Can a grantee reallocate funds for a portion of the scope of a single project? If this scenario is permitted, do the portions reallocated have to align with the budget breakdown approved in the original application?
Yes, it is permissible for a recipient to request the reallocation of a portion of a project’s proposed scope, provided that the remaining scope results in a viable project with an independent resilience benefit. In this case, the recipient should submit a revised project budget breakdown reflecting the reduced scope.
