It is mutually agreed that if the US Congress or the State Legislature fail to appropriate or allocate funds during the current year and/or any subsequent years covered under this RGA do not appropriate sufficient funds for the program, this RGA shall be of no further force and effect. In this event, CALTRANS shall have no liability to pay any funds whatsoever to AGENCY or to furnish any other considerations under this RGA and AGENCY shall not be obligated to perform any provisions of this RGA. b. If funding for any fiscal year is reduced or deleted by US Congress or State Legislature for purposes of this program, CALTRANS shall have the option to either terminate this RGA with no liability occurring to CALTRANS, or offer an RGA Amendment to AGENCY to reflect reduced amount. 15. Payment and Invoicing a. AGENCY, its contractors, subcontractors, and sub -recipients shall establish and maintain an accounting system and records that properly accumulate and segregate incurred Project costs and matching funds by line. The accounting system of AGENCY, its contractors, all subcontractors, and sub -recipients shall conform to Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and any standards specified by the source of funds, to enable the determination of incurred costs at interim points of completion, and to provide support for reimbursement payment vouchers or invoices. b. The method of payment for this RGA will be based on the actual allowable costs that are incurred in accordance with the provisions of this RGA and in the performance of the Approved Grant Application and Amendment(s) to Grant Application (Attachment III). CALTRANS will reimburse AGENCY for expended actual allowable direct costs, and including, but not limited to, labor costs, travel, and contracted consultant services costs incurred by AGENCY in performance of the Project Work. Indirect costs are reimbursable only if the AGENCY has identified the estimated indirect cost rate in Attachment ll and an approved Indirect Cost Allocation Plan or an Indirect Cost Rate Proposal as set forth in Section III —Cost Principles, Item 16d. The total cost shall not exceed the cost reimbursement limitation set forth in Section III --Cost Limitations, Item 11a.
