SD DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION GRANT AGREEMENT TERMS AND CONDITIONS1.STANDARDS OF WORK
Grantee agrees to implement the subaward and perform pursuant to the requirements of the Agreement in a manner consistent with that level of care and skill ordinarily exercised by subrecipients currently practicing under similar conditions, particularly in reference to restricted or sponsored programs.
2.ADMINISTRATIVE CONSIDERATIONSWhere policies of Grantee differ from those of the State, such as travel reimbursement, fringe benefits, indirect costs, etc., the policies of the Grantee shall be applicable to cost incurrences under the Agreement provided such policies comply with awarding agency regulations.
3.DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATIONAny confidential information or personally identifiable information (PII) acquired by Grantee during the course of the subaward shall not be disclosed by Grantee to any person, firm, corporation, association, or other entity for any reason or purpose whatsoever without the prior written consent of the State, either during the term of the Agreement or in the event of termination of the Agreement for any reasons whatsoever. Grantee agrees to abide by applicable state regulations regarding confidential information and research standards, as appropriate.
4.MONITORING PLAN AND REPORTINGThe State will monitor Grantee to ensure compliance with program requirements and identify any failures in the administration and performance of the award. The monitoring plan will also serve to identify whether the Grantee needs technical assistance. In addition to program performance, the State will monitor financial performance. Monitoring will be used to document allowable and unallowable costs, time and effort reporting and travel. Monitoring also will be used to follow up on findings identified in an earlier monitoring visit, from document reviews or after an audit to ensure that subrecipient took corrective action. As appropriate, the cooperative audit resolution process may be applied. The monitor plan may include on-site visits, follow-up, document and/or desk reviews, third-party evaluations, virtual monitoring, technical assistance and informal monitoring such as email and telephone interviews. For reporting, the uniform guidance requires the State and Grantee use OMB-approved government-wide standard information collections when providing performance and data in reports.
5.AUDIT AND COMPLIANCEA local government and non profit organization must comply with all state audit requirements, including: 2 CFR Part 200 Subpart F – Audit Requirements; and any other application law or regulation, Audit required. A non-Federal entity that expends $750,000 or more during the non-Federal entity's
fiscal year in Federal awards must have a single or program-specific audit conducted for that year in accordance with the provisions of this part.
Single audit. A non-Federal entity that expends $750,000 or more during the non-Federal entity's fiscal year in Federal awards must have a single audit conducted in accordance with § 200.514 Scope of audit except when it elects to have a program-specific audit conducted in accordance with paragraph (c) of this section.
Program-specific audit election. When an auditee expends Federal awards under only one Federal program (excluding R&D) and the Federal program's statutes, regulations, or the terms and conditions of the Federal award do not require a financial statement audit of the auditee, the auditee may elect to have a program-specific audit conducted in accordance with § 200.507 Program-specific audits. A
Page 9 of 25
program-specific audit may not be elected for R&D unless all of the Federal awards expended were received from the same Federal agency, or the same Federal agency and the same pass-through entity, and that Federal agency, or pass-through entity in the case of a subrecipient, approves in advance a program-specific audit.
Exemption when Federal awards expended are less than $750,000. A non-Federal entity that expends less than $750,000 during the non-Federal entity's fiscal year in Federal awards is exempt from Federal audit requirements for that year, except as noted in § 200.503 Relation to other audit requirements, but records must be available for review or audit by appropriate officials of the Federal agency, pass-through entity, and Government Accountability Office (GAO).
For-profit subrecipient. Since this part does not apply to for-profit subrecipients, the pass-through entity is responsible for establishing requirements, as necessary, to ensure compliance by for-profit subrecipients. The agreement with the for-profit subrecipient should describe applicable compliance requirements and the for-profit subrecipient's compliance responsibility. Methods to ensure compliance for Federal awards made to for-profit subrecipients may include pre-award audits, monitoring during the agreement, and post-award audits.
Pursuant to SDCL 4-11-7.1. A school district shall have financial and compliance audits performed at least every two years. The audits shall be performed in accordance with generally accepted governmental auditing standards. The audits may be done by the Department of Legislative Audit or by a private firm authorized by law to audit the financial records of school districts.

The State has the right to return to audit the program after close-out at any time during the record retention period, and to conduct recovery audits including the recovery of funds, as appropriate.

If for any reason the Legislature fails to appropriate funds or grant expenditure authority, or funds become unavailable by operation of law, this Agreement will be terminated by the State. Termination for any of these reasons is not a default by the State nor does it give rise to a claim against the State.
c. TERMINATION FOR CAUSE: This Agreement may be terminated by the State in the event the Grantee breaches any of the terms or conditions hereof at any time with or without notice. If termination for such a default is effected by the State, any payments due to the Grantee at the time of termination may be adjusted to cover any additional costs to the State because of Grantee’s default.

ownership was purchased, under the award. The USDA FNS reserves a royalty-free, nonexclusive, and irrevocable right to reproduce, publish or otherwise use these materials for federal purposes and to authorize others to do so.
"Federal purposes" include the use of award products in activities or programs undertaken by the Federal Government, in response to a governmental request, or as otherwise required by federal law. However, the Federal Government's use of copyrighted materials is not intended to interfere with or disadvantage the recipient or assignee in the sale and distribution of the award product.”

b. The Agency has the right to:i. Obtain, reproduce, publish or otherwise use the data first produced under an award; and
ii. Authorize others to receive, reproduce, publish, or otherwise use such data for Federal purposes.
c. In addition, in response to a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request for research data relating to published research findings produced under an award that were used by the Federal Government in developing an agency action that has the force and effect of law, the Agency shall request, and the recipient shall provide within a reasonable time, the research data so that they can be made available to the public through the procedures established under the FOIA. If the Agency obtains the research data solely in response to a FOIA request, the Agency may charge the requester a reasonable fee equaling the full incremental cost of obtaining the research data. This fee should reflect costs incurred by the Agency, the recipient, and applicable sub-recipients. This fee is in addition to any fees the agency may assess under the FOIA (5 U.S.C. 552(a)(4)(A)).

Equipment records must be maintained that include the description of the equipment, the serial number or other identification number, the source of equipment, the title holder, the acquisition date, the cost of the equipment, the location, use, and condition of the equipment, and any ultimate disposition data including the

In the event that an award is suspended and corrective action is not taken within 90 days of the suspension effective date, the Agency may issue a notice of termination.

Within 30 days of the termination date, the GRANTEE shall furnish to the Agency a summary of progress achieved under the award, an itemized accounting of charges incurred against award funds and cost sharing prior to the effective date of the suspension or termination, and a separate accounting and justification for any costs that may have been incurred after this date.
