Important information regarding availability of federal funds <br /> Availability of Funds <br /> Governor's Crime Commission (GCC) grants are subject to GCC receiving federal funds awarded by the U.S. <br /> Department of Justice each federal fiscal year. <br /> The federal funding amounts awarded to GCC can change year to year or be eliminated. Therefore,your application <br /> may require additional budget adjustments or reductions to the federal share recommended above based on the <br /> final federal budget and the funding amount awarded to GCC. <br /> Please also be aware that funding from the federal government may be delayed for a variety of reasons. <br /> Project Period of Performance and Reimbursements <br /> If your grant is awarded,the grant award packet will contain the start date and end date for each project known as <br /> the 'Period of Performance' for the project. Because of the changes in the availability of funds noted above, the <br /> Period of Performance start date of your project may also change based on when federal funds are received by the <br /> Governor's Crime Commission. <br /> If your grant is awarded, GCC funds are paid on a reimbursement basis only. Reimbursement requests for approved <br /> costs will only be allowed for expenses that occur on or after the Period of Performance start date of the project. <br /> Reimbursements for activities that occur before the Period of Performance start date of your project will not be <br /> reimbursed. <br /> Mandatory Attendance at the GCC Grant Award Workshops—Fall 2021 <br /> In order for your grant to be awarded,the Project Director, Financial Officer and/or someone from your <br /> organization with fiscal responsibility for the GCC funded project is required to attend one of the scheduled Grant <br /> Award Workshops held in Fall 2021 (in person or remotely). You will be notified of the Grant Award Workshop <br /> dates via email and provided additional information about registration and options for attendance later this <br /> Summer. <br /> New grant award approvals are contingent on completion of all required reports for any current GCC grants. <br /> A final decision to award this grant will not take place until all required reports and documentation are submitted <br /> and reviewed for any of your subrecipient agency's current GCC grants. This includes providing justification for <br /> underutilization of funds or for failure to submit timely reports for your current GCC grants, if requested by GCC. <br /> Finally, your project will not be awarded if the subrecipient agency is on hold in the on-line Grants Enterprise <br /> Management System (GEMS)for any reason. <br />
