FEDERAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY


The National Board Fiscal Year 1999 Plan for Carrying Out the 
Emergency Food and Shelter Program (EFSP)

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This notice sets out the plan by which the Emergency Food and 
Shelter Program National Board (National Board) is conducting a program 
during FY 1999 to distribute $100,000,000 to private voluntary 
organizations and local governments for delivering emergency food and 
shelter to needy individuals. The distribution formula for selecting 
organizations and localities, and the award amount for each, follow the 
Plan text.

DATES: The award to the National Board was made October 28, 1998.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Carol Coleman, Preparedness, Training 
and Exercise Directorate, Federal Emergency Management Agency, (202) 
646-3107, or Yolanda L. Jones, Program Specialist, (202) 646-4543, of 
the Preparedness, Training and Exercise Directorate, Federal Emergency 
Management Agency.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title III of the Stewart B. McKinney 
Homeless Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 11301 et seq., authorizes use of 
funds appropriated by the Congress to supplement and expand ongoing 
efforts to provide shelter, food, and supportive services to homeless, 
needy individuals.

    As in past phases, grant awards from this program address temporary 
emergency needs. This program is not to address or correct structural 
poverty or long-standing problems. Rather, this appropriation is to 
purchase food and shelter to supplement and expand current available 
resources and not to substitute or reimburse ongoing programs and 
services.

    Use this funding to target special emergency needs. And when we 
discuss emergency needs we are referring to economic, not disaster-
related, emergencies. The funding should supplement feeding and 
sheltering efforts in ways that make a difference. What that means is: 
EFSP is not to make up for budget shortfalls or to be just a line item 
in an annual budget; funds should not go to the same agencies for the 
exact same purposes every year; and, the funding is open to all 
organizations helping hungry and homeless people and not that the funds 
should go only to Local Board member agencies or local government 
agencies.

    Having stated what it is not, what does the National Board want 
this program to be? As we read the law, EFSP should:

     Create inclusive local coalitions that meet regularly to 
determine the best use of funds and to monitor their use in their 
respective communities;

     Treat every program year as a fresh opportunity to 
reassess what particular community needs (e.g., on-site feeding or 
utility assistance, mass shelter or homelessness prevention, etc.) 
should be addressed;

     Encourage agencies to work together to emphasize their 
respective strengths, work out common problems, and prevent duplication 
of effort; and,

     Ensure that the program is helping to meet the needs of 
special populations such as minorities, Native Americans, veterans, 
families with children, the elderly, and the handicapped.

    We re-emphasize that this program has a commitment to emergency 
services. We continue to view it as an opportunity for building a 
cohesive emergency structure that can, for example:

     Coordinate the assistance provided, across agencies, to 
families and individuals applying for rental, mortgage, or utility 
assistance;

     Enhance a food banking network that is economical in its 
cost and broad in its coverage; reinforce creative cooperation among 
feeding; and sheltering sites to ensure help for street populations 
most in need; and

     Establish or maintain a system that complements rather 
than supplants existing private and governmental efforts to provide 
rent, mortgage, or utility assistance.

    The National Board is aware that we ask much of our voluntary Local 
Boards and LROs, and that we provide very little administrative 
funding. But the cooperative model that EFSP helps create can be a 
useful vehicle for many governmental and community-based programs. As a 
group, local providers can accomplish much:

     Initiating a dialogue with local offices of Federal 
entities such as the U.S. Department of Agriculture to take full 
advantage of excess commodities and its other programs or with the U.S. 
Department of Labor's Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA);

     Working with Federal programs that require the input of 
local providers such as the Department of Housing and Urban 
Development's Community Development Block Grant or Emergency Shelter 
Grant and the Department of Health and Human Services' Health Care for 
the Homeless;

     Pooling agency efforts to gain Federal (for example, HUD's 
Transitional Housing Program) and private foundation grants;

     Leveraging EFSP funds within the community by encouraging 
matches of local EFSP allocations from State and local governments and 
private resources; and,

     Exchanging ideas on administrative and accounting methods 
that can improve delivery of services and focus on the collaborative 
rather than the competitive aspects of agency relations.

    Sixteen years ago this program began as a one-time effort to help 
address urgent needs. The survival of this public-private partnership 
is not only a testament to needs, but also to the effectiveness of EFSP 
as an example of local decision-making and community responsibility in 
attempting to meet those needs.

    EFSP is a reminder of this nation's willingness to confront 
difficult problems within the society in new ways. But most 
importantly, EFSP feeds and shelters homeless and hungry people, it 
maintains homes and the families in those homes, and it creates useful 
public-private partnerships within communities.

1.0  Background and Introduction

    The Emergency Food and Shelter Program was established on March 24, 
1983, with the signing of the ``Jobs Stimulus Bill,'' Public Law 98-8. 
That legislation created a National Board, chaired by FEMA, which 
consisted of representatives of the American Red Cross; Catholic 
Charities, USA; the Salvation Army; Council of Jewish Federations, 
Inc.; United Way of America; and the National Council of Churches of 
Christ in the U.S.A.


[[Page 22913]]


    From the first appropriation in 1983, through its authorization 
under the Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act (Pub. L. 100-77--
signed into law on July 24, 1987, subsequently reauthorized under Pub. 
L. 100-628, signed into law on November 7, 1988), the Emergency Food 
and Shelter Program has distributed $1.8 billion to over 11,000 social 
service agencies in more than 2,500 communities across the country.

    From its inception, the unique features of this program are the 
partnerships it establishes. At the national level, the Federal 
government and National Board member organizations have the legal 
responsibility to work together to set allocations criteria and 
establish program guidelines. Such coalitions, as set forth in the law, 
are even more vital on the local level. In each community Local Boards 
make the most significant decisions on their own make-up and operation, 
the types of services most in need of supplemental help, what 
organizations should be funded and for what purpose and amount. These 
portions of the law remain unchanged and are the core of this unique 
public-private partnership.

1.1  Purpose.

    This publication outlines the roles, responsibilities, and 
implementation procedures that will be followed by the National Board, 
FEMA Local Boards, LROs, and SSA Committees, in the distribution and 
use of these funds.

    National in scope, EFSP will provide food and shelter assistance to 
individuals in need through local private voluntary organizations and 
local governments in areas the National Board designates as being in 
highest need. The intent of EFSP is to meet emergency needs by 
supplementing and expanding food and shelter assistance currently 
available to individuals. Individuals who received assistance under 
previous programs may again be recipients, providing they meet local 
eligibility requirements.

2.0  FEMA's Role and Responsibilities

    FEMA will perform the following EFSP activities:

    (a) Constitute a National Board consisting of individuals 
affiliated with United Way of America; The Salvation Army; the National 
Council of Churches of Christ in the USA; Catholic Charities, USA; the 
Council of Jewish Federations, Inc.; the American Red Cross; and FEMA;

    (b) Chair the National Board, using parliamentary procedures and 
consensus by the National Board as the mode of operation;

    (c) Provide policy guidance, management oversight, Federal 
coordination, and staff assistance to the National Board;

    (d) Award the grant to the National Board;

    (e) Assist the Secretariat in implementing the National Board 
Program;

    (f) Report to Congress on the year's program activities through the 
Interagency Council on the Homeless Annual Report;

    (g) Conduct audits of the program;

    (h) Monitoring program compliance with current Federal and program 
guidelines; and

    (i) Initiate Federal collection procedures to collect funds or 
documentation due when the efforts of the National Board have not been 
successful.

3.0  National Board's Role and Responsibilities

    (a) National Board's EFSP activities

    The National Board will perform the following EFSP activities:

    (1) Select jurisdictions of highest need for food and shelter 
assistance and determine amount to be distributed to each;

    (2) Notify national organizations interested in emergency food and 
shelter to publicize the availability of funds;

    (3) Develop the operational manual for distributing funds and 
establish criteria for expenditure of funds;

    (4) In jurisdictions that received previous awards, notify the 
former Local Board chair that new funds are available. In areas newly 
selected for funding, notify the local United Way, American Red Cross, 
Salvation Army, or local government official. The National Board will 
notify qualifying jurisdictions of award eligibility within 60 days 
following allocation by FEMA;

    (5) Provide copies of award notification materials to National 
Board member affiliates and other interested parties;

    (6) Secure board plan, certification forms and board rosters from 
Local Boards. Ensure Local Board compliance with established 
guidelines;

    (7) Distribute funds to selected LROs;

    (8) Hear appeals and grant waivers;

    (9) Establish an equitable system to accomplish the reallocation of 
unclaimed or unused funds. Unused or recaptured funds will be 
reallocated by the National Board, except in the case of State Set-
Aside counties whose funds may be reallocated by the respective State 
Set-Aside Committees;

    (10) Ensure that funds are properly accounted for, and that funds 
due are collected;

    (11) Provide consultation and technical assistance to local 
jurisdictions as necessary to monitor program compliance;

    (12) Compile the reports it receives from the Local Boards and 
submit a detailed accounting of use of all program monies in the form 
of a report to FEMA;

    (13) Conduct a compliance review of food and shelter expenditures 
made under this program for specified LROs. The National Board, FEMA, 
the independent accounting firm selected by the National Board, or the 
Inspector General's office may also conduct an audit of these funds; 
and

    (14) Monitor LRO compliance with OMB Circular A-133.

    (b) Secretariat and Fiscal Agent.

    The National Board has selected the United Way of America as the 
Secretariat and fiscal agent to perform necessary administrative duties 
for the Board. An administrative allowance of one percent of the total 
award may be used for National Board administration.

3.1  Client Eligibility

    (a) Eligibility criteria.

    The National Board does not set client eligibility criteria. If the 
Local Board does not set eligibility criteria, the LRO may use its 
existing criteria or set criteria for assistance under this award. 
However, the LRO's criteria must provide for assistance to needy 
individuals without discrimination (age, race, sexual orientation, 
religion, national origin, or disability).

    (b) Where funds may be used.

    Funds allocated to a jurisdiction are intended for use within that 
jurisdiction. Residents of or transients in a specific jurisdiction 
should seek service within that jurisdiction.

    (c) Citizenship eligibility.

    Citizenship is not an eligibility requirement to receive assistance 
from EFSP. The National Board does not mandate nor recommend the use of 
any particular existing criteria such as food stamp guidelines, welfare 
guidelines, or income guidelines.

4.0  State Set-Aside (SSA) Committee Role and Responsibilities

    (a) SSA Committee's role.

    (1) The SSA process allows flexibility in selection of 
jurisdictions to target pockets of homelessness or poverty in non-
qualifying jurisdictions (refer to

[[Page 22914]]

Supplementary Information, above, on qualifying criteria), areas 
experiencing drastic economic changes such as plant closings, areas 
with high levels of unemployment or poverty that do not meet the 
minimum level of unemployment, or jurisdictions that have documented 
measures of need that are not adequately reflected in unemployment and 
poverty data.

    (2) The distribution of funds to SSA Committees will be based on a 
ratio calculated as follows: the State's average number of unemployed 
in non-funded jurisdictions divided by the average number of unemployed 
in non-funded jurisdictions nationwide equals the State's percentage of 
the total amount available for SSA awards.

    (b) SSA responsibilities.

    (1)(i) An SSA Committee in each State will recommend high-need 
jurisdictions and award amounts to the National Board. The SSA will 
give priority consideration to jurisdictions not meeting criteria for 
direct funding, from the National Board, although funded jurisdictions 
may receive additional funding. SSA Committees should also consider the 
special circumstances of jurisdictions that qualified in previous 
funding phases but are not eligible in the current phase. The State 
Committees may wish to provide these jurisdictions with an allocation 
so that the abrupt change in funding status does not disrupt local 
providers. We ask SSA Committees to consider current and significant 
State or local data in their deliberations. Although the National Board 
staff provides national data to the SSA Committees, it does not require 
any particular formula.

    (ii) In each State, we will notify the chair of the previous 
phase's SSA Committee of the award amount available to the SSA 
Committee. In a State where there are affiliates of the voluntary 
organizations represented on the National Board, the State affiliates 
must be invited to serve on the State Committee. If no single State 
affiliate exists, an appropriate representative should be invited. The 
Governor or his/her representative will replace the FEMA member. State 
Committees are encouraged to expand participation by inviting or 
notifying other private non-profit organizations on the State level. 
The National Board encourages the inclusion of Native Americans, 
minorities, and other appropriate representatives should be invited on 
the State Committee.

    (2) Members of the SSA Committee will elect a person to chair the 
committee.

    (3) The SSA Committees are responsible for the following:

    (i) recommending high-need jurisdictions and award amounts within 
the State. When selecting jurisdictions with demonstrated need, the 
National Board encourages the consideration of counties incorporating 
or adjoining Indian reservations. The SSA Committee has 25 working days 
to notify the National Board in writing of its selections and the 
appropriate contact person for each area. Note: The minimum award 
amount for a single jurisdiction is $1,000 and only whole-dollar 
amounts can be allocated.

    (ii) notifying the National Board of selection criteria that were 
used to determine which jurisdictions within the State were selected to 
receive funds. The National Board will then notify these jurisdictions 
directly. If SSA jurisdictions do not claim funds, SSA Committees may 
recommend other jurisdictions to receive the unclaimed funds.

    (4) The SSA Committee may use an administrative allowance of one-
half of one percent (0.5%) of the total SSA award to each State for its 
administration.

5.0  Local Boards' Role and Responsibilities

    (a) Local Boards' role and responsibilities.

    (1) Constituting Local Boards. Each area designated by the National 
Board to receive funds will constitute a Local Board. In a local 
community where there are affiliates of the United Way of America; The 
Salvation Army; the National Council of Churches of Christ in the 
U.S.A.; Catholic Charities, U.S.A; Council of Jewish Federations; and 
the American Red Cross that are represented on the National Board, they 
must be invited to serve on the Local Board. An agency's own governing 
board may not serve as a Local Board. The National Board requires that 
if a jurisdiction is located within or encompasses a federally 
recognized Indian reservation, the Local Board must invite a Native 
American representative to serve on the Board. All Local Boards must 
include in their membership a homeless or formerly homeless person. 
Local Boards should seek recommendations from LROs for an appropriate 
representative. Local Boards that cannot have homeless or formerly 
homeless representation must still consult with homeless or formerly 
homeless individuals, or former or current clients of food or housing 
services for their input. The County Executive/Mayor, appropriate head 
of local government or his or her designee will replace the FEMA 
member. We encourage Local Boards to expand participation and 
membership by inviting minority populations, other private non-profit 
organizations and government organizations. The Local Board's 
jurisdiction should be geographically represented as well.

    (2) Chair of the Local Board. The members of each Local Board will 
elect a chair.

    (3) Active Board Memberships. Local Board membership is not 
honorary; there are specific duties the board must perform. If a member 
cannot regularly attend meetings, the member should be replaced by 
another representative of the member's designated agency. If a member 
must be absent from a meeting, the member's organization may designate 
an alternate.

    (4) Localities not previously funded. If a locality has not 
received funding previously and is now designated as being in high 
need, the National Board designates the local United Way to constitute 
and convene a Local Board as described above. If there is no local 
United Way, or it does not convene the board, the local American Red 
Cross, the local Salvation Army, or a local government official will be 
responsible for convening the initial meeting of the Local Board.

    (5) Localities previously funded. If a locality has previously 
received National Board funding, the National Board will contact the 
former chairman of the Local Board about any new funding the locality 
is to receive.

    (6) Each award phase new. Each award phase is new. Therefore, the 
Local Board is a new entity in every phase. The convenor of the Local 
Board must ask each agency to designate or redesignate a representative 
every program year.

    (7) Local Board meeting options. The National Board requires Local 
Boards to select one of the following options for meetings:

    (i) Quarterly Meetings: We encourage Local Boards to meet quarterly 
to ensure that LROs are implementing the program according to 
guidelines. Meetings may be conducted via conference calls.

    (ii) Semiannual Meetings: Local Boards meeting twice a year must 
also ensure that LROs are implementing the program according to 
guidelines. Ongoing monitoring activities must take place. Local Boards 
electing to hold meetings semiannually must submit copies of their 
meeting minutes with the jurisdiction's final report.


[[Page 22915]]


    (8) Quorum; minutes. A majority of members must be present for the 
meeting to be official. Attendance and decision-making minutes must be 
kept. Meeting minutes must be voted on and approved by the Local Board 
at the next meeting. They must also be available to the National Board, 
Federal authorities, and the public on request.

    (9) Advertising and promoting the program. The Local Board will 
have 25 working days after the notification of the award selection by 
the National Board to advertise and promote the program to give any 
organization capable of providing emergency services an opportunity to 
apply for funds. Advertising must take place before the Local Board 
allocates funds. Failure to advertise properly will delay processing of 
the jurisdiction's board plan and subsequent payment of funds. Local 
Boards should allow at least one week for interested organizations to 
apply for funding. (Local Boards do not have to re-advertise fund 
availability for supplemental allocations within the same spending 
period.)

    (10) Local Board grant recommendations. The Local Board recommends 
which local organizations should receive grants and the amounts of the 
grants. Local Boards must have a written application process and 
consider all private voluntary and public organization applicants. In 
selecting LROs to receive funds, the Local Board must consider the 
demonstrated ability of an organization to provide food, shelter 
assistance or both. Local Board members should strive to use consistent 
criteria, sound judgment and fairness in their approach. Local Board 
membership must have no relationship to funding. Local Board members 
must abstain from voting on their own grant awards. Local Boards should 
select LROs to receive funds to supplement and expand eligible on-going 
services, and should not fund LROs before a needed service (i.e., fire 
victims, floods, tornadoes, etc.). Nor should Local Board select 
agencies for funding due to budget shortfalls or for cuts in other 
funding sources. Agencies on Indian reservations are eligible to 
receive EFSP monies if they meet LRO requirements.

    (11) Grant allocations. The minimum grant per LRO is $300 and only 
whole-dollar amounts may be allocated. The Local Board should be 
prepared to justify an allocation of one-third (\1/3\) or more of its 
total award to a single LRO.

    (12) Monitoring LROs. Local Boards are responsible for monitoring 
LROs that receive over $100,000 in Federal funds and ensuring that they 
comply with OMB Circular A-133.

    (13) Required forms. Local Boards must complete and return all 
required forms to the National Board. (Local Board Plan, Local Board 
Certification Form, and Local Board Roster.)

    (14) Certifications. Local Boards will secure and retain signed 
forms from each LRO certifying that each LRO has read and understands 
the program guidelines and that the LROs will comply with cost 
eligibility and reporting requirements.

    (15) Duplication of assistance. Local Boards must establish a 
system to ensure that no duplication of service occurs within the 
expenditure categories of rent, mortgage or utility assistance (RMU). 
Local Boards are free to establish any system as long as no duplication 
of rent/mortgage or utility assistance can take place under reasonable 
circumstances.

    (16) Client eligibility. Establish client eligibility, at Local 
Board's discretion. Local Boards may determine client eligibility for 
EFSP or use established LRO eligibility. LROs may develop and use 
separate needs test for assistance under EFSP but should first get 
Local Board approval. The Local Board should communicate eligibility 
criteria for assistance under EFSP to LROs.

    (17) Personnel changes. Local Boards must notify the National Board 
of changes in the Local Board chair, staff contact, or LRO contacts, 
including complete addresses and phone numbers.

    (18) Merging Local Boards. Local Boards that determine they can 
better use their resources by merging with neighboring boards may do 
so. The head of government or his or her designee for each jurisdiction 
must sit on the merged board, along with agency representatives from 
each jurisdiction. The merged Local Board must ensure that the award 
amount designated for each civil jurisdiction is used to provide 
assistance to individuals within that jurisdiction.

    (19) Guidelines and technical assistance. Local Boards must be 
familiar with current guidelines and provide technical assistance to 
service providers. National Board staff can provide advice and counsel.

    (20) Appeals. Local Boards must establish an appeals process to 
address participation or funding, to hear and resolve appeals made by 
funded or non-funded organizations, and to investigate complaints made 
by individuals or organizations. Local Boards should handle appeals 
promptly. If a Local Board cannot handle an appeal locally, the case 
should be referred in writing to the National Board and should include 
details on action that the Local Board has taken. Only when there is 
significant question of misapplication of guidelines, fraud, or other 
abuse on the part of the Local Board will the National Board consider 
action. Report cases involving fraud or other misuse of Federal funds 
to the Office of the Inspector General, FEMA, in writing or by 
telephone at 1-800-323-8603.

    (21) National Board/Local Board point of contacts. The chair of the 
Local Board or his or her designated staff will be the central 
coordination point of contact between the National Board and the LRO 
selected to receive assistance from EFSP.

    (22) Surplus food. If FEMA requests, the Local Board should 
nominate an appropriate feeding organization to receive surplus food 
from Department of Defense commissaries.

    (23) Monitoring programs.

    (i) Monitoring programs; reports. Boards will be responsible for 
monitoring programs carried out by the LROs they select to receive 
funds. Local Boards should work with LROs to ensure that funds LROs use 
to meet immediate food and shelter needs on an ongoing basis. Local 
Boards may not alter or change National Board cost eligibility or 
approve expenditures outside the National Board's criteria without 
National Board permission.

    (ii) Reports.

    (A) An interim report of expenditures is due to the National Board 
with each LRO's second check request. A final report (accompanied by 
financial documentation for specified LROs) is due 45 days after the 
end of each jurisdiction's program.

    (B) The National Board will provide forms for all required reports.

    (C) Local Boards may request other reports from their LROs at an 
appropriate time (e.g., monthly or quarterly updates).

    (24) Funds reallocations. The Local Board should reallocate funds 
whenever it determines that the original allocation plan does not 
reflect the actual need for services or if an LRO is unable to use its 
full award effectively. The Local Board must recover funds and 
reallocate them if an LRO makes ineligible expenditures or uses funds 
for items that have clearly not been approved by the Local Board. The 
National Board can reallocate funds held in escrow for LROs that have 
unresolved compliance problems or may reclaim the funds. The deadline 
to reallocate any funds held in escrow is July 30, 1999.

    (i) The Local Board may approve reallocation of funds between LROs 
that

[[Page 22916]]

are already participating in the program. However, the Local Board must 
inform the National Board in writing. The Local Board may also return 
funds to the National Board for reissuance to another LRO or request 
reallocation of remaining funds before the National Board releases the 
second or third payments.

    (ii) If the Local Board wishes to reallocate funds to an agency 
that it did not approve on the original board plan, the Local Board 
must make a written request for approval to the National Board. The 
National Board must approve an LRO before receipt of funds.

    (iii) Local Boards can reallocate funds from one service to another 
(e.g., from food to shelter) without National Board approval if the 
transfer is within an individual LRO.

    (iv) If a Local Board cannot satisfy the National Board that it can 
use funds in accordance with this plan, the National Board may 
reallocate the funds to other jurisdictions.

    (25) Misuse of EFSP funds.

    (i) Should anyone have reason to suspect that EFSP funds are being 
used for purposes contrary to the law and guidelines governing the 
program, the National Board recommends taking action to assist in 
bringing such practices to a halt.

    (ii) The National Board requires that whenever anyone suspects 
fraud, theft, or other criminal activity in connection with the use of 
EFSP funds, the Office of the Inspector General, (OIG), FEMA, should be 
immediately contacted. The Inspector General's Hotline number to call 
is 1-800-323-8603 or the complainant can write to: Office of the 
Inspector General, FEMA, 500 C Street SW, Washington, DC 20472. The 
complainant should include as much information as possible to support 
the allegation and preferably furnish his/her name and telephone number 
so that the special agent assigned to that office may make a follow-up 
contact. Federal law protects the confidentiality of any communication 
made with the OIG.

    (iii) A complainant desiring to remain totally anonymous should 
make a follow-up phone call to the OIG within 30 days from the date of 
the original complaint so that the OIG may ask any follow-up questions. 
Follow-up calls should be made to 1-202-646-3894 during normal business 
hours, Eastern Standard Time (charges may be reversed). The caller 
should advise that he/she is making a follow-up call regarding a prior 
anonymous complaint. The Office of the Inspector General, FEMA, will 
appropriately notify both local law enforcement authorities and the 
National Board concerning the substance of the allegations and the 
results of the investigation.

    (26) Expenditure Reports. Local Boards must submit reports to the 
National Board on LRO's expenditures as of the date they request each 
LRO's second/third check and should submit a final report within 45 
days after the jurisdiction's end-of-program date.

    (27) Review of reports and documentation.

    (i) After the close of the program, Local Boards must review the 
accuracy of all LROs reports and documentation. Local Boards should 
forward documentation for specified LROs to the National Board on 
request. If expenditures violate the eligible costs under this award, 
the Local Board must require reimbursement to the National Board.

    (ii) Local Boards must remain in operation until they satisfy all 
program and compliance requirements of the National Board. Local Boards 
must retain all records for three (3) years from the end-of-program 
date.

    (28) Extension of spending periods. Each jurisdiction will be 
granted the option to extend its spending period by 30, 60, or 90 days. 
This option will be offered during the summer of each phase. The 
extension applies to the entire jurisdiction. Should the jurisdiction 
receive a grant in the next phase, that phase's spending period will 
begin the day after the chosen end-date.

5.1 Variances and Waivers

    (a) Variances. Local Boards may receive requests for variances in 
the budgets that they approve for LROs. Local Boards may allow such 
changes provided that the requested items are eligible under this 
program. If there is any doubt on the part of the Local Board as to 
eligibility, it should contact the National Board for clarification. If 
an LRO requests an expenditure that falls outside the program 
guidelines, the Local Board, if in accord, must request in writing a 
waiver from the National Board before making the expenditure.

    (b) Waivers. Waivers requested by a LRO because of a compliance 
exception must be submitted to the Local Board. The Local Board will 
submit the waiver to the National Board for review. National Board 
staff will evaluate waiver requests and use discretion to approve or 
deny requests. In general, the National Board considers waiver requests 
that are not within the guidelines, but address the program's intent.

    The waiver request from the Local Board should clearly state the 
need for this exception, approximate costs, timelines or any other 
pertinent information that the National Board may need to make their 
decision.

6.0 Local Recipient Organizations' Roles and Responsibilities

    (a) Local Recipient Organizations' roles and responsibilities.

    (1) In selecting LROs to receive funds, the Local Board must 
consider the demonstrated ability of an organization to provide food 
and shelter assistance. Local Boards should select LROs to receive 
funds to supplement and expand eligible ongoing services, but not to 
fund in anticipation of a needed service (i.e., fire, flood, or tornado 
victims); nor should Local Boards select agencies for funding due to 
budget shortfalls or for cuts in other funding sources. Local 
participation in the program is not limited to organizations that are 
part of any State or national organization. Agencies on Indian 
reservations are eligible to receive EFSP funds if they meet LRO 
requirements set out in the EFSP program manual. Organizations that 
received awards under previous legislation may be eligible again 
provided that the organization still meets eligibility requirements.

    (2) For a local organization to be eligible for funding it must:

    (i) be nonprofit or an agency of government;

    (ii) have an accounting system or an approved fiscal agent;

    (iii) have a Federal employer identification number (FEIN), or be 
in the process of securing an FEIN (Note: contact local IRS office for 
more information on securing an FEIN and the necessary form [SS-4];

    (iv) conduct an independent annual audit if receiving $25,000 or 
more from EFSP;

    (v) practice nondiscrimination (those agencies with a religious 
affiliation that wish to participate in the program must agree not to 
refuse services to an applicant based on religion or require attendance 
at religious services as a condition of assistance, nor will such 
groups engage in any religious proselytizing in any program receiving 
EFSP funds); and,

    (vi) for private voluntary organizations, have a voluntary board.

    (3) Each LRO will be responsible for certifying in writing to the 
Local Board that it has read and agrees to abide by the cost 
eligibility and reporting standards of this publication and any other 
requirements made by the Local Board.


[[Page 22917]]


    (4) An LRO may not operate as a vendor for itself or other LROs 
except for the shared maintenance fee for food banks.

    (5) LROs selected for funding must:

    (i) Maintain records according to the guidelines stated in the EFSP 
program manual. Consult the Local Board chair/staff on matters 
requiring interpretation or clarification prior to incurring an expense 
or entering into a contract. It is important to have a thorough 
understanding of these guidelines to avoid ineligible expenditures and 
consequent repayment of funds. National Board staff can answer LROs' 
questions at (703) 706-9660 or (202) 646-3107.

    (ii) Provide services within the intent of the program. Funds are 
to be used to supplement and expand food and shelter services, not as a 
substitute for other program funds. LROs should take the most cost-
effective approach in buying or leasing eligible items/services, and 
should limit purchases to essential items within the $300 limit for 
equipment, unless the National Board has granted prior approval.

    (iii) Deposit funds for this program in a federally insured bank 
account. LROs must maintain proper documentation for all expenditures 
under this program according to the guidelines. Agencies should ensure 
that selected banks will return canceled checks. LROs' expenditures and 
documentation will be subject to review for program compliance by the 
Local Board, National Board or Federal authorities. LROs must maintain 
records for three years and any interest income must be put back into 
program expenditures.

6.1 Independent Annual Audit Requirements

    (a) LROs receiving $25,000 or less in EFSP funding. We will not 
require an independent annual audit for these LROs.

    (b) LROs receiving $25,000 or more in EFSP funding.

    (i) We will require an independent annual audit in accordance with 
Government Auditing Standards for these LROs. The National Board will 
accept an LROs national/regional annual audit if the LROs meet the 
following conditions:

    (i) The LRO is truly a subsidiary of the national organization 
(i.e., shares a single Federal tax exemption).

    (ii) The LRO is audited by the national/regional office internal 
auditors or other person designated by the national/regional office AND 
the national/regional office is audited by an independent certified 
public accountant or public accounting firm, which includes the parent 
organization's review of the LRO in a larger audit review.

    (iii) A copy of the local audit review by the parent organization 
along with a copy of the independent audit of the national/regional 
office will be made available by the parent organization to the 
National Board upon request.

    (2) In addition to the above requirements, any LRO receiving 
$100,000 or more in combined federal funds must have an audit made in 
accordance with OMB Circulars A-128 or A-133, as applicable.

    (3) Audits of units of government will be made annually unless 
State or local government had, by January 1, 1987, a constitutional or 
statutory requirement for less frequent audits. For those governments 
that have biennial audits, we permit audits covering both years.

6.2 Fiscal Agent/Fiscal Conduit Relationship

    (a) For National Board purposes, a fiscal agent is an agency that 
maintains all EFSP financial records for another agency. A fiscal 
conduit is an EFSP-funded agency that maintains all EFSP financial 
records on behalf of one or more agencies under a single grant. If any 
one agency in a jurisdiction is making bulk purchases for other 
agencies not funded directly, it must serve as a fiscal conduit and 
follow all the applicable rules.

    (b) The fiscal agent/fiscal conduit is the organization responsible 
for the receipt of funds, disbursement of funds to vendors, and 
documentation of funds received. The fiscal agent/fiscal conduit must 
meet all of the requirements of an LRO.

    (c) Local Boards may wish to use a fiscal agent/fiscal conduit when 
they desire to fund an agency that does not have an adequate accounting 
system nor conducts an annual audit, but nevertheless meets all other 
criteria. The Local Board may authorize funds to be channeled through 
another agency that is a designated fiscal agent/conduit. Fiscal 
agents/conduits are accountable for compliance with program 
requirements.

    (d) Any agency benefiting from funds received by a fiscal agent/
fiscal conduit must meet all of the criteria to be an LRO except the 
accounting system and annual audit requirements and must sign the 
Fiscal Agent/Fiscal Conduit Relationship Certification Form. For 
tracking purposes, all agencies funded through fiscal agents or fiscal 
conduits must secure a Federal Employer's Identification Number.

    (e) Fiscal agents/fiscal conduits may cut checks to vendors only. 
They may not cut checks to the agencies on whose behalf they are acting 
or to agencies/sites under their ``umbrella.'' The exception to this is 
when an agency is using the per diem allowance for mass shelters or the 
per meal allowance for served meals.

    (f) Fiscal agents must submit individual interim and final reports 
for each agency. Fiscal conduits will file a single interim report on 
their awards along with a breakdown of agencies and spending with the 
final report.

    (g) Any LRO with an outstanding compliance exception may not be 
funded under a fiscal agent/fiscal conduit. If a fiscal agent has an 
unresolved compliance exception, any other funds awarded to the fiscal 
agent (either as a grant for its own program or as fiscal agent for 
another agency) will be held in escrow until all compliance exceptions 
are resolved. Fiscal conduits will be audited as a single award, and 
will be handled as any other LRO.

6.3 Financial Terms and Conditions

    (a) Definitions.

    ``Local Recipient Organization'' refers to the local private or 
public organizations that will receive any award of funds from the 
National Board.

    ``Award'' refers to the award of funds made by the National Board 
to a local private or public organization on the recommendation of a 
Local Board.

    ``End-of-program date'' refers to the date, as agreed upon by Local 
and National Board, by which a given jurisdiction must spend or return 
all monies.

    (b) Amendments.

    The National Board may amend an award at any time based on written 
information provided by a Local Board. Both the National Board and the 
Local Board must execute amendments that reflect the rights and 
obligations of either party. The National Board may unilaterally issue 
administrative amendments such as changes in accounting data.

    (c) Local Board Authority Related to LROs.

    (1) The Local Board is responsible for monitoring expenditures of 
LROs providing food and/or shelter services, authorizing the adjustment 
of funds between food and shelter programs, and reallocating funds from 
one LRO to another.

    (2) Local Boards may not alter or change National Board cost 
eligibility or approve expenditures outside the National Board's 
criteria without

[[Page 22918]]

National Board permission. (Refer to Section 3.1 on Variances and 
Waivers.)

    (3) A Local Board can call back funds from an LRO and reallocate to 
another LRO in the case of gross negligence, inadequate use of funds, 
failure to use funds, failure to use funds for purposes intended, or 
for any other violation of the National Board guidelines, or in cases 
of critical need in the community. The Local Board must advise, in 
writing, all concerned LROs of any reallocation of their original 
award.

    (4)(i) If the Local Board discovers ineligible expenditures by an 
LRO, the Local Board must send to the organization a written request 
for reimbursement of the amount and must notify the National Board. If 
the LRO is unwilling or unable to reimburse the National Board for the 
ineligible expenditures, the Local Board must refer the matter to the 
National Board. The National Board may ask the Local Board to take 
further action to see that the LRO reimburses the National Board for 
any ineligible expenditures or the National Board may refer the matter 
to FEMA.

    (ii) If the Local Board suspects that an LRO has committed fraud, 
the Local Board must contact the Office of the Inspector General, FEMA, 
in writing or by telephone at 1-800-323-8603 with details of suspected 
fraud or misuse of Federal funds.

    (5) If an LRO received an award under previous phases, it must not 
include those funds in any reporting for the present awards. Reports 
should be confined to the amount granted by the National Board under 
the new appropriations legislation.

    (d) Cash Depositories.

    (1) Any money advanced to the LRO under the terms of this award 
must be deposited in a bank with Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation 
(FDIC) or Federal Savings & Loan Insurance Corporation (FSLIC) 
insurance coverage (whose responsibility has been taken over by FDIC), 
and the balance exceeding the FDIC or FSLIC coverage must be secured 
collaterally. LROs must put back into program costs any interest income 
earned on these monies.

    (2) LROs are encouraged to use minority banks (a bank owned at 
least 50 percent by minority group members). This is consistent with 
the national goal of expanding the opportunities for minority business 
enterprises. A list of minority-owned banks is available from the 
Office of Minority Business Enterprises, U.S. Department of Commerce, 
Washington, DC 20203.

    (e) Retention and Custodial Requirements for Records.

    (1) LROs must retain financial records, supporting documentation, 
statistical records, and all other records pertinent to the award for 
three years, with the following exceptions:

    (i) If any litigation, claim or audit begins before the expiration 
of the three-year period, the LRO must retain the records until 
resolution of all litigation, claims or audit findings involving the 
records.

    (ii) LROs must retain records for nonexpendable property, if any, 
acquired in part with Federal funds for three years after submission of 
a final report. ``Non-expendable property'' means tangible property 
having a useful life of more than one year and an acquisition cost of 
more than $300 per unit.

    (2) The retention period starts from the date the LRO submits the 
final expenditure report.

    (3) The National Board may request transfer of certain records to 
its custody from the LRO when it determines that the records possess 
long-term retention value. The LRO must make such transfers as 
requested.

    (4) The Director of FEMA, the Comptroller General of the United 
States, and the National Board, or any of their authorized 
representatives, will have access to any pertinent books, documents, 
papers, and records of the recipient organization, and its subgrantees 
to make audits, examinations, excerpts and transcripts.

    (f) Financial management systems. The LRO/fiscal agent or fiscal 
conduit must maintain a financial management system that provides for 
the following:

    (1) Accurate, current and complete disclosures of the financial 
results of this program.

    (2) Records that identify adequately the source and application of 
funds for federally supported activities. These records must contain 
information pertaining to Federal awards, authorizations, obligations, 
unobligated balances, assets, outlays, and incomes.

    (3) Effective control over and accountability for all funds, 
property, and other assets.

    (4) Procedures for determining eligibility of costs in accordance 
with the provisions of the EFSP manual.

    (5) Accounting records supported by source documentation. The LRO 
must maintain and retain a register of cash receipts and disbursements 
and original supporting documentation such as purchase orders, 
invoices, canceled checks, and whatever other documentation is 
necessary to support its costs under the program.

    (6) A systematic method to ensure timely and appropriate resolution 
of audit findings and recommendations.

    (7) In cases where more than one civil jurisdiction (e.g., a city 
and a balance of county, or several counties) recommends awards to the 
same LRO, the organization can combine these funds in a single account. 
However, separate program records for each civil jurisdiction award 
must be kept.

    (h) Payment.

    A first payment will be made to the LRO by the Secretariat upon 
recommendation of the Local Board and approval by the National Board. 
Second check requests include an interim report that each LRO must 
complete. The Local Board Chair signs the request and mails it to the 
National Board. Second/third installments will be held back until the 
National Board reviews and clears the jurisdiction's final Local Board 
report and documentation for the previous year.

    (i) Financial reporting requirements.

    (1) LROs must submit a financial status report to the Local Board; 
the Local Board will forward to the National Board 45 days after the 
jurisdiction's program ending date.

    (2) The National Board will provide the LRO, through the Local 
Board, with the necessary report forms well in advance of report 
deadlines.

    (j) Closeout procedures.

    The following definitions apply to closeout procedures:

    ``Close-out'' is the process by which the National Board determines 
that all applicable administrative actions and all required work of the 
award are complete.

    ``Disallowed costs'' are those charges that the National Board 
determines are unallowable under the legislation, National Board 
requirements, applicable Federal cost principles, or other conditions 
in the award. The applicable cost principles for Private Voluntary 
Organizations are contained in OMB Circular A-133, ``Audit of States, 
Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations,'' and OMB Circular A-
110, ``Uniform Administrative Requirements for Grants and Other 
Agreements with Institutions of Higher Education, Hospitals, and Other 
Non-Profit Organizations.'' The applicable cost principles for Public 
Organizations are contained in OMB Circular A-87, ``Cost Principles for 
State Agencies and Units of Local Governments.'' If you are unsure of 
where to find these circulars, check with your local Congressional 
Representative.

    (k) Suspension and Termination Procedures.


[[Page 22919]]


    The following definitions apply to suspensions and termination 
procedures:

    ``Local Board Authority'' is authority to suspend/reallocate all or 
a portion of an LRO's award at its discretion for any cause (i.e., 
inability to deliver services, suspected fraud, violation of eligible 
costs, changing need in the community, etc.).

    ``Suspension'' of the award is an action by the Local Board or 
National Board that temporarily suspends Federal assistance under the 
award pending corrective action by the LRO or pending a decision by the 
National Board to terminate the award.

    ``Termination'' of the award means the cancellation of Federal 
assistance, in whole or in part, under the award at any time prior to 
the date of completion.

    (l) Lobbying.

    (1) Pub. L. 101-121, section 319, states that an LRO will not use 
Federally appropriated grant funds for lobbying activities. This 
condition bars the use of Federal money for political activities, but 
does not in any way restrict lobbying or political activities paid for 
with non-Federal funds. This condition prohibits the use of Federal 
grant funds for the following activities:

    (i) Federal, State or local electioneering and support of such 
entities as campaign organizations and political action committees;

    (ii) Direct lobbying of the Congress and State legislatures to 
influence legislation;

    (iii) Grassroots lobbying concerning either Federal or State 
legislation;

    (iv) Lobbying of the Executive branch in connection with decisions 
to sign or veto enrolled legislation; and,

    (v) Efforts to use State or local officials to lobby the 
Congressional or State Legislatures.

    (2) Any LRO that will receive more than $100,000 in EFSP funds must 
submit the following before grant payment:

    (i) a certification form that the LRO will not use EFSP funds for 
lobbying activities; and,

    (ii) a disclosure of lobbying activities (if applicable).

6.4  Grant Payment Process

    (a) United Way of America is the fiscal agent for the National 
Board and will process all Local Board plans. Payments will be made to 
organizations recommended by Local Boards for funding.

    (b) The National Board offers two methods of payment to LROs: 
direct deposit (electronic funds transfer) or checks. The National 
Board encourages LROs to take advantage of direct deposit where 
possible.

    (c) The National Board will pay all awards totaling less than 
$100,000 in two equal installments. They will pay awards totaling 
$100,000 or more in two equal installments upon submission of lobbying 
certification and disclosure.

    (d) The National Board will distribute second payments once it 
completes the jurisdiction's compliance review for the previous program 
period. Second payments will be held in escrow until the LRO satisfies 
all compliance exceptions. The deadline to request all second payments 
under Phase XVII is July 31, 1999. Therefore, for those LROs ineligible 
to receive their second checks due to unresolved compliance exceptions, 
Local Boards must reallocate their escrowed awards by July 31, 1999.

    (e) The National Board will mail all payments directly to the LRO, 
and will mail second payments to the LRO only upon the written request 
of the Local Board Chair, together with the LRO's interim report. The 
Local Board will authorize second payments once they are assured that 
the LRO is implementing the current program as intended and according 
to these guidelines.

6.5  Eligibility of Costs

    (a)(1) The intent of this appropriation is to purchase food and 
shelter to supplement and expand current available resources and not to 
substitute or reimburse ongoing programs and services. The LRO should 
clear questions regarding interpretation of the program's guidelines 
with the Local Board before action. Local Boards unsure of the meaning 
of these guidelines should contact the National Board at (703) 706-9660 
for clarification before advising the LRO. If an LRO requests an 
expenditure request that is not listed below as eligible, the Local 
Board may request a waiver from the National Board.

Note: It is the decision of the Local Board to choose between the $5/
$10 rate. This rate may vary from agency to agency.

    (A) The $5/$10 per diem, if elected, may be expended by the LRO for 
any cost related to the operation of the mass shelter; it is not 
limited to otherwise eligible items. The per diem allowance does not 
include the additional costs associated with food. Documentation

    (f) Administrative allowance.


[[Page 22922]]


    (1) There is an administrative allowance limitation of two percent 
(2%) of total funds received by the Local Board, excluding any interest 
earned. This allowance is a part of the total award, not in addition to 
the award. The local administrative allowance is intended for use by 
LROs or Local Boards and not for reimbursement of the program or 
administrative costs that a recipient's parent organization (its State 
or regional offices) might incur as a result of this additional 
funding.

    (2) The Local Board may elect to use, for its own administrative 
costs, all or any portion of the 2 percent allowance. The decision on 
distribution of the allowance among LROs rests with the Local Board. No 
LRO may receive an allowance greater than 2 percent of that LRO's award 
amount unless the LRO is providing the administrative support for the 
Local Board and it is approved by the National Board.

    (3) The SSA Committee, when in operation, may use a maximum of one-
half of one percent (0.5%) for its administrative costs in allocating 
the SSA grant. As with Local Board awards, this administrative 
allowance is part of the total award, not in addition to the award.

    (4) Any of the administrative allowance not used must be put back 
into program funds for additional services. Note: The administrative 
allowance may only be allocated in whole-dollar amounts.

    Required Documentation: None with the final report; LROs receiving 
funds for administration must retain documentation that the funds were 
spent on the direct administration of EFSP.

6.6  Required Documentation

    (a) Documentation. LRO documentation of EFSP expenditures requires 
copies of canceled checks (both sides) and itemized vendor invoices. An 
acceptable invoice has the following characteristics:

    (1) It must be vendor originated;

    (2) It must have name of vendor;

    (3) It must have name of purchaser;

    (4) It must have date of purchase;

    (5) It must be itemized; and,

    (6) It must have total cost of purchase.

    (b) Documentation may also include: per diem schedule, per meal 
allowance schedule, and mileage logs.

    (c) All LROs must periodically submit documentation to the National 
Board to ensure continued program compliance. Any LRO receiving over 
$100,000 in Federal funds must comply with OMB Circular A-133.

    (d) Reports. (1) In addition to the aforementioned documentation, 
LROs must submit reports to the Local Board by their due date. Interim 
report/second and third check request forms will be enclosed in the 
LROs' first check package. When the LRO is ready to request its second/
third check it must complete and sign the interim report and forward it 
to the Local Board for its review and approval. The Local Board chair 
should complete the reverse side (second/third check request) and mail 
it to the National Board. LROs must complete all portions of the final 
report form, return two copies to the Local Board, including one copy 
of documentation if requested, and retain a copy for their records.

    (2) The LRO must work with the Local Board to clear up quickly any 
problems related to compliance exception(s) at the end of the program.

7.0  Local Appeals Process

    (a) Fairness and openness. An appeals process is a statement to 
eligible agencies and to the community at large that the Local Board is 
interested in fairness and openness.

    (1) A good appeals process begins with prevention. If the Local 
Board includes both representatives of affiliates of the National Board 
and representatives of other groups involved with assisting hungry and 
homeless people, it is less likely to experience an appeal. Similarly, 
if the Local Board's decision-making process is open, thorough, and 
even-handed, appeals are less likely.

    (2) It is the responsibility of the Local Board to establish a 
written appeals process. That process may be simple or elaborate, 
depending on the needs of the community.

    (b) Appeals guidelines. The appeal process should meet the 
following guidelines:

    (1) It should be available to agencies and to the public upon 
request;

    (2) It should be timely, without undue delay;

    (3) It should include the basis for appeal (e.g., Provision of 
information not previously available to the group making the appeal or 
to the Local Board; correction of erroneous information; violation of 
Federal or National Board guidelines; or allegation of bias, fraud, or 
misuse of Federal funds on the part of the Local Board may be cause for 
appeal);

    (4) The decision should be communicated to the organization making 
the appeal in a timely manner. In the case of an appeal on the basis of 
fraud or other abuse of Federal funds, the Local Board must inform the 
agency making the appeal of the right of referral to the National 
Board;

    (c) Primary decision-maker. Except for cost and LRO eligibility, 
the Local Board is the primary decision-maker. Only when there is 
significant question of misapplication of guidelines, fraud, or other 
abuse on the part of the Local Board will the National Board consider 
action.

    (d) Common appeals practices. The National Board does not mandate 
any particular appeals process. However, some Local Boards have 
developed processes that work well for them and may offer some help to 
other communities. Common practices include the following:

    (1) Set a time period of not more than 30 days for agencies or 
organizations to appeal a funding decision;

    (2) Require written notice of appeal, signed by the Chief Volunteer 
Officer of the organization making the appeal;

    (3) The first level of appeal is usually to the Local Board, or to 
an executive committee of the board;

    (e) Appeals board; delegations. Some boards appoint one or more 
members to act as a liaison with the organization making the appeal:

    (1) In the case of an appeal for the purpose of providing 
previously unavailable information or correction of erroneous 
information, the process usually ends with prompt notification of 
decision (within ten working days of appeal).

    (2) In the case of appeals for the purpose of contesting alleged 
prejudice, violation of law or National Board guidelines, fraud, or 
misuse of Federal funds, some Local Boards have allowed appeals to a 
group other than the Local Board itself. This practice is not required 
but the National Board permits it. Such groups may simply be composed 
of different individuals representing the same organizations that make 
up the Local Board. They may also include an entirely different group 
of persons who have knowledge of the program and the Local Board deems 
them to be both responsible and unbiased, and to hold the trust of the 
community at large.

    (3) If the board chooses to delegate authority to any third party 
in an appeals process, the power and authority of that body should be 
clear. Is it simply advisory to the Local Board? Will the board abide 
by the decisions of this body as long as they are consistent with the 
law and the National Board guidelines?

    (4) The disposition of appeals is often communicated by telephone 
to the chief

[[Page 22923]]

professional and volunteer officers of the organization appealing 
immediately after a decision is made. In such cases, a written 
communication is sent as soon as possible confirming the action taken. 
The written communication is, of course, the official notification.

    (f) National Board role. It is important to reaffirm that the 
National Board does not require or advise any single appeals process.

8.0  Allocations Formula

    (a) Designation of Target Areas.

    (1) The National Board will select local jurisdictions to receive 
funds based on average unemployment statistics from the U.S. Department 
of Labor for the most current 12-month period (August 1, 1997--July 31, 
1998) available. The National Board also uses poverty statistics from 
the 1990 Census. The Board uses this approach in order to target funds 
for high-need areas more effectively. Funds designated for a particular 
jurisdiction must be used to provide services within that jurisdiction.

    (2) The National Board bases its determination of high-need 
jurisdictions on four factors:

    (i) Most current twelve-month national unemployment rates;

    (ii) Total number of unemployed within a civil jurisdiction;

    (iii) Total number of individuals below the poverty level within a 
civil jurisdiction; and,

    (iv) The total population of the civil jurisdiction.

    (3) In addition to unemployment, the National Board uses poverty to 
qualify a jurisdiction for receipt of an award.

    (b) Fiscal Year 1999 Formula. (1) The National Board selected 
jurisdictions under Phase XVII (PL 105-276) according to the following 
criteria:

    (i) Jurisdictions, including balance of counties, with 18,000+ 
unemployed and a 3.6% rate of unemployment.

    (ii) Jurisdictions, including balance of counties, with 400 to 
17,999 unemployed and a 5.6% rate of unemployment.

    (iii) Jurisdictions, including balance of counties, with 400 or 
more unemployed and an 11.7% rate of poverty.

    (2) Jurisdictions with a minimum of 400 unemployed may qualify for 
an award based upon their rate of unemployment or their rate of 
poverty. Once a jurisdiction's eligibility is established, the National 
Board will determine its fund distribution based on a ratio calculated 
as follows: the average number of unemployed within an eligible area 
divided by the average number of unemployed covered by the national 
program equals the area's portion of the award (less National Board 
administrative costs, and less that portion of program funds required 
to fulfill designated awards).

    (3) Puerto Rico and U.S. territories will receive a designated 
percentage of the total award based on the decision of the National 
Board.
