Summary

The Oregon Department of Emergency Management proposed an Emergency Management Performance Grant of $85,587.50 to Douglas County for July 1, 2025–June 30, 2026 to support core emergency-management capabilities; the agreement sets reimbursement rules, reporting deadlines and federal compliance under 2 CFR Part 200.

Douglas County is listed on the agenda as the subrecipient for an Emergency Management Performance Grant (EMPG) from the Oregon Department of Emergency Management (OEM) totaling $85,587.50 for the period July 1, 2025–June 30, 2026. The grant agreement (Grant #25-509) in the meeting packet describes the award as reimbursement-based and requires quarterly programmatic and fiscal reports, a final close-out report, and adherence to federal requirements under 2 CFR Part 200.

The agreement limits eligible uses to reasonable and necessary costs documented in Exhibit A of the award and conditions disbursement on submission of signed Requests for Reimbursement and supporting documentation. The exhibit in the packet shows the full $85,587.50 allocated to personnel costs in the county's FY2025 EMPG work plan.

The OEM contract text details procurement and property-management requirements (including Build America, Buy America Act references where applicable), auditing responsibilities, and required compliance with National Incident Management System (NIMS) activities. It also warns that reimbursements will be withheld if performance reports are incomplete and that final reimbursement requests are due within 30 days after the end of the period of performance.

The agenda materials do not record a motion or vote on the grant; the item appears on the consent/presentations list and staff documents indicate the county must enter into the formal agreement and submit required reports and reimbursement requests as specified by OEM.
