The Recipient may, in its sole discretion,. withhold a portion of the Federal and/or nonfederal share <br />of funding under this Agreement from the Subrecipient if the Recipient reasonably expects that the <br />Subrecipient cannot meet the projected budgeted timeline or that there may be a subsequent <br />determination by FEMA that a previous disbursement of funds under this or any other Agreement with the <br />Subrecipient was improper. <br />Payments under the Public Assistance Alternative Procedures Program (PAAP) are paid as an Advance <br />Payment only if permissible in accordance with 2 C.F.R. § 200.305(b). Advance payments are only <br />permissible if in compliance with 2 C.F.R. § 200.305(b), and PAAP projects are no exception. <br />10. DESIGNATION OF AGENT <br />The Subrecipient must complete Attachment D by designating at least three (3) agents to execute any <br />Requests for Advance or Reimbursement, certifications, or other necessary documentation on behalf of the <br />Subrecipient. <br />After execution of this Agreement, the authorized, primary, and secondary Agent may request changes to <br />contacts via email to the State assigned team. <br />In the event the Subrecipient's contacts have not been updated regularly and all three (3) Agents have <br />separated from the Subrecipient's agency, a designation of authority form will be needed to change <br />contacts. <br />NOTE. This is very important because if contacts are not updated, notifications made from FDEM <br />Grants Management System may not be received and could result in failure to meet time periods to <br />appeal a Federal determination. <br />11.
