				be issued if the grantee fails to accept the conditions of the grant or fails
				to sign a contract stipulating the conditions of the grant.
(2) The grantee must agree that the funds
				granted shall be expended solely for the activities described in the approved
				proposal. Should the grant award not prove adequate for the administration of
				the project as originally submitted the grantee shall submit prior to the grant
				period modifications to the proposal and an operational budget supporting these
				modifications. Any funds granted must be committed within the grant
				period.
(3) The grantee shall
				maintain accounts, records, and other evidence pertaining to the costs incurred
				under this grant. The system of accounting employed by the grantee shall be in
				accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and will be applied in
				a consistent matter so that the project expenditures can be clearly identified.
				Records must be maintained for three years from the official termination date
				of the grant period or until an approved audit has been completed and any
				questions arising from it have been resolved, whichever is the less
				period.

				semi-annual reports of expenditures during the course of the project, and such
				other financial reports and descriptive reports as the society may require. In
				all cases the grantee is required to submit, within 30 days after completion of
				the project a final financial report and a narrative report stating what was
				accomplished with the grant. Five percent of the total grant award will be held
				pending receipt of final reports by the society.

				discrimination under any program or activity which results from the expenditure
				of grant funds.

Current through Register Vol. 13, July 5, 2024

				available for expenditure on cultural and aesthetic projects are variable in

				funds shall be discretionary with the society based upon availability of funds
				and the following criteria:

				projects of an on-going nature during the course of the full grant period shall
				receive the first priority for allocation of funds. No project will receive

				project is defined as a project designed to operate throughout the grant period
				with full-time staff and other obligations to be met on a monthly
				basis.

				be allocated the remaining monies on a percentage basis. That percentage will
				be determined for each project by dividing the amount awarded each project by
				the total appropriation for cultural and aesthetic projects.
(c) If actual revenues fall short of the
				amount appropriated for cultural and aesthetic project grants the shortfall
				shall be shared equally among all projects on the same percentage
				basis.
