PROJECT DESCRIPTION
CSFA Number: 494-10-0343 NOSA/SAIN Number: 343-9927
GATA Registration Number: 674095
The Sustained Traffic Enforcement Program (STEP)and Enforcement Local Alcohol Project(eLAP)
grants help Illinois maximize the effect of sustained, stepped-up, year-long traffic enforcement. STEP and
eLAP programs focus on specific times of the year and day when data shows alcohol-involved and
unbuckled fatalities are highest. The increased enforcement details conducted during these times raises the
perception of offenders getting caught and deters potential impaired drivers and potential unbuckled drivers
and passengers. The STEP and eLAP grants also use strong media efforts in conjunction with increased
enforcement to make a positive impact on reducing serious injuries and fatalities on Illinois roadways. The
goals of these enforcement grants are to save lives and reduce injuries resulting from motor vehicle crashes
caused by impaired driving, improper seat belt usage, distracted driving, and speeding.
The Grantee shall utilize grant funds to meet desired STEP and eLAP grant goals by maintaining
continual patrols per enforcement detail to meet safety project goals, milestones, deliverables, performance
standards, and performance measures as specified in the Attachment(BSPE 411)of the FFY19 application
packet for NOFO 19-0343-02. Such will be documented when submitting the BSPE 205 Local/State
Mobilizations Data Collection form per directions in Exhibit B.The funding shall be used as per the agreed
upon budget pending the FFY19 federal budget, dollar amounts, and dates. In addition, the National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)grant funding policy determines allowable costs under
specific conditions.
The Grantee is eligible to receive allowable costs as they appear in the approved finalized budget.
However,the Grantee may request to reallocate enforcement periods in addition to the required
enforcement campaigns but must be approved by the Grant Administrator. The Grantee may also request
funding changes to the approved finalized budget should allocated costs need to be redistributed after the
commencement of the grant agreement.
STEP and eLAP grants operate during a federal fiscal year and are funded on a reimbursement basis
per the requirements set forth in Exhibit C of this Agreement. STEP and eLAP grant funding line items
eligible for reimbursement are personnel, equipment, and indirect costs(where approved rate has been
established prior to the execution of this Agreement).

for its Grantee:
Renewal This Agreement may not be renewed.

GRANTOR'S authorized inspection or review,final audit,the GRANTEE'S independent audit, or as a result
of any duly authorized inspection or review.
ETHICS

requirements apply.
A. Code of Conduct
1. Personal Conflict of Interest—The GRANTEE shall maintain a written code or standard of
conduct which shall govern the performance of its employees, officers, board members, or agent engaged in
the award and administration of contracts supported by state or federal funds. Such code shall provide that
no employee, officer, board member or agent of the GRANTEE may participate in the selection, award, or
administration of a contract supported by state or federal funds if a conflict of interest,real or apparent
would be involved. Such a conflict would arise when any of the parties set forth below has a financial or
other interest in the firm selected for award:
a. the employee, officer, board member, or agent;
b. any member of his or her immediate family;
C. his or her partner; or
d. an organization which employs,or is about to employ, any of the above.

activities, result in an unfair competitive advantage to the third party contractor or GRANTEE or impair the
objectivity in performing the contract work.

The inability of the GRANTEE to certify to the certification in this section will not necessarily result in
denial of participation in this Agreement. The GRANTEE shall submit an explanation of why it cannot
provide the certification in this section. This certification is a material representation of fact upon which
reliance was placed when the Grantor determined whether to enter into this transaction. If it is later
determined that the GRANTEE knowingly rendered an erroneous certification, in addition to other remedies
available to the federal government, the Grantor may terminate this Agreement for cause. The GRANTEE
shall provide immediate written notice to the Grantor if at any time the GRANTEE learns that its certification
was erroneous when submitted or has become erroneous by reason of changed circumstances. The terms

certification of a prospective participant in a lower tier covered transaction that it is not debarred,

certification is erroneous. The GRANTEE may decide the method and frequency by which it determines the
eligibility of its principals. The GRANTEE may, but is not required to, check the Non-Procurement List. If

debarred, ineligible or voluntarily excluded from participation, in addition to other remedies available to the

Nothing contained in this section shall be construed to require establishment of a system of records
