ARRA EXHIBIT A <br />(Standard Agreement) <br />SCOPE OF WORK: AMERICAN RECOVERY AND REINVESTMENT ACT OF 2009 <br />ARRA PROVISIONS <br />The Community Services Block Grant has been established, funded and administered <br />under the provisions of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 <br />("ARRA"), and is subject to the guidance, directives and applicable laws and regulations <br />of the Federal Government and the State of California.
