Please Note: Due to the new Grant Accountability and Transparency Act (GATA), Special Fund Grant Applications for Pheasant, Habitat, Furbearer, Migratory Waterfowl (Duck) and Wildlife Preservation will be replaced with one form (refer to list of forms at the bottom on the page).
The standardized forms for performance and financial reporting are:
The Special Wildlife Funds are REAPPROPRIATED ACCOUNTS. This is what the Comptroller's Office says about the change to the new fiscal year beginning July 1, 2022.
"All vouchers payable from FY22 expenditure authority accounts that are reappropriated for FY23 must be received in the IOC by June 17, 2022. Agencies must clearly identify these on the face of the schedule and vouchers. No lapse period spending will be permitted on accounts that are reappropriated. The unliquidated portion of obligations for multi-year contracts against reappropriated accounts will be deobligated by the IOC as of June 30, 2022. Agencies should coordinate the re-establishment of these obligations in FY23 with the Obligations Unit."
