VI. Award Administration Information 

1. Award Notices: FAS will notify 

each applicant in writing of the final 

disposition of its application. FAS will 

send a letter to each approved applicant 

that will specify the amount of funding. 

Once the approved applicant receives 

this letter, FAS will begin negotiations 

with the program participant to develop 

a grant agreement. The agreement will 

incorporate the details of the project as 

approved by FAS and in accordance 

with the McGovern-Dole Program 

regulations, 7 CFR part 1599. Approved 

applicants will not receive funding 

under the MFFAPP until the agreement 

negotiation is complete and the 

agreement has been signed by 

authorized representatives of the 

applicant and FAS. 

2. Reporting: An organization 

receiving funding under the MFFAPP 

will be required to provide quarterly 

financial reports, semi-annual logistics 

and monitoring reports, and a final 

evaluation report, as provided in the 

grant agreement. In its final evaluation 

report, the organization will be required 

to use supporting evidence gathered 

during the pilot to describe the benefits 

and drawbacks of the new product to 

the population and to address the 

benefits or drawbacks of the new or 

improved product as compared to 

traditional food assistance commodities. 

Changes in the original project timelines 

and adjustments within project budgets 

must be approved by FAS prior to their 

implementation. 

3. Monitoring and Evaluation: A 

program participant shall submit to 

FAS, in the manner specified in the 

agreement, an annual financial audit in 

accordance with 7 CFR 1599.13(d). If 

FAS requires an annual financial audit 

with respect to a particular agreement, 

and FAS provides funds for this 

purpose, the participant shall arrange 

for such audit and submit it to FAS, in 

the manner specified in the agreement. 

The participant shall provide to FAS 

additional information or reports 

relating to the agreement if requested by 

FAS.
