<p class="MsoNormal"><b><u>Verbal Contracts/Agreements:</u></b> We have had some questions about verbal agreements where eligible
<span style="color:#1F497D">PA </span>applicants may have made verbal agreements with other entities to provide services (food, shelter, etc). If legally responsible SLTT governments enter into agreements with private organizations or PNPs verbally they should
formalize the agreements in writing as soon as possible in order to receive reimbursement through FEMA PA. If the SLTT wants to acquire goods and services through a PNP, this would be considered a contract pursuant to 2 C.F.R. § 200.330(c). In sum, as a contract,
the SLTT may be able to sole-source, depending on its rules, and it must be mindful of the requirement to include all required contract provisions.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><u>Update on progress on draft medical costs policy:</u></b> This policy is working its way through the process and HQ PA is optimistic it will be out soon, perhaps as early as tomorrow (but no promises!). The draft we saw earlier did
significantly clarify the eligibility of different types of costs related to medical care and we are optimistic it will resolve a number of questions here in Region X when the final policy does come out.

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><u>Treasury Coronavirus Relief Fund and Duplication of Benefits:</u></b> This is the same information that we included in our daily email update a few days ago, but we wanted to provide this again. The Department of the Treasury further
updated its <a href="https://home.treasury.gov/policy-issues/cares/state-and-local-governments">
Coronavirus Relief Fund guidance</a> this week. Last night they added information about eligibility of Alaskan Native Corporations; Wednesday they added guidance for SLTT eligible recipients and an FAQ. Treasury informs us that they will continue to update
the FAQ and guidance as they work through implementation issues. The current guidance does not explicitly answer many questions that may arise, especially around duplication of benefits. HQ is currently working on additional guidance for avoiding duplication
of benefits; we had a call with HQ today where they reiterated that we will continue to obligated funding for PA eligible costs with applicant certification that they have not received other federal funding for those same costs. There may be applicants who
receive PA funds and then want to seek reimbursement under a different authority, and in those cases we will have to deobligate FEMA funding.

effort, FEMA is also coordinating with other agencies to ensure that Federal assistance is not duplicated from various sources. Section 312 of the Stafford Act prohibits FEMA from providing financial assistance where it would duplicate funding from another
program, insurance, or any other source for the same costs. Applicants should not request funding for costs that are being claimed or paid for by other sources of funding. If FEMA or the Recipient later determines an Applicant has paid for costs using funding
from another federal agency, FEMA may de-obligate funding and the Applicant will have to demonstrate that duplicate funding was not provided.
