1.6 Do the Federal agencies have flexibility to issue further program - specific <br />guidance on recipient reporting? <br />This Guidance is not intended to impact requirements outside of Section 1512 of the <br />Recovery Act. The Recovery Act may contain additional recipient reporting <br />responsibilities that are specific to certain Federal programs. Recipients will have to <br />comply with any reporting as outlined in the award agreement, which may result in <br />submitting similar data under this Guidance to the Federal awarding agency. In these <br />areas, recipients should rely on program - specific guidance and instructions issued by the <br />relevant Federal agency. <br />Thus, it is anticipated that Federal agencies will, as appropriate, issue clarifying guidance <br />to funding recipients. Additional guidance for Recovery funding recipients must be in <br />accordance with OMB guidance. Federal agency - specific reporting guidance must not, <br />without prior approval from OMB, require the use of any existing reporting systems to <br />collect Section 1512 reporting that exclude or bypass the central reporting solution at <br />www.FederaiReporting.gov. See also Section 2.8. <br />1.7 What is the process for the public to provide input or comment on the <br />provisions of this Guidance? <br />Feedback about this guidance document may be submitted to recovery(c)omb.eop.gov <br />and should have the term "guidance feedback" in the title of the email. Further, the <br />Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board ( "Board ") expects to issue a separate <br />Federal Register notice as part of the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) clearance process. <br />This Federal Register notice follows the original PRA notice published April 1, 2009. <br />The public will have an opportunity to comment through the updated PRA notice which <br />will include the new data elements added to the Section 1512 reporting model as <br />described in Section 2 of this Guidance. <br />1.8 What additional Recovery Act Implementation Guidance is available? <br />February 20, 2009 M -09 -10 Initial Implementing Guidance for the American Recovery <br />and Reinvestment Act of 2009 <br />http: / /www.whitehouse.F4ov /omb /assets /memoranda fy2009 /m09lO pdf <br />February 25, 2009 Bulletin No.09 -02 Budget Execution of the American Recovery and <br />Reinvestment Act of 2009 Appropriations <br />ht!p://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/assetsibulletinsibO9-02.pd <br />March 2009 OMB Circular No. A -133 Single Audit Compliance Supplement <br />hqp: / /www.whitehouse.p,ov /omb /circulars a133 compliance 09toc/ <br />April 3, 2009 M -09 -15 Updated Implementing Guidance for the American <br />Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 <br />hitp: / /www.whitehouse.gov /omb /assets /memoranda fy2009/m09 -15 pdf <br />May 11, 2009 M -09 -18 Payments to State Grantees for Administrative Costs of <br />Recovery Act Activities <br />http: / /www.whitehouse.gov /omb / assets /memoranda fy2009 /m09 -18pdf <br />
