assistance under federal programs and is charged with maintaining compliance with federal
and state laws and regulations regarding the monitoring, documentation, and auditing of
subrecipient grant activities using federal financial assistance. Management and

guidelines, the sub -award agreement, Office of Management and Budget (OMB) circulars
(including OMB Circular A -133), subrecipient audits, and other guidance found in the Federal
Register The Department shall adhere to its Subrecipient Monitoring Policy and the

Monitoring involves prudent collection of information about Contractor operations and is not
limited to site visits or the completion of formal reviews. Monitoring may include periodic
contractor reporting to the Department, Department review of audit reports, invoice reviews,
onsite reviews and observations, and surveys. Adequate documentation is essential for
effective contract monitoring and will include copies of letters, meeting notes, and records of
phone conversations as evidence that conscientious monitoring has occurred during the period
of the contract. Subrecipient monitoring will occur throughout the year rather than relying solely
on a once -a -year audit. The Contractor agrees to cooperate with all monitoring activities and to
comply with reporting requirements.

appropriate and required by contract for "for- profit" subrecipients, since the A -133 Single

to this contract and the provision of any materials, supplies, services and /or equipment under

performance of this contract. At no additional cost, these records, including materials generated
under the contract, shall be subject at all reasonable times to inspection, review and audit by
personnel duly authorized by the Department, the Washington State Auditor's Office, and
federal officials so authorized by law, rule, regulation, or contract. The Contractor will retain all
books, records, documents, and other materials relevant to this contract and make them

of final payment or conclusion of services performed under this contractor, whichever is later If

shall be retained until final resolution of all litigation, claims, or audit findings involving the

Statement of Work
FFY 2007 State Homeland Security Program
INTRODUCTION:
The Washington State Military Department Emergency Management Division's (EMD) Homeland Security
Section is responsible for programs designed to prepare and improve the State's ability to respond to a
Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear and Explosive (CBRNE) attack. Through the FFY07 Homeland
Security Grant Program (HSGP), State Homeland Security Program (SHSP) the Department is providing funds
to enhance the capability of state and local units of government to prevent, deter, respond to, and recover from
incidents of terrorism. The FFY07 grant guidance also provides funding for planning, training, and exercise
activities related to catastrophic events, when the benefit to terrorism preparedness can be justified.
King County Office of Emergency Management (herein known as the Contractor) agrees to the following tasks:
GENERAL PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS:
1. Work closely with the established Regional Homeland Security Council to develop a strategy and
subsequent budget for the use of these funds. The implementation of the projects or activities associated
with these funds will be coordinated with the counties, cities, and the tribal governments located within
the established region.
2. Prepare and submit a Bi- Annual Strategy Implementation Report (BSIR), via the web -based grant
reporting tool. Failure to meet all of the reporting deadlines outlined in the Milestone and Timeline
Schedule will prohibit the,Contractor from being reimbursed while reports are outstanding.
3 Electronically submit progress reports. Failure to meet all of the reporting deadlines outlined in the
Timeline will prohibit the Contractor from being reimbursed and will put a freeze on the processing of
equipment approvals, while reports are outstanding.
4. Adhere to all financial and procurement guidance, including competitive processes and other
procurement requirements as documented in the Department of Homeland Security Financial Guide
found at http. / /www.dhs.gov /xlibrary /assets /Grants FinancialManagementGuide.pdf. Local and state
procurement and contracting regulations take precedent over these requirements when local and state
regulations are more stringent.
• Adhere to OGT requirements that all sole source contracts over $100,000 be reviewed and approved
by the Department prior to execution of a contract. This requirement must be passed on to all of the
Contractor's sub - contractors, at which point the Contractor will be responsible for reviewing and

bid, and where the consultant will be charging an excess of $450 per day (excluding travel and
subsistence) must be approved by the Department before the contract is executed. This requirement
must be passed on to all of the Contractor's sub - contractors, at which point the Contractor will be
responsible for reviewing and approving their sub - contractors' contract.
5. The Contractor is required to ensure that all of their sub - grantees and sub - contractors are in compliance
with the FFY07 Homeland Security Grant Guidance through monitoring of expenditures and penodic
