Changes for 08-09 EETT Formula Grant Awards

The new RFA for EETT Formula grants included changes in the ways funds are distributed. For 2008-09 and beyond, the EETT Formula Grant Award will be funded on a reimbursement basis. Once funds have been fully expended and an EOP is received and approved by the CDE, full funds will be disbursed.

The following is from page 6 of the 08-09 EETT Formula RFA:

Effective for this grant award, CDE will no longer advance 85 percent of the award. EETT Formula Grant awards will be fully paid on a reimbursement basis upon the receipt and approval of an EOP Report, certifying that 100 percent of the funds were expended in accordance with the grant requirements.

To minimize the impact of this change, the EOP Reports will be accepted at any time after the grant awards have been fully expended, but no later than September 3, 2010. Upon CDE approval of your EOP Report, reimbursements will be accumulated and processed on a monthly basis. To obtain the EOP report, the LEA must join our listserv. Simply send a "blank" message to join-eett-formula@mlist.cde.ca.gov

The CDE has notified districts of this change. A copy of the letter may be found at: http://www.cde.ca.gov/ls/et/ft/eettfcltr.asp
