406 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 2 / Friday, January 3, 1997 / Notices

For applicants from States that are

currently not participating in the

development of EnPAs, in order to be

eligible for PPIS grant funds, the

applicant must still clearly identify a

partnership with one or more business

or environmental assistance provider in

the State.

In addition, in 1995 and 1996 the

National Institute for Standards and

Technology (NIST) funded 27 State

environmental planning networks. The

purpose of the planning effort is to

coordinate activities among NIST

Manufacturing Extension Partnerships,

pollution prevention programs,

compliance centers, and other

environmental service delivery

organizations in the State. PPIS

applications from States that have

received funding from NIST for

environmental services planning must

address how the grant will relate to the

NIST-funded environmental planning

efforts.

PPIS applications from States that

have not been awarded a NIST

environmental services planning grant

are not required to address this

criterion.

Based on the above, EPA has

developed the following criteria that

must be addressed by all eligible

applicants. Proposals that do not

address these criteria will not be

considered eligible for funding. In the

narrative of the grant application, the

following three requirements must be

addressed:

(1) Identify who the partnering

organization(s) is/are and demonstrate

or document the relationship. This can

be done, for example, through a letter of

agreement, a joint statement, or

principles of agreement signed by both

parties.

(2) Describe how the activities in the

grant will support the State’s EnPA

under NEPPS, where present.

(3) Address how the grant will relate

to the NIST-funded environmental

coordination planning efforts. (This

criterion only applies to those States

that have a NIST-funded grant.)

Applicants should consult the PPIS

program guidance for more detailed

information on the 1997 goals and

criteria. Proposals accepted for review

under this program must qualify as

pollution prevention as defined by EPA.

3. Program management. Awards for

FY 1997 funds will be managed through

the EPA Regional Offices.

4. Contacts. Interested applicants are

requested to contact the appropriate

EPA Regional Pollution Prevention

Coordinator listed under Unit VI. of this

document to obtain specific instructions

and guidance for submitting proposals.
