accordance with the scope of work and 

any necessary modifications thereof 

prepared by the grantee and approved 

by the Agency. A final project 

performance report will be required 

with the final financial status report. 

The final report may serve as the last 

quarterly report. The final report must 

provide complete information regarding 

the jobs created and supported as a 

result of the grant if applicable. Grantees 

must continuously monitor performance 

to ensure that time schedules are being 

met, projected work by time periods is 

being accomplished, and other 

performance objectives are being 

achieved. Grantees must submit an 

original of each report to the Agency no

or will affect attainment of overall 

project objectives, prevent meeting time 

schedules or objectives, or preclude the 

attainment of particular project work 

elements during established time 

periods. This disclosure shall be 

accompanied by a statement of the 

action taken or planned to resolve the 

situation; and 

(3) Objectives and timetable 

established for the next reporting 

period. 

(4) Any special reporting 

requirements, such as jobs supported 

and created, businesses assisted, or 

economic development which results in 

improvements in median household 

incomes, and any other specific 

requirements, should be placed in the 

reporting section of the Letter of 

Conditions. 

(5) Within 90 days after the 

conclusion of the project, the 

intermediary will provide a final project 

evaluation report. The last quarterly 

payment will be withheld until the final 

report is received and approved by the 

Agency. Even though the intermediary 

may request reimbursement on a 

monthly basis, the last 3 months of 

reimbursements will be withheld until a 

final report, project performance, and 

financial status report are received and 

approved by the Agency. 

(b) In addition to any reports required 

by 2 CFR part 200 and 2 CFR 400.1 to
