such payments shall be limited to the amount remaining of such Contract Funds. If
State, federal or other funds are not appropriated, or otherwise become unavailable to
fund this Contract, the State may, upon written notice, terminate this Contract, in
whole or in part, without incurring further liability. The State shall, however, remain
obligated to pay for Services and Goods that are delivered and accepted prior to the

because of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. The contractor will take

24, 1965, and of the rules, regulations, and relevant orders of the Secretary of Labor.

provisions including sanctions for noncompliance: Provided, however, that in the event
the contractor becomes involved in, or is threatened with, litigation with a subcontractor
or vendor as a result of such direction, the contractor may request the United States to
enter into such litigation to protect the interests of the United States.”
ii. 4.2 Davis-Bacon Act. Davis-Bacon Act, as amended (40 U.S.C. 3141-3148). When required by
Federal program legislation, all prime construction contracts in excess of $2,000 awarded by non-
Federal entities must include a provision for compliance with the Davis-Bacon Act (40 U.S.C. 3141-
3144, and 3146-3148) as supplemented by Department of Labor regulations (29 CFR Part 5, “Labor
Standards Provisions Applicable to Contracts Covering Federally Financed and Assisted
Construction”). In accordance with the statute, contractors must be required to pay wages to laborers
and mechanics at a rate not less than the prevailing wages specified in a wage determination made by
the Secretary of Labor. In addition, contractors must be required to pay wages not less than once a
week. The non-Federal entity must place a copy of the current prevailing wage determination issued
by the Department of Labor in each solicitation. The decision to award a contract or subcontract must
be conditioned upon the acceptance of the wage determination. The non-Federal entity must report all
suspected or reported violations to the Federal awarding agency. The contracts must also include a
provision for compliance with the Copeland “Anti-Kickback” Act (40 U.S.C. 3145), as supplemented
by Department of Labor regulations (29 CFR Part 3, “Contractors and Subcontractors on Public
Building or Public Work Financed in Whole or in Part by Loans or Grants from the United States”).
The Act provides that each contractor or Subrecipient must be prohibited from inducing, by any
means, any person employed in the construction, completion, or repair of public work, to give up any
part of the compensation to which he or she is otherwise entitled. The non-Federal entity must report
all suspected or reported violations to the Federal awarding agency.
iii. Rights to Inventions Made Under a Contract or Agreement. If the Federal Award meets the definition
of “funding agreement” under 37 CFR §401.2 (a) and Subrecipient wishes to enter into a contract
with a small business firm or nonprofit organization regarding the substitution of parties, assignment
or performance of experimental, developmental, or research work under that “funding agreement,”
Subrecipient must comply with the requirements of 37 CFR Part 401, “Rights to Inventions Made by
Nonprofit Organizations and Small Business Firms Under Government Grants, Contracts and
Cooperative Agreements,” and any implementing regulations issued by the awarding agency.
iv. Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7401-7671q.) and the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (33 U.S.C.
1251-1387), as amended. Contracts and subgrants of amounts in excess of $150,000 must contain a
provision that requires the non-Federal award to agree to comply with all applicable standards, orders
or regulations issued pursuant to the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7401-7671q) and the Federal Water
Pollution Control Act as amended (33 U.S.C. 1251-1387). Violations must be reported to the Federal
awarding agency and the Regional Office of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
v. Debarment and Suspension (Executive Orders 12549 and 12689). A contract award (see 2 CFR
180.220) must not be made to parties listed on the government wide exclusions in the System for
Award Management (SAM), in accordance with the OMB guidelines at 2 CFR 180 that implement
Executive Orders 12549 (3 CFR part 1986 Comp., p. 189) and 12689 (3 CFR part 1989 Comp., p.
235), “Debarment and Suspension.” SAM Exclusions contains the names of parties debarred,
suspended, or otherwise excluded by agencies, as well as parties declared ineligible under statutory or
regulatory authority other than Executive Order 12549.
vi. Byrd Anti-Lobbying Amendment (31 U.S.C. 1352). Contractors that apply or bid for an award
exceeding $100,000 must file the required certification. Each tier certifies to the tier above that it will
not and has not used Federal appropriated funds to pay any person or organization for influencing or
attempting to influence an officer or employee of any agency, a member of Congress, officer or
employee of Congress, or an employee of a member of Congress in connection with obtaining any
Federal contract, grant or any other award covered by 31 U.S.C.1352. Each tier must also disclose

12) Compliance. Subrecipient shall comply with all applicable provisions of The Office of Management and
Budget Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards
(Uniform Guidance), including but not limited to these Supplemental Provisions for Federal Awards. Any
revisions to such provisions automatically shall become a part of these Supplemental Provisions, without the
necessity of either party executing any further instrument. CDHS may provide written notification to
Subrecipient of such revisions, but such notice shall not be a condition precedent to the effectiveness of such
revisions.
13) Procurement Procedures. Subrecipient shall use its own documented procurement procedures which reflect
applicable State, local, and Tribal laws and regulations, provided that the procurements conform to applicable
Federal law and the standards identified in the Uniform Guidance, including without limitation, §§200.318
through 200.326 thereof.
14) Certifications. Unless prohibited by Federal statutes or regulations, CDHS may require Subrecipient to
submit certifications and representations required by Federal statutes or regulations on an annual basis (2 CFR
§200.208). Submission may be required more frequently if Subrecipient fails to meet a requirement of the
Federal award. Subrecipient shall certify in writing to CDHS at the end of the Contract that the project or
activity was completed or the level of effort was expended. 2 CFR §200.201(b)(3). If the required level of
activity or effort was not carried out, the amount of the Contract must be adjusted.
15) Event of Default. Failure to comply with the Uniform Guidance or these Supplemental Provisions for Federal
Awards shall constitute an event of default under the Contract pursuant to 2 CFR §200.339 and CDHS may
terminate the Contract in accordance with the termination provisions in the Contract.
16) Close Out. Subrecipient shall close out this Contract within 90 days after the End Date. Contract close out
entails submission to CDHS by Subrecipient of all documentation defined as a deliverable in this Contract,
and Subrecipient’s final reimbursement request. CDHS shall withhold 5% of the allowable costs until all final
project documentation has been submitted and accepted by State as substantially complete. If the project has
not been closed by the Federal awarding agency within 1 year and 90 days after the End Date due to
Subrecipient’s failure to submit required documentation that CDHS has requested from Subrecipient, then
Subrecipient may be prohibited from applying for new Federal awards through the State until such
documentation has been submitted and accepted.
17) Erroneous Payments. The closeout of a Federal award does not affect the right of the Federal awarding
agency or CDHS to disallow costs and recover funds on the basis of a later audit or other review. Any cost
disallowance recovery is to be made within the record retention period.
