UASI Governance Charter

Governance. In keeping with sound project management practices, the UAWG must ensure that its approach to critical issues such as membership, governance structure, voting rights, grant management and administration responsibilities, and funding allocation methodologies are formalized in a working group charter or other form of standard operating procedure related to the UASI program governance. The charter must also outline how decisions made in UAWG meetings will be documented and shared with UAWG members. The UAWG charter must be on file with DHS/FEMA prior to drawing down UASI funding and must be available to all UAWG members to promote transparency in decision-making related to the UASI program.
