d. Travel – Foreign
Funds that are awarded and authorized to carry out an activity under WIOA subtitle B cannot be
used for foreign travel.
e. Travel – Mileage Reimbursement Rates
Pursuant to 2 CFR 200.474(a), all award recipients must have policies and procedures in place
related to travel costs; however, for reimbursement on a mileage basis, this Federal award
cannot be charged more than the maximum allowable mileage reimbursement rates for Federal

Effective/Applicability Rate per
Modes of Transportation Date mile
Privately owned automobile January 1, 2019 $0.58
Privately owned motorcycle January 1, 2019 $0.55
Mileage rates must be checked annually at www.gsa.gov/mileage to ensure compliance.
f. WIOA Infrastructure
WIOA sec. 121(b)(1)(B)and 20 CFR 678.400 require the following programs to be One-Stop
partners: A. WIOA title I programs: Adult, Dislocated Worker, and Youth formula programs; Job
Corps; YouthBuild; Native American programs; National Farmworker Jobs Program (NFJP); B.
Wagner-Peyser Act Employment Service (ES) program authorized under the Wagner-Peyser Act
(29 U.S.C. 49 et seq.), as amended by WIOA title III; C. Senior Community Service Employment
Program (SCSEP) authorized under title V of the Older Americans Act of 1965; D. Trade
Adjustment Assistance (TAA) activities authorized under chapter 2 of title II of the Trade Act of
1974; E. Unemployment Compensation (UC) programs; F. Jobs for Veterans State Grants
(JVSG) programs authorized under chapter 41of title 38, U.S.C.; and G. Reentry Employment
Opportunities (REO) programs (formerly known as Reintegration of Ex-Offenders Program
(RExO) authorized under sec. 212 of the Second Chance Act of 2007 (42 U.S.C. 17532) and WIOA
sec. 169.
With the exception of Native American programs established under WIOA sec. 166, all One-Stop
partner programs including all programs that are funded under title I of WIOA are required to
contribute to the infrastructure costs and certain additional costs of the One-Stop delivery
system in proportion to their use and relative benefits received as required in 20 CFR 678.700
and 678.760. While Native American programs are not required to contribute to infrastructure
costs per WIOA 121(h)(2)(D)(iv), they are strongly encouraged to contribute as stated in TEGL
17-16. The sharing and allocation of infrastructure costs between One-Stop partners is
governed by WIOA sec. 121(h), WIOA’s implementing regulations, and the Federal Cost
5

Principles contained in the Uniform Guidance at 2 CFR part 200and DOL’s exceptions at 2 CFR
part 2900. The Federal Cost Principles state that a partner’s contribution is an allowable,
reasonable, necessary, and allocable cost to the program and is consistent with other legal
requirements.
8. Administrative Requirements
a. Assurances and Certifications
The signed SF-424, Application for Federal Assistance, has been included as an attachment to
this grant. The individual that signed the SF-424 on behalf of the applicant is considered the
Authorized Representative of the applicant. As stated in block 21 of the SF-424 form, the
signature of the Authorized Representative on the SF-424 certifies that the organization is in
compliance with the Assurances and Certifications form SF-424B (available at
http://apply07.grants.gov/apply/forms/sample/SF424B-V1.1.pdf). You do not need to submit
the SF-424B form separately.
b. Audits
Organization-wide or program-specific audits shall be performed in accordance with Subpart F,
the Audit Requirements of the Uniform Guidance which apply to audits for fiscal years beginning
on or after December 26, 2014. DOL awards recipients including for-profit and foreign entities
that expend $750,000 or more in a year from any Federal awards must have an audit
conducted for that year in accordance with the requirements contained in 2 CFR 200.501.
OMB’s approved exception at 2 CFR 2900.2 expands the definition of ‘non-Federal entity’ to
include for-profit entities and foreign entities. For-profit and foreign entities that are recipients
or subrecipients of a DOL award must adhere to the Uniform Guidance at 2 CFR 200.
c. Changes in Micro-purchase and Simplified Acquisition Thresholds
The Office of Management and Budget memorandum (M-18-18), issued on June 20, 2018,
increased the threshold for micro-purchases under Federal financial assistance awards from
$3,500 to $10,000 and the threshold for simplified acquisitions under Federal financial
assistance awards from $100,000 to $250,000. Please note that these two threshold increases
were effective for all Employment and Training (ETA) grantees as of October 1, 2018. All ETA
grantees should carefully review the above-referenced memorandum and make any necessary
updates to their financial and administrative policies, procedures and systems as a result of
these threshold increases.
d. Closeout/Final Year Requirements
At the end of the grant period, the award recipient will be required to close the grant with the
ETA. As the award recipient, your organization will be notified approximately 15 days prior to
the end of the period of performance that the closeout process will begin once the grant ends.
The information concerning the recipient’s responsibilities at closeout may be found at 2 CFR
200.343. During the closeout process, the grantee must be able to provide documentation for
all direct and indirect costs that are incurred. For instance, if an organization is claiming indirect
costs, the documentation that is required is a Negotiated Indirect Cost Rate Agreement or Cost
Allocation Plan issued by the grantee’s Federal cognizant agency. Documentation for those
approved to utilize a de minimis rate for indirect costs is demonstrated through the grant
6

agreement. Not having documentation for direct or indirect costs will result in costs being
disallowed and subject to debt collection. The only liquidation that can occur during closeout is
the liquidation of accrued expenditures (NOT obligations) for goods and/or services received
during the grant period (2 CFR 2900.15).
e. Equipment
The requirmemt that grant recipients obtain prior approval from the Federal Grantor agency for
all purchases of equipment (as described in 2 CFR 200.439) is waived in accordance with 2 CFR
200.308(c)(4) and 20 CFR Part 683.200, and approval authority is delegated to the Governor for
programs funded under sec. 127 or sec. 132 of WIOA or under the Wagner-Peyser Act.
Notwithstanding this waiver, the Grantor reserves the right to reimpose the requirement of
prior approval by the Grantor, after providing advance notice to the State (Grantee).

g. Intellectual Property Rights
The Federal Government reserves a paid-up, nonexclusive and irrevocable license to reproduce,
publish or otherwise use, and to authorize others to use for federal purposes: i) the copyright in
all products developed under the grant, including a subgrant or contract under the grant or
subgrant; and ii) any rights of copyright to which the recipient, subrecipient or a contractor
purchases ownership under an award (including but not limited to curricula, training models,
technical assistance products, and any related materials). Such uses include, but are not limited
to, the right to modify and distribute such products worldwide by any means, electronically or
9

otherwise. Federal funds may not be used to pay any royalty or license fee for use of a
copyrighted work, or the cost of acquiring by purchase a copyright in a work, where the
Department has a license or rights of free use in such work, although they may be used to pay
costs for obtaining a copy which is limited to the developer/seller costs of copying and shipping.
If revenues are generated by selling products developed with grant funds, including intellectual
property, these revenues are considered as program income. Therefore, program income must
be used in accordance with the provisions of this grant award and 2 CFR 200.307.
If applicable, the following needs to be on all products developed in whole or in part with grant
funds:
“This workforce product was funded by a grant awarded by the U.S. Department
of Labor’s Employment and Training Administration. The product was created
by the recipient and does not necessarily reflect the official position of the U.S.
Department of Labor. The Department of Labor makes no guarantees,
warranties, or assurances of any kind, express or implied, with respect to such
information, including any information on linked sites and including, but not
limited to, accuracy of the information or its completeness, timeliness,
usefulness, adequacy, continued availability, or ownership. This product is
copyrighted by the institution that created it.”
h. Pay for Performance Contract Strategies
Pay for Performance (PFP) contract strategies seek to maximize the likelihood that the Federal
government pays only for services that are demonstrably effective, and secures performance
results at a lower cost. The Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) has authorized
PFP as a discretionary activity in WIOA Title I Adult, Dislocated Worker, and Youth programs:
WIOA, Public Law No. 113-128, enacted July 22, 2015, available at
https://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/PLAW-113publ128/pdf/PLAW-113publ128.pdf, Sections 3(47);
116(d)(2)(K), which references 116(b)(2)(A); 116(d)(6)(D); 116(h); 128(b); 133(b); 129(c)(2);
134(a)(3)(A)(xiv), which references 134(d)(1)(A)(iii); 134(c)(3) and 134(c)(3)(G)(ii)(VI)
specifically; and 189(g)(2)(D)
A state may request no more than 10 percent of the total local adult and dislocated worker
allocations be reserved and used on the implementation of WIOA PFP contract strategies for
adult training services described in sec. 134(c)(3) of WIOA. No more than 10 percent of the local
youth allocation can be reserved and used on the implementation of WIOA PFP contract
strategies for youth training services and other activities described in sec. 129(c)(2) of WIOA.
Section 189(g)(2)(D) of WIOA authorizes funds used for WIOA PFP contract strategies are
available until expended.
A forthcoming Training and Employment Guidance Letter (TEGL) will provide information and
procedural requirements on the implementation of PFP Contract Strategies using the WIOA
formula funding streams. After the PFP TEGL is published, this grant will be modified to
incorporate the PFP Federal Award Terms, which would become effective when a state has
received approval of a grant modification request to implement PFP.
10

i. Personally Identifiable Information
Award recipients must recognize and safeguard personally identifiable information (PII) except
where disclosure is allowed by prior written approval of the Grant Officer or by court order.
Award recipients must meet the requirements in Training and Employment Guidance letter
(TEGL) 39-11, Guidance on the Handling and Protection of Personally Identifiable Information
(PII)), found at http://wdr.doleta.gov/directives/corr_doc.cfm?DOCN=7872.
j. Pre-Award
All costs incurred by the award recipient prior to the start date specified in the award issued by
the Department are incurred at the recipient’s own expense.
k. Procurement
The Uniform Guidance (2 CFR 200.317) require States (as defined at 2 CFR 200.90) to follow the
same procurement policies and procedures it uses for non-Federal funds. The state will comply
with 200.322 Procurement of recovered materials and ensure that every purchase orders or
other contract includes any clauses required by section 200.326 Contract provisions. Award
recipients must also follow the requirements regarding the competitive award of One-Stop
Operators in the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act at WIOA Sec. 121(d) and sec. 123.
l. Program Income
The “Addition” method as described in 2 CFR 200.307 must be used in allocating any program
income generated for this grant award. Award recipients must expend all program income prior
to drawing down additional funds as required at 2 CFR 200.305(b) (5) and 2 CFR 200.307(e). Any
program income found remaining at the end of period of performance must be returned to the
ETA. In addition, recipients must report program income on the quarterly financial report using
ETA-9130 form.
m. Publicity
No funds provided under this grant shall be used for publicity or propaganda purposes, for the
preparation, distribution or use of any kit, pamphlet, booklet, publication, radio, television or
film presentation designed to support or defeat legislation pending before the Congress or any
state or local legislature or legislative body, except in presentation to the Congress or any state
or local legislature itself, or designed to support or defeat any proposed or pending regulation,
administrative action, or order issued by the executive branch of any state or local government,
except in presentation to the executive branch of any state or local government itself. Nor shall
grant funds be used to pay the salary or expenses of any recipient or agent acting for such
recipient, related to any activity designed to influence the enactment of legislation,
appropriations, regulation, administrative action, or Executive Order proposed or pending
before the Congress, or any state government, state legislature, or local legislative body other
than for normal and recognized executive-legislative relationships or participation by an agency
or officer of a state, local, or tribal government in policymaking and administrative processes
within the executive branch of that government.

n. Recipient Integrity and Performance Matters
1. If the total value of your currently active grants, cooperative agreements, and procurement
contracts from all Federal awarding agencies exceeds $10,000,000 for any period of time
during the period of performance of this Federal award, then you as the award recipient
during that period of time must maintain the currency of information reported to the
System for Award Management (SAM) that is made available in the designated integrity and
performance system (currently the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information
System (FAPIIS)) about civil, criminal, or administrative proceedings described in paragraph
2 of this award term and condition. This is a statutory requirement under section 872 of
Public Law 110-417, as amended (41 U.S.C. 2313). As required by section 3010 of Public Law

Appropriatons Act, 2019 (P.L. 115-245)
a. Fair Labor Standards Act Amendment for Major Disasters
The Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (“FLSA”) will apply as if the following language was added

and are applied for a period of two years afterwards. The language is as follows:
15

‘‘(s)(1) The provisions of this section [maximum hours worked] shall not apply for a
period of 2 years after the occurrence of a major disaster to any employee—
‘‘(A) employed to adjust or evaluate claims resulting from or relating to such major
disaster, by an employer not engaged, directly or through an affiliate, in underwriting,
selling, or marketing property, casualty, or liability insurance policies or contracts;
‘‘(B) who receives from such employer on average weekly compensation of not less than
$591.00 per week or any minimum weekly amount established by the Secretary,
whichever is greater, for the number of weeks such employee is engaged in any of the
activities described in subparagraph (C); and ‘‘(C) whose duties include any of the

‘‘(iv) negotiating settlements; or

Federal funds may not be used to enter into or renew a contract which includes a provision for
prescription drug coverage unless the contract also includes a provision for contraceptive
coverage. This requirement does not apply to contracts with 1) the religious plans Personal
Care’s HMO and OSF HealthPlans, Inc. and 2) any existing or future plan if the carrier for the
plan objects to such coverage on the basis of religious beliefs.
In implementing this section, any plan that enters into or renews a contract may not subject any
individual to discrimination on the basis that the individual refuses to prescribe or otherwise
provide for contraceptives because such activities would be contrary to the individuals’ religious
16

beliefs or moral convictions. Nothing in this term shall be construed to require coverage of
abortion or abortion related services.
c. Privacy Act
No funds can be used in contravention of the 5 USC 552a (Privacy Act) or regulations
implementing the Privacy Act.
d. Prohibition on Contracting with Corporations with Felony Criminal
Convictions

cooperative agreement with, make a grant to, or provide a loan or loan guarantee to, any
corporation that was convicted of a felony criminal violation under any Federal law within the
preceding 24 months.
e. Prohibition on Contracting with Corporations with Unpaid Tax
Liabilities
The recipient may not knowingly enter into a contract, memorandum of understanding, or
cooperative agreement with, make a grant to, or provide a loan or loan guarantee to, any
corporation that has any unpaid Federal tax liability that has been assessed, for which all judicial
and administrative remedies have been exhausted or have lapsed, and that is not being paid in a
timely manner pursuant to an agreement with the authority responsible for collecting the tax
liability.
f. Prohibition on Procuring Goods Obtained Through Child Labor

manufactured, or harvested or services rendered, in whole or in part, by forced or indentured
child labor in industries and host countries identified by the DOL prior to December 18, 2015.

waste, fraud, or abuse to a designated investigative or law enforcement representative of a
Federal department or agency authorized to receive such information.
17

i. Requirement for Blocking Pornography

the case where a woman suffers from a physical disorder, physical injury, including life-
endangering physical conditions caused by or arising from the pregnancy itself that would, as
certified by a physician, place the women in danger of death unless and abortion is performed.
This restriction does not prohibit any non-Federal entity from providing health benefits coverage
for abortions when all funds for that specific benefit do no come from a Federal source.
Additionally, no funds made available through this award may be provided to a State or local
government if such government subjects any institutional or individual health care entity to
discrimination on the basis that the health care entity does not provide, pay for, provide
coverage of, or refer for abortions.
l. Restriction on Lobbying/Advocacy
No federal funds may be used by a grant recipient, other than for normal and recognized
executive-legislative relationships, to engage in lobbying or advocacy activities (including
publicity or propaganda purposes or for the preparation of any publication or electronic
communication) designed to support or defeat the enactment of federal, state, or local
legislation, regulation, appropriations, order, or other administrative action, except in

officer of a State, local or tribal government in policymaking and administrative processes within
the executive branch of that government.
m. Restriction on the Promotion of Drug Legalization

Level II salary may change yearly and is located on the OPM.gov website
(http://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/pay-leave/salaries-wages/2016/executive-senior-
level ). The salary and bonus limitation does not apply to contractors (vendors) providing goods
and services as defined in 2 CFR 200.330. Where States are recipients of such funds, States may
establish a lower limit for salaries and bonuses of those receiving salaries and bonuses from
subrecipients, taking into account factors including the relative cost-of-living in the State, the
compensation levels for comparable State or local government employees, and the size of the
organizations that administer Federal programs involved including Employment and Training
Administration programs. See Training and Employment Guidance Letter No. 5-06 for further
clarification, available at http://wdr.doleta.gov/directives/corr_doc.cfm?DOCN=2262

The Jobs for Veterans Act (Public Law 107-288) requires recipients to provide priority service to
veterans and spouses of certain veterans for the receipt of employment, training, and

The regulations implementing this priority of service can be found at 20 CFR part 1010. In
circumstances where a grant recipient must choose between two qualified candidates for a
service, one of whom is a veteran or eligible spouse, the veterans priority of service provisions
require that the grant recipient give the veteran or eligible spouse priority of service by first
