Award information shall be submitted by the ADMINISTERING AGENCY to the <br /> District Local Assistance Engineer within 60 days of project contract award and prior to <br /> the submittal of the ADMINISTERING AGENCY'S first invoice for the construction <br /> contract. <br /> Failure to do so will cause a delay in the State processing invoices for the construction <br /> phase. Attention is directed to Section 15.7 "Award Package" of the Local Assistance <br /> Procedures Manual. <br /> D. ADMINISTERING AGENCY agrees, as a minimum, to submit invoices at least once <br /> every six months commencing after the funds are encumbered for each phase by the <br /> execution of this Project Program Supplement Agreement, or by STATE's approval of an <br /> applicable Finance Letter. STATE reserves the right to suspend future <br /> authorizations/obligations for Federal aid projects, or encumbrances for State funded <br /> projects, as well as to suspend invoice payments for any on-going or future project by <br /> ADMINISTERING AGENCY if PROJECT costs have not been invoiced by <br /> ADMINISTERING AGENCY for a six-month period. <br /> If no costs have been invoiced for a six-month period, ADMINISTERING AGENCY <br /> agrees to submit for each phase a written explanation of the absence of PROJECT <br /> activity along with target billing date and target billing amount. <br /> ADMINISTERING AGENCY agrees to submit the final report documents that collectively <br /> constitute a "Report of Expenditures" within one hundred eighty (180) days of PROJECT <br /> completion.
