2. Retirement investment, money manager, and custodian fees are excluded from eligible spend in this report, but will be included in a separate report produced by the Finance Division and Investment Manager.
3. In the event that a business is eligible for both MBE and WBE certifications, the MBE certification is counted. However, a business may elect to maintain only a WBE certification. As a result, the Caucasian Female dollar percent will not exactly match the WBE percent.
4. Payments to subcontractors are reported by prime contractors on a monthly basis, the total of which is reflected in Column J above. In some cases, depending on the date of prime payment and the date of reported sub payment, these payments could be split across reporting periods.
