Recipient Reporting
The Recovery Act clearly states, “every taxpayer dollar spent on our economic recovery must be subject to unprecedented levels of transparency and accountability.” In accordance with this objective, Section 1512(c) of the Recovery Act established a quarterly reporting requirement that applies to recipients of the Office of Justice Programs (OJP), the Office of Community Oriented Policing (COPS Office), and the Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) Recovery Act awards. The first quarterly report under Section 1512 (c) is due on October 10, 2009. Section 1512 (c) reporting must be submitted through https://www.FederalReporting.gov. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) encourages all prime recipients and delegated subrecipients to register as soon as possible. Registration may take up to 8 business days to complete. To register, a recipient must have a DUNS number and be registered in the Central Contractor Registration.
