Summary
Would have required the Department of General Services to establish, by July 1, 2023, a State standard negotiated cost agreement for awarding State grants that are created on or after July 1, 2023, to grantees that do not have an existing negotiated indirect cost rate agreement and cost allocation policy approved by the federal government. The bill would have required any State grant program created on or after January 1, 2023, to require the State agency administering the grant to use the same terms as contained in the grantee’s existing negotiated indirect cost rate agreements and cost allocation policies approved by the federal government. The bill would have required a State agency administering those programs to use, on and after July 1, 2023, the same terms as contained in the grantee’s State standard negotiated cost agreement. The bill would have required these State agencies to authorize a grantee that is a nonprofit organization and that does not have an existing federal negotiated indirect cost rate agreement or existing State standard negotiated cost agreement to instead be compensated for indirect costs pursuant to specified methods. Held on suspense in the Assembly Appropriations Committee.
