E. FINANCIAL CONSEQUENCES <br />Actions to Address Noncompliance: <br />Non-federal entities receiving financial assistance from FEMA are required to comply with requirements in <br />the terms and conditions of their awards or subawards, including the terms set forth in applicable federal <br />statutes, regulations, NOFOs, policies, and this Manual. Throughout the award lifecycle or even after an <br />award has been closed, FEMA or the pass-through entity may discover potential or actual noncompliance <br />on the part of a recipient or subrecipient. This potential or actual noncompliance may be discovered <br />through routine monitoring, audits, closeout, or reporting from various sources. <br />In the case of any potential or actual noncompliance, the Division may place special conditions on an <br />award per 2 C.F.R. §§ 200.207 and 200.338, the Division may place a hold on funds until the matter is <br />corrected, or additional information is provided per 2 C.F.R. § 200.338, or it may do both. In the event the <br />noncompliance is not able to be corrected by imposing additional conditions or if the recipient or <br />subrecipient refuses to correct the matter, the Division may use other remedies allowed under 2 C.F.R. § <br />200.338. These remedies include actions to disallow costs, recover funds, wholly or partly suspend, or <br />terminate the award, initiate suspension, and debarment proceedings, withhold further federal awards, or <br />take other actions that may be legally available. <br />Reference: (1) FEMA Preparedness Manual Program Actions to Address Noncompliance (pgs. 37- <br />38) and (2) 2 C.F.R. 200 — Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit <br />Requirements for Federal Awards <br />45 <br />
