Listmates:

As you all are no doubt painfully aware, contracts under which costs are incurred for which an applicant seeks FEMA PA reimbursement are subject to 2 CFR Part 200 (Uniform Guidance) procurement requirements. Among these requirements are that a number of federally-required contract provisions must be included in the contracts. Even under the current E/E guidance issued by FEMA for the COVID-19 event, the federal contract provision requirement is still in effect. Have any of your states enacted legislation (or perhaps for those with broad local ordinance authority, an ordinance) incorporating these contracts provisions by reference by operation of law where required and applicable under federal law?

Has anyone looked into CARES II Section 2103? It looks like there is a provision in section 2103 that possibly allows reimbursement for 50% of state unemployment benefits for self-insured plans for municipalities. Just wondering how different states are handling this.

If anyone has examples of how this is working logistically in their state, I would be curious to hear.

It is my understanding this is not limited to cities over 500,000, but it anyone has a different understanding I would be curious to hear that as well.

I was informed by our Department of Labor that it will be automatically be taken off the quarterly reimbursement bill. The reimbursing municipalities will get a bill for only 50% of the cost. The bill will show what the total cost was, the subtraction due to the CARES Act, and then the new total. It is applicable to all reimbursing municipalities regardless of size through December 31, 2020.

Stanley General Counsel astanley@lkm.org<mailto:astanley@lkm.org> 785-354-9565 From: Disasterrelief <disasterrelief-bounces@lists.imla.org<mailto:disasterrelief-bounces@lists.imla.org>> On Behalf Of Houston, Norma Sent: Tuesday, April 21, 2020 12:34 PM To: disasterrelief@lists.imla.org<mailto:disasterrelief@lists.imla.org> Subject: [Disasterrelief] 2 CFR contract provisions Listmates: As you all are no doubt painfully aware, contracts under which costs are incurred for which an applicant seeks FEMA PA reimbursement are subject to 2 CFR Part 200 (Uniform Guidance) procurement requirements. Among these requirements are that a number of federally-required contract provisions must be included in the contracts. Even under the current E/E guidance issued by FEMA for the COVID-19 event, the federal contract provision requirement is still in effect. Have any of your states enacted legislation (or perhaps for those with broad local ordinance authority, an ordinance) incorporating these contracts provisions by reference by operation of law where required and applicable under federal law?
