NACo has developed resources with the US Department of the Treasury, to help guide counties in their upcoming April 30 reporting due on federal funds provided through congressional enactments during the coronavirus emergency.

On April 30, 2024, annual Project and Expenditure (P&E) Reports are due to the U.S. Department of Treasury (Treasury) for all counties, parishes and boroughs that received American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF). These required, periodic reports provide Treasury with financial and current performance information on projects using Recovery Funds.

To help counties, parishes and boroughs, NACo put together a list of FAQs, videos and resources that thoroughly explain the Treasury reporting portal and process for reporting obligations, expenditures and projects.

County officials with questions may direct them to ehurley@naco.org.

From the NACo FAQs:

• Where can I find the SLFRF award reporting requirements?
  The best resource for any reporting questions is the SLFRF Compliance and Reporting Guide.
• Do I have to submit a report if I haven’t spent any of my SLFRF award funds? 
  Yes. Recipients must continue to submit the required reports via Treasury’s Portal regardless of whether SLFRF award funds have been obligated or expended. Until closeout procedures for the SLFRF program are finalized and published, recipients must also continue to submit the required reports even if SLFRF funds have been fully spent and reported.
• What do I do if I’m having issues submitting the required reports?
  If you are experiencing any exceptional circumstances preventing you from submitting the required reports, please email a detailed explanation of the situation with any supporting screenshots or relevant documentation, as appropriate, to SLFRF@Treasury.gov.
• Where can I find more information about the program, including eligible uses of SLFRF funds?
  Treasury’s website provides information about the SLFRF program, including the eligible use categories for use of SLFRF funds as summarized in the Overview of the 2022 Final Rule, Overview of the 2023 Interim Final Rule, and Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs), as well as information about reporting requirements.
