Supplanting Prohibited Section 252.372, Florida Statutes, states that the monies from the EMPA Trust Fund "may not be used to supplant existing funding." Additionally, Rule 27P-19.003(3), Florida Administrative Code, states: "Funds received from the [EMPA] Trust Fund may not be used to supplant existing funding, nor shall funds from one program under the Trust Fund be used to match funds received from another program under the Trust Fund." II. OTHER CRITICAL INFORMATION A. RULE 27P-19, FLORIDA ADMINISTRATIVE CODE Rule 27P-19.010(11), Florida Administrative Code, states: "Allowable costs shall be determined in accordance with applicable Federal Office of Management and Budget Circulars..." Therefore, unless a specific exception applies, 2 CFR Part 200 Subpart A(Definitions)and Subpart E (Cost Principles)shall apply to this Agreement. Expenses In order to qualify for reimbursement under the terms of this Agreement, an expense incurred by the Recipient must be reasonable and necessary for the successful completion of a task required by this Agreement. If an expense fails to qualify as either reasonable or necessary to successfully compete a task, then the Division shall not provide any reimbursement for that expense. NOTE: This Scope of Work recognizes that each Recipient: • Might be at a different level of preparedness than another Recipient • Operates within a unique geography • Faces unique threats and hazards • Serves a unique population Therefore, what might qualify as reasonable and necessary for one Recipient to successfully complete a task under this Agreement might not qualify as reasonable and necessary for another Recipient to successfully complete a task. Conversely, what might not qualify for one may qualify for another. In order to avoid a "one size fits all" approach, this Agreement provides some level of flexibility. If a unique cost(e.g. equipment not listed on the EMPG AEL)qualifies as reasonable and necessary for the successful completion of a task under this Agreement, and if the Recipient receives permission from the Division prior to incurring that unique cost, then the Division shall reimburse the Recipient for that cost. Performance In order to qualify for reimbursement under the terms of this Agreement, the Recipient's performance must satisfy the minimum level of service required for the successful completion of a task required by this Agreement. If the performance fails to satisfy the minimum level of service, then the Division shall not provide any reimbursement for that performance. B. INDIRECT COSTS Indirect cost is allowable under this program as described in 2 C.F.R. Part 200, including 2 C.F.R. § 200.414. Recipients with a negotiated cost rate agreement that desire to charge indirect costs to an award must provide a copy of their negotiated indirect cost rate agreement at the time of application. Recipients that are not required by 2 C.F.R. Part 200 to have a negotiated indirect cost rate agreement but are required by 2 C.F.R. Part 200 to develop an indirect cost rate proposal must provide a copy of their proposal at time of application. Post-award requests to charge indirect cost will be considered on case-by-case basis and based upon the submission of an agreement or proposal. 39
