Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 38, September 20, 2024
A Project amendment is required if a modification to the Project Description, Project Cost Estimate, or extension of the Project performance period (time extension) is needed to accomplish the intent of the original Project Agreement. Prior OHMVR Division approval of adjustments to the Project Cost Estimate is required or the charged costs may be denied. Time extensions for programmatic Project Agreements (e.g., GO, law enforcement, and Education and safety) may be denied. Project amendment requests may be approved when circumstances exist beyond the Grantee's control that would otherwise result in the Project not being completed.
(a) Modifications to the Project Description may include but are not limited to:
(b) Reasons for time extensions may include but are not limited to:
(c) Grantees requesting a Project amendment shall submit to the OHMVR Division in writing the following:
(d) A written request shall be submitted to the OHMVR Division at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the end date specified in the Project Agreement.
(e) Unspent funds that remain at the end of the Project performance period are not in themselves sufficient justification for time extensions.
(f) The OHMVR Division shall review the requested Project amendment and make a determination for approval/disapproval. If the amendment is disapproved, the OHMVR Division will provide written notification to the Grantee with an explanation why the request was denied. If the amendment is approved, the OHMVR Division will process an amendment to the Project Agreement specifying modifications and the revised Project performance period (if applicable). The amendment becomes effective when the OHMVR Division returns the executed amendment to Project Agreement to the Grantee. The OHMVR Division and the Grantee shall retain copies of the amendment to the Project Agreement on file.
