   C8.4.3.1. At the end of each fiscal year, the CCMDs and SCOs are required to submit the actual annual costs and future two-year FMF Administrative budget projections associated with conducting EEUM, including travel to perform physical security and accountability inventories of in-country equipment and future deliveries and to attend Regional EUM Forums. To maintain accurate cost data and reporting, EUM managers should ensure that upon completion of each EEUM visit the cost is documented and entered into the Security Assistance Automated Resource Management System (SAARMS) under the appropriate expense code for EEUM (Code 210EM). Each entry should include a brief description of the EEUM function performed, e.g., number of personnel, equipment inventoried, locations visited.

   C8.4.3.2. On a case-by-case basis, SCOs may request, through the CCMD, FMF Administrative funding to meet unexpected requirements to perform EEUM checks due to disposal verifications or other unforeseen EUM-related activities for which funding was not requested in the regular budget cycle. Unfunded requirements must be submitted to the appropriate CCMD for approval. When CCMD FMF Administrative funds are not sufficient or available, CCMDs may request FMF Administrative funding from DSCA (Business Operations Directorate) to meet unforeseen SCO requirements.
