    General Information

    The National Weather Service operates an All Hazards Early Warning System that alerts people in areas covered by its transmissions of approaching dangerous weather and other emergencies. The National Weather Service can typically provide warnings of specific weather dangers up to fifteen minutes prior to the event. At present, this system covers all major metropolitan areas and many smaller cities and towns; however, many rural areas lack NOAA Weather Radio coverage. This new grant authority is intended to improve coverage of NOAA Weather Radio in rural areas thereby promoting public safety and awareness.

    Applications

    Applications will be accepted as discussed previously in the “Dates” section. All interested parties are strongly encouraged to contact the Rural Utilities Service, USDA to discuss their financial needs and eligibility.

    Use of Grant Funds

    Grant funds must be used to purchase and install NOAA Weather Radio transmitters and antennas that will be combined with donated tower space and other site resources to establish new rural NOAA Weather Radio transmitters.

    Maximum Size of Grants

    Generally, grants shall be limited to a maximum size of $80,000 per site. In view of the probability that larger, community-based rural organizations, such as statewide cooperative associations, may wish to arrange coverage of multiple rural areas, any one applicant may file applications to cover no more than five (5) different sites.

    Definition of Rural Area

    As used in this notice, rural area means a city, town, or unincorporated area that has a population of 50,000 inhabitants or less, other than an urbanized area immediately adjacent to a city, town, or unincorporated area that has a population in excess of 50,000 inhabitants.

    General Terms of Grant

    Except to the extent set forth in this Notice of Funds Availability, these grants will be made in accordance with 7 CFR part 3570.

    Eligible Applicants

    Applicants must be non-profit corporations or associations (including Rural Utilities Service electric and telecommunications borrower cooperatives), units of local or state government, or Federally-recognized Indian tribes.

    Grantee Responsibilities

    Grantees must execute a grant agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Rural Utilities Service.

    Grantees agree to inform the Rural Utilities Service of their progress during the installation and testing of the proposed transmitter equipment, and when the new transmitter is placed into service.

    Grant Limitations

    Grant funds may not be used to pay for facilities located in non-rural areas.

    Grant assistance will be provided on a graduated scale with sparser, lower income communities eligible for a higher proportion of grant funds to total project costs. The grantee must provide matching funds to meet the full cost of the project. Grant assistance is limited to the following percentages of eligible project costs:

    The grant may pay up to 75 percent of the total project cost when the transmitter is located in rural areas outside of a community or in a rural community of 12,000 or less, and where average per capita income for the county where the transmitter is located is less than $36,000, as determined by Per Capita Personal Income by County, Bureau of Economic Analysis, U.S. Department of Commerce, at www.bea.doc.gov/​vea/​regional/​reis/​ (“PCI”); The grant may pay up to 65 percent of the total project cost when the transmitter is located in rural areas outside of a community or in a rural community of 20,000 or less, and where average per capita income for the county where the transmitter is located is less than $38,000, as determined by PCI;

    The grant may pay up to 55 percent of the total project cost when the transmitter is located in rural areas outside of a community or in a rural community of 50,000 or less, and where average per capita income for the county where the transmitter is located is less than $40,000, as determined by PCI.

    Grant assistance may not be used to pay operating or annual recurring costs, including rentals, but these excluded costs may be included in the computation of the eligible project cost.

    Project Needs

    An area's need for a new NOAA Weather Radio transmitter is determined by its inherent risk of hazardous weather, and the absence of adequate coverage by an existing transmitter. The Rural Utilities Service, in consultation with the National Weather Service, has developed the attached list of proposed rural transmitter sites that will be eligible for funding under this notice. Completed applications that cover sites on this list and meet all other requirements discussed in this notice will be funded on a first-come, first-served basis, until all appropriated funds have been exhausted.

    A transmitter acquired under this program may be placed on a tower regardless of where the tower is located within a rural area so long as the estimated signal coverage footprint from the transmitter covers at least 60 percent of the hypothetical site area. The hypothetical site area is the area included within a circle with a 45-mile radius around a proposed rural transmitter site on the list.

    The Rural Utilities Service will update its list from time to time and will publish updates in the Federal Register.

    Matching Funding

    Under Grant Limitations, above, matching funds are required to compliment grant funds made available under this program. An applicant may meet the matching fund requirement by donating, or arranging for the donation of, facilities needed to complete the project. For example, an applicant proposing a site for a new NOAA Weather Radio transmitter may donate tower and equipment building space, or find a third-party donor of those facilities, and use the value of tower and equipment building rental calculated over the life of the transmitter to satisfy matching funds requirements. The applicant may also use the estimated cost of donated power, communications and standby power over the life of the transmitter to satisfy the matching funds requirement. The commitment of these donations must be unqualified and in writing to be considered in the calculation of matching funds.

    For such contributions to be utilized as matching funds, the applicant must estimate the value of the tower space contributed over the life of the transmitter which, for the purposes of this program, shall be assumed to be such period as the applicant selects, but not less than 15 years. The value of contributions of electrical power and telecommunications service must also be estimated using the same transmitter life.

    The Grant Application

    The completed grant application must contain: Start Printed Page 17859

    (1) A description of the new NOAA Weather Radio transmitter, its location, and projected area of coverage;

    (2) A detailed description of the community's need for the proposed system; and

    (3) A project budget, showing:

    (a) The amount of grant funds requested, and descriptions of the equipment proposed to be purchased with those funds; and

    (b) Contributions of funds, facilities, and services required to complete and sustain the project that will be applied to meet matching funds requirements as set forth in this NOFA. Matching funds requirements cannot be met by funds from a Federal source or in-kind matching facilities purchased with Federal funds.

    (4) Binding commitments from the applicant and the tower and site owners, if other than the applicant, that any offered commitments, such as tower space and electrical power, that are used to meet matching funds requirements will be provided, irrespective of changes in ownership of the facilities, without charge for the life of the transmitter as determined by the applicant pursuant to the section entitled “Matching Funding”;

    (5) A statement giving the name and population of the community and county in which the transmitter is located;

    (6) A description of any physical facilities offered to satisfy the matching fund requirements, including the tower height, age, load capacity, the elevation on the tower where space is offered, and details of equipment building space that will be made available for transmitter equipment;

    (7) A statement that the applicant, if it receives a Weather Radio grant pursuant to this NOFA, will execute a grant agreement containing technical and other standards and otherwise satisfactory to RUS.

    (8) A statement that the transmitter that will cover at least 60 percent of a hypothetical site area;

    (9) If the applicant is not the source of all matching funds or in-kind facilities offered, a list detailing each contributor and the items to be contributed, unqualified written commitments for delivery from each contributor, including the time of delivery, and the estimated value of the contribution;

    (10) A statement that other funding, such as loans, or state or local grant funding, or internally generated funding, is not available to establish a new NOAA Weather Radio transmitter; and

    (11) Such other information as may be reasonably requested by the Rural Utilities Service to clarify a particular application.

    Grant Award Criteria

    The Rural Utilities Service will process and approve, in the order received, grant applications meeting the requirements of this NOFA.
