government, Tribal nations, nongovernmental organizations including voluntary
organizations, and private sector partners to work together to prevent, protect against,
respond to, recover from, and mitigate the effects of incidents, regardless of cause, size,
location, or complexity.

Compliance Assistance Support Tool (NIMSCAST) assessments and, if necessary, submit
a Corrective Action Plan via NIMSCAST for FFY10. Corrective Action Plans are only
required if a jurisdiction fails to meet one of the NIMS implementation activities.
Comprehensive information concerning NIMS implementation for States, Tribal nations,
local governments, nongovernmental organizations, and the private sector is available
through the National Integration Center (NIC) at FEMA’s NIMS Resource Center at
http://www.fema.gov/nims.

discretion and in the best interests of the State of Washington, may terminate this Grant
Agreement in whole or in part by providing ten (10) calendar days written notice,
beginning on the second day after mailing to the SUB-GRANTEE. Upon notice of
termination for convenience, the DEPARTMENT reserves the right to suspend all or part
of the Grant Agreement, withhold further payments, or prohibit the SUB-GRANTEE from
incurring additional obligations of funds. In the event of termination, the SUB-GRANTEE
shall be liable for all damages as authorized by law. The rights and remedies of the
DEPARTMENT provided for in this section shall not be exclusive and are in addition to
any other rights and remedies provided by law.
A.32 TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION FOR CAUSE
In the event the DEPARMENT, in its sole discretion, determines the SUB-GRANTEE
has failed to fulfill in a timely and proper manner its obligations under this Grant
Agreement, is in an unsound financial condition so as to endanger performance
hereunder, is in violation of any laws or regulations that render the SUB-GRANTEE
unable to perform any aspect of the Grant Agreement, or has violated any of the
covenants, agreements or stipulations of this Grant Agreement, the DEPARTMENT has
the right to immediately suspend or terminate this Grant Agreement in whole or in part.
The DEPARTMENT may notify the SUB-GRANTEE in writing of the need to take
corrective action and provide a period of time in which to cure. The DEPARTMENT is
not required to allow the SUBGRANTEE an opportunity to cure if it is not feasible as
determined solely within the DEPARTMENT’s discretion. Any time allowed for cure shall
not diminish or eliminate the SUB-GRANTEE’s liability for damages or otherwise affect
any other remedies available to the DEPARTMENT. If the DEPARTMENT allows the
SUB-GRANTEE an opportunity to cure, the DEPARTMENT shall notify the SUB-
GRANTEE in writing of the need to take corrective action. If the corrective action is not

The DEPARTMENT reserves the right to suspend all or part of the Grant Agreement,
withhold further payments, or prohibit the SUB-GRANTEE from incurring additional
obligations of funds during investigation of the alleged compliance breach, pending
corrective action by the SUB-GRANTEE, if allowed, or pending a decision by the
DEPARTMENT to terminate the Grant Agreement in whole or in part.
In the event of termination, the SUB-GRANTEE shall be liable for all damages as
authorized by law, including but not limited to, any cost difference between the original
Grant Agreement and the replacement or cover Grant Agreement and all administrative
costs directly related to the replacement Grant Agreement, e.g., cost of administering the
competitive solicitation process, mailing, advertising and other associated staff time.

The rights and remedies of the DEPARTMENT provided for in this section shall not be
exclusive and are in addition to any other rights and remedies provided by law.
If it is determined that the SUB-GRANTEE: (1) was not in default or material breach, or
(2) failure to perform was outside of the SUB-GRANTEE’s control, fault or negligence,
the termination shall be deemed to be a “Termination for Convenience”.
A.33 TERMINATION PROCEDURES
In addition to the procedures set forth below, if the DEPARTMENT terminates this Grant
Agreement, the SUB-GRANTEE shall follow any procedures specified in the termination
notice. Upon termination of this Grant Agreement and in addition to any other rights
provided in this Grant Agreement, the DEPARTMENT may require the SUB-GRANTEE
to deliver to the DEPARTMENT any property specifically produced or acquired for the
performance of such part of this Grant Agreement as has been terminated.
If the termination is for convenience, the DEPARTMENT shall pay to the SUB-
GRANTEE the agreed upon price, if separately stated, for properly authorized and
completed work and services rendered or goods delivered to and accepted by the
DEPARTMENT prior to the effective date of Grant Agreement termination, and the
amount agreed upon by the SUB-GRANTEE and the DEPARTMENT for (i) completed
work and services and/or equipment or supplies provided for which no separate price is
stated, (ii) partially completed work and services and/or equipment or supplies provided
which are accepted by the DEPARTMENT, (iii) other work, services and/or equipment or
supplies which are accepted by the DEPARTMENT, and (iv) the protection and

DEPARTMENT shall determine the extent of the liability of the DEPARTMENT. The
DEPARTMENT shall have no other obligation to the SUB-GRANTEE for termination.
The DEPARTMENT may withhold from any amounts due the SUB-GRANTEE such sum
as the DEPARTMENT determines to be necessary to protect the DEPARTMENT against
potential loss or liability.

not be exclusive and are in addition to any other rights and remedies provided by law.

DEPARTMENT in writing, the SUB-GRANTEE shall:
a. Stop work under the Grant Agreement on the date, and to the extent specified, in
the notice;

ATTACHMENT #1
ADDITIONAL AGREEMENT PROVISIONS
for Compliance With the
Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006 (P.L. 109-282)
A. 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.
B. 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.
C. 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.
D. 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.
1. Data about your organization will be provided to USASpending.gov by the WMD
or by the Federal Contractor Registry (CCR). CCR is a government wide
registration system for organizations that do business with the Federal
Government. CCR stores information about awardees including financial account
information for payment purposes and a link to D&B for maintaining current
DUNS information, www.ccr.gov. WMD encourages CCR registration and
annual renewal by your organization to minimize unnecessary data entry and re-
entry required by both WMD and your organization. It will also reduce the
potential of inconsistent or inaccurate data entry.
2. Your organization must have a Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS)
number obtained from the firm Dun and Bradstreet (D&B) (www.dnb.com). A
DUNS number provides a method to verify data about your organization. D&B is
responsible for maintaining unique identifiers and organizational linkages on
behalf of the Federal Government for organizations receiving Federal assistance.
E. The WMD, as the prime awardee, is required by FFATA to report names and total
compensation of the five (5) most highly compensated officers of your organization (as the
subawardee) if:

1. Your organization (the subawardee), in the preceding fiscal year, received 80 percent or
more of its annual gross revenues from Federal awards and $25,000,000 or more in
annual gross revenues from Federal awards; and
2. The public does not have access to this information about the compensation of the senior
executives of your organization through periodic reports filed under section 13(a) or
15(d) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. §§ 78m(a), 78o(d) or
section 6104 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.
“Total compensation” for purposes of this requirement generally means the cash and non-cash
value earned by the executive during the past fiscal year and includes salary and bonus; awards
of stock, stock options and stock appreciation rights; and other compensation such as severance
and termination payments, and value of life insurance paid on behalf of the employee, and as
otherwise provided by FFATA and applicable OMB guidance.
F. If (1) in the preceding fiscal year your organization received 80 percent or more of its annual
gross revenues from Federal awards and $25,000,000 or more in annual gross revenues from
Federal awards, and (2) the public does not have access to this information about the
compensation of the senior executives of your organization through periodic reports filed under
section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. §§ 78m(a), 78o(d)
or section 6104 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, insert the names and total compensation

SUMMARY OF ACTION:
The project started on April18, 2011, and was completed on July 27, 2011. The original contract amount
was $126,120.00 and the final contract amount is $114,453.80. Change orders 1 through 3 added a total
of $7,468.75 to the contract amount. Net under-runs in quantities of materials (in part due to over-
estimating during project design) offset the increase by $19,134.95, resulting in a net decrease of
$11,666.20. All costs are within the respective program budgets.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize payment of the final pay estimate in the amount of $4,995.53 and accept completion of the
project and release retainage for the full project in the total amount of $5,722.69 after 60 days, subject
