UASI: Any funds retained by the state must be used to directly support the urban area. The state must also obligate funds allocated for nonprofit organizations within 60 days of the award date. Funds not obligated at the expiration of 60 days shall revert back to the state for reassessment for award to alternate nonprofit locations. . MMRS: In states with MMRS jurisdictions, SMs are encouraged to pass 100% of the MMRS program funding allocation directly to their MMRS jurisdiction(s). For MMRS jurisdictions representing multiple states9, each SM involved is also encouraged to pass 100% of the funding to the designated fiduciary/coordinating entity. However, states may retain up to 20% of the MMRS program funding allocation to facilitate strategy assessment and capability integration between the state and MMRS jurisdictions. Any funds retained by the state must be documented in a written agreement between the SM and Chair of the MMRS Steering Committee(s). CCP: There are no minimum pass-through requirements for CCP. However, states are expected to work with county, local, and/or tribal Citizen Corps Councils and to expend funds that support local efforts to educate, train, and involve citizens. If the state chooses to subgrant funds to a local unit of government, the recipient must have an existing Citizen Corps Councilor establish a Citizen Corps Council as a condition of receiving the assistance. EMPG: Each state shall obligate 100% of the total grant program amount to the designated state-level EMA. If the SM is also the EMA, this requirement is automatically met. If the SM is separate, or has separate budget processes, then these funds must be obligated to the EMA within 15 days of the grant award date. State EMAs are encouraged to pass EMPG funds through to local EMAs, as appropriate. Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) Requirements: For any HSGP programs involving pass-through of funds, the state may retain some or all of the local unit of government or urban area's allocation of grant funds for expenditures made by the state on behalf of the local unit of government or urban area only if requested in 8 MMRS subgrantees may be identified, or considered, as entities, departments, or elements of local units of government, such as hospital authorities, coordinating councils, medical centers, educational facilities, etc. 9 The Northern New England MMRS jurisdiction is the only jurisdiction represented by multiple states, and includes New Hampshire, Vermont, and Maine.
