The recipient agrees to comply with any additional requirements that may be imposed by the DOJ awarding agency (OJP or OVW, as appropriate) during the period of performance for this award, if the recipient is designated as "high- risk"for purposes of the DOJ high-risk grantee list. Condition 27 Requirement to report actual or imminent breach of personally identifiable information (PII) The recipient(and any"subrecipient" at any tier) must have written procedures in place to respond in the event of an actual or imminent"breach" (OMB M-17-12) if it(or a subrecipient)-- (1)creates, collects, uses, processes, stores, maintains, disseminates, discloses, or disposes of"Personally Identifiable Information (PII)" (2 CFR 200.1)within the scope of an OJP grant-funded program or activity, or(2) uses or operates a "Federal information system" (OMB Circular A-130). The recipient's breach procedures must include a requirement to report actual or imminent breach of PII to an OJP Program Manager no later than 24 hours after an occurrence of an actual breach, or the detection of an imminent breach. Condition 28 Requirements related to System for Award Management and Universal Identifier Requirements The recipient must comply with applicable requirements regarding the System for Award Management(SAM), currently accessible at https://www.sam.gov/. This includes applicable requirements regarding registration with SAM, as well as maintaining the currency of information in SAM. The recipient also must comply with applicable restrictions on subawards ("subgrants")to first-tier subrecipients (first- tier"subgrantees"), including restrictions on subawards to entities that do not acquire and provide (to the recipient)the unique entity identifier required for SAM registration. The details of the recipient's obligations related to SAM and to unique entity identifiers are posted on the OJP web site at https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/SAM.htm (Award condition: System for Award Management (SAM) and Universal Identifier Requirements), and are incorporated by reference here. This condition does not apply to an award to an individual who received the award as a natural person (i.e., unrelated to any business or non-profit organization that he or she may own or operate in his or her name). Condition 29 Restrictions on "lobbying" In general, as a matter of federal law, federal funds awarded by OJP may not be used by the recipient, or any subrecipient("subgrantee")at any tier, either directly or indirectly, to support or oppose the enactment, repeal, modification, or adoption of any law, regulation, or policy, at any level of government. See 18 U.S.C. 1913. (There may be exceptions if an applicable federal statute specifically authorizes certain activities that otherwise would be barred by law.) Another federal law generally prohibits federal funds awarded by OJP from being used by the recipient, or any subrecipient at any tier, to pay any person to influence (or attempt to influence)a federal agency, a Member of Congress, or Congress (or an official or employee of any of them)with respect to the awarding of a federal grant or cooperative agreement, subgrant, contract, subcontract, or loan, or with respect to actions such as renewing, extending, or modifying any such award. See 31 U.S.C. 1352. Certain exceptions to this law apply, including an exception that applies to Indian tribes and tribal organizations. Should any question arise as to whether a particular use of federal funds by a recipient(or subrecipient)would or might fall within the scope of these prohibitions, the recipient is to contact OJP for guidance, and may not proceed without the express prior written approval of OJP.
