M&A costs are <br />allowable for both state and local -level EMAs. The state EMA may use up to Eve percent (S%) <br />of the EMPG award for M&A purposes, In addition, local EMAs may retain and use up to five_ <br />percent (5%) of the amount received from the state for local M&A purposes, <br />Indirect Costs <br />Indirect costs are allowable under this program as described in 2 CY R. § 204.414. With the <br />exception of recipients who have never received a negotiated indirect cost rate as described in 2 <br />C.F.R. § 200.4140, recipients must have an approved indirect cost rate agreement with their <br />cognizant Federal agency to charge indirect costs to this award. A copy of the approved rate (a <br />Fully executed, agreement negotiated with the applicant's cognizant Federal agency) is required <br />at the time of application, and must be provided to FEMA before indirect costs are charged to the <br />award. <br />Planning <br />Planning spans all five National Preparedness Goal (the Goal) mission areas and provides a <br />baseline for determining potential threats and hazards, required capabilities, required resources, <br />and establishes a Framework for roles and responsibilities.
