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

Page 3 of 18
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

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

and components of programs based on the list outlined in Section 4.1 of this agreement.

The State will utilize the following funding techniques when requesting Federal funds Zero Balance Accounting, Estimated

Allocation, Actual Allocation, and Weekly Drawdown. The State will not use pre-issuance funding technique for any of its

programs. Where applicable, Electronic Fund transfer, payroll, and non-payroll amounts will be segregated for each

disbursement.

7.0 CLEARANCE PATTERNS

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

The State does not use funding techniques which require clearance patterns.

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

The State does not use funding techniques which require clearance patterns.

Page 9 of 18
7.3 The sources of data the State shall use when developing its clearance patterns are as follows:

The State does not use funding techniques which require clearance patterns.

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.

For all clearance patterns developed by statistical sampling, the State shall randomly sample checks to ensure, at a

minimum, a 95% confidence interval for a .25 weighted-day level of precision for the checks in the sample. The State

shall track at least 99% of the funds disbursed, from issuance to clearance, in the sample period.

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:

The State does not use funding techniques which require clearance patterns.

The State shall also adjust each clearance pattern to reflect:

The State does not use funding techniques which require clearance patterns.

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

7.9 An authorized State official shall certify that each clearance pattern developed by the State accurately corresponds to

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.

8.0 INTEREST CALCULATION METHODOLOGY

Page 10 of 18
8.1 General Terms

8.1.1 The State and the Secretary agree that no interest liabilities will be incurred for transfers of funds made in

accordance with the procedures specified in section 6 of this Agreement where the following funding techniques are

applied:

Actual Allocation - Administrative & Payroll Costs - Monthly Drawdown

Actual Allocation-Administration & Payroll Cost Bi-Weekly Drawdown

Actual Clearance-Next Day Drawdown

Actual Clearance, ZBA - ACH

Estimated Allocation for Administrative and Payroll Costs - Monthly Draw

Weekly Drawdown

Weekly Drawdown- NMDOT

8.1.2 The State shall maintain information on disbursements and receipts of funds to verify the implementation of any

funding technique and document interest liabilities.

For each disbursement, the State shall be able to identify:

(1) amount of the issuance

(2) date of issuance

(3) date Federal funds are received and credited to a State account

(4) amount of Federal funds received

(5) date funds were requested

8.2 Federal Interest Liabilities

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:

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.

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

Page 11 of 18
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 States 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:

With programs to which applicable interest neutral funding techniques are applied, the State interest liability shall be

based on the difference in whole days between the date the refund is deposited in a State account and the date the

refund is offset against a subsequent deposit of Federal funds.

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

Page 12 of 18
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

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

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

8.6.2.2 Source of Data

The state shall utilize data from the individual agency records, our audit records and working papers, as well as the

State's fiscal agent bank records and reports.

8.6.2.3 Standards Applied

Census (Average Daily Balance):

The average daily cash balance of Federal Funds in the program's account reflects the actual activity of each draw from

the date of deposit to the date of issuance or clearance, whichever is pertinent.

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

The State is not required to cover any reverse flow programs under the terms of this Agreement because the State does

not participate in the program.

10.0 INTEREST CALCULATION COSTS

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:

Personnel costs for compiling and analyzing data related to interest calculations; Personnel costs for preparing and

transmitting the Annual Report to the Fiscal Service.
