The budget includes grant funded expenses and those necessary to meet the required match with IDL. To be reimbursed, all expenses must be allowable, allocable to specific project activities or costs, reasonable and necessary. Consult federal cost principles for additional requirements (http:/Awww.whitehouse.gov/omb and hittp:/Awww.ecfr.gov). IDL will review your budget to determine whether proposed costs are allowable and reasonable. Estimated expenditure amounts should be comparable to or reflect regional market rates. When projects are evaluated and ranked, wise use of funds and anticipated return on investment in the form of meaningful, lasting, and measurable outcomes will be considered. If the project is funded, IDL will enter into a binding Agreement (Memorandum of Understanding or Cooperative Agreement) with the funding recipient(s). This agreement will dictate grant funding parameters— including those documented below, specify the project scope, budget, reimbursement process, and reporting requirements. REFER TO THE FOLLOWING WHEN DEVELOPING BUDGET DETAIL Expenses incurred by the funding recipient(s) for work accomplished through contracts with other entities, usually specialized contractors or consultants (e.g., loggers, forester consultants, arborists, or irrigation installers). Contractor Expenses « Contracts must be awarded/solicited on a competitive basis and in accordance with associated procurement rules, procedures and internal controls. Funding recipient(s) will need to ascertain that contractors have not been debarred from receiving federal funding and have a unique ID assigned to them through SAM.gov. Flat Fee A method of establishing/negotiating a “standard rate” for service, product or project scope item on a project » The flat fee method for establishing project costs for the funding recipient(s) (e.g. for staff to administer the grant or to develop and conduct workshops) will not be accepted. The percent of the total awarded funding that is held back (retained) by IDL until the funding recipient(s) fully and satisfactorily completes the project as stipulated in the Agreement. A holdback helps assure that all grant funds are not exhausted prior to completion of the project scope/deliverables. Hold-Back » Up to 15% of grant funds may be held back by IDL. In practice, this would likely only impact the last (or last few) reimbursement requests. « ifthe project is not completed satisfactorily, the held back funds may be permanently withheld. Expenses or activities for which the funding recipient(s) cannot be reimbursed Ineligible Costs * Equipment - that costs $10,000 or more and has a life expectancy of at least one year. = Other Activities - Construction, research or activities on federal land. Grant funds cannot be used to seek and apply for additional grant funding. " Note: Activities ineligible for grant funds can be used as project leverage. Costs that benefit common activities and, therefore, cannot be readily assigned to a specific direct cost objective or project. Examples of such costs include accounting personnel services performed within the recipient organization, use allowances on buildings and equipment, and the costs of operating and maintaining facilities. Indirect Costs « Indirect rate requests must not exceed your federal cognizant agency approved indirect rate. If applicants do not have such an approved rate, and they qualify per OMB Guidance 2 CFR Part 200, they can elect to charge a de minimis rate of 15% of Modified Total Direct Costs (MTDC) for indirect. (See §§200.1, 200.414 and associated appendices for details). oe MTDC means all direct salaries and wages, applicable fringe benefits, materials and supplies, services, iravel; and subawards and subcontracts up to the first $50,000 of each subaward or subcontract (regardless ey Landscape Scale Restoration and Western Fire Managers/HFR Grant Program Guidance Page 1 of 3 21 BOARD OF BANNOCK COUNTY COMMISSIONERS' - MEETING MARCH 3, 2026 of the period of performance of the subawards and subcontracts under the award). MTDC excludes equipment, capital expenditures, charges for patient care, rental costs, tuition remission scholarships and fellowships, participant support costs; and the portion of each subaward and subcontract in excess of $50,000. Other ifems may only be excluded when necessary to avoid a serious inequity in the distribution of indirect costs, and with the approval of the cognizant agency for indirect costs. « The funding recipient(s) without a cognizant agency approved direct rate can submit a proposal and negotiate a rate with IDL strictly for this project in accordance with the OMB regulations and requirements. Note, such proposals and negotiations take time and will likely delay the granting process. = The funding recipient(s) can choose to charge no indirect or a lower rate than allowed if you want more grant funds to be applied to on-the-ground costs or to the 15% required match. » Note: recipient personnel working on specific grant tasks, like project management or oversight, cannot be paid with indirect funds. Personnel must time-record their activities and charge the grant for their time under personnel expenses and be reimbursed as direct project costs. Project costs that will be paid for or provided in-kind by the funding recipient(s) and will | not be reimbursed with grant funds. This includes in-kind or cash donations of/for services, equipment, products, etc. that assist in the completion of the funding recipient(s) funded project or directly contributes to its purpose. Match » 415% match will be required and must be documented at time of reimbursement (i.e., 45% of the total amount reimbursed for the grant). « As IDL will track match to an auditable standard, proof of any match payments or volunteer hours are required. « The funding recipient(s) match is preferred. However, if this is not possible, in-kind or cash contributions made by other entities can count toward the match but must be tracked and reported by the funding recipients). Purchases of materials, goods/products or mileage are needed to accomplish the intent and purpose of the specific project. Examples include supplies, tools, trees and related planting materials, irrigation parts, and equipment rental fees. Operating Expenses « All operating expenses should be necessary and specific to this project. » Ensure operating expenses are not already included or factored into the applicant's indirect cost rate. If certain expenses are customarily categorized as indirect expenses, they cannot be counted as operating expenses. Payment of The funding recipient(s) will need to request funds by submitting an IDL Grant Reimbursement Request Form, progress narrative/report, invoices/receipts, copies of | Expenses deliverables, and other supporting documentation as specified within the Agreement. » Ail payments are made on a reimbursement basis only. These are expenses incurred and paid for by the funding recipient(s) prior to payment by IDL. « Submission of progress/accomplishment reports will be required with reimbursement requests. Depending on the project, additional reports may be requested. Only actual costs for wages & benefits for the funding recipient(s) staff time worked on this specific grant project can be reimbursed with grant funds Personnel Expenses =» The funding recipient(s) must provide the actual hours (not estimated or a calculated percentage) for each staff person’s work on this project whose time will be reimbursed with grant dollars. (Institutions of Higher Learning must follow OMB rules specific to their type of entity for accounting of personnel time.). « Additionally, the funding recipient(s) will also need to maintain records that account for 100% of all time of staff being reimbursed, including time spent on activities not associated with this project. For example, work on other Federal grant activities, non- grant work, etc. These must be documented in personnel activity reports, or equivalent, and submitted by the individual staff person to your fiscal office at least monthly. Certification of the funding recipient(s) having such a policy will be required. " Staff time (costs), when used only as grant match, does not have to be tracked in the above way, since IDL is not using this match to meet federal match requirements.

The allocated grant amount must be matched in full by the recipient using a non-federal source. Exc eption: IE funds under the Secure Rural Schools and Community SelfDetermination Act of 2000, PL 106-393 are not considered Title federal dollars and may be used as match. The matching share can be soft match (which includes training hours valued at an accepted rate, donated labor/equipment, etc) and/or hard match (which is actual dollars spent other than federal grant funds within the specified scope of work.) If the project is part of the consolidated payment grant, matching funds can be combined or met from any one or all program areas. The Pacific Islands (excluding Hawaii) are exempt from the 1:1 match up to $500,000 by statute. Anything in excess of $500,000 requires 1:1 match for Pacific Island applications. 14|Page 1) 2) 24 BOARD OF BANNOCK COUNTY COMMISSIONERS' - MEETING MARCH 3, 2026 No state/island will receive more than 15% of the funds available in the West. Not less than 70% of the funding available will be allocated to hazardous fuel reduction projects. The application must be submitted by the state/island forestry organization. The state/island organization will be listed in Box 1 (Applicant Information) on the online application. The grant request must be submitted using the WUI Competitive Grant Online Submission System. Funds cannot be used on federal lands. Funds must be spent during the 5-year grant period and cannot be held for future maintenance outside of that grant period. v¥ VF ¥Yv¥Y¥ nS Grant Criteria: Qualifying Project Types Reduce Hazardous Fuels / Restore Fire-adapted Ecosystems in the Wildland Urban Interface (WUD): Fuel reduction projects and vegetation treatments have been identified as a means of mitigating wildfire hazards. Recipients shall facilitate and implement mitigating fuel treatments in or adjacent to identified fire-prone communities to reduce the threat of wildfire to communities. These are projects that remove or modify fuels in and/or adjacent to WUI development. Effective fuels mitigation treatments can be implemented across jurisdictional boundaries, on adjoining private lands, or within the respective communities. Projects of this type include fuel breaks, thinning, pruning, landscape modifications, etc. The overall purpose is to modify or break up the fuels in such a way as to lessen catastrophic fire and its threat to public and firefighter safety and damage to property. Another way to prevent future large, catastrophic wildfires from threatening communities is by carrying out appropriate treatments (such as prescribed burning or thinning) to restore and rehabilitate forest and grassland health in and adjacent to the WUI. Such treatments have reduced the severity of wildfires and may have additional desirable outcomes, such as providing sustainable environmental, social, and economic benefits. Project proposals must consider all elements required to implement treatments on the ground, which includes acquiring the necessary permits and consultations needed to complete plans and assessments, as well as treatment prescriptions and measures of success. Examples of projects that qualify (not all-inclusive): Defensible space around homes and structures Shaded fuel breaks Fuels reduction beyond defensible space adjacent to WUI areas Removal of slash, including piling and burning, mulching, grinding, ete. Prescribed fire Thinning Maintenance of fuels projects (explain in application narrative) Monitoring components of projects for effectiveness VV VV VV VV Improve Prevention/Education in the Interface: Recipients can provide leadership to coordinate, develop, and distribute wildland urban interface education programs in association with insurance companies, communities, local government agencies, and other partners. Informational and educational projects must target the mitigation of risk and prevention of loss. Projects should lead to the use or establishment of one or more fire program elements such as fire safety codes, implementation of Firewise practices, establishing local fire-safe councils, and fuels treatments within fire-prone 15|Page 3) 25 BOARD OF BANNOCK COUNTY COMMISSIONERS' - MEETING MARCH 3, 2026 communities. Projects should be concise clearly indicate size and scope of the project, and clearly demonstrate deliverables and measures of success of prevention/education activities. Metrics should be specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, and timely. Examples of projects that qualify (not all-inclusive): > Firewise or similar programs >» Fire education components to Project Learning Tree > Pamphlets, brochures, handouts CWPP Planning: Community Wildfire Protection Plans (CWPPs) are created by local communities and may address issues such as wildfire response, hazard mitigation, community preparedness, structure protection, or a combination of the above. The process of developing these plans can help a community clarify and refine its priorities for the protection of life, property, and critical infrastructure in the wildland-urban interface. The Healthy Forest Restoration Act (HFRA) minimum requirements for a CWPP are: 1) Collaboration (must be developed with community members, local and state government representatives in collaboration with federal agencies and other interested stakeholders), 2) Prioritized Fuel Reduction (plan must identify and prioritize areas for hazardous fuel reduction treatments and recommend the types and methods of treatment), and 3) Treatment of Structural Ignitability (must recommend measures that homeowners and communities can take to reduce the ignitability of structures throughout the area addressed in the plan). A copy of the CWPP Handbook can be found at http:/Awww.communitiescommittee.org/pdfs/ewpphandbook pdf. Examples of projects that qualify (not all-inclusive): > Creation offor update to CWPP/hazard mitigation plans or equivalent document. Note: for the creation of CWPPs outline how you will meet national and state requirements in the document: some states provide checklists to assist. Be sure to address the following in your application: o Accomplishments: Explain what projects identified in the original CWPP have been completed. (Only do this if you are updating your CWPP. If you are creating a new CWPP, you will not yet have any accomplishments). o Collaboration: If you are updating your CWPP: Identify new partners and stakeholders as well as update all contact information. For CWPP creation, identify all partners and stakeholders to be involved. 0 Prioritized Fuel Reduction: Those updating a CWPP should: Identify and prioritize new hazardous fuels reduction projects, the method of treatments to be employed, and how ihese projects address any changes to the community objectives and values at risk. New CWPP plans must identify and prioritize areas for hazardous fuel reduction treatments and recommend the types and methods of treatment o Treatment of Structural Ignitability: Updated CWPPs should explain new or additional measures to be implemented to reduce homeowner and/or community ignitability of structures. Those creating CWPPs must recommend measures that homeowners and communities can take to reduce the ignitability of structures throughout the area addressed in the plan. > Priority projects listed in existing CWPPs covering the above criteria. 4) Examples of Projects that DO NOT Qualify (not all-inclusive): > Preparedness and suppression capacity building; such as the purchase of fire department equipment (try VFA, DHS, and FEMA grant programs) > Small business start-up funding -16|Page 26 BOARD OF BANNOCK COUNTY COMMISSIONERS' - MEETING MARCH 3, 2026 » Research and development projects (try Economic Action Program) > GIS and database systems that are not related to the West Wide Wildfire Risk Assessment > Construction/infrastructure (building remodel, bridges, road construction, water development, general property/ homeowner maintenance.) > Funding the creation of stewardship plans. o Note: a separately funded stewardship plan can be used to guide a WUI project if it is clearly labeled as not fimded through match or WUI grant funds. ———=———L—=_——SSS—_|__SSS ss Grant Scoring: > All grants will be scored based on the following criteria; applicants must ensure that all boxes are filled in and the application is complete (the highest possible score is 45): Does the application clearly show how the budget will be spent by line item and are expenditur es applicable and relevant to the goals and objectives of the project?

As a result, the Review Committee had to be extremely discerning on how funding was awarded. The Bannock County Sheriff’s Office’s original application submission received a score of 53%, which is below the 75% threshold necessary to receive full funding. However, the Sheriff’s Office accepted the opportunity to complete previously incomplete sections of their original application and did provide additional information, which allowed the application to be eligible for award. Ultimately — due to the low application score and the competitive demand for funding — the Review Committee chose to fund the Alcohol Misuse & Underage Drinking Prevention Staff Budget at a reduced amount of 64 hours. The hourly wage remained the same. e Mileage Budget — In the updated, resubmitted application the Bannock County Sheriff’s Office requested a total of $1,800.00 in mileage for Alcohol Misuse & Underage Drinking Prevention activities in section D.5.a. However, in that same section the Sheriff’s Office wrote that officers would complete 10 sessions at an average of 70 miles per session > 10 x 70 = 700 miles x $0.70 = $490.00. So, the Review Committee chose to award funding for mileage at the corrected amount of $490.00. **Illicit Opioid Misuse Prevention e Staff Budget — Similar to the explanation for the reduced Staff Budget for the Alcohol Misuse & Underage Drinking Prevention activities listed above — ultimately, due to the low application score and the competitive demand for funding, the Review Committee chose to fund the Illicit Opioid Misuse Prevention Staff Budget at a reduced amount of 59 hours. The hourly wage remained the same. e Mileage Budget — In the updated, resubmitted application the Bannock County Sheriff’s Office requested a total of $1,750.00 in mileage for Illicit Opioid Misuse Prevention activities in section F.5.a. However, in that same section the Sheriff’s Office wrote that officers would complete 15 sessions at an average of 75 miles per session > 15x 7=1,125 miles x $0.70 = $787.50. So, the Review Committee chose to award funding for mileage at the corrected amount of $787.50. *** Methamphetamine Use Prevention e Staff Budget — Similar to the explanations for the reduced Staff Budget for the Alcohol and Illicit Opioid Misuse Prevention activities listed above — ultimately, due to the low application score and the competitive demand for funding, the Review Committee chose to fund the Methamphetamine Use Prevention Staff Budget at a reduced amount of 49 hours. The hourly wage remained the same. e Mileage Budget — In the updated, resubmitted application the Bannock County Sheriff’s Office requested a total of $1,550.00 in mileage for Methamphetamine Use Prevention activities in section G.5.a. However, in that same section the Sheriff’s Office wrote that officers would complete 10 sessions at an average of 75 miles per session > 15x 75 = 750 miles x $0.70 = $525.00. So, the Review Committee chose to award funding for mileage at the corrected amount of $525.00. ****Youth Substance Use Prevention e Staff Budget — Similar to the explanations for the other reduced Staff Budget listed above — ultimately, due to the low application score and the competitive demand for funding, the Review Committee chose to fund the Youth Substance Use Prevention Staff Budget at a reduced amount of 35 hours.
