Title to equipment purchased or fabricated with IMLS funds belongs to your organization with the understanding that the equipment will be used for the approved project. We reserve the right to request the transfer of title to the federal government or to a third party when the current per - unit fair market value of the equipment is $5,000 or more and the equipment is no longer needed to carry out the purposes of the project or other projects funded by government agencies. Title to supplies and other expendable property belongs to you upon acquisition. If there are unused supplies exceeding $5,000 in total aggregate value upon termination or completion of the project and the supplies are not needed for any other federally sponsored project or program, you may keep the supplies for use on non - Federal sponsored activities or sell them, but must, in either case, compensate the Federal Government for its share. 19. What are the rules for travel costs? Travel costs are the expenses for transportation, lodging, subsistence, and related items incurred by those on grant - related official business. Such costs may bo charged on an actual basis, on a per diem or mileage basis in lieu of actual costs, or on a combination of the two. The chosen method must be consistent with those normally allowed by your organization, as stated in your written travel policy. Travelers must use the lowest commercial discount or customary standard (coach) airfare unless such accommodations are not reasonably available to accomplish the purpose of travel. 22. Are there additional rules for foreign travel? For the purposes of these Terms and Conditions, foreign travel includes any travel outside Canada, Mexico, the United States, and any United States territories and possessions.

Each separate foreign trip must be itemized in the budget approved by IMLS. Foreign travel that is not included in the approved project budget must be specifically approved in writing by the appropriate IMLS program officer.
