PURPOSE. This circular is a re-issuance of guidance (previously"Grant Management <br /> Requirements")for post-award administration and management activities for all applicable <br /> Federal Transit Administration(FTA)federal assistance programs. This revision <br /> incorporates provisions of the Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act(FAST or FAST <br /> Act)programs and the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act(MAP-21) <br /> programs. This circular includes the most current guidance for the federal public <br /> transportation programs as of the date of publication. <br /> This circular revision also incorporates provisions of Department of Transportation(DOT) <br /> regulations,"Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit <br /> Requirements for Federal Awards, 2 CFR part 1201. These regulations incorporate by <br /> reference the Office of Management and Budget(OMB), "Uniform Administrative <br /> Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards,"2 CFR part <br /> 200,which supersedes and streamlines the former OMB Circulars on Uniform <br /> Administrative Guidance,A-102,and A-110, former OMB Circulars on Cost Principles,A- <br /> 21,A-87 and A-122,and former OMB Circulars addressing Single Audit issues,A-133 on <br /> Single Audit Act administration and A-50 on Single Audit Act follow-up. OMB's final <br /> guidance consolidates the guidance previously contained in the aforementioned documents <br /> into a streamlined format that aims to improve both clarity and accessibility. The DOT <br /> adopts this guidance,with a few DOT-specific provisions. <br /> The DOT regulations,2 CFR part 1201, supersede and repeal the requirements of the former <br /> DOT Common Rules, "Uniform Administrative Requirements for Grants and Cooperative <br /> Agreements to State and Local Governments,"former 49 CFR part 18 and"Uniform <br /> Administrative Requirements for Grants and Agreements with Institutions of Higher <br /> Education,Hospitals, and other Non-Profit Organizations),former 49 CFR part 19. <br /> Grant Agreements and Cooperative Agreements awarded before December 26,2014, <br /> however, shall continue to be subject to the former DOT Common Rules,49 CFR parts 18 <br /> and 19, and OMB guidance in effect on the date FTA awarded federal assistance for such <br /> Grant or Cooperative Agreements. <br /> These requirements are intended to assist recipients in administering FTA-funded projects <br /> and in meeting the responsibilities and reporting requirements of FTA Awards. Recipients <br /> have a responsibility to comply with regulatory requirements and to be aware of all pertinent <br /> materials to assist in the management of their federally assisted Awards. <br /> 7 <br />
