The Principle of Time Sample Clauses

The Principle of Time. The principle of time relates to the duration or period of time during which appropriated funds are available “to incur obligations and . . . to make expenditures.” The obligations and expenditures must be for bona fide needs to carry out the purpose (i.e., necessary expenses) during the time period specified in the appropriation document. Payments may be made after the available time period “only for payment of expenses properly incurred during the period of availability or to complete contracts properly made within that period of availability.”29 SNPLMA funds are “no-year funds,” meaning they can be authorized for expenditure by the Secretary at any time “until expended.” However, availability of project funds approved by the Secretary is limited by the duration of the project stated in the nomination as reflected in the project financial instrument, including modifications to the instrument that reflect any approved time extensions. The Secretary has directed that “projects will be implemented within the timeframe specified in the project nomination” and that time extensions should be “exceptions to the expected practice of timely implementation of projects and therefore limited in number and scope.”30 The Principle of Time is applied to SNPLMA projects as follows:  Funds are not authorized for obligation or new expenditures if the initial financial instrument has not been executed and received, or the time period of availability, referred to as the period of performance, in the funding instrument has expired, even if approval of a time extension is pending or anticipated.  The project “start date” is established by the execution date of the initial IAA, BLM task order, or Assistance Agreement and, for projects under transfer, the date the initial transfer request is forwarded to the IBC for entry into the U.S. Treasury system for processing and as reflected in the Authorization to Expend Transferred Funds Letter. When the project timeframe in the approved nomination is documented in the executed financial instrument (IAA, Assistance Agreement, Task Order, or Authorization to Expend Transferred Funds Letter) as explained above, the timeframe is then referred to as the “period of performance.” 28 This guidance has been in place since late 2007 and has been shared verbally with eligible agencies/entities.
