Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 38, September 20, 2024

(a) DEO shall issue an advance payment, if requested in writing, to a contractor in an amount not to exceed twenty-five (25) percent of the contractor's total award for each component contained in the contract.

(b) In the event a contract award is amended to increase the total dollar amount, a subsequent advance payment not to exceed twenty-five (25) percent of the increased amount may be authorized by DEO, if a contractor requests an advance payment in writing. The need for an additional advance payment shall be based upon an analysis of contractor's documented cash flow requirements as recorded on monthly reports.

(c) A contractor shall submit a monthly invoice to DEO based on a fixed fee or an actual cost/earned reimbursement basis, as specified in the contract, for LIHEAP weatherization services performed.

(1) Payment under a fixed fee contract shall be equivalent to the value of allowable activities performed at the rate stated in the contract. Any excess income generated as a result of actual costs being less than the fixed rate shall be used by the contractor for any valid low-income energy assistance/weatherization activity, in accordance with LIHEAP statutory and regulatory limits on expenditures. The allowable period for expenditure of the excess income shall be the same as that for expenditure of program income.

(2) Payment under an actual cost/earned reimbursement contract shall be equivalent to contractor's actual allowable expenditures provided that, no later than the termination date of the contract, this amount does not exceed the value of allowable activities performed as stated in the contract.

(d) A contractor shall submit a monthly invoice to DEO prepared on an actual cash expenditure basis for ECIP services performed.

(e) Payments to a contractor shall be processed through the State Controller's Office and shall be contingent upon receipt by DEO of all monthly reports required by the contract.
