SUMMARY:DOI Tribal Consultation: CSC calculation and distribution process
DESCRIPTION:Dear Tribal Leader Letter \nOctober 1 at 1:00 pm – 4:00 pm Mountain: Listening Session\n2023 NAFOA Fall Finance & Tribal Economies Conference\nSheraton Grand at Wild Horse Pass\n5594 W Wild Horse Pass Blvd.\nPhoenix\, AZ 85226 \nOctober 5 at 2:00 pm – 5:00 pm Eastern: Virtual Consultation with Assistant Secretary – Indian Affairs Bryan Newland\nRegister \nNovember 1 at 1:30 pm – 3:00 pm Eastern: Tribal Consultation\nUS Department of Labor\, Indian and Native American Programs\nWorkforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) 166/477\nWestern Regional Training\nPechanga Resort Casino\n45000 Pechanga Pkwy.\nTemecula\, CA 92592 \nNovember 29 at 1:00 pm – 4:00 pm Alaska: Tribal Consultation\nBIA Providers Conference Dena’ina Center\n600 W 7th Ave.\nAnchorage\, AK 99501 \nThe Policy is available at this link. \nIndian Affairs would like to determine how to compensate Self Governance Tribes for CSC\, when they\nare NOT required to submit budgets\, yet certain data is necessary to calculate the amount of CSC due\nto the Tribe annually. \n\nIs the Federal proposal of two data calls\, one on recurring base funding and a second at the end\nof the year a viable proposal?\nThe Workgroup Federal representatives recommend that two data calls be released at least 30\ndays prior to due dates. The recommended due dates for base funding CSC data are September\n1 for fiscal year funding agreements and November 1 for calendar year funding agreements.\nThe recommended due date for full-year data is July 1 for fiscal year funding agreements and\nOctober 1 for calendar year funding agreements. Should this or another calculation and\npayment schedule be considered?\nThere are a small number of Self Governance Tribes that have not submitted year-end CSC\ndata\, therefore the annual 100 percent requirement is unknown. What is the Tribal\nrecommendation regarding this matter?\nIn lieu of negotiating Direct CSC line by line\, the CSC Policy formula for ALL tribes is below.\nDCSC = (current Tribal budgeted salary cost {not including fringe} of section 106(a)(1)\nprograms) x 18%.\nThe DCSC need cannot be calculated in accordance with the CSC Policy\, and in the same\nequitable manner as Tribes entering into contracts under Title I\, without receipt of a Tribe’s\n“budgeted salary cost.” The CSC Policy would need to be changed to allow the use of “best\navailable” data or data that is 4 years old.\na) Is there support for changing the CSC Policy to utilize “best available” data or salaries up to\nfour years old for DCSC?\nHow would the Department reconcile ensuring equitable treatment with Title I contracts\nsubmitting current budgets (with salary and fringe) that equal the current year contract\namounts?\n Section 1.10 of the CSC Policy outlines the formula for calculating Indirect CSC:\nIndirect CSC = Current approved IDC rate(s) x (the Secretarial Amount awarded to the\nTribe\, minus exclusions and pass-through).\nThe CSC Policy explicitly clarifies that a “current” IDC rate can be up to four years old. If a\nTribe has no approved IDC rate or has an approved IDC rate that is over four years old\, the\nTribe may negotiate a lump sum amount for indirect-type costs or may utilize the Simplified\nMethod\, if applicable. Furthermore\, Section 1.10 of the Policy states\, “[i]f a Tribe does not\ninitiate any of these options\, IA will not pay the Tribe any indirect CSC.”\nWhile the CSC Policy allows for an IDC rate that is up to four years old\, it does not allow for\nuse of previous years’ salary\, fringe\, exclusion or passthrough data to calculate the current year\n100 percent CSC need. The CSC Policy would need to be changed to allow the use of “best\navailable” data.\na) Does the Tribe support changing the CSC Policy to utilize “best available” data?\nb) If so\, what sources should be considered “best available” data for calculations of CSC for\nthe data elements of 1) Tribal Budgeted Salary 2) Tribal Budgeted Fringe (if necessary);\nand 3) Exclusions and pass-throughs?\nc) If a Tribe does not submit current year data\, at what point would IA utilize “best available”\ndata for calculation and payment?\nSection 1.12 of the CSC Policy outlines cutoff timeframes for IDC rates as below.\nIn order to facilitate equitable treatment and establish standard cutoff timeframes:\n• The IDC rate that will be applied is the applicable rate at the end of the Tribe’s fiscal\nyear. No adjustments to that IDC rate will be made after the end of the Tribe’s fiscal\nyear\, without regard to the later issuance of a different DC rate for that period.\n\nThey welcome your written comments\, which should be submitted by email to consultations@bia.gov by\n11:59 pm ET on December 29\, 2023. \nIf you have any questions regarding this effort\, please contact Jacob Aguilar\, Financial Specialist\,\nOSG\, at (360) 699-1015 or via email: jacob.aguilar@bia.gov.

SUMMARY:Consultation: SLFRF Interim Final Rule (Obligation IFR)
DESCRIPTION:Dear Tribal Leader\, \nToday\, the U.S. Department of the Treasury (Treasury) published a new interim final rule for the State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF) program. This interim final rule (Obligation IFR) provides additional flexibility and clarity for recipients regarding the definition of “obligation” and associated guidance. The Obligation IFR clarifies the application of the statutory obligation deadline of December 31\, 2024\, to subrecipients and contractors\, and provides guidance on the circumstances under which contracts and subawards entered into prior to the obligation deadline may be amended or replaced. It does not alter the existing obligation and expenditure deadlines or eligible use categories\, including how recipients may use SLFRF funds under the revenue loss eligible use category. Recipients must continue to obligate funds by December 31\, 2024\, and expend funds by December 31\, 2026 (other than in the case of SLFRF funds used for Surface Transportation projects or Title I projects\, which must be expended by September 30\, 2026). \nTo support SLFRF recipients in their understanding of the Obligation IFR\, on November 16th\, Treasury will host a webinar. During the two sessions listed below\, Treasury will provide an overview of the new Obligation IFR\, including explaining the amended definition of “obligation” and highlighting key examples of how related guidance and clarifications apply to implementation of SLFRF funds. Recipients will have the opportunity to submit questions in advance for the Q&A portion of the webinar. Recipients can follow along with the Obligation IFR Quick Reference Guide. Treasury is also hosting a Tribal consultation on the Obligation IFR on November 29\, 2023. The Dear Tribal Leader letter and information on how to register may be found below. \nSign Up for the Upcoming Webinar \n\nMorning Session: November 16th at 10:00 AM ET\nAfternoon Session: November 16th at 3:00 PM ET\n\nTribal Consultation\n\nWednesday\, November 29\, 2023\, 2-5pm ET – Treasury is hosting a Tribal Consultation on the Obligation IFR.  You may find the Dear Tribal Leader Letter here. \nYou may register for the consultation here. \nTreasury is accepting written comments received by December 22\, 2023\, 11:59 p.m. Alaska Time.
