Exhibit A <br />July 23, 2025 <br />5 <br /> <br /> <br />III. Device-Based Inspection Procedures <br />For residential and commercial devices rebated through Metropolitan’s regional rebate program, <br />device-based inspections will be conducted primarily by Metropolitan, at its discretion. On occasion, <br />MWDOC and/or Participant Agency may be requested to conduct inspections for devices rebated <br />through Metropolitan’s regional rebate program. For devices rebated through a MWDOC and/or a <br />Participant Agency-Administered Program (MAA Program), the inspection procedures are set forth <br />below. <br /> <br />Member/Participant Agency must maintain as part of its invoice package all necessary back-up documentation to <br />substantiate the costs on the invoice. This documentation, to be available upon request by Metropolitan, will <br />include, but not be limited to, the following: <br /> <br />• If project performed by an outside contractor or vendor provide contract agreement or <br />purchase order. <br />• All extra work order(s) approved by the agency. <br />• Progress payment requests or invoices from vendor or contractor. If payments are made <br />on a schedule of values basis provide sufficient detail to substantiate any and all line- <br />item charges. <br />• Photographs, inspection reports, or any other record that will assist in the review of the <br />costs incurred by Member/Participant Agency. <br /> <br />In order for Member/Participant Agency to be reimbursed for incentives, Member/Participant Agency <br />must certify on each invoice that the terms contained within each project have been met, all devices <br />have been installed, and all work has been performed. Metropolitan will develop a tailored inspection <br />plan for each project and provide it to the Member/Participant Agency upon project proposal <br />approval. The Member/Participant Agency is required to adhere to this plan and must provide <br />documentation outlined within the plan upon request. <br /> <br />Metropolitan may perform onsite inspections of projects prior to payment or at any time. Inspection <br />results may affect payment made to Member/Participant Agency or may be billed to <br />Member/Participant Agency if already paid. <br /> <br />Metropolitan will review invoices and, if necessary, request back-up documentation to substantiate <br />costs. If documentation is not sufficient, an additional request will be made. If the back-up documents <br />provided do not properly and sufficiently justify the requested cost at the discretion of Metropolitan <br />all, or any part of, Metropolitan reserves the right to make an independent estimate using the back-up <br />documents provided and issue a unilateral payment. In case where there is no back up or the <br />documentation provided is insufficient to make an independent estimate Metropolitan reserves the <br />right to deny the request for payment. Metropolitan reserves the right to verify and inspect any <br />approved projects at any time. <br /> <br />All projects that require inspection must be inspected prior to Member/Participant Agency invoicing <br />Metropolitan. Member/Participant Agency may not use Member Agency Administered Program <br />funding to meet Metropolitan’s imposed inspection plan for any approved projects. <br />"!#  <br />       <br />
