OFFICE OF THE FLORIDA ATTORNEY GENERAL VOCA 2017-2018 Organization: Indian River County Sheriffs Office Grant No.: VOCA-2017-Indian River County Sheri -00510 Standard Assurances 25. The recipient agrees to comply with applicable requirements to report first-tier subawards of $25,000 or more and, in certain circumstances, to report the names and total compensation of the five most highly compensated executives of the recipient and first-tier subrecipients of award funds. Such data will be submitted to the FFATA Subaward Reporting System (FSRS). The details of recipient obligations, which derive from the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006 (FFATA), are posted on the Office of Justice Programs web site at www.ojp.gov/funding/ffata.htm (Award condition: Reporting Subawards and Executive Compensation), and are incorporated by reference here. This condition, and its reporting requirement, does not apply to grant awards made to an individual who received the award as a natural person (i.e., unrelated to any business or non-profit organization that he or she may own or operate in his or her name). 26. The recipient understands and agrees that it has a responsibility to monitor its subrecipients' compliance with applicable federal civil rights laws. The recipient agrees to submit written Methods of Administration (MOA) for ensuring subrecipients' compliance to the OJP's Office for Civil Rights at Civil RiQhtsMOAeusdoi.aov within 90 days of receiving the grant award, and to make supporting documentation available for review upon request by OJP or any other authorized persons. The required elements of the MOA are set forth at www.oip.usdoi.gov/funding/other reguirements.htm. under the heading, "Civil Rights Compliance Specific to State Administering Agencies." 27. The recipient agrees to submit (and, as necessary, require sub -recipients to submit) performance reports on the performance metrics identified by OVC, and in the time and manner required by OVC. This information on the activities supported by the award funding will assist in assessing the effects that VOCA Victim Assistance funds have had on services to crime victims within the jurisdiction. Beginning October 1, 2015, the recipient agrees to submit (and, as necessary, require sub -recipients to submit) such information quarterly. 28. The recipient must require all non-profit sub -recipients of VOCA Assistance funding under this award to make their financial statements available online (either on the recipient's, the sub -recipient's, or another publicly available website). OVC will consider sub -recipient organizations that have Federal 501(c)(3) tax status as in compliance with this requirement, with no further action needed, to the extent that such organization files IRS Form 990 or similar tax document (e g , 990 -EZ), as several sources already provide searchable online databases of such financial statements. 29. The recipient must require all non-profit sub -recipients of VOCA Assistance funding under this award to certify their non-profit status. Sub -recipients may certify their non-profit status by submitting a statement to the recipient (to be placed in the grant file) affirmatively asserting that the sub -recipient is a non-profit organization, and indicating that it has on file, and available upon audit, either —1) a copy of the recipient's 501(c)(3) designation letter; 2) a letter from the recipient's state/territory taxing body or state/territory attorney general stating that the recipient is a non-profit organization operating within the state/territory; or 3) a copy of the recipient's state/territory certificate of incorporation that substantiates its non-profit status.
