ADMINISTRATIVE AND/OR FINANCIAL REQUIREMENTS The Subrecipient shall comply with all applicable state and federal laws, rules, regulations, requirements and program guidance identified or referenced in this Agreement and the informational documents published by DHS/FEMA applicable to the 21EMPG-ARPA Program, including, but not limited to, all criteria, restrictions, and requirements of The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) Fiscal Year (FY) 2021 Emergency Management Performance Grant (EMPG) document, the FEMA Preparedness Grants Manual document (the Manual), the DHS Award Letter for Grant No. EMS-2021-EP-00008-S01, and the federal regulations commonly applicable to DHS/FEMA grants, all of which are incorporated herein by reference. The DHS Award Letter is incorporated in this Agreement as Attachment C. The Subrecipient acknowledges that since this Agreement involves federal award funding, the performance period may begin prior to the availability of appropriated federal funds. The Subrecipient agrees that it will not hold the Department, the state of Washington, or the United States liable for any damages, claim for reimbursement, or any type of payment whatsoever for services performed under this Agreement prior to distribution of appropriated federal funds, or if federal funds are not appropriated or in a particular amount. A. STATE AND FEDERAL REQUIREMENTS FOR DHS/FEMA PREPAREDNESS GRANTS: The following requirements apply to all DHS/FEMA Preparedness Grants administered by the Department. 1. SUBAWARDS & CONTRACTS BY SUBRECIPIENT a. The Subrecipient must make a case-by-case determination whether each agreement it makes for the disbursement of 21EMPG-ARPA funds received under this Agreement casts the party receiving the funds in the role of a subrecipient or contractor in accordance with 2 CFR 200.331. b. If the Subrecipient becomes a pass-through entity by making a subaward to a non-federal entity as its subrecipient: DHS-FEMA-EMPG-ARPA-FY21 Page 3 of 35 City of Kent EMD, E22-256 i. The Subrecipient must comply with all federal laws and regulations applicable to pass-through entities of 21EMPG-ARPA funds, including, but not limited to, those contained in 2 CFR 200. ii. The Subrecipient shall require its subrecipient(s) to comply with all applicable state and federal laws, rules, regulations, requirements, and program guidance identified or referenced in this Agreement and the informational documents published by DHS/FEMA applicable to the 21EMPG-ARPA Program, including, but not limited to, all criteria, restrictions, and requirements of The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) Fiscal Year (FY) 2021 Emergency Management Performance Grant (EMPG) document, the Manual, the DHS Award Letter for Grant No. EMS-2021-EP-00008-S01 in Attachment C, and the federal regulations commonly applicable to DHS/FEMA grants. iii. The Subrecipient shall be responsible to the Department for ensuring that all 21EMPG-ARPA federal award funds provided to its subrecipients, and associated matching funds, are used in accordance with applicable federal and state statutes and regulations, and the terms and conditions of the federal award set forth in Attachment C of this Agreement. 2. BUDGET, REIMBURSEMENT, AND TIMELINE a. Within the total Grant Agreement Amount, travel, subcontracts, salaries, benefits, printing, equipment, and other goods and services or other budget categories will be reimbursed on an actual cost basis upon completion unless otherwise provided in this Agreement. b. The maximum amount of all reimbursement requests permitted to be submitted under this Agreement, including the final reimbursement request, is limited to and shall not exceed the total Grant Agreement Amount. c. If the Subrecipient chooses to include indirect costs within the Budget (Attachment F), additional documentation is required based on the applicable situation. As described in 2 CFR 200.414 and Appendix VII to 2 CFR 200: i. If the Subrecipient receives direct funding from any Federal agency(ies), documentation of the rate must be submitted to the Department Key Personnel per the following: A. More than $35 million, the approved indirect cost rate agreement negotiated with its federal cognizant agency. B. Less than $35 million, the indirect cost proposal developed in accordance with Appendix VII of 2 CFR 200 requirements. ii. If the Subrecipient does not receive direct federal funds (i.e., only receives funds as a subrecipient), the Subrecipient must either elect to charge a de minimus rate of ten percent (10%) or 10% of modified total direct costs or choose to negotiate a higher rate with the Department. If the latter is preferred, the Subrecipient must contact Department Key Personnel for approval steps. d. For travel costs, the Subrecipient shall comply with 2 CFR 200.475 and should consult their internal policies, state rates set pursuant to RCW 43.03.050 and RCW 43.03.060 as now existing or amended, and federal maximum rates set forth at https://www.gsa.gov, and follow the most restrictive. If travel costs exceed set state or federal limits, travel costs shall not be reimbursed without written approval by Department Key Personnel. e. Reimbursement requests will include a properly completed State A-19 Invoice Form and Reimbursement Spreadsheet (in the format provided by the Department) detailing the expenditures for which reimbursement is sought. Reimbursement requests must be submitted to Reimbursements@mil.wa.gov no later than the due dates listed within the Timeline (Attachment E). DHS-FEMA-EMPG-ARPA-FY21 Page 4 of 35 City of Kent EMD, E22-256 Reimbursement request totals should be commensurate to the time spent processing by the Subrecipient and the Department. f. Receipts and/or backup documentation for any approved items that are authorized under this Agreement must be maintained by the Subrecipient consistent with record retention requirements of this Agreement and be made available upon request by the Department and auditors. g. The Subrecipient must request prior written approval from Department Key Personnel to waive or extend a due date in the Timeline (Attachment E). For waived or extended reimbursements, all allowable costs should be submitted on the next scheduled reimbursement due date contained in the Timeline. Waiving or missing deadlines serves as an indicator for assessing an agency’s level of risk of noncompliance with the regulations, requirements, and the terms and conditions of the Agreement and may increase required monitoring activities. Any request for a waiver or extension of a due date in the Timeline will be treated as a request for Amendment of the Agreement. This request must be submitted to the Department Key Personnel sufficiently in advance of the due date to provide adequate time for Department review and consideration and may be granted or denied within the Department’s sole discretion. h. All work under this Agreement must end on or before the Grant Agreement End Date, and the final reimbursement request must be submitted to the Department within forty-five (45) days after the Grant Agreement End Date, except as otherwise authorized by either (1) written amendment of this Agreement or (2) written notification from the Department to the Subrecipient to provide additional time for completion of the Subrecipient’s project(s). i. No costs for purchases of equipment/supplies will be reimbursed until the related equipment/supplies have been received by the Subrecipient, its contractor, or any non- federal entity to which the Subrecipient makes a subaward and is invoiced by the vendor. j. Failure to submit timely, accurate, and complete reports and reimbursement requests as required by this Agreement (including, but not limited to, those reports in the Timeline) will prohibit the Subrecipient from being reimbursed until such reports and reimbursement requests are submitted and the Department has had reasonable time to conduct its review. k. Final reimbursement requests will not be approved for payment until the Subrecipient is current with all reporting requirements contained in this Agreement. l. A written amendment will be required if the Subrecipient expects cumulative transfers to approved, direct budget categories, as identified in the Budget (Attachment F), to exceed ten percent (10%) of the Grant Agreement Amount. Any changes to budget category totals not in compliance with this paragraph will not be reimbursed without approval from the Department. m. Subrecipients shall only use federal award funds under this Agreement to supplement existing funds and will not use them to replace (supplant) non-federal funds that have been budgeted for the same purpose. The Subrecipient may be required to demonstrate and document that a reduction in non-federal resources occurred for reasons other than the receipt or expected receipt of federal funds. 3. REPORTING a. With each reimbursement request, the Subrecipient shall report how the expenditures, for which reimbursement is sought, relate to the Work Plan (Attachment D) activities in the format provided by the Department. b. With the final reimbursement request, the Subrecipient shall submit to the Department Key Personnel a final report describing all completed activities under this Agreement. c. In conjunction with the final report, the Subrecipient shall submit a separate report detailing how the EMPG Training requirements were met for all personnel funded by federal or matching funds under this Agreement.

Non-participation may result in withholding of funding under future grant years. 4. EQUIPMENT AND SUPPLY MANAGEMENT a. The Subrecipient and any non-federal entity to which the Subrecipient makes a subaward shall comply with 2 CFR 200.317 through 200.327, and all Washington State procurement statutes, when procuring any equipment or supplies under this Agreement, 2 CFR 200.313 for management of equipment, and 2 CFR 200.314 for management of supplies, to include, but not limited to: i. Upon successful completion of the terms of this Agreement, all equipment and supplies purchased through this Agreement will be owned by the Subrecipient, or a recognized non-federal entity to which the Subrecipient has made a subaward, for which a contract, Subrecipient grant agreement, or other means of legal transfer of ownership is in place. ii. All equipment, and supplies as applicable, purchased under this Agreement will be recorded and maintained in the Subrecipient’s inventory system. iii. Inventory system records shall include: A.

Any differences between quantities determined by the physical inspection and those shown in the records shall be investigated by the Subrecipient to determine the cause of the difference. The Subrecipient shall, in connection with the inventory, verify the existence, current utilization, and continued need for the equipment. v. The Subrecipient shall be responsible for any and all operational and maintenance expenses and for the safe operation of their equipment and supplies including all questions of liability. The Subrecipient shall develop appropriate maintenance schedules and procedures to ensure the equipment, and supplies as applicable, are well maintained and kept in good operating condition. DHS-FEMA-EMPG-ARPA-FY21 Page 6 of 35 City of Kent EMD, E22-256 vi. The Subrecipient shall develop a control system to ensure adequate safeguards to prevent loss, damage, and theft of the property. Any loss, damage, or theft shall be investigated, and a report generated and sent to the Department’s Key Personnel. vii. The Subrecipient must obtain and maintain all necessary certifications and licenses for the equipment. viii. If the Subrecipient is authorized or required to sell the property, proper sales procedures must be established and followed to ensure the highest possible return. For disposition, if upon termination or at the Grant Agreement End Date, when original or replacement supplies or equipment acquired under a federal award are no longer needed for the original project or program or for other activities currently or previously supported by a federal awarding agency, the Subrecipient must comply with the following procedures: A. For Supplies: If there is a residual inventory of unused supplies exceeding $5,000 in total aggregate value upon termination or completion of the project or program and the supplies are not needed for any other federal award, the Subrecipient must retain the supplies for use on other activities or sell them, but must, in either case, compensate the federal government for its share. The amount of compensation must be computed in the same manner as for equipment. B. For Equipment: 1) Items with a current per-unit fair-market value of $5,000 or less may be retained, sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of with no further obligation to the federal awarding agency. 2) Items with a current per-unit fair-market value in excess of $5,000 may be retained or sold. The Subrecipient shall compensate the federal awarding agency in accordance with the requirements of 2 CFR 200.313 (e) (2). ix. Records for equipment shall be retained by the Subrecipient for a period of six years from the date of the disposition, replacement, or transfer.

Allowable categories for the EMPG Program are listed on the Authorized Equipment List (AEL) located on the FEMA website at https://www.fema.gov/grants/guidance- tools/authorized-equipment-list. It is important that the Subrecipient and any non-federal entity to which the Subrecipient makes a subaward regard the AEL as an authorized purchasing list identifying items allowed under the specific grant program and includes items that may not be categorized as equipment according to the federal, state, local, and tribal definitions of equipment. The Subrecipient is solely responsible for ensuring and documenting purchased items under this Agreement are authorized as allowed items by the AEL at time of purchase. If the item is not identified on the AEL as allowable under EMPG, the Subrecipient must contact the Department Key Personnel for assistance in seeking FEMA approval prior to acquisition. d. Unless expressly provided otherwise, all equipment must meet all mandatory regulatory and/or DHS/FEMA adopted standards to be eligible for purchase using federal award funds. DHS-FEMA-EMPG-ARPA-FY21 Page 7 of 35 City of Kent EMD, E22-256 e. If funding is allocated to emergency communications, the Subrecipient must ensure that all projects comply with SAFECOM Guidance on Emergency Communications Grants ensuring the investments are compatible, interoperable, resilient, and support national goals and objectives for improving emergency communications. f. Effective August 13, 2020, FEMA recipients and subrecipients, as well as their contractors and subcontractors, may not obligate or expend any FEMA award funds to: i. Procure or obtain any equipment, system, or service that uses covered telecommunications equipment or services as a substantial or essential component of any system, or as critical technology of any system; ii. Enter into, extend, or renew a contract to procure or obtain any equipment, system, or service that uses covered telecommunications equipment or services as a substantial or essential component of any system, or as critical technology of any system; or iii. Enter into, extend, or renew contracts with entities that use covered telecommunications equipment or services as a substantial or essential component of any system, or as critical technology as part of any system. This prohibition regarding certain telecommunications and video surveillance services or equipment is mandated by section 889 of the John S. McCain National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019 (FY 2019 NDAA), Pub. L. No. 115-232 (2018). Recipients and subrecipients may use DHS/FEMA grant funding to procure replacement equipment and services impacted by this prohibition, provided the costs are otherwise consistent with the requirements of the Manual and applicable NOFO. Per section 889(f)(2)-(3) of the FY 2019 NDAA, and 2 CFR 200.216, covered telecommunications equipment or services means: i. Telecommunications equipment produced by Huawei Technologies Company or ZTE Corporation, (or any subsidiary or affiliate of such entities); ii.

The Subrecipient must pass through equipment and supply management requirements that meet or exceed the requirements outlined above to any non-federal entity to which the Subrecipient makes a subaward under this Agreement. 5. ENVIRONMENTAL AND HISTORICAL PRESERVATION a. The Subrecipient shall ensure full compliance with the DHS/FEMA Environmental Planning and Historic Preservation (EHP) program. EHP program information can be found at https://www.fema.gov/grants/guidance-tools/environmental-historic all of which are incorporated in and made a part of this Agreement. b. Projects that have historical impacts or the potential to impact the environment, including, but not limited to, construction of communication towers; modification or renovation of existing buildings, structures and facilities; or new construction including replacement of DHS-FEMA-EMPG-ARPA-FY21 Page 8 of 35 City of Kent EMD, E22-256 facilities, must participate in the DHS/FEMA EHP review process prior to initiation. Modification of existing buildings, including minimally invasive improvements such as attaching monitors to interior walls, and training or exercises occurring outside in areas not considered previously disturbed, also require a DHS/FEMA EHP review before project initiation. c. The EHP review process involves the submission of a detailed project description that includes the entire scope of work, including any alternatives that may be under consideration, along with supporting documentation so FEMA may determine whether the proposed project has the potential to impact environmental resources and/or historic properties. d. The Subrecipient agrees that to receive any federal preparedness funding, all EHP compliance requirements outlined in applicable guidance must be met. The EHP review process must be completed and FEMA approval received by the Subrecipient before any work is started for which reimbursement will be later requested. Expenditures for projects started before completion of the EHP review process and receipt of approval by the Subrecipient will not be reimbursed. 6. PROCUREMENT a. The Subrecipient shall comply with all procurement requirements of 2 CFR Part 200.317 through 200.327 and as specified in the General Terms and Conditions (Attachment B, A.10). b. For all sole source contracts expected to exceed $250,000, the Subrecipient must submit to the Department for pre-procurement review and approval the procurement documents, such as requests for proposals, invitations for bids and independent cost estimates. This requirement must be passed on to any non-federal entity to which the Subrecipient makes a subaward, at which point the Subrecipient will be responsible for reviewing and approving sole source justifications of any non-federal entity to which the Subrecipient makes a subaward. 7. SUBRECIPIENT MONITORING a. The Department will monitor the activities of the Subrecipient from award to closeout. The goal of the Department’s monitoring activities will be to ensure that agencies receiving federal pass-through funds are in compliance with this Agreement, federal and state audit requirements, federal grant guidance, and applicable federal and state financial regulations, as well as 2 CFR Part 200 Subpart F. b.To document compliance with 2 CFR Part 200 Subpart F requirements, the Subrecipient shall complete and return to the Department an Audit Certification/FFATA form. This form is required to be completed once per calendar year, per Subrecipient, and not per agreement. The Department’s Contracts Office will request the Subrecipient submit an updated form at the beginning of each calendar year in which the Subrecipient has an active agreement. c. Monitoring activities may include, but are not limited to: i. Review of financial and performance reports ii. Monitoring and documenting the completion of Agreement deliverables iii. Documentation of phone calls, meetings (e.g. agendas, sign-in sheets, meeting minutes), e-mails and correspondence iv. Review of reimbursement requests and supporting documentation to ensure allowability and consistency with Agreement work plan, budget, and federal requirements v. Observation and documentation of Agreement related activities, such as exercises, training, events, and equipment demonstrations DHS-FEMA-EMPG-ARPA-FY21 Page 9 of 35 City of Kent EMD, E22-256 vi. On-site visits to review equipment records and inventories, to verify source documentation for reimbursement requests and performance reports, and to verify completion of deliverables. d. The Subrecipient is required to meet or exceed the monitoring activities, as outlined above, for any non-federal entity to which the Subrecipient makes a subaward as a pass- through entity under this Agreement. e. Compliance will be monitored throughout the performance period to assess risk. Concerns will be addressed through a Corrective Action Plan. 8. LIMITED ENGLISH PROFICIENCY (CIVIL RIGHTS ACT OF 1964 TITLE VI) a. The Subrecipient must comply with the Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VI) prohibition against discrimination on the basis of national origin, which requires that Subrecipients of federal financial assistance take reasonable steps to provide meaningful access to persons with limited English proficiency (LEP) to their programs and services. Providing meaningful access for persons with LEP may entail providing language assistance services, including oral interpretation and written translation. Executive Order 13166, Improving Access to Services for Persons with Limited English Proficiency (August 11, 2000), requires federal agencies to issue guidance to recipients, assisting such organizations and entities in understanding their language access obligations. DHS published the required recipient guidance in April 2011, DHS Guidance to Federal Financial Assistance Recipients Regarding Title VI Prohibition Against National Origin Discrimination Affecting Limited English Proficient Persons, 76 Fed. Reg. 21755-21768, (April 18, 2011). The Guidance provides helpful information such as how a recipient can determine the extent of its obligation to provide language services, selecting language services, and elements of an effective plan on language assistance for LEP persons. For additional assistance and information regarding language access obligations, please refer to the DHS Recipient Guidance at https://www.dhs.gov/guidance-published-help- department-supported-organizations-provide-meaningful-access-people-limited and additional resources on https://www.lep.gov. 9. NIMS COMPLIANCE a. The National Incident Management System (NIMS) identifies concepts and principles that answer how to manage emergencies from preparedness to recovery regardless of their cause, size, location, or complexity. NIMS provides a consistent, nationwide approach and vocabulary for multiple agencies or jurisdictions to work together to build, sustain, and deliver the core capabilities needed to achieve a secure and resilient nation. b. Consistent implementation of NIMS provides a solid foundation across jurisdictions and disciplines to ensure effective and integrated preparedness, planning, and response. NIMS empowers the components of the National Preparedness System, a requirement of Presidential Policy Directive 8, to guide activities within the public and private sector and describes the planning, organizational activities, equipping, training, and exercising needed to build and sustain the core capabilities in support of the National Preparedness Goal. c. In order to receive FY 2021 federal preparedness funding, to include EMPG, the Subrecipient will ensure all NIMS objectives have been initiated and/or are in progress toward completion. NIMS Implementation Objectives are located at https://www.fema.gov/sites/default/files/2020-07/fema_nims_implementation-objectives- 20180530.pdf.

Non-federal entities, as Subrecipients of a federal award, that expend $750,000 or more in one fiscal year of federal funds from all sources, direct and indirect, are required to have a single or a program- specific audit conducted in accordance with 2 CFR Part 200 Subpart F. Non-federal entities that spend less than $750,000 a year in federal awards are exempt from federal audit requirements for that year, except as noted in 2 CFR Part 200 Subpart F. As defined in 2 CFR Part 200, the term “non-federal entity” means a state, local government, Indian tribe, institution of higher education, or nonprofit organization that carries out a federal award as a recipient or subrecipient. Subrecipients that are required to have an audit must ensure the audit is performed in accordance with Generally Accepted Government Auditing Standards (GAGAS) as found in the Government Auditing Standards (the Revised Yellow Book) developed by the United States Comptroller General and the OMB Compliance Supplement. The Subrecipient has the responsibility of notifying its auditor and requesting an audit in compliance with 2 CFR Part 200 Subpart F, to include the Washington State Auditor’s Office, a federal auditor, or a public accountant performing work using GAGAS, as appropriate. Costs of the audit may be an allowable grant expenditure as authorized by 2 CFR Part 200.425. DHS-FEMA-EMPG-ARPA-FY21 Page 19 of 35 City of Kent EMD, E22-256 The Subrecipient shall maintain auditable records and accounts so as to facilitate the audit requirement and shall ensure that any subcontractors also maintain auditable records. The Subrecipient is responsible for any audit exceptions incurred by its own organization or that of its subcontractors. Responses to any unresolved management findings and disallowed or questioned costs shall be included with the audit report. The Subrecipient must respond to Department requests for information or corrective action concerning audit issues or findings within 30 days of the date of request. The Department reserves the right to recover from the Subrecipient all disallowed costs resulting from the audit. After the single audit has been completed, and if it includes any audit findings, the Subrecipient must send a full copy of the audit and its Corrective Action Plan to the Department at the following address no later than nine (9) months after the end of the Subrecipient’s fiscal year(s): Contracts Office Washington Military Department Finance Division, Building #1 TA-20 Camp Murray, WA 98430-5032 The Department retains the sole discretion to determine whether a valid claim for an exemption from the audit requirements of this provision has been established. Conducting a single or program-specific audit in compliance with 2 CFR Part 200 Subpart F is a material requirement of this Agreement. In the absence of a valid claim of exemption from the audit requirements of 2 CFR Part 200 Subpart F, the Subrecipient’s failure to comply with said audit requirements may result in one or more of the following actions in the Department’s sole discretion: a percentage of federal awards being withheld until the audit is completed in accordance with 2 CFR Part 200 Subpart F; the withholding or disallowing of overhead costs; the suspension of federal awards until the audit is conducted and submitted; or termination of the federal award. A.29 SUBRECIPIENT NOT EMPLOYEE The parties intend that an independent contractor relationship will be created by this Agreement. The Subrecipient, and/or employees or agents performing under this Agreement are not employees or agents of the Department in any manner whatsoever. The Subrecipient will not be presented as, nor claim to be, an officer or employee of the Department by reason of this Agreement, nor will the Subrecipient make any claim, demand, or application to or for any right or privilege applicable to an officer or employee of the Department or of the state of Washington by reason of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, Workmen's Compensation coverage, unemployment insurance benefits, social security benefits, retirement membership or credit, or privilege or benefit which would accrue to a civil service employee under Chapter 41.06 RCW. It is understood that if the Subrecipient is another state department, state agency, state university, state college, state community college, state board, or state commission, that the officers and employees are employed by the state of Washington in their own right and not by reason of this Agreement. A.30 TAXES, FEES AND LICENSES Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Subrecipient shall be responsible for, pay and maintain in current status all taxes, unemployment contributions, fees, licenses, assessments, permit charges and expenses of any other kind for the Subrecipient or its staff required by statute or regulation that are applicable to Agreement performance. A.31 TERMINATION FOR CONVENIENCE Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement, the Subrecipient may terminate this Agreement by providing written notice of such termination to the Department Key Personnel identified in the Agreement, specifying the effective date thereof, at least thirty (30) days prior to such date. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Department, in its sole discretion and in the best interests of the state of Washington, may terminate this Agreement in whole or in part ten (10) business days after emailing notice. Upon notice of termination for convenience, the Department reserves the right to suspend all or part of the Agreement, withhold further payments, or prohibit the Subrecipient from incurring additional obligations of funds. In the event of termination, the Subrecipient 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. DHS-FEMA-EMPG-ARPA-FY21 Page 20 of 35 City of Kent EMD, E22-256 A.32 TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION FOR LOSS OF FUNDING The Department may unilaterally terminate or suspend all or part of this Grant Agreement, or may reduce its scope of work and budget, if there is a reduction in funds by the source of those funds, and if such funds are the basis for this Grant Agreement. The Department will email the Subrecipient ten (10) business days prior to termination. A.33 TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION FOR CAUSE In the event the Department, in its sole discretion, determines the Subrecipient has failed to fulfill in a timely and proper manner its obligations under this Agreement, is in an unsound financial condition so as to endanger performance hereunder, is in violation of any laws or regulations that render the Subrecipient unable to perform any aspect of the Agreement, or has violated any of the covenants, agreements or stipulations of this Agreement, the Department has the right to immediately suspend or terminate this Agreement in whole or in part. The Department may notify the Subrecipient 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 Subrecipient 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 Subrecipient’s liability for damages or otherwise affect any other remedies available to the Department. If the Department allows the Subrecipient an opportunity to cure, the Department shall notify the Subrecipient in writing of the need to take corrective action. If the corrective action is not taken within ten (10) calendar days or as otherwise specified by the Department, or if such corrective action is deemed by the Department to be insufficient, the Agreement may be terminated in whole or in part. The Department reserves the right to suspend all or part of the Agreement, withhold further payments, or prohibit the Subrecipient from incurring additional obligations of funds during investigation of the alleged compliance breach, pending corrective action by the Subrecipient, if allowed, or pending a decision by the Department to terminate the Agreement in whole or in part. In the event of termination, the Subrecipient shall be liable for all damages as authorized by law, including, but not limited to, any cost difference between the original Agreement and the replacement or cover Agreement and all administrative costs directly related to the replacement 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 Subrecipient: (1) was not in default or material breach, or (2) failure to perform was outside of the Subrecipient’s control, fault or negligence, the termination shall be deemed to be a “Termination for Convenience”. A.34 TERMINATION PROCEDURES In addition to the procedures set forth below, if the Department terminates this Agreement, the Subrecipient shall follow any procedures specified in the termination notice. Upon termination of this Agreement and in addition to any other rights provided in this Agreement, the Department may require the Subrecipient to deliver to the Department any property specifically produced or acquired for the performance of such part of this Agreement as has been terminated. If the termination is for convenience, the Department shall pay to the Subrecipient as an 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 Agreement termination, the amount agreed upon by the Subrecipient 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 preservation of property. Failure to agree with such amounts shall be a dispute within the meaning of the "Disputes" clause of this Agreement. If the termination is for cause, the Department shall determine the extent of the liability of the Department. The Department shall have no other obligation to the Subrecipient for termination. The Department may withhold from any amounts due the Subrecipient such sum as the Department determines to be necessary to protect the Department against potential loss or liability.

Activities conducted using EMPG-ARPA funding should relate directly to the five elements of emergency management: prevention, protection, response, recovery, and mitigation. Washington State does not require a specific number of activities to receive EMPG-ARPA funding. However, there are required capabilities that must be sustained in order to remain eligible for EMPG-ARPA funding, including but not limited to the ability to communicate and warn, educate the public, plan, train, exercise, and be NIMS compliant. The Work Plan delineates the Emergency Management Organization's emergency management program planning and priority focus for this grant cycle (to include EMPG grant and local funds). Priority Area #1 4.10 Exercises, Evaluations, and Corrective Actions Primary Core Capability Operational Coordination Secondary Core Capability Operational Communications Build or Sustain Sustaining/Maintaining WORK PLANNED IDENTIFIED GAP/NEED ANTICIPATED PROJECT IMPACT Hire a consultant to provide section specific training and a completed exercise to identified ECC staff. Included costs are consultant fee, books, manuals, and sustenance for training. To enhance the City's capabilities through identification of roles, training and exercising. Trained and identified staff who are better able to respond to an incident/event within our City. Priority Area #2 4.2 Hazard Mitigation Primary Core Capability Community Resilience Secondary Core Capability Planning Build or Sustain Sustaining/Maintaining WORK PLANNED IDENTIFIED GAP/NEED ANTICIPATED PROJECT IMPACT Purchase solar lanterns for the employees as part of the employee preparedness campaign. Continued efforts to have employees and their families be prepared at home for any disaster. Staff who are prepared for disasters at home are better equipped to come back to work to help the City then respond to the event. Priority Area #3 4.9 Training Primary Core Capability Community Resilience Secondary Core Capability Operational Coordination Build or Sustain Sustaining/Maintaining WORK PLANNED IDENTIFIED GAP/NEED ANTICIPATED PROJECT IMPACT Conduct trainings and/or send EM Staff, City Staff, Fire Staff, and EM Volunteers to career development workshops, seminars, conferences, and training for emergency management. To increase job skills and knowledge in Emergency Management functions. Fully trained staff and volunteers who are better able to respond to the Kent ECC/DOCs in an incident/event. Priority Area #4 4.11 Emergency Public Information and Education Primary Core Capability Community Resilience Secondary Core Capability Operational Coordination DHS-FEMA-EMPG-ARPA-FY21 Page 33 of 35 City of Kent EMD, E22-256 Build or Sustain Sustaining/Maintaining WORK PLANNED IDENTIFIED GAP/NEED ANTICIPATED PROJECT IMPACT Participate in multiple community events throughout the year such as Cornucopia Days, Covington Days, National Night Out, Kids Safety Day and multiple other City/School events. Focus is needed to build community safety and emergency preparedness for both adults and youth. More youth and adults interested in emergency preparedness and having the knowledge of how to prepare for and respond during a disaster. Additionally, an engaged community who feel involved and have a better understanding of their role in the event of a disaster. Conduct specialized CERT/Preparedness classes for local businesses, neighborhoods, and schools. A known gap is that the community is not self-reliant; and for the community to rebuild they must be educated on how to be prepared and how to take care of themselves and others around them. A more resilient community prepared for and able to respond to a disaster, and that is educated in all aspects of disaster preparedness so that they can help mitigate loss and assist the community in rebuilding after a disaster.
