Current through Register Vol. 54, No. 12, March 23, 2024

(a) Grant agreement. The approved, signed application for a Program grant shall constitute the grant agreement. The recipient of a Program grant shall sign the application which shall set forth the amount of the grant and other terms and conditions as the Department may reasonably require. Upon completion of all the terms of the agreement, a reimbursement check will be issued in the name of the recipient and mailed to the address indicated on the recipient's approved and signed application.

(b) Default. Any recipient of a Program grant who fails to abide by the terms of the grant agreement or the act or this chapter shall be in default. The Secretary may waive a default after consultation with the Advisory Board in the event of a physical disability suffered by the recipient or as a result of other extenuating circumstances.

(c) Verification. To receive a Program reimbursement payment, a recipient shall, within 2 weeks of the completion of the specific project delineated in the recipient's grant application, submit to the Department a final report which includes a written receipt evidencing the cost of tuition and records or any other pertinent documentation evidencing the grant recipient's attendance and the program agenda. In addition, the final report shall include a narrative report of at least one page but not more than two pages, describing the effectiveness of the project and the experience gained and personal knowledge acquired.

(d) Failure to verify. If a fully completed final report containing the required receipts, records and documenta-tion is not submitted within the 2-week period, the Program grant recipient shall be deemed to have defaulted. The Secretary may direct that no Program grant funds be paid to the defaulting recipient. The Secretary will notify the grant recipient in writing of a default due to the grant recipient's failure to supply a completed final report. The recipient will have 10 days, from the receipt of the written notice to remedy the default. The Secretary may extend the verification deadline if the Secretary determines the grant recipient has made a reasonable effort to verify, but the verification was incomplete, or for extenuating circumstances.
