Under FAQ @ USAspending.gov .. near bottom of pg:

Policy Guidance for Safety/Security Concerns:

Q. I am a prime recipient entity that received a federal financial assistance award (for the purposes of these FAQs, Federal financial assistance does not include procurement activities). [1] The safety and security of the employees of my entity may be threatened if identifying information about my entity is displayed publicly on USAspending.gov. Does my entity meet the exemption requirements for the awarding federal agency to not report entity-identifying award information about my entity on USAspending.gov?

A. The awarding federal agency may exempt your entity under 2 CFR § 25.110(d)(2)(i) from reporting entity identifying award information into USAspending.gov if such compliance will jeopardize the personal safety of the employees of your entity. In these situations, your entity must work with the awarding federal agency responsible for determining if the conditions support an exemption. If the exemption is granted, the awarding federal agency will take the necessary steps to report the award without reporting your entity's identifying information. Contact your awarding federal agency with any questions about this guidance. (Back to Top)

Q. I am a prime recipient entity that received a grant or cooperative agreement. If my entity is exempt from having its award identifying information displayed on USAspending.gov, is my entity also exempt from reporting its subawards?

A. Yes. If the awarding agency exempts your entity under the conditions in 2 CFR § 25.110(d)(2)(i) because of "classified information or national security or jeopardizing the personal safety" and/or under 2 CFR § 25.110(d)(2)(ii) because its "project or program is performed outside the United States valued at less than $25,000,"then your entity is also exempt from the requirements to report its subawards. Contact your awarding federal agency with any questions about this guidance. (Back to Top)

Q. Can my entity, a prime recipient that received a grant or cooperative agreement, determine that my subawardee meets the exemption conditions in 2 CFR § 25.110(d)(2)(i) and/or 2 CFR § 25.110(d)(2)(ii) and not report them in USAspending.gov?

A. Maybe. Your awarding federal agency may authorize you, as a prime recipient entity, to make this determination, i.e., that your subaward recipient meets the conditions as specified in 2 CFR § 25.110(d)(2)(i) and/or 2 CFR § 25.110(d)(2)(ii). In situations where you are granted this authority, you must comply with agency requirements to ensure the data quality on USAspending.gov. Contact your awarding federal agency with any questions about this guidance. (Back to Top)

Q. As a prime award recipient entity that received a grant or cooperative agreement, our information has been displayed in USAspending.gov for past awards. We believe that our new award activities meet the exemption conditions specified 2 CFR § 25.110(d)(2)(i) and/or 2 CFR § 25.110(d)(2)(ii). For the purposes of these new awards, can our entity be exempt from reporting entity identifying award information into USAspending.gov?

A. Maybe. Your awarding federal agency may exempt you, as prime award recipient entity, from reporting identifying award information into USAspending.gov if the entity's new activities meet the conditions as specified in 2 CFR § 25.110(d)(2)(i) and/or 2 CFR § 25.110(d)(2)(ii). In these situations, your entity should work with the awarding federal agency to see if an exemption applies. Contact your awarding federal agency with any questions about this guidance
