the State unique funding technique how the estimated amount is determined and when and how the State will reconcile

the difference between the estimate and the State's actual expenditures.

6.1.5 Supplemental Funding:

Unless otherwise defined by program rules, Supplemental Funding is the award of additional funds to provide for an

increase in costs due to unforeseen circumstances.

The State will comply with all Federal program agency policies and procedures for requesting supplemental grant funding.

The State will comply with the following guidelines when requesting supplemental funding for the Medical Assistance

Program and associated administrative payments (CFDA 93.778):

The State must submit a revised Medicaid Program Budget Report (CMS-37) to request supplemental funding. The CMS

guidelines and instructions for completing the CMS-37 are provided in Section 2600F of the State Medicaid Manual

(SMM). The CMS/CO must receive the revised Form CMS-37 through the Medicaid Budget Expenditure

Page 3 of 26
System/Children's Budget Expenditure System (MBES/CBES) no later than 10 calendar days before the end of the

quarter for which the supplemental grant award is being requested.

Additional guidance on this policy is available from the respective CMS Regional Office, U.S. Department of Health &

Human Services.

The State will comply with the following guidelines when requesting supplemental funding for TANF (CFDA 93.558),

CCDF (CFDA 93.575), CSE (93.563), and the FC/AA (CFDA 93.658 and CFDA 93.659) programs administered by the

U.S. Department of Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (HHS/ACF):

a. Timing of the Request

A State should initiate its request for supplemental funding during a quarter as soon as it becomes aware of the fact that a

shortfall does/will exist. For the TANF and CCDF grants, supplemental funding requests (estimates) may be submitted by

a State, for consideration by ACF, up through and including the 15th day of the third month of the first, second or third

quarter of any fiscal year. Since TANF and CCDF are block grant programs, all unawarded portions of the annual

allotment will automatically be issued at the beginning of the fourth quarter. Therefore, supplemental funding requests will

not be available during the fourth quarter for these programs. For the CSE and FC/AA programs, supplemental funding

requests may be submitted by a state, for consideration by ACF, up through and including the 15th day of the third month

of any quarter of a fiscal year.

b. Justification for the Request

The request for a supplemental funding for any of the above mentioned programs should contain a justification clearly

documenting the need for the additional funding authority during the current quarter. This documentation should be in the

form of State accounting records or similar documents that will show the actual expenditures through the most recent

month for which such data are available, as well as the State's most accurate projection of its anticipated expenditures

during the remaining month(s) of the quarter. For either the TANF or the CCDF program, the State's justification should

also include an explanation of the activities requiring the obligation and/or expenditure of amounts that exceed the normal

quarterly grant award restrictions and why these activities could not have been delayed until the next quarter.

c. Form Submittal

Supplemental funding requests should be made by completing the appropriate ACF quarterly report of expenditures and

estimates applicable to the particular program for which the grant award request is being made.

d. Approval Process

Upon receipt of the state's request for additional funding authority for a quarter, the ACF Regional Office will promptly

review the supporting documentation. If the request is properly justified, so long as ACF has adequate funding

availability, the State's request will be expedited and supplemental funding will be issued within 5 days of ACF receiving

the request. The State will be notified by the Regional Office when the supplemental award has been transmitted to the

Payment Management System (PMS) and when it may initiate drawdowns against the supplemental funding.

Additional guidance on this policy is provided in the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, Administration for

Children and Families, letter (May 19, 2004) to State Administrators from the Deputy Assistant Secretary for

Administration.

6.2 Description of Funding Techniques

Page 4 of 26
6.2.1 The following are terms under which standard funding techniques shall be implemented for all transfers of funds to

which the funding technique is applied in section 6.3.2 of this Agreement.

Actual Clearance, ZBA - ACH

The State shall request funds such that they are deposited by ACH in a State account on the settlement date of payments

issued by the State. The request shall be made in accordance with the appropriate Federal agency cut-off time specified

in Exhibit I. The amount of the request shall be for the amount of funds that clear the State's account on the settlement

date. This funding technique is interest neutral.

Actual Clearance, ZBA - Same Day Payment

The State shall request funds the same day it pays out funds, in accordance with the appropriate Federal agency cut-off

time specified in Exhibit I. A Federal agency will deposit funds in a State account the same day as requested. The amount

of the request shall be for the amount of funds that clear the State's account that day. This funding technique is interest

neutral.

Average Clearance

The State shall request funds such that they are deposited by ACH on the dollar-weighted average day of clearance for

the disbursement, in accordance with the clearance pattern specified in Exhibit II. The request shall be made in

accordance with the appropriate Federal agency cut-off time specified in Exhibit I. The amount of the request shall be for

the exact amount of that disbursement. This funding technique is interest neutral.

6.2.2 The following are terms under which funding techniques for administrative costs shall be implemented for all

transfers of funds to which the funding technique is applied in section 6.3.2 of this Agreement.

There are no funding techniques listed in Section 6.2.2

6.2.3 The following are terms under which miscellaneous funding techniques shall be implemented for all transfers of

funds to which the funding technique is applied in section 6.3.2 of this Agreement.

Capitalization Grants for State Revolving Funds

The State shall request funds to minimize the time between the drawdown of funds from Treasury and their deposit into

the revolving fund. The timing of the drawdown of Federal funds for deposit to the revolving fund is subject to the interest

provisions of 31 CFR Part 205, however there is an interest exemption for the interest the State earns once the funds are

deposited into the revolving fund. The request for funds shall be made in accordance with the appropriate Federal agency

cut-off time specified in Exhibit I. The amount of the request shall be for the amount of the funds to be used for immediate

program purposes. The State will not incur an interest liability for interest earned on revolving fund loans. This funding

technique is interest neutral.

Reverse Flow Program - SSI (CFDA 96.006)

In accordance with the terms in Section 9.0 of this Agreement, the Federal Government makes payments on behalf of the

State for the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program, CFDA No. 96.006. This funding technique is interest neutral.

6.2.4 The following are terms under which State unique funding techniques shall be implemented for all transfers of funds

to which the funding technique is applied in section 6.3.2 of this Agreement.

Page 5 of 26
Bi-Weekly Actual

The State will request funds bi-weekly based on the actual expenditures incurred during the previous two-week period.

The request shall be made in accordance with the appropriate Federal agency cut-off time specified in Exhibit I. The

amount of each request shall equal the total actual expenditures posted during the State's bi-weekly billing cycle. Since

expenditures using this funding technique are incurred in both the payroll and vendor bank accounts, the State will not

apply a clearance pattern to this funding technique and agrees that no federal interest liability will result, provided that

federal funds are available and deposited in accordance with the cut-off times specified in Exhibit I. This funding

technique is interest neutral.

Payment Schedule-Quarterly Estimates-Other

Funds will be requested weekly for deposit on the median day of each week. The request shall be made in accordance

with the appropriate Federal agency cut-off time specified in Exhibit I. The amount of the drawdown shall be based on

quarterly estimates and shall be requested in equal weekly amounts throughout the quarter for deposit on the median day

of each week. Estimates will be reconciled to actual costs approximately 45 days after the end of the quarter. This

funding technique is interest neutral.

Payment Schedule-Quarterly Estimates-Payroll Cycle

Funds will be requested bi-weekly to coincide with the States payroll cycle. The request shall be made in accordance with

the appropriate Federal agency cut-off time specified in Exhibit I. The amount of the drawdown shall be based on

quarterly estimates and shall be requested in equal amounts each pay period during the quarter to coincide with the

State's bi-weekly payroll cycle. Estimates will be reconciled to actual costs approximately 45 days after the end of the

quarter. This funding technique is interest neutral.

Prior Month's Actual

Funds will be requested monthly for expenditures incurred in the prior month. Expenditures will be determined as soon as

possible subsequent to the close of each month and a request for funds will occur as soon as possible thereafter. The

request shall be made in accordance with the appropriate Federal agency cut-off time specified in Exhibit I. The amount of

the request shall be for the actual expenditures incurred in the prior month. This funding technique is not interest neutral.

Weekly Billing Cycle

Funds will be requested weekly for expenditures incurred during the States seven-day billing cycle. The request shall be

made in accordance with the appropriate Federal agency cut-off specified in Exhibit I. The amount of the request shall be

the actual sum of expenditures that have been posted during the States billing cycle. This funding technique is not

interest neutral.

7.0 CLEARANCE PATTERNS

7.1 The State shall develop separate clearance patterns for each of the following:

Page 13 of 26
Vendor Account

Payroll Account

AHS-PATH Account

Unemployment Insurance Benefits Account

Federal Highway Planning & Construction Program (Vendor Account)

7.2 The following shall develop the State's clearance patterns:

The State of Vermont-Department of Finance and Management

7.3 The sources of data the State shall use when developing its clearance patterns are as follows:

Vendor account-State's central accounting system

Unemployment Insurance Benefits Account-Department of Labor bank records

All other accounts-Bank files from the State Treasurer's Office

7.4 The State shall use the following methodology when developing its clearance patterns:

When developing each clearance pattern, the State shall track at least 99% of the funds disbursed, from issuance to

clearance, for a period of at least three months.

7.5 The State shall identify for each check or warrant (hereafter, check) in the population: (1) the date the check was

released for payment; (2) the date the check was debited from the State's account, and, (3) the amount of the check.

7.6 The State shall use the following method to calculate the dollar-weighted average day of clearance:

To determine the number of days each check was outstanding (clearance time), the issue date shall be subtracted from

the date the check cleared the State's account.

To determine the percentage of the disbursement paid out each day following issuance, the amount of the checks that

clear the State's account each day shall be summed and then divided by the amount of the total disbursement.

For each day following issuance, the clearance time of the checks paid out that day shall be multiplied by the percentage

of the total disbursement those checks represent. This product is the clearance factor.

The dollar-weighted average day of clearance for the disbursement shall be determined by summing the clearance factor

of each day following the disbursement.

7.7 The State shall adjust each clearance pattern to reflect the dollar-weighted proportion of funds paid out by EFT/Direct

payroll, with the following exceptions:

All Accounts - An adjustment is not necessary since the State includes all payments in its clearance pattern calculations,

including those paid electronically.

The State shall also adjust each clearance pattern to reflect:

n/a

7.8 Each of the State's clearance patterns is calculated in calendar days.

Page 14 of 26

the clearance activity of the programs to which it is applied. This certification shall be provided to the Fiscal Service prior

to the effective date of the Agreement. The State shall recertify its clearance patterns at least every five years.

7.10 The State shall follow the procedures of 31 CFR 205 if it has actual or constructive knowledge, at any time, that a

clearance pattern does not correspond to a program's clearance activity.

8.2.1 A Federal interest liability shall accrue from the day the State pays out its own funds for program purposes to the

day Federal funds are credited to a State account. With regard to funds transferred out of the Federal Highway Trust

Fund, if a State does not bill at least weekly for current project costs, the Federal interest liability shall not accrue prior to

the day the State submits a request for funds.

8.2.2 The State shall use the following method to calculate Federal interest liabilities:

Actual Activity:

For all transactions where the State pays out its own funds for program purposes prior to receiving Federal funds, the

State shall track each payment from the date it is paid out of a State account to the date Federal funds are subsequently

credited to a State account to cover that outlay. The Federal interest liability on each payment shall be based on the

difference in whole days between the two events. With Federal-State matching programs, interest shall be calculated on

the Federal percentage of the disbursement.

Page 15 of 26
8.3 The Unemployment Trust Fund

8.3.1 The State shall use the following method to calculate State interest liabilities on funds withdrawn from the several

accounts in the Unemployment Trust Fund:

The State shall use the following methodology to calculate State interest liabilities on funds withdrawn from the several

accounts in the UTF under the Unemployment Insurance program.

Based on statements provided by its financial institution, or other appropriate source, the State shall determine the actual

interest earnings and the related banking costs attributable to funds withdrawn from its account in the UTF.

At the end of the State's fiscal year, the State shall calculate the percentage of its total unemployment compensation

expenditures for (1) funds withdrawn from the State account in the UTF, or the State %, and (2) funds withdrawn from the

Federal Employees Compensation Account (FECA) and the Extended Unemployment Compensation Account (EUCA)

and any other accounts of Federal funds in the UTF, or the Federal %.

The State shall calculate the actual interest earnings and the related banking costs attributable to funds withdrawn from

the State account in the UTF by multiplying the State % by the amount of the actual interest earnings and the related

banking costs of the account as a whole. The State's liability for interest on funds withdrawn from its account in the UTF

shall consist of the actual interest earnings attributable to such funds less the related banking costs attributed to such

funds.

The State shall determine the average daily cash balance of its unemployment compensation benefit payment account for

its fiscal year. The State shall calculate the average daily cash balance of Federal funds by multiplying the Federal % by

the average daily cash balance of the benefit payment account on the whole. The State's liability for interest on funds

withdrawn from the FECA and EUCA (and any other benefit accounts of Federal funds in the UTF from which the State

draws funds) shall be the average daily cash balance of Federal funds multiplied by the annualized rate equal to the

average equivalent yields of 13-week Treasury bills auctioned during the State's fiscal year.

8.4 Refund Liabilities

8.4.1 The State shall be liable for interest on refunds from the date the refund is credited to a State account until the date

the refund is debited from the State account for program purposes. The State shall apply a $50,000 refund transaction

threshold below which the State shall not incur or calculate interest liabilities on refunds. A transaction is defined as a

single deposit.

8.4.2 For each refund, the State shall maintain information identifying:

(1) date a refund is credited to a State account

(2) date of the subsequent deposit of Federal funds against which the refund is offset

(3) amount of the refund

8.4.3 The State shall use the following methodology to calculate interest liabilities on refunds:

The State shall apply refunds of Federal program funds to the next program disbursement and thus reduce the next

Federal program drawdown by the amount of refunds received pertaining to that program. Refunds over $50,000.00 shall

be tracked in the following manner:

Average Clearance Pattern - Refunds shall be tracked from the date they are deposited to the State's account to the date

they are paid out for program purposes for potential State interest liabilities.

Page 16 of 26
8.5 Exemptions

8.5.1 Where more than one State agency is a recipient of Federal funds under a program, a particular State agency's

funding may be excluded from interest calculation procedures if the State agency receives an amount of funds less than 5

% of the State's threshold for major Federal assistance programs. Notwithstanding this potential exemption, however, in

no case shall less than 90% of a program's total funding be subject to interest calculation procedures.

Proration of calculations: If less than total program funding is subject to interest calculation procedures, the resulting

interest liability calculations shall be prorated to 100% of program funding.

8.6 State Interest Liabilities

8.6.1 The State shall be liable for interest on Federal funds from the date Federal funds are credited to a State account

until the date those funds are paid out for program purposes.

8.6.2 The State shall use the following method to calculate State interest liabilities on Federal funds:

8.6.2.1 Measuring Time Funds Are Held

Deposit to Clearance:

To determine the total time Federal funds are held, the State shall measure the time between the date Federal funds are

received and credit to a State's account and the date those funds are debited from the State's account.

8.6.2.2 Source of Data

Clearance Patterns:

The time period from issuance of funds to the date funds are debited from the State's account shall be determined by the

appropriate clearance pattern specified in Exhibit II.

8.6.2.3 Standards Applied

The State does not utilize statistical sampling. 100% of all disbursement type transactions and related Federal

drawdowns are used to compute the State and Federal interest liabilities.

8.6.2.4 Calculation Procedure

Average Daily Balance:

I = ADB x R, where

I = State's total interest liability

ADB = Average Daily Balance of cash in a program's account, measured from deposit to clearance

R = Annualized rate equal to the average equivalent yields of 13-week Treasury bills auctioned during a State's fiscal year

9.0 REVERSE FLOW PROGRAMS

9.1 The Federal government makes payments on behalf of the State for the Supplemental Security Income (SSI)

program.

Page 17 of 26
9.2 Definitions

State Supplementary Payment (SSP): Monthly payment made by the State to the Social Security Administration (SSA), as

a voluntary supplement to monthly SSI payments made by the SSA to the State's SSI beneficiaries.

SSI/SSP: The monthly SSI payment made by the SSA to beneficiaries, which combines both Federal SSI program funds

and SSP funds.

SSI/SSP Transfer Date: The dollar-weighted average day of clearance of the regularly issued monthly SSI/SSP checks

issued by the SSA, adjusted to reflect three payment variations.

Due Date: The day on which States are required to deposit funds to the SSA.

Deposit Date: The day on which State funds are deposited to the SSA.

9.3 Funding Technique

The State and the Federal government will apply the following funding technique to the SSI program:

Component: State Supplementary Payment

Technique: SSI Funding Technique

Description: In accordance with Public Law 106-170, the State shall deposit funds to the SSA no later than the business

day preceding the date on which the SSA Commissioner pays monthly benefits, or with respect to monthly benefits paid

for the month that is the last month of the State's fiscal year, the fifth business day following such date.

9.4 Clearance Pattern

The SSI/SSP Transfer Date is determined by adjusting the dollar weighted average day of clearance for regularly issued

monthly SSI/SSP checks, as determined by the Federal Reserve Bank's Survey of Float on US Government Checks, with

the three payment variations below, to reflect the proportion of SSI/SSP payments made to beneficiaries as follows:

By check on days later in a month: To calculate this adjustment, SSA will determine the nationwide percentage of total

SSI/SSP payments made to beneficiaries by check on days later in a month, using full data from the most recent Federal

fiscal year. The average day of clearance for regularly issued monthly SSI/SSP checks shall be dollar-weighted for

SSI/SSP payments made to beneficiaries by check on days later in the month, which are assumed to be issued on the

11th business day of the month.

By direct deposit on the regularly designated day of the month for delivery of SSI/SSP payments: To calculate this

adjustment, SSA will determine the nationwide percentage of total SSI/SSP payments made to beneficiaries by direct

deposit on the regularly designated day of the month for delivery of SSI/SSP payments, using full data from the most

recent Federal fiscal year. The average day of clearance for regularly issued monthly SSI/SSP checks shall be dollarweighted with the average day of clearance for SSI/SSP payments made to beneficiaries by direct deposit on the regularly

designated day of the month for delivery of SSI/SSP payments to beneficiaries.

By direct deposit on days later in a month: To calculate this adjustment, SSA will determine the nationwide percentage of

Page 18 of 26
total SSI/SSP payments made to beneficiaries by direct deposit on days later in a month, using full data from the most

recent Federal fiscal year. The average day of clearance for regularly issued monthly SSI/SSP checks shall be dollarweighted with the average day of clearance for SSI/SSP payments made to beneficiaries by direct deposit on days later in

a month, which are assumed to be issued on the 11th business day of the month.

9.5 Interest Calculations

The Federal Government shall use the following methods to calculate and document Federal and State interest liabilities

for SSI.

To calculate the interest liability, SSA shall record the Deposit Date of each monthly SSP payment and compare it to the

SSI/SSP Transfer Date for each month. The liability for interest will be based on the following:

Payments received before the Due Date: The interest liability provisions of the CMIA do not apply to payments paid by a

State before the Due Date, pursuant to Public Law 106-170. All payments received prior to the Due Date will be deemed

as received on the Due Date, for the purposes of calculating interest.

Payments received on the Due Date: A Federal interest liability should be computed from (1) the Due Date to (2) the day

SSA pays out the State funds for program purposes (SSI/SSP Transfer Date).

Payments received after the Due Date but on or before the SSI/SSP Transfer Date: Interest liability provisions of the

CMIA do not apply.

Payments received after the SSI/SSP Transfer Date: A State interest liability will accrue from (1) the SSI/SSP Transfer

Date until (2) the day State funds are credited to the SSA.

SSA shall calculate Federal and State interest liabilities on the variance between (1) the amount of the monthly State

payment, which is an estimate, and (2) the actual monthly outlays for program purposes made by the SSA on behalf of

the State. The monthly State payment includes the cumulative balance brought forward from the previous month. For

each month of the State's fiscal year, SSA will compare the amount of the State payment to the amount of the actual

outlays made on behalf of the State. To the extent the State payment (including the estimated cumulative balance) is

greater than actual outlays, a Federal interest liability will accrue. To the extent the State payment (including estimated

cumulative balance) is less than actual outlays, a State interest liability will be calculated. In either case, the interest

liability will be calculated based on the difference in whole days from (1) the day the monthly State payment was

deposited to a Federal account to (2) the day a subsequent monthly State payment is deposited to a Federal account.

Any overpayment that results in a cumulative balance does not constitute an early deposit as defined in Public Law 106-

170, Section 410, Schedule for SSI Supplementation Agreements.

9.6 Refunds

Pursuant to 31 CFR 205.25 (c)(3), the State or the Federal government will not incur interest liabilities on refunds under

the Supplemental Security Income Program as States are credited with the refunds in advance, before SSA collects the

funds.

10.0 INTEREST CALCULATION COSTS

Page 19 of 26
10.1 As set forth in 31 CFR 205.27, interest calculation costs are defined as those costs necessary for the actual

calculation of interest, including the cost of developing and maintaining clearance patterns in support of the interest

calculations. Interest calculation costs do not include expenses for normal disbursing services, such as processing of

checks or maintaining records for accounting and reconciliation of cash balances, or expenses for upgrading or

modernizing accounting systems. Interest calculation costs in excess of $50,000 in any year are not eligible for

reimbursement, unless the State provides justification with the annual report.

10.2 The State expects to incur the following types of interest calculation costs:

Actual staff costs associated with the maintenance of clearance patterns and calculations of Federal/State interest

liabilities.

10.3 The State shall submit all claims for reimbursement of interest calculation costs with its Annual Report in accordance

with 31 CFR 205.

11.0 NON-COMPLIANCE

11.1 The provisions of 31 CFR Part 205.29 and 31 CFR Part 205.30 shall apply in cases of non-compliance with the

terms of this Agreement.
