The Recovery Act sets specific reporting requirements for government agencies and recipients of Recovery funds to measure the plan's progress. For example, Section 1512 says that within 10 days after the end of each calendar quarter, recipients of Recovery funds must submit reports on the use of those funds. The first reports were submitted between Oct. 1 and Oct. 10, 2009; the next reports will be submitted in January 2010.
