FY 2006 HOMELAND SECURITY GRANT PROGRAM - DECEMBER 2, 2005 Within 60 days of the grant award, the SAA will submit a prioritization of investments based upon the final grant award amounts and a certification that funds have been passed through to local units of government (to include the identification of subgrantees and sub-award amounts.) B. Drawdown of Funds Following the acceptance of the grant award and the release of any special conditions withholding funds, the grantee can drawdown funds through the following methods: the Automated Standard Application for Payments (ASAP), Phone Activated Paperless Response System (P APRS), or Letter Of Credit Electronic Certification System (LOCES). In support of continuing efforts to meet the accelerated financial statement reporting requirements mandated by the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), payment processing will be interrupted during the last five (5) working days of each month. SAAs should make payment requests before the last five working days of the month to avoid delays in deposit of payments. For example, for the month of September, the last day to request (drawdown) payments was September 23, 2005. Payments requested after September 23,2005, will be processed when the regular schedule resumed on October 1,2005. A similar schedule will follow at the end of each month thereafter. To avoid denial of payment requests, grantees are encouraged to submit their SF269a FSRs online at httn:l/grants.oin.usdoi.gov. Additional information and instructions are available at this website. Questions regarding grant payments should be addressed to the OlP OC at 1-800-458-0786 or email askoc(Cvoin.usdoi.gov. Questions regarding all other financial/administrative issues should be addressed to the OGO Information Line at l-866-9ASKOGO (927-5646) or email at ask-ogo@dhs.gov. C.
