Docusign Envelope ID: D2B08FE9-D3A2-8D40-8201-D046ABBF01DC
D. ALLOWABLE COSTS AND SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION
All costs claimed on each reimbursement request must be supported with back-up
documentation. This may include time sheets, invoices, allocation assumptions, approved
indirect or administrative overhead cost plans, etc. Descriptions of allowable costs and
examples of appropriate back-up documentation are provided below. This list is not exhaustive.
If there are questions about whether a cost is allowable and what will be accepted as
appropriate back-up documentation, the Court Program Manager should seek direction and
approval in writing from the AOC Program Manager in advance of the purchase and claim for
reimbursement.
1. Staff/FTE (salaries and benefits)

must be proportioned to the amount of time the employee processes and/or
provides service to referrals and must be documented by time and attendance
records. NOTE: This does not mean that timesheets must be completed to track
the time spent. Documenting the process for determining the amount of time the
person(s) spends on juvenile court early intervention duties is acceptable. For
example, keep track of time for at least a week and then determine the
percentage to be charged.

documented and approved by the court administrator. This internal administrative
rate must be documented with the formula used to determine the rate.
Documentation must be on file locally and available to AOC and State Auditor.

Docusign Envelope ID: D2B08FE9-D3A2-8D40-8201-D046ABBF01 DC
Allocation Process
Each biennium, an appropriation is provided by the Washington State Legislature to
the AOC to offset the costs associated with the processing and case management of
Becca referrals. In the 2026 Supplemental budget, the legislature increased funding
by $3 million for this fiscal year only, for a total Fiscal Year 2027 appropriation of $5
million.
The Legislature also provides the following direction through budget proviso:
"The administrator for the courts, in conjunction with the juvenile court
administrators, shall develop an equitable funding distribution formula. The
formula must neither reward counties with higher than average per-
petition/referral processing costs nor shall it penalize counties with lower than
average per-petition/referral processing costs."
Allocation of the funding is based on calendar year caseload data from each county
for CHINS, ARY, and Truancy referrals/filings. The CHINS and ARY filing data are
available through the online Caseloads of the Courts of Washington Reports. The
source of Truancy filings is a query from the Judicial Information System (JIS)/EDR
Statewide database and limited to 0-16-year-olds. CHINS; ARY and Truancy referral
data is provided to AOC via local monthly caseload. Caseload data must be counted
as a referral or a petition, but not both.
The AOC Program Manager maintains an allocation spreadsheet. The calculation is
as follows:
• Sums three years of CHINS and ARY filings and calculates a percentage of the
total for each county.
• Sums three years of Truancy filings limited to 0-16-year-olds and calculates a
percentage of the total for each county.
• Applies a weighted allocation to the total funding, 46 percent of the CHINS and
ARY / 54 percent of the Truancy filings. Allocates the total available funding
based upon the weighted allocation percentage.
• A small county base is established at $5,000. Where counties' weighted
allocation results in less than $5,000 for the fiscal year, then those allocations are
set at $5,000 and all other counties' weighted allocations are lowered to cover
the small county base.
