CERTIFICATION

This is to certify that:

1. 1. I have reviewed that indirect cost allocation plan proposal submitted herewith and to the best of my knowledge and belief:
2. 2. All costs included in the proposal for Fiscal Year 2027 to establish billing or final indirect cost rates are allowable in accordance with the requirements of the grant(s), contract(s), and agreement(s) to which they apply and the provisions of the Code of Federal Regulations, Chapter 11 Part 200 (2 CFR 200).
3. 3. Unallowable costs have been adjusted for in allocating costs and indicated in the cost allocation plan.
4. 4. This proposal complies with the requirement and standards on lobbying costs for OMB Circular A-122 or Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR), Part 31, where such cost principles are applicable to the award.
5. 5. All costs included in this proposal are properly allocable to Federal Awards on the basis of a beneficial or casual relationship between expenses incurred and the agreements to which they are allocated in accordance with the applicable requirements. Further, the same costs that have been treated as indirect costs have not been claimed as direct costs. Similar types of costs have been accounted fore consistently and the Federal Government will be notified of any significant accounting changes affecting the direst cost rate.

Subject to the provisions of the Program Fraud Civil Remedies Act of 1986 (31 U.S.C. 3801 et. Seq.), the False Claims Act (18 U.S.C. 287 and 31 U.S.C. 3729), the False Statement Act (18 U.S.C. 1001); I declare that, to the best of my knowledge, the foregoing is true and correct.
