<br />Section 1 ‒ Overview | 2024 <br />Grants Management <br />Memoranda <br />Cal OES issues Grant Management Memoranda (GMMs) <br />which provide additional information and requirements <br />regarding EMPG funds. <br />Eligible Subrecipients <br />Tribal Allocations <br />Eligible Applicants, referred to as Subrecipients, include <br />Counties/Operational Areas (OAs), and federally- <br />recognized tribes located in California. <br />The NOFO strongly encourages Cal OES to provide EMPG <br />funds directly to tribes in California. To implement this <br />requirement, a special Competitive Funding Opportunity <br />will be issued to California’s federally-recognized tribes. All <br />Subrecipients are encouraged to coordinate with tribal <br />governments to ensure that tribal needs are considered in <br />their grant applications. <br />Subrecipient <br />Allocations <br />FY 2024 EMPG Subrecipient final allocations are included <br />in Attachment A. <br />Supplanting Grant funds must be used to supplement existing funds, <br />not replace (supplant) funds that have been <br />appropriated for the same purpose. Subrecipients may be <br />required to provide supporting documentation that <br />certifies a reduction in non-federal resources occurred for <br />reasons other than the receipt or expected receipt of <br />federal funds. Supplanting will result in the disallowance of <br />any activity associated with this improper use of federal <br />grant funds. <br />Public/Private <br />Organizations <br />Subrecipients may contract with any other public or private <br />organizations to perform eligible activities on approved <br />EMPG projects. <br />Debarred/ <br />Suspended Parties <br />Subrecipients must not make or permit any award <br />(subaward or contract) at any tier, to any party, that is <br />debarred, suspended, or otherwise excluded from, or <br />ineligible for, participation in federal assistance programs. <br />Subrecipients must obtain documentation of eligibility prior <br />to making any subaward or contract funded by EMPG <br />funds, and must be prepared to present supporting <br />documentation to monitors/auditors. <br />3
