FFATA PROVISIONS AND INSTRUCTIONS For Compliance With The Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006 (P.L. 109-282) (FFATA) The Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act(FFATA)was signed on September 26, 2006. The FFATA legislation requires information on federal awards (federal financial assistance and expenditures) be made available to the public via a single, searchable website. Federal awards include grants, subgrants, loans, awards, cooperative agreements and other forms of financial assistance as well as contracts, subcontracts, purchase orders, task orders, and delivery orders.The legislation does not require inclusion of individual transactions below $25,000 or credit card transactions before October 1, 2008. However, if an award is initially below this amount yet later increased,the act is triggered. Due to this variability in compliance Subrecipients are required by the Military Department to be familiar with the FFATA requirements and complete this Worksheet for each contract for the State's submission in to the FFATA portal. ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS This contract(subaward) is supported by federal funds, requiring compliance with the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (FFATA or the Transparency Act) and Office of Management and Budget Guidance (OMB). Public Law 109-282 as amended by section 6202(a) of Public Law 110-252 (see 31 U.S.C. 6101 note). By entering into this contract, contractor agrees to provide all applicable reporting information to the Washington Military Department(WMD) required by FFATA and OMB Guidance. The FFATA requires the OMB to establish a publicly available online database (USASpending.gov) containing information about entities that are awarded Federal grants, loans, and contracts. As required by FFATA and OMB Guidance, certain information on the first-tier subawards related to Federal contracts and grants, and the executive compensation of awardees, must be made publicly available. For new Federal grants beginning October 1,2010, if the initial subaward is equal to or greater than $25,000, reporting of the subaward and executive compensation information is required. If the initial subaward is below $25,000 but subsequent grant modifications result in a total subaward equal to or over$25,000,the subaward will be subject to the reporting requirements as of the date the subaward exceeds$25,000. If the initial subaward equals or exceeds$25,000 but funding is subsequently de-obligated such that the total award amount falls below$25,000, the subaward continues to be subject to the reporting requirements of the Transparency Act and OMB Guidance. As a Federal grant subawardee under this contract, your organization is required by FFATA, OMB Guidance and this contract to provide the WMD, as the prime grant awardee, all information required for FFATA compliant reporting by WMD. This includes all applicable subawardee entity information required by FFATA and OMB Guidance, subawardee DUNS number, and relevant executive compensation data, as applicable. Page 2 of 3
