Major programs are determined using a risk-based approach. A Type-A program is defined as a program where total Federal expenditures are the larger of 3% of Federal funds expended or $750,000. Those programs not labeled Type-A are considered Type-B programs. Risk assessments are performed on both Type-A and Type-B programs in accordance with Federal guidelines. Based on this assessment, programs are selected as major programs.
