Consolidated Ageement -Final Page 9 of 21 (DENR 2948) and shall be kept on file by the State. The "Certification" verifies in writing that total State expenditures reported are valid. Local expenditures are part of the Expenditure report, but are not included in the amount verified in the "Certification." 4. (State/ Federal Revenues} The Department shall submit a monthly report of actual expenditures (State and/or Federal) to the DHHS Controller's Office on the DHHS (Electronic) Spreadsheet (same electronic Spreadsheet DHHS 2949 as referenced in 3.f. above) -all reported in one spreadsheet, but separated here for clarity of instructions. a. The Department shall submit monthly expenditures for all programs via DHHS 2949 (Electronic) Spreadsheet to the DHHS Controller's Office no later than the dates published annually in December for the next calendar year. The schedule reflects a general period of 15-20 days from the end of the reporting month for submission of the DHHS Spreadsheet, based on weekends and holidays, to allow processing time for the payment. Failure to meet the reporting deadline, as published, WII,L result in the exclusion of those expenditures in the OSC E-Payment for that month. Early submission may result in earlier payment to the Department. The Department must submit these monthly expenditure reports, via this DHHS Spreadsheet, consecutively throughout the agreement period. b. Departments shall keep expenditure reporting current and submit their DHHS Form 2949 Spreadsheets per the published DHHS Controller's Office Schedule.

(For example, a grant which ends November 30 will have 6 service/payment months charged against it: 1) June 2004 service month/paid in July; 2) July service month/paid in August; 3) August service month/paid in September; 4) September service month/paid in October; 5) October service month/ paid in November; and 6) November service month/paid either in December, or before the ending date of that grant's settlement period. In this example the remaining 6 service/payment months will be December service month/paid in January through May service month/paid in June, 2005.) For each Grant, the budgetary estimate, funding authorization and agreement addendum will have service/payment month dates listed.
