As a recipient of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) State Fiscal Recovery Funds (SFR) the State of Vermont is required to submit quarterly Project and Expenditure Reports to the United States Treasury. Quarterly reports cover three calendar months and include various data elements including project, subaward and expenditure information. Treasury’s Portal for compliance reporting is organized by modules, each of which is a project component: project entry, subrecipient entry, subaward entry, and expenditure entry.

The ARPA - State Fiscal Recovery Quarterly Project Overview dataset provides a high level overview of each project being funded and matches what was submitted to the U.S. Treasury using the Project module. Data is collected quarterly from at least 26 different entities.

According to the U. S. Treasury, a project is defined as "a grouping of closely related activities that together are intended to achieve a specific goal or are directed toward a common purpose." Within this broad definition, recipients have flexibility to define their projects in a way that provides the greatest clarity on the work which will be performed. In Vermont's case, many of the projects listed can be considered true projects that take place in a particular location but there are also a few that may be considered more programmatic in nature.

For each project, recipients are asked to select an appropriate Expenditure Category based on the scope of the project (as described in Appendix 1 of the Reporting Guidance). The 83 Expenditure Categories provide a flexible method to categorize projects. Each Expenditure Category could include many different programs and activities.

The Federal Coronavirus Local Fiscal Recovery Fund (CLFRF) was established under section 9901 of the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA).The fund provides substantial funding to local governments. The U.S. Department of Treasury established two separate methods for local governments to request funding, depending on the type of local government.

Local governments that are NOT metropolitan cities or counties – called non-entitlement units of local government (NEUs) – requested funds through the State of Vermont. Allocations of funds to NEUs are based on the proportion of the population in the NEU as a share of the total population of all NEUs in the state.

County governments generally requested funds directly from the the U.S. Department of the Treasury through their submission portal. However, in Vermont's case, county governments are not considered unit of general local government and so amounts were instead requested from the State by the local governments within each county which included both non-entitlement units of local government (NEUs) and metropolitan cities. As noted in the Guidance on Counties that are Not Units of General Local Government, NEUs and metropolitan cities located in Non-UGLG counties that receive funds under Section 603(b)(3)(B)(ii) of the Act must have already accepted the award terms for payments made under Section 603(b)(2) (for NEUs) or section 603(b)(1) (for metropolitan cities). The State received a specific allocation of funds from the Treasury and calculated allocations based on population.

For both sources of funding, local governments received payments in two tranches, with 50% provided beginning in May/June 2021 and the balance delivered approximately 12 months later.
