GULF COAST ECOSYSTEM RESTORATION COUNCIL

2 CFR Part 5900

[Docket Number: 109092024-1111-04]


Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit 
Requirements for Federal Awards

AGENCY: Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council (Council) 
publishes this rule to supersede the Council's regulation for Uniform 
Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements 
for Federal Awards, in connection with the Office of Management and 
Budget's (OMB) recent revisions to its guidance on Grants and 
Agreements.

DATES: This rule is effective October 1, 2024.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Joshua Easton at 504-252-7717 or 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 22, 2024, OMB issued a final rule 
revising its Guidance for Grants and Agreements, henceforth to be known 
as the OMB Guidance for Federal Financial Assistance, effective October 
1, 2024 (89 FR 30046, April 22, 2024). The Council publishes this final 
rule to adopt OMB's revisions to 2 CFR part 200, except for 2 CFR 
200.322(c).

Classification

Paperwork Reduction Act

    This rule contains no collections of information subject to the 
requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3506). 
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is required to 
respond to, nor shall any person be subject to a penalty for failure to 
comply with, a collection of information subject to the Paperwork 
Reduction Act unless that collection displays a currently valid OMB 
Control Number.

Regulatory Flexibility Act

    Because notice and opportunity for comment are not required 
pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553 or any other law, the analytical requirements 
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) are 
inapplicable. Therefore, a regulatory flexibility analysis is not 
required and has not been prepared.

List of Subjects in 2 CFR Part 5900

programs, Grants administration.
