A TRUE COPY CERTIFICATION ON LAST PAGE J.R. SMITH, CLERK "D" by designating at least three agents to execute any Requests for Reimbursement, certifications, or other necessary documentation on behalf of the Sub -Recipient. Attachment D must be completed electronically and submitted via email to rpa.heIp em.myflorida.com. After execution of this Agreement, the authorized, primary, and secondary Agent may request changes to contacts via email to the State assigned team. g. In the event the Sub -Recipient contacts have not been updated regularly and all three (3) Agents have separated from the Sub -Recipient's agency, a designation of authority form will be needed to change contacts. NOTE: This is very important because if contacts are not updated, notifications made from the grants management system may not be received and could result in failure to meet time periods to appeal a Federal determination. h. The Division will review all requests for reimbursement by comparing the documentation provided by the Sub -Recipient in the grants management system against a performance measure, outlined in Attachment B, Scope of Work, Deliverables, and Financial Consequences, that clearly delineates: i. The required minimum acceptable level of service to be performed; and, ii. The criteria for evaluating the successful completion of each deliverable. i. The performance measure required by section 215.971(1)(b), Florida Statutes, remains consistent with the requirement for a "performance goal", which is defined in 2 C.F.R. §200.76 as, "a target level of performance expressed as a tangible, measurable objective, against which actual achievement can be compared." It also remains consistent with the requirement, contained in 2 C.F.R. §200.301, that the Division and the Sub -Recipient "relate financial data to performance accomplishments of the Federal award." j. If authorized by the Federal Awarding Agency, then the Division will reimburse the Sub - Recipient for overtime expenses in accordance with 2 C.F.R. §200.430 ("Compensation—personal services") and 2 C.F.R. §200.431 ("Compensation—fringe benefits"). If authorized by the Federal Awarding Agency, and if the Sub -Recipient seeks reimbursement for overtime expenses for periods when no work is performed due to vacation, holiday, illness, failure of the employer to provide sufficient work, or other similar cause (see 29 U.S.C. §207(e)(2)), then the Division will treat the expense as a fringe benefit. 2 C.F.R. §200.431(a) defines fringe benefits as "allowances and services provided by employers to their employees as compensation in addition to regular salaries and wages." Fringe benefits are allowable under this Agreement as long as the benefits are reasonable and are required by law, Sub -Recipient -Employee agreement, or an established policy of the Sub -Recipient in affect at the time of the disaster event. 2 C.F.R. §200.431(b) provides that the cost of fringe benefits in the form of regular compensation paid to employees during periods of authorized absences from the job, such as for annual leave, family -related leave, sick leave, holidays, court leave, military leave, administrative leave, and other similar benefits, are allowable if all of the following criteria are met: i. They are provided under established written leave policies; ii. The costs are equitably allocated to all related activities, including Federal awards; and, 7
