies within the region or state may be called upon to assist in the form of a peer review as needed.
On-Site Monitoring Protocol:
On-Site Monitoring Visits will begin with those Recipients that are currently spending or have completed
spending for that federal fiscal year(FFY) or state fiscal year(SFY), as applicable. Site visits may be
combined when geographically convenient. There is a financial/programmatic on-site monitoring
checklist to assist in the completion of all required tasks.
Site Visit Preparation:
A letter will be sent to the Recipient agency POC outlining the date, time and purpose of the site visit
before the planned arrival date.
The appointment should be confirmed with the Recipient in writing (email is acceptable) and documented
in the Recipient folder.
The physical location of the project if located at an alternate site should be confirmed with a
representative from that location and the address should be documented in the Recipient folder before the
site visit.
On-Site Monitoring Visit:
Once FWC personnel have arrived at the site, an orientation conference will be conducted. During this
time, the purpose of the site visit and the items FWC intends to examine will be identified. All objectives
of the site visit will be explained at this time.
Monitoring Guidelines Rev.2/23/2021 Page 2 of 3
FWC Agreement#: 22028 Attachment C
FWC personnel will review all files and supporting documentation. Once the supporting documentation
has been reviewed, a tour/visual/spot inspection of the project site will be conducted.
All project deliverables selected for review should be visually inspected whenever possible.
Acknowledgement of project funding should be placed in a prominent location in accordance with
applicable agreement provisions.Photographs should be taken of the project site, signage and any other
relevant activity.
If a project deliverable is not available at the time of the site visit, the appropriate documentation must be
provided to account for the project progress.
Other programmatic issues can be discussed at this time such as missing quarterly project progress

li s ructions for Cornpf etiing time 11rne and Effort Refmor iing(if appHcalUe)
According to Federal cost principals employees/contract employees who are paid in full or partially from federal sources must document their time in
the form of personnel activity reports(Time and Effort Reports).
All subrecipient Agreements that contain Administration cost are required to submit a Time and Attendance Report as part of their reimbursement
packet. This includes when Administration/Contract Management are claimed as In-Kind Cost Share(Match).
The Time and Effort Report must account for all activity in which the employee/contract employee is being compensated and not merely the activity
being requested for reimbursement to a specific Funding Agreement.
fio. The report should reflect an after-the-fact distribution of time associated with each activity/project by the employee/contractor.
Subrecipients must use the attached Time and Effort Reporting to account for an employee/contractor actual time by activity/project and must account
for 100%of the time the individual is being compensated from the grant.
Charges for sick time,vacation, holiday and all costs associated with fringe benefits or employee related expenses shall be allocated at proper
percentages.A Recipient/Subrecipient may not charge more hours to a Funding Agreement for such expenses than that Recipient/Subrecipient is
charged for the employee/contract employee compensation. As an example, if a Time and Effort Report shows that he or she spent 8 hours of his or
.° her time on boating access project activity, no more than the corresponding percentage(activity time divided by contracted hours)of his or her fringe
benefit charges may be applied to that Funding Agreement. If that employee/contract employee is paid from multiple boating access projects,fringe
benefit charges may only be applied to each individual project Funding Agreement at the percentage that the employee/contract employee's time is
charged to each individual project Funding Agreement.
Subrecipients are responsible for the proper allocation to Administration charges as they relate to personnel costs. Grant guidance should be used
as a resource to determine the differences and allowability. Supervisors signing the Time and Effort Report are attesting that the report and
distribution of time meets the requirements as stated in grant guidance,and your Funding Agreement.
