EO 13175 Consultations and 

Coordination With Indian Tribal 

Governments 

To introduce tribes and tribal leaders 

in the Delta Region to this program 

USDA hosted a teleconference on 

December 7, 2010. USDA extended an 

invitation to Tribal Leaders of the six 

Federally recognized Tribes in 

Mississippi, Louisiana, and Alabama on 

November 30, 2010. Through this call 

USDA aimed to review, discuss, and 

open the door for consultation on this 

program, in case the tribes brought 

forward any unanticipated concerns 

regarding the draft NOFA provisions of 

the Delta Health Care Services Grant 

Program, authorized under Section 

379G of the Consolidated Farm and 

Rural Development Act. Three of the six 

tribes participated on the teleconference 

on December 7, 2010. It was explained 

that eligible grant applicants are limited 

to consortiums or groups of regional 

institutions of higher education, 

academic health and research institutes, 

and economic development entities 

located in the Delta Region that have 

experience in addressing the health care 

issues in the region. It was also 

articulated that eligible consortiums 

may include participation with Indian 

Tribes. The Tribal Leaders did not 

express any perceived negative impact 

regarding the draft, and were given 

appropriate Rural Development contact 

information should they have any future 

concerns regarding the NOFA. As a 

result of this teleconference, USDA has 

assessed the impact of this NOFA on 

Indian Tribal Governments in the Delta 

Region, and has concluded that this 

NOFA will not negatively affect the 

Federally recognized Tribes in the 

region, or impose substantial direct 

compliance costs on Indian Tribal 

Governments, nor preempt tribal law. 

Paperwork Reduction Act 

The Paperwork Reduction Act 

requires Federal Agencies to seek and 

obtain Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) approval before 

undertaking a collection of information 

directed to ten or more persons. In 

accordance with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 

Chapter 35), the agency conducted an 

analysis to determine the universe of 

respondents that could meet the 

eligibility requirements to apply for the 

Delta Health Care Services Grant 

Program. It was determined that the 

eligible number of entities in the Delta 

Region was fewer than nine and in 

accordance with 5 CFR 1320 the agency 

has not obtained OMB approval of the

VI. Application Review Information 

A. Criteria 

1. Grant applications are scored 

competitively and subject to the criteria 

listed below. 

2. Grant application scoring criteria 

are detailed in the Delta Health Care 

Services Grant Application Guide. 

There are 100 points available, broken 

down as follows: 

a. The Rurality of the Project area and 

communities served. (up to 40 points); 

b. The Community Needs and 

Benefits Derived from the project. (up to 

45 points); and 

c. The Project Management and 

Organization capability. (up to 15 

points). 

B. Grant Review Standards 

1. All applications for grants must be 

delivered to RUS at the address 

specified in this notice, or submitted 

electronically to http://www.grants.gov/ 

(Grants.gov) to be eligible for funding. 

RUS will review each application for 

conformance with the provisions of this 

part. RUS may contact the applicant for 

additional information or clarification. 

2. Applications conforming with this 

part will be evaluated competitively by 

RUS employees, and will be awarded 

points as described in the Delta Health 

Care Services Grant Application Guide. 

Applications will be ranked and grants 

awarded in rank order until all grant 

funds are expended. 

3. Regardless of the score an 

application receives, if RUS determines 

that the Project is technically or 

financially infeasible, the Agency will 

notify the applicant, in writing, and the 

application will be returned and will 

not be considered for funding. 

C. Scoring Guidelines 

1. The applicant’s self scores in 

Rurality will be checked and, if 

necessary, corrected by RUS. 

2. The Community Needs and 

Benefits derived from the project score 

will be determined by RUS based on 

information presented in the 

application. The Community Needs and 

Benefits score is a subjective score based 

on the reviewer’s assessment of the 

supporting arguments made in the 

application. The score aims to assess 

how the project’s purpose and goals 

benefit the residents in the Delta Region. 

3. The Project Management and 

Organization Capability score will be 

determined by RUS based on 

information presented in the 

application. RUS will evaluate the 

applicant’s experience, past 

performance, and accomplishments 

addressing health care issues to ensure 

effective project implementation. 

D. Selection Process 

Grant applications are ranked by final 

score. RUS selects applications based on 

those rankings, subject to availability of 

funds. Rural Development has the 

authority to limit the number of 

applications selected in any one state, or 

from any applicant. 

VII. Award Administration Information 

A. Award Notices 

RUS recognizes that each funded 

project is unique, and therefore may 

attach conditions to different projects’ 

award documents. The Agency 

generally notifies applicants whose 

projects are selected for awards by 

faxing an award letter. The Agency 

follows the award letter with a grant 

agreement that contains all the terms 

and conditions for the grant. An 

applicant must execute and return the 

grant agreement, accompanied by any 

additional items required by the grant 

agreement. 

B. Administrative and National Policy 

Requirements 

The items listed in Section V of this 

notice and the Delta Health Care 

Services Grant Application Guide and 

accompanying materials implement the 

appropriate administrative and national 

policy requirements. 

C. Performance Reporting 

All recipients of Delta Health Care 

Services Grant Program financial 

assistance must provide annual 

performance activity reports to RUS 

until the project is complete and the 

funds are expended. A final 

performance report is also required; the 

final report may serve as the last annual 

report. The final report must include an 

evaluation of the success of the project. 

D. Recipient and Subrecipient Reporting 

The applicant must have the 

necessary processes and systems in 

place to comply with the reporting 

requirements for first-tier sub-awards
