  13. Direct Appropriation ProcessWhat projects must be approved & by whom? • The Public School Facilities Authority (PSFA) approves building plans for all projects related to public school construction when total project costs are greater than $200,000 • The PED approves direct legislative appropriations for all non-construction projects and construction projects totaling $200,000 or less

  14. Direct Appropriation Process • Use correct project plan approval form • PSFA - Request for Approval of School Construction (RASC) • PED - Request to Obligate Funds (RTOF) • Clearly identify funding sources • Breakdown of items (bids, quotes) and timeline for project completion • PED reviews for legislative intent and funding source

  15. Direct Appropriation Process • Funds must be “expended” on or before the reversion date • Funds are considered “expended” with an “expenditure” occurring as of the date goods are delivered to and received by the Grantee • It is not sufficient to “encumber” the funds on or before the reversion date
