SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Purpose of Program: Title III of Division H of the Consolidated
Appropriations Act, 2023 (the Act) authorizes funding for
Congressionally Funded Community Projects (CFCP). The funds will
support identified organizations throughout the country to conduct
community project activities. The list of identified organizations may
be found in Book II of the December 20, 2022, issue of the
Congressional Record of the Senate.
Subgrant Authorization: The Department's regulations in 34 CFR
75.708(a) prohibit subgranting, in the absence of statutory authority,
unless authorized by a notice in the Federal Register. The Department
has determined that to effectively conduct some of the Congressionally
Funded Community Projects and meet the purposes of the program,
subgrants may be appropriate and necessary. Accordingly, through this
notice, we authorize the fiscal year 2023 CFCP grantees to make CFCP
subgrants on the terms outlined in this notice.
Under 34 CFR 75.708(b), if the grantee uses this subgranting
authority, the grantee has the authority to award subgrants only to
eligible entities, and the subgrants must be used only to directly
carry out project activities described in the grantee's approved
application and consistent with the purpose described in the
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023. CFCP grantees may make subgrants
to the following eligible entities: a local educational agency, an
educational service agency, an institution of higher education, or a
nonprofit organization, as defined in 34 CFR 77.1.
Further, under 34 CFR 75.708(d), grantees must ensure that (1)
subgrants are awarded on the basis of the approved budget that is
consistent with the grantee's approved application and all applicable
Federal statutory, regulatory, and other requirements; (2) every
subgrant includes all conditions required by Federal statutes and
Executive orders and their implementing regulations; and (3)
subgrantees are aware of the requirements imposed upon them by Federal
statutes and regulations, including the Federal anti-discrimination
laws listed in 34 CFR 75.500, and enforced by the Department.
Additionally, as is true with any expenditures incurred under the
Department's grant programs, CFCP expenditures must satisfy the Federal
cost principles in 2 CFR part 200, subpart E. Therefore, any subgrant
and subgrantee expenditures must comply with the Federal cost
principles, and grantees, as pass-through entities, must comply with
the procedures for making subawards described in 2 CFR 200.332.
Note: This notice does not solicit applications.
Program Authority: Title III of Division H of the Consolidated
Appropriations Act, 2023 (Pub. L. 117-328).
