SAM sends notifications to the registered user via email 60, 30, and 15 days prior to expiration of the SAM registration for the Entity. SAM registration may lapse due to inactivity. To update or renew your Entity record(s) in SAM you will need to create a SAM User Account and link it to your migrated Entity records. If you need assistance registering, please go to SAM. go or call 866 - 606 -8220. FEMA cannot assist applicants with questions related to registering in SAM or obtaining a current CAGE code. Authorized Organizational Representative The next step in the registration process is creating a username and password with Grants.gov to become an Authorized Organizational Representative (AOR). AORs will need the DUNS number of the organization for which they will be submitting applications to complete this process.

AOR Authorization After creating a profile on Grants.gov, the E -Biz 'Point of Contact (E -Biz POC), a representative from your organization who is the contact listed for SAM, will receive an email to grant the AOR permission to submit applications on behalf of their organization. The E -Biz POC will then log in to Grants.gov and approve an applicant as the AOR, thereby giving him or her permission to submit applications. To learn more about AOR Authorization visit: http://www rQ ants.gov/ web /Qr ants / applicants /organization - registration /step- 4 -aor- authorization.html. To track an AOR status visit: ht�e / /www grants zov/ web /grants/ applicants / organization- re2istrcitionlsten-5- tracic- aor-status.html. Applicants are encouraged to register early. The registration process can take four weeks or more to be completed. Therefore, registration should be done in sufficient time to ensure it does not impact your ability to meet required submission deadlines. After you have been approved as an AOR, you will be able to submit your application online. Electronic Signature Applications submitted through Grants.gov constitute a submission as electronically signed applications. The registration and account creation with Grants.gov with E -Biz POC approval establishes an AOR. When you submit the application through Grants.gov, the name of your AOR on file will be inserted into the signature line of the application. Applicants must register the individual who is able to make legally binding commitments for the applicant organization as the AOR; this step often is overlooked and it is crucial for valid submissions. FEMA may not make an EMPG award to an applicant until the applicant has complied with all applicable DUNS and SAM requirements and, if an applicant has not fully complied with the requirements by the time FEMA is ready to make an award, FEMA 10 FY 2015 EMPG Program 55B -18
