The accompanying Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards includes the federal grant activity of the Superintendence of Capitol Building under programs of the federal government for the year ended June 30, 2022. The information in this schedule is presented in accordance with the requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Therefore, some amounts presented in this schedule may differ from the amounts presented in, or used in the preparation of, the basic financial statements. Because the schedule presents only a selected portion of the operations of the Superintendence of Capitol Building, it is not intended to and does not present the financial position and changes in net assets of the Superintendence of Capitol Building. The Assistance Listing Number (ALN), formerly known as the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) Number, is a five-digit number assigned in the awarding document for all federal assistance award mechanisms, including federal grants and cooperative agreements. Assistance listings are detailed public descriptions of federal programs that provide grants, loans, scholarships, insurance, and other types of assistance awards. The Sam.gov assistance listing is the publicly available online database showing all available Federally funded programs. State or local government redistributions of federal awards to the Superintendence of Capitol Building, known as “pass–through awards”, should be treated by the Superintendence of Capitol Building as though they were received directly from the federal government. The Uniform Guidance requires the schedule to include the name of the pass–through entity and the identifying number assigned by the pass–through entity for the federal awards received as a sub recipient. Numbers identified as N/A are not applicable and numbers identified as N/AV are not available.
