PARTI: FEDERAL REQUIREMENTS
This part is applicable if the recipient is a State or local government or a non-profit organization as

In the event the recipient expends $500,000 or more in Federal awards during its fiscal year, the recipient
must have a single or program-specific audit conducted in accordance with the provisions of OMB
Circular A-133, as revised. The recipient agrees to provide a copy of the single audit to BBCBC
submitting an electronic copy to mecontracts@bigbendcbc.org . In the event the recipient expends less
than $500,000 in Federal awards during its fiscal year, the recipient agrees to provide certification to
BBCBC submitting an electronic copy to mecontracts@bigbendcbe.org that a single audit was not
required. In determining the Federal awards expended during its fiscal year, the recipient shall consider
all sources of Federal awards, including Federal resources received from, BBCBC, the Department of
Children & Families, Federal government (direct), other state agencies, and other non-state entities. The
determination of amounts of Federal awards expended should be in accordance with guidelines
established by OMB Circular A-133, as revised. An audit of the recipient conducted by the Auditor
General in accordance with the provisions of OMB Circular A-133, as revised, will meet the requirements

Single Audit Information for Recipients of Recovery Act Funds:
(a) To maximize the transparency and accountability of funds authorized under the American Recovery
and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Pub. L. 111-5) (Recovery Act) as required by Congress and in
accordance with 2 CFR 215.21 ‘‘Uniform Administrative Requirements for Grants and Agreements’ and
OMB Circular A-102 Common Rules provisions, recipients agree to maintain records that identify
adequately the source and application of Recovery Act funds. OMB Circular A-102 is available at
http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/circulars/a102/a102.html .
(b) For recipients covered by the Single Audit Act Amendments of 1996 and OMB Circular A-133,
**Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations,’ recipients agree to separately
identify the expenditures for Federal awards under the Recovery Act on the Schedule of Expenditures of
Federal Awards (SEFA) and the Data Collection Form (SF-SAC) required by OMB Circular A—133.
OMB Circular A-133 is available at http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/circulars/al33/al33.html. This
shall be accomplished by identifying expenditures for Federal awards made under the Recovery Act
separately on the SEFA, and as separate rows under Item 9 of Part III on the SF-SAC by CFDA number,
and inclusion of the prefix ‘‘ARRA-”’ in identifying the name of the Federal program on the SEFA and as
the first characters in Item 9d of Part III on the SF-SAC.
(c) Recipients agree to separately identify to each sub-recipient, and document at the time of sub-award
and at the time of disbursement of funds, the Federal award number, CFDA number, and amount of
Recovery Act funds. When a recipient awards Recovery Act funds for an existing program, the
information furnished to sub-recipients shall distinguish the sub-awards of incremental Recovery Act
funds from regular sub-awards under the existing program.
(d) Recipients agree to require their sub-recipients to include on their SEFA information to specifically
identify Recovery Act funding similar to the requirements for the recipient SEFA described above. This
information is needed to allow the recipient to properly monitor sub-recipient expenditure of ARRA funds
as well as oversight by the Federal awarding agencies, Offices of Inspector General and the Government
Accountability Office.

The recipient agrees to provide a copy of the single audit to the Big Bend Community Based Care at
