Fiscal Accountability

The Arkansas Division of Services for the Blind (DSB) receives sufficient state appropriated funds each year to essentially meet the match and considerably larger maintenance of effort (MOE) requirement by June 30, which is the end of the state fiscal year. As a result, in the 4th quarter of the federal fiscal year, any additional funds requested and received through the reallotment process and unobligated federal funds available for carryover, are already matched and can be used for allowable program costs in the subsequent federal fiscal year. This practice enables DSB to effectively increase their fiscal accountability.
