Abstract: Pre-award information is used by FAS personnel to qualify and select assistance agreement applicants for funding. Post-award reporting is used by FAS personnel to conduct standard monitoring, to make amendments to established assistance agreement awards, to make payments pursuant to such awards, and to verify that the recipient is using Federal funds appropriately to comply with applicable Federal and agency requirements. The information is necessary to ensure minimum fiscal control and accountability for award funds and to deter waste, fraud, and abuse.
