City of Santa Ana Master Agreement No. 64AO274 Page 6 of 26 TCR interest earnings may be spent on the PROJECT. Interest earned shall be recorded and documented from the time the TCR funds are first deposited in RECIPIENT's account until all the approved TCR advance funds have been expended or returned to STATE together with all accrued interest. Interest earned shall be reported to STATE's Project Coordinator on an annual basis and upon the final PROJECT payment when interest earnings, overpayments, and unexpended advanced TCR funds shall be returned to STATE no later than thirty (30) days after PROJECT completion or termination of the PROGRAM SUPPLEMENT, whichever is first in time. (4) Advanced funds are to be expended only as indicated in the approved TCR Application. RECIPIENT must be able to document the expenditures/disbursement of funds advanced to only pay for actual allowable PROJECT costs incurred. (5) Except as expressly allowed hereinbelow, non-TCR funds and TCR project funds not authorized for advance payment can only be released by STATE as reimbursement of actual allowable PROJECT costs already incurred and paid for by RECIPIENT no earlier than the effective date of this AGREEMENT and not incurred beyond the AGREEMENT/PROGRAM SUPPLEMENT Termination Date. (6) Where advance payments are authorized in a PROGRAM SUPPLEMENT, RECIPIENT must report and document the expenditure/disbursement of funds advanced to pay for actual eligible PROJECT costs incurred, at least quarterly, using a Progress Payment Voucher to be approved by STATE's District Project Administrator. C. Expedited Payments Should RECIPIENT have a valid Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for "Expedited Payment" on file with STATE's Accounting Service Center, RECIPIENT will, not more frequently than as authorized by that MOU, prepare and submit to STATE an Expedited Payment Invoice for reimbursements that are consistent with that MOU, this AGREEMENT, and the applicable PROGRAM SUPPLEMENT. Expedited Payments are subject to policies established in the Caltrans Accounting Manual. One time payments and final payments eligible for expedited pay pursuant to this Section will have ten percent (10%) of each invoice amount withheld until PROJECT completion and STATE has evaluated RECIPIENT's performance and made a determination that all requirements assumed under this AGREEMENT and the relevant PROGRAM SUPPLEMENT have been satisfactorily fulfilled by RECIPIENT. D. Advance Expenditure of Local Funds Government Code section 14529.17 (AB 872) allows public agencies to expend their own funds on certain programmed projects prior to the CTC's allocation of funds, and, upon receipt of CTC approval, to then seek reimbursement for those allowable prior expenditures following execution of a PROGRAM SUPPLEMENT wherein STATE acknowledges and accepts those statutorily authorized prior expenditures as a credit towards a required RECIPIENT match, (if any) or as eligible PROJECT expenditures for reimbursement.
