Deputy Assistant Attorney General
Office for Civil Rights Notice for All Recipients
The Office for Civil Rights (OCR), Office of Justice Programs (OJP), U.S. Department of Justice
(DOJ) has been delegated the responsibility for ensuring that recipients of federal financial
assistance from the OJP, the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS), and the Office
on Violence Against Women (OVW) are not engaged in discrimination prohibited by law. Several
federal civil rights laws, such as Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Section 504 of the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973, require recipients of federal financial assistance to give assurances that
they will comply with those laws. Taken together, these civil rights laws prohibit recipients of federal
financial assistance from DOJ from discriminating in services and employment because of race,
color, national origin, religion, disability, sex, and, for grants authorized under the Violence Against
Women Act, sexual orientation and gender identity. Recipients are also prohibited from
discriminating in services because of age. For a complete review of these civil rights laws and
nondiscrimination requirements, in connection with DOJ awards, see
https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/LegalOverview/CivilRightsRequirements.htm.
Under the delegation of authority, the OCR investigates allegations of discrimination against
recipients from individuals, entities, or groups. In addition, the OCR conducts limited compliance
reviews and audits based on regulatory criteria. These reviews and audits permit the OCR to
evaluate whether recipients of financial assistance from the Department are providing services in a
nondiscriminatory manner to their service population or have employment practices that meet equal -
opportunity standards.
If you are a recipient of grant awards under the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act or the
Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act and your agency is part of a criminal justice
system, there are two additional obligations that may apply in connection with the awards: (1)
complying with the regulation relating to Equal Employment Opportunity Programs (EEOPs); and (2)
submitting findings of discrimination to OCR. For additional information regarding the EEOP
requirement, see 28 CFR Part 42, subpart E, and for additional information regarding requirements
when there is an adverse finding, see 28 C.F.R. §§ 42.204(c), .205(c)(5).
The OCR is available to help you and your organization meet the civil rights requirements that are
associated with DOJ grant funding. If you would like the OCR to assist you in fulfilling your
organization's civil rights or nondiscrimination responsibilities as a recipient of federal financial
assistance, please do not hesitate to contact the OCR at askOCR@ojp.usdoj.gov.

apply to this FY 2022 award from OJR
The Part 200 Uniform Requirements were first adopted by DOJ on December 26, 2014. If this FY 2022
award supplements funds previously awarded by OJP under the same award number (e.g., funds awarded
during or before December 2014), the Part 200 Uniform Requirements apply with respect to all funds under
that award number (regardless of the award date, and regardless of whether derived from the initial award
or a supplemental award) that are obligated on or after the acceptance date of this FY 2022 award.
For more information and resources on the Part 200 Uniform Requirements as they relate to OJP awards
and subawards ("su bg rants"), see the OJP website at
hftps://ojp.gov/funding/Part2000niformRequirements.htm.
Record retention and access: Records pertinent to the award that the recipient (and any subrecipient
("subgrantee") at any tier) must retain -- typically for a period of 3 years from the date of submission of the
final expenditure report (SF 425), unless a different retention period applies -- and to which the recipient
(and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier) must provide access, include performance measurement
information, in addition to the financial records, supporting documents, statistical records, and other
pertinent records indicated at 2 C.F.R. 200.334.
In the event that an award -related question arises from documents or other materials prepared or distributed
by OJP that may appear to conflict with, or differ in some way from, the provisions of the Part 200 Uniform
Requirements, the recipient is to contact OJP promptly for clarification.
493
Requirement to report actual or imminent breach of personally identifiable information (PII)
The recipient (and any "subrecipient" at any tier) must have written procedures in place to respond in the
event of an actual or imminent "breach" (OMB M-17-12) if it (or a subrecipient) -- (1) creates, collects, uses,
processes, stores, maintains, disseminates, discloses, or disposes of "Personally Identifiable Information
(PII)" (2 CFR 200.1) within the scope of an OJP grant -funded program or activity, or (2) uses or operates a
"Federal information system" (OMB Circular A-130). The recipient's breach procedures must include a
requirement to report actual or imminent breach of PH to an OJP Program Manager no later than 24 hours
after an occurrence of an actual breach, or the detection of an imminent breach.
OJP Training Guiding Principles
Any training or training materials that the recipient -- or any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier --
develops or delivers with OJP award funds must adhere to the OJP Training Guiding Principles for Grantees
and Subgrantees, available at https://www.ojp.gov/funding/implement/training-guiding-principles-grantees-
and-subgrantees.
IQ5

The Grant Award Administrator and all Financial Managers for this award must have successfully completed
an "OJP financial management and grant administration training" by 120 days after the date of the
recipient's acceptance of the award. Successful completion of such a training on or after October 15, 2020,

In the event that either the Grant Award Administrator or a Financial Manager for this award changes during
the period of performance, the new Grant Award Administrator or Financial Manager must have successfully
completed an "OJP financial management and grant administration training" by 120 calendar days after the
date the Entity Administrator enters updated Grant Award Administrator or Financial Manager information in
JustGrants. Successful completion of such a training on or after January 1, 2020, will satisfy this condition.
A list of OJP trainings that OJP will consider "OJP financial management and grant administration training"
for purposes of this condition is available at https://www.ojp.gov/training/fmts.htm. All trainings that satisfy
this condition include a session on grant fraud prevention and detection.
The recipient should anticipate that OJP will immediately withhold ("freeze") award funds if the recipient fails
to comply with this condition. The recipient's failure to comply also may lead OJP to impose additional
appropriate conditions on this award.
'Qs
Effect of failure to address audit issues
The recipient understands and agrees that the DOJ awarding agency (OJP or OVW, as appropriate) may
withhold award funds, or may impose other related requirements, if (as determined by the DOJ awarding
agency) the recipient does not satisfactorily and promptly address outstanding issues from audits required
by the Part 200 Uniform Requirements (or by the terms of this award), or other outstanding issues that arise
in connection with audits, investigations, or reviews of DOJ awards.
1=11
Requirements of the award; remedies for non-compliance or for materially false statements
The conditions of this award are material requirements of the award. Compliance with any assurances or
certifications submitted by or on behalf of the recipient that relate to conduct during the period of
performance also is a material requirement of this award.
Limited Exceptions. In certain special circumstances, the U.S. Department of Justice ("DOJ") may determine
that it will not enforce, or enforce only in part, one or more requirements otherwise applicable to the award.
Any such exceptions regarding enforcement, including any such exceptions made during the period of
performance, are (or will be during the period of performance) set out through the Office of Justice Programs
("OJP") webpage entitled "Legal Notices: Special circumstances as to particular award conditions"
(ojp.gov/funding/Explore/LegaiNotices-AwardRegts.htm), and incorporated by reference into the award.
By signing and accepting this award on behalf of the recipient, the authorized recipient official accepts all
material requirements of the award, and specifically adopts, as if personally executed by the authorized
recipient official, all assurances or certifications submitted by or on behalf of the recipient that relate to
conduct during the period of performance.
Failure to comply with one or more award requirements -- whether a condition set out in full below, a
condition incorporated by reference below, or an assurance or certification related to conduct during the
award period -- may result in OJP taking appropriate action with respect to the recipient and the award.
Among other things, the OJP may withhold award funds, disallow costs, or suspend or terminate the award.
DOJ, including OJP, also may take other legal action as appropriate.
Any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement to the federal government related to this award (or
concealment or omission of a material fact) may be the subject of criminal prosecution (including under 18
U.S.C. 1001 and/or 1621, and/or 34 U.S.C. 10271-10273), and also may lead to imposition of civil penalties
and administrative remedies for false claims or otherwise (including under 31 U.S.C. 3729-3730 and 3801-
3812).
Should any provision of a requirement of this award be held to be invalid or unenforceable by its terms, that
provision shall first be applied with a limited construction so as to give it the maximum effect permitted by
law. Should it be held, instead, that the provision is utterly invalid or -unenforceable, such provision shall be
deemed severable from this award.

contract) either requires or has required internal confidentiality agreements or statements from employees or
contractors that currently prohibit or otherwise currently restrict (or purport to prohibit or restrict) employees
or contractors from reporting waste, fraud, or abuse as described above; and
(2) it has made appropriate inquiry, or otherwise has an adequate factual basis, to support this
representation; and
b. it certifies that, if it learns or is notified that any subrecipient, contractor, or subcontractor entity that
receives funds under this award is or has been requiring its employees or contractors to execute
agreements or statements that prohibit or otherwise restrict (or purport to prohibit or restrict), reporting of
waste, fraud, or abuse as described above, it will immediately stop any further obligations of award funds to

'Q22
Reclassification of various statutory provisions to a new Title 34 of the United States Code
On September 1, 2017, various statutory provisions previously codified elsewhere in the U.S. Code were
editorially reclassified (that is, moved and renumbered) to a new Title 34, entitled "Crime Control and Law
Enforcement." The reclassification encompassed a number of statutory provisions pertinent to OJP awards
(that is, OJP grants and cooperative agreements), including many provisions previously codified in Title 42
of the U.S. Code.
Effective as of September 1, 2017, any reference in this award document to a statutory provision that has
been reclassified to the new Title 34 of the U.S. Code is to be read as a reference to that statutory provision
as reclassified to Title 34. This rule of construction specifically includes references set out in award
conditions, references set out in material incorporated by reference through award conditions, and
references set out in other award requirements.
'Q23
All subawards ("subgrants") must have specific federal authorization
The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable requirements
for authorization of any subaward. This condition applies to agreements that -- for purposes of federal grants
administrative requirements -- OJP considers a "subaward" (and therefore does not consider a procurement
"contract").
The details of the requirement for authorization of any subaward are posted on the OJP web site at
https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/SubawardAuthorization.htm (Award condition: All subawards ("subgrants")
must have specific federal authorization), and are incorporated by reference here.
'Q24
Requirements related to System for Award Management and Universal Identifier Requirements
The recipient must comply with applicable requirements regarding the System for Award Management
(SAM), currently accessible at https://www.sam.gov/. This includes applicable requirements regarding
registration with SAM, as well as maintaining the currency of information in SAM.
The recipient also must comply with applicable restrictions on subawards ("subgrants") to first -tier
subrecipients (first -tier "subgrantees"), including restrictions on subawards to entities that do not acquire and
provide (to the recipient) the unique entity identifier required for SAM registration.
The details of the recipient's obligations related to SAM and to unique entity identifiers are posted on the
OJP web site at https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/SAM.htm (Award condition: System for Award Management
(SAM) and Universal Identifier Requirements), and are incorporated by reference here.
This condition does not apply to an award to an individual who received the award as a natural person (i.e.,
unrelated to any business or non-profit organization that he or she may own or operate in his or her name).
TD25
Restrictions on "lobbying"
In general, as a matter of federal law, federal funds awarded by OJP may not be used by the recipient, or
any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, either directly or indirectly, to support or oppose the enactment,
repeal, modification, or adoption of any law, regulation, or policy, at any level of government. See 18 U.S.C.
1913. (There may be exceptions if an applicable federal statute specifically authorizes certain activities that
otherwise would be barred by law.)
Another federal law generally prohibits federal funds awarded by OJP from being used by the recipient, or
any subrecipient at any tier, to pay any person to influence (or attempt to influence) a federal agency, a
Member of Congress, or Congress (or an official or employee of any of them) with respect to the awarding of
a federal grant or cooperative agreement, subgrant, contract, subcontract, or loan, or with respect to actions
such as renewing, extending, or modifying any such award. See 31 U.S.C. 1352. Certain exceptions to this
law apply, including an exception that applies to Indian tribes and tribal organizations.
Should any question arise as to whether a particular use of federal funds by a recipient (or subrecipient)
would or might fall within the scope of these prohibitions, the recipient is to contact OJP for guidance, and
may not proceed without the express prior written approval of OJP.
r
Specific post -award approval required to use a noncompetitive approach in any procurement contract that
would exceed $250,000
The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable requirements
to obtain specific advance approval to use a noncompetitive approach in any procurement contract that
would exceed the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (currently, $250,000). This condition applies to
agreements that -- for purposes of federal grants administrative requirements -- OJP considers a
procurement "contract" (and therefore does not consider a subaward).
The details of the requirement for advance approval to use a noncompetitive approach in a procurement
contract under an OJP award are posted on the OJP web site at
https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/NoncompetitiveProcurement.htm (Award condition: Specific post -award
approval required to use a noncompetitive approach in a procurement contract (if contract would exceed
$250,000)), and are incorporated by reference here.
M=
Requirements pertaining to prohibited conduct related to trafficking in persons (including reporting
requirements and OJP authority to terminate award)
The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable requirements
(including requirements to report allegations) pertaining to prohibited conduct related to the trafficking of
persons, whether on the part of recipients, subrecipients ("subgrantees"), or individuals defined (for
purposes of this condition) as "employees" of the recipient or of any subrecipient.
The details of the recipient's obligations related to prohibited conduct related to trafficking in persons are
posted on the OJP web site at https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/ProhibitedConduct-Trafficking.htm (Award
condition: Prohibited conduct by recipients and subrecipients related to trafficking in persons (including
reporting requirements and OJP authority to terminate award)), and are incorporated by reference here.
Requirement to report potentially duplicative funding
If the recipient currently has other active awards of federal funds, or if the recipient receives any other award
of federal funds during the period of performance for this award, the recipient promptly must determine
whether funds from any of those other federal awards have been, are being, or are to be used (in whole or
in part) for one or more of the identical cost items for which funds are provided under this award. If so, the
recipient must promptly notify the DOJ awarding agency (OJP or OVW, as appropriate) in writing of the
potential duplication, and, if so requested by the DOJ awarding agency, must seek a budget -modification or
change -of -project -scope Grant Award Modification (GAM) to eliminate any inappropriate duplication of
funding.
�29
Reporting potential fraud, waste, and abuse, and similar misconduct
The recipient, and any subrecipients ("subgrantees") at any tier, must promptly refer to the DOJ Office of the
Inspector General (OIG) any credible evidence that a principal, employee, agent, subrecipient, contractor,
subcontractor, or other person has, in connection with funds under this award-- (1) submitted a claim that
violates the False Claims Act; or (2) committed a criminal or civil violation of laws pertaining to fraud, conflict
of interest, bribery, gratuity, or similar misconduct.
Potential fraud, waste, abuse, or misconduct involving or relating to funds under this award should be
reported to the OIG by--(1) online submission accessible via the OIG webpage at
https://oig.justice.gov/hotline/contact-grants.htm (select "Submit Report Online"); (2) mail directed to: U.S.
Department of Justice, Office of the Inspector General, Investigations Division, ATTN: Grantee Reporting,
950 Pennsylvania Ave., NW, Washington, DC 20530; and/or (3) by facsimile directed to the DOJ OIG
Investigations Division (Attn: Grantee Reporting) at (202) 616-9881 (fax).
Additional information is available from the DOJ OIG website at https://oig.justice.gov/hotline.
'Q30
FFATA reporting: Subawards and executive compensation
The recipient must comply with applicable requirements to report first -tier subawards ("subgrants") of
$30,000 or more and, in certain circumstances, to report the names and total compensation of the five most
highly compensated executives of the recipient and first -tier subrecipients (first -tier "subgrantees") of award
funds. The details of recipient obligations, which derive from the Federal Funding Accountability and
Transparency Act of 2006 (FFATA), are posted on the OJP web site at
https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/FFATA.htm (Award condition: Reporting Subawards and Executive
Compensation), and are incorporated by reference here.
This condition, including its reporting requirement, does not apply to-- (1) an award of less than $30,000, or
(2) an award made to an individual who received the award as a natural person (i.e., unrelated to any
business or non-profit organization that he or she may own or operate in his or her name).
M31
The recipient agrees to comply with OJP grant monitoring guidelines, protocols, and procedures, and to
cooperate with BJA and OCFO on all grant monitoring requests, including requests related to desk reviews,
enhanced programmatic desk reviews, and/or site visits. The recipient agrees to provide to BJA and OCFO
all documentation necessary to complete monitoring tasks, including documentation related to any
subawards made under this award. Further, the recipient agrees to abide by reasonable deadlines set by
BJA and OCFO for providing the requested documents. Failure to cooperate with BJA's/OCFO's grant
monitoring activities may result in sanctions affecting the recipient's DOJ awards, including, but not limited
to: withholdings and/or other restrictions on the recipient's access to grant funds; referral to the Office of the
Inspector General for audit review; designation of the recipient as a DOJ High Risk grantee; or termination
of an award(s).
M32
Required monitoring of subawards
The recipient must monitor subawards under this award in accordance with all applicable statutes,
regulations, award conditions, and the DOJ Grants Financial Guide, and must include the applicable

'Q35
Avoidance of duplication of networks
To avoid duplicating existing networks or IT systems in any initiatives funded by BJA for law enforcement
information sharing systems which involve interstate connectivity between jurisdictions, such systems shall
employ, to the extent possible, existing networks as the communication backbone to achieve interstate
connectivity, unless the recipient can demonstrate to the satisfaction of BJA that this requirement would not
be cost effective or would impair the functionality of an existing or proposed IT system.
Compliance with 28 C.F.R. Part 23
With respect to any information technology system funded or supported by funds under this award, the
recipient (and any subrecipient at any tier) must comply with 28 C.F.R. Part 23, Criminal Intelligence
Systems Operating Policies, if OJP determines this regulation to be applicable. Should OJP determine 28
C.F.R. Part 23 to be applicable, OJP may, at its discretion, perform audits of the system, as per the
regulation. Should any violation of 28 C.F.R. Part 23 occur, the recipient may be fined as per 34 U.S.C.
10231(c)-(d). The recipient may not satisfy such a fine with federal funds.
Protection of human research subjects

'Q44
Compliance with National Environmental Policy Act and related statutes
Upon request, the recipient (and any subrecipient at any tier) must assist BJA in complying with the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), the National Historic Preservation Act, and other related federal
environmental impact analyses requirements in the use of these award funds, either directly by the recipient
or by a subrecipient. Accordingly, the recipient agrees to first determine if any of the following activities will
be funded by the grant, prior to obligating funds for any of these purposes. If it is determined that any of the
following activities will be funded by the award, the recipient agrees to contact BJA.
The recipient understands that this condition applies to new activities as set out below, whether or not they
are being specifically funded with these award funds. That is, as long as the activity is being conducted by
the recipient, a subrecipient, or any third party, and the activity needs to be undertaken in order to use these
award funds, this condition must first be met. The activities covered by this condition are:
a. New construction;
b. Minor renovation or remodeling of a property located in an environmentally or historically sensitive area,
including properties located within a 100-year flood plain, a wetland, or habitat for endangered species, or a
property listed on or eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places;
c. A renovation, lease, or any proposed use of a building or facility that will either (a) result in a change in its
basic prior use or (b) significantly change its size;
d. Implementation of a new program involving the use of chemicals other than chemicals that are (a)
purchased as an incidental component of a funded activity and (b) traditionally used, for example, in office,
household, recreational, or education environments; and
e. Implementation of a program relating to clandestine methamphetamine laboratory operations, including
the identification, seizure, or closure of clandestine methamphetamine laboratories.
The recipient understands and agrees that complying with NEPA may require the preparation of an
Environmental Assessment and/or an Environmental Impact Statement, as directed by BJA. The recipient
further understands and agrees to the requirements for implementation of a Mitigation Plan, as detailed at
https://bja.gov/Funding/nepa.htmi, for programs relating to methamphetamine laboratory operations.
Application of This Condition to Recipient's Existing Programs or Activities: For any of the recipient's or its
subrecipients' existing programs or activities that will be funded by these award funds, the recipient, upon
specific request from BJA, agrees to cooperate with BJA in any preparation by BJA of a national or program
environmental assessment of that funded program or activity.
M45
Establishment of trust fund
If award funds are being drawn down in advance, the recipient (or a subrecipient, with respect to a
subaward) is required to establish a trust fund account. Recipients (and subrecipients) must maintain
advance payments of federal awards in interest -bearing accounts, unless regulatory exclusions apply (2
C.F.,R.200.305(b)(8)). The trust fund, including any interest, may not be used to pay debts or expenses
incurred by other activities beyond the scope of the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant
Program (JAG). The recipient also agrees to obligate the award funds in the trust fund (including any
interestearned) during the period of performance for the award and expend within 90 days thereafter. Any
unobligated or unexpended funds, including interest earned, must be returned to OJP at the time of
closeout.
All State and Local JAG recipients must submit quarterly Federal Financial Reports (SF-425). Additionally,
State JAG and Local JAG Category Two ($25K or more) must submit semi-annual performance reports
through JustGrants and Local JAG Category One (Less than $25K) must submit annual performance
reports through JustGrants. Consistent with the Department's responsibilities under the Government
Performance and Results Act (GPRA) and the GPRA Modernization Act of 2010, the recipient must provide
data that measure the results of its work. The recipient must submit quarterly performance metrics reports
through BJA's Performance Measurement Tool (PMT) website (www.bjaperformancetools.org). For more

webpage. Failure to submit required JAG reports by established deadlines may result in the freezing of grant
funds and future High Risk designation.
'ffk7
Required data on law enforcement agency training
Any law enforcement agency receiving direct or sub -awarded funding from this JAG award must submit
quarterly accountability metrics data related to training that officers have received on the use of force, racial
and ethnic bias, de-escalation of conflict, and constructive engagement with the public.
Expenditures prohibited without waiver
No funds under this award may be expended on the purchase of items prohibited by the JAG program
statute, unless, as set forth at 34 U.S.C. 10152, the BJA Director certifies that extraordinary and exigent
circumstances exist, making such expenditures essential to the maintenance of public safety and good
order.
Authorization to obligate (federal) award funds to reimburse certain project costs incurred on or after
October 1, 2021
The recipient may obligate (federal) award funds only after the recipient makes a valid acceptance of the
award. As of the first day of the period of performance for the award (October 1, 2021), however, the
recipient may choose to incur project costs using non-federal funds, but any such project costs are incurred
at the recipient's risk until, at a minimum-- (1) the recipient makes a valid acceptance of the award, and (2)
all applicable withholding conditions are removed by OJP (via an Award Condition Modification (ACM)). (A
withholding condition is a condition in the award document that precludes the recipient from obligating,
expending, or drawing down all or a portion of the award funds until the condition is removed.)
Except to the extent (if any) that an award condition expressly precludes reimbursement of project costs
incurred "at -risk," if and when the recipient makes a valid acceptance of this award and OJP removes each
applicable withholding condition through an Award Condition Modification (ACM), the recipient is authorized
to obligate (federal) award funds to reimburse itself for project costs incurred "at -risk" earlier during the
period of performance (such as project costs incurred prior to award acceptance or prior to removal of an
applicable withholding condition), provided that those project costs otherwise are allowable costs under the
award.
M5®
If award funds are used for DNA testing of evidentiary materials, any resulting eligible DNA profiles must be
uploaded to the Combined DNA Index System ("CODIS," the DNA database operated by the FBI) by a
government DNA laboratory with access to CODIS. No profiles generated under this award may be entered
or uploaded into any non -governmental DNA database without prior express written approval from BJA.
Award funds may not be used for the purchase of DNA equipment and supplies unless the resulting DNA
profiles may be accepted for entry into CODIS. Booking agencies should work with their state CODIS
agency to ensure all requirements are met for participation in Rapid DNA (see National Rapid DNA Booking
Operational Procedures Manual).
