Webinar 8: Differences Between Current and Former Standards
Key differences between the current procurement standards and the previous procurement standards.

- For emergency and major disaster declarations issued before December 26, 2014, the rules for states, local governments, and tribes were located at 44 C.F.R. § 13.36, and the rules for nonprofits were located at 2 C.F.R. §§ 215.40-.48. (See archival 2014 Field Manual)
