SUBJECT:
Prior Approval Requirement for Equipment Purchase
INSTRUCTION:
The Department of Health and Human Services
has revised its policy regarding the level at which grantees need
prior approval to use grant funds to purchase equipment.
Previously, grantees needed prior approval from their funding office
to purchase any equipment whose value exceeded $5,000. Prior
approval is now required only when the value of the equipment to be
purchased exceeds $25,000.
Please direct any questions on this to your
ACF Regional Office.
