60-Day Federal Register Notice

Responses: 30,496.

Burden Hours: 30,496.
Abstract: In response to grant
monitors need for a better reporting
mechanism for grantee budgets, the G5
team developed a new electronic budget
form for grantees to complete. This new
electronic form requires grantees to
detail the budget categories from which
they are expending funds in order for
Department grant monitors to track
more carefully the drawdowns and
financial management systems of
grantees. Although this form may be
used by all grantees, at this time only
grantees on cost reimbursement or route
payment status will be required to use
this form when reporting their budget,
requesting funds, and accessing funds.
Current Department regulations
sections 74.20–74.28 and 74.50–74.53
address the financial management and
reporting requirements of grantees. The
new form developed in G5 serves as the
mechanism for grantees to report
expenditures and track their spending
in order to ensure compliance with
Department regulations. The currently
used budget form, the SF 524, is not
comprehensive enough to meet the
needs of grant monitors to efficiently
and effectively monitor this sub-set of
grantees. This new data collection will
enhance the ability of grant monitors to
track the budgeting of grantees and the
management of their funds.
