In accordance with section 1512 of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA), all awards funded by ARRA require quarterly reporting through www.FederalReporting.gov. This reporting system was developed to serve as a central tool that will be used by recipients to transmit information on projects and activities funded by ARRA. This tool will be used for recipient reporting only; however, reports and information submitted through FederalReporting.gov will be made available to the public on the Recovery.gov Web site to achieve an unprecedented level of transparency into the ways Federal funds are spent.
Reporting Requirements
Section 1512 requires awardees to submit a quarterly report, due no later than 10 calendar days after each calendar quarter in which the recipient receives the award (Jan 10, April 10, July 10, and Oct 10). Reports are cumulative each quarter and include information such as the award amount, a project description, project location, percent project completed, and number of jobs created/retained. The full list of data elements can be found in the data model provided by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). OMB has also created a general guidance memorandum for Section 1512 recipient reporting.
