Therefore, should the project not be completed, the Subrecipient shall reimburse said funds

VI. 
FINANCIAL AUDIT/PROGRAMMATIC MONITORING  
The Subrecipient agrees to comply with the record-keeping requirements and other 
requirements of A.R.S. 35-214 and 35-215.

audit conducted in accordance with 2 C.F.R. 200 (Uniform Administrative 
Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards) if the 
Subrecipient expends more than $750,000 from Federal awards in its previous 
fiscal year.  If the Subrecipient has expended more than $750,000 in Federal dollars, 
a copy of the Subrecipient’s single audit or program specific audit report for the 
previous fiscal year and subsequent fiscal years that fall within the period of 
performance is due annually to AZDOHS within nine (9) months of the 
Subrecipient’s fiscal year end.

previous fiscal year and subsequent fiscal years that fall within the period of 
performance must submit to AZDOHS via audits@azdohs.gov, a statement stating

or program specific audit. 
 
4. Subrecipient will be monitored periodically by AZDOHS, both programmatically 
and financially, to ensure that the project goals, objectives, performance 
requirements, timelines, milestone completion, budgets, and other related program

environment, including but not limited to construction of communication towers, 
modification or renovation of existing buildings, structures and facilities, or new 
construction including replacement of facilities, must participate in the Federal Department 
of Homeland Security (DHS)/Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) EHP 
review process. The EHP review process involves the submission of a detailed project 
description that explains the goals and objectives of the proposed project along with 
supporting documentation so that DHS/FEMA may determine whether the proposed 
project has the potential to impact environmental resources and/or historic properties. In 
some cases, DHS/FEMA is also required to consult with other regulatory agencies and the 
public in order to complete the review process. The EHP review process must be completed 
before funds are released to carry out the proposed project. If ground disturbing activities 
occur during project implementation, the Subrecipient must ensure monitoring of ground 
disturbance and if any archeological resources are discovered, the Subrecipient shall 
immediately cease construction in that area and notify FEMA, AZDOHS and the 
appropriate State Historic Preservation Office.  DHS/FEMA will not fund projects that are
