This <br /> lead agency should take responsibility for coordinating with the other Federal awarding agencies. <br /> Such coordination will provide uniform waiver criteria and adjudication processes, minimize <br /> duplicative efforts among Federal agencies, and reduce burdens on recipients. The Cognizant <br /> Agency for Made in America shall be responsible for consulting with the other Federal awarding <br /> agencies, publicizing the proposed joint waiver, and submitting the proposed joint waiver for <br /> review to MIAO. <br /> CPD Record Keeping Requirements <br /> To comply with BABA, the BAP must be included in the terms and conditions of all federal <br /> awards including subawards, contracts, and purchase orders for the work performed or products <br /> supplied for infrastructure projects. CPD grantees should document the process to analyze if the <br /> BAP applies to a project using the approach in this Notice and collect records to demonstrate <br /> compliance with BABA requirements. Records should be consistent with existing records retention <br /> requirements for each of the Covered CPD programs. If there are no CPD program-specific records <br /> requirements,the CPD grantee may follow"retention requirements for records,"under 2 CFR § <br /> 200.334 as applicable to Federal grants. <br /> HUD will issue guidance about reporting on BABA required activities under 24 CFR <br /> 91.520, at a later date. At this time, CPD is working to include the BAP into its existing CPD <br /> systems (Integrated Disbursement and Information System, Disaster Recovery Grant Reporting <br /> System) for grantees to generate reports to track progress and compliance with BABA. <br /> Additional details on record keeping requirements will be determined by HUD and shared with <br /> CPD grantees as it is available. <br /> V. Contact Information <br /> Grantees that have questions on this Notice should contact their assigned HUD Field Office <br /> Representative or send their request directly to CPDBABA@hud.gov. CPD Field Offices should <br /> direct inquiries and comments to their program desk officer. <br /> 20 <br />
