The Sub-Grantee is responsible for applying for the Public Assistance Grants (Project Worksheets) by identifying eligible damages, developing a clearly defined scope of work, and providing cost estimates.  This information must then be grouped by the Sub-Grantee in a manner that allows for effective reimbursement tracking during the contracting phase of the recovery.  The Sub-Grantee must properly procure eligible recovery work in accordance with 44 CFR 13.  It is the Sub-Grantee's responsibility to monitor all Grant related work to ensure it meets FEMA Environmental and Historical guidelines as well as strictly differentiate between "Eligible" and "Non-Eligible" work.    All related invoicing and backup documentation as well as all procurement and contract information must be submitted by the Sub-Grantee to the Grantee when requesting reimbursements and stored by the Sub-Grantee for auditing purposes.
