Executive Order (E.O.) 13175 

Consultation and Coordination With 

Indian Tribal Governments 

This Executive Order imposes 

requirements on Rural Development in 

the development of regulatory policies 

that have tribal implications or preempt 

tribal laws. Rural Development has 

determined that this Notice does not 

have a substantial direct effect on one or 

more Indian tribe(s) or on either the 

relationship or the distribution of 

powers and responsibilities between the 

Federal Government and the Indian 

tribes. Thus, this Notice is not subject to 

the requirements of Executive Order 

13175. Tribal Consultation inquiries and 

comments should be directed to RD’s 

Native American Coordinator at aian@

wdc.usda.gov or (720) 544–2911. 

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 number of 

applications the Agency estimates that it 

will receive under the DHCS grant 

program. It was determined that the 

estimated number of applications was 

fewer than nine and in accordance with 

5 CFR 1320, thus no OMB approval is 

necessary at this time. 

A. Program Description 

The DHCS program is authorized by 

Section 379G of the Consolidated Farm 

and Rural Development Act (7 U.S.C. 

2008u), as amended by the Agricultural 

Act of 2014 (Pub. L. 113–79). The 

primary objective of the program is to 

provide financial assistance to address 

the continued unmet health needs in the 

Delta Region through cooperation 

among health care professionals, 

institutions of higher education, 

research institutions, and other 

individuals and entities in the Delta 

Region. Grants are awarded on a

pharmacy, public health), and one or 

more owned or affiliated teaching 

hospitals or health systems; or a health 

care nonprofit organization or health 

system, including nonprofit medical 

and surgical hospitals, that conduct 

health related research exclusively for 

scientific or educational purposes. 

Conflict of Interest—A situation in

of interest, including, but not limited to, 

owner(s) and their immediate family 

members. An example of conflict of 

interest occurs when the consortium 

member’s employees, board of directors, 

or the immediate family of either, have 

the appearance of a professional or 

personal financial interest in the

C. Eligibility Information 

Applicants must meet all of the 

following eligibility requirements. Your 

application will not be considered for 

funding if it does not provide sufficient 

information to determine eligibility or is 

missing required elements. Applicants 

that fail to submit the required elements 

by the application deadline will be 

deemed ineligible and will not be 

evaluated further. Information 

submitted after the application deadline 

will not be accepted. 

1. Eligible Applicants 

Grants funded through DHCS may be 

made to a Consortium as defined in 

Paragraph A of this Notice. Consortiums 

are eligible to receive funding through 

this Notice. One member of the 

Consortium must be designated as the 

lead entity by the other members of the 

Consortium and have legal authority to 

contract with the Federal Government. 

The lead entity is the recipient (see 2 

CFR 200.86) of the DHCS grant funds 

and accountable for monitoring and 

reporting on the Project performance 

and financial management of the grant. 

In addition, the lead entity (recipient) is 

responsible for subrecipient monitoring 

and management in accordance with 2 

CFR 200.330 and 200.331, respectively. 

The remaining consortium members are 

subrecipients (see 2 CFR 200.93). They 

may receive subawards (see 2 CFR 

200.94) from the recipient and are 

responsible for monitoring and 

reporting the Project performance and 

financial management of their subaward 

to the recipient. 

(a) An applicant is ineligible if they 

do not submit ‘‘Evidence of Eligibility’’ 

and ‘‘Consortium Agreements’’ as 

described in Section D.2. of this Notice. 

(b) An applicant is ineligible if they 

have been debarred or suspended or 

otherwise excluded from or ineligible 

for participation in Federal assistance 

programs under Executive Order 12549, 

‘‘Debarment and Suspension.’’ The 

Agency will check the System for 

Award Management (SAM) to determine 

if the applicant has been debarred or 


sradovich on DSK3GMQ082PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 168 / Wednesday, August 29, 2018 / Notices 44017 

suspended. In addition, an applicant 

will be considered ineligible for a grant 

due to an outstanding judgment 

obtained by the U.S. in a Federal Court 

(other than U.S. Tax Court), is 

delinquent on the payment of Federal 

income taxes, or is delinquent on 

Federal debt. The applicant must certify 

as part of the application that they do 

not have an outstanding judgment 

against them. The Agency will check the 

Credit Alert Interactive Voice Response 

System (CAIVRS) to verify this. 

(c) Any corporation (1) that has been 

convicted of a felony criminal violation 

under any Federal law within the past 

24 months or (2) that has any unpaid 

Federal tax liability that has been 

assessed, for which all judicial and 

administrative remedies have been 

exhausted or have lapsed, and that is 

not being paid in a timely manner 

pursuant to an agreement with the 

authority responsible for collecting the 

tax liability, is not eligible for financial 

assistance provided with funds 

appropriated by the Consolidated 

Appropriations Act, 2018 (Pub. L. 115– 

141), unless a Federal agency has 

considered suspension or debarment of 

the corporation and has made a 

determination that this further action is 

not necessary to protect the interests of 

the Government. 

(d) Applications will be deemed 

ineligible if the application includes any 

funding restrictions identified under 

Section D.6. 

(e) Applications will be deemed 

ineligible if the application is not 

complete in accordance with the 

requirements stated in Section C.3.g. 

2. Cost Sharing or Matching 

Matching funds are not required. 

However, if you are adding any other 

contributions to the proposed Project, 

you must provide documentation 

indicating who will be providing the 

matching funds, the amount of funds, 

when those funds will be provided, and 

how the funds will be used in the 

Project budget. Examples of acceptable 

documentation include: A signed letter 

from the source of funds stating the 

amount of funds, when the funds will 

be provided, and what the funds can be 

used for or a signed resolution from 

your governing board authorizing the 

use of a specified amount of funds for 

specific components of the Project. The 

matching funds you identify must be for 

eligible purposes and included in your 

work plan and budget. Additionally, 

expected program income may not be 

used as matching funds at the time you 

submit your application. However, if 

you have a contract to provide services 

in place at the time you submit your 

application, you can verify the amount 

of the contract as matching funds. If you 

choose, you may use a template to 

summarize the matching funds. The 

template is available either from your 

State Office or the program website at: 

http://www.rd.usda.gov/programsservices/delta-health-care-servicesgrants. 

3. Other Eligibility Requirements 

(a) Use of Funds. Your application 

must propose to use Project Funds for 

eligible purposes. Eligible Project 

purposes include the development of: 

• Health care services; 

• health education programs; 

• health care job training programs; 

and 

• the development and expansion of 

public health-related facilities in the 

Delta Region. 

(b) Project Eligibility. The proposed 

Project must take place within the Delta 

Region as defined in this Notice. 

However, the applicant need not 

propose to serve the entire Delta Region. 

(c) Project Input. Your proposed 

Project must be developed based on 

input from local governments, public 

health care providers, and other entities 

in the Delta Region. 

(d) Grant Period Eligibility. All awards 

are limited to up to a 24 month grant 

period based upon the complexity of the 

Project. Your proposed grant period 

should begin no earlier than February 1, 

2019, and should end no later than 24 

months following that date. If you 

receive an award, your grant period will 

be revised to begin on the actual date of 

award—the date the grant agreement is 

executed by the Agency—and your grant 

period end date will be adjusted 

accordingly. Your Project activities must 

begin within 90 days of the date of 

award. If you request funds for a time 

period beginning before February 1, 

2019, and/or ending later than 24 

months from that date, your application 

will be ineligible. The length of your 

grant period should be based on your 

Project’s complexity, as indicated in 

your application work plan. 

(e) Multiple Application Eligibility. 

The Consortium, including its members, 

is limited to submitting one application 

for funding under this Notice. We will 

not accept applications from 

Consortiums that include members who 

are also members of other Consortiums 

that have submitted applications for 

funding under this Notice. If we 

discover that a Consortium member is a 

member of multiple Consortiums with 

applications submitted for funding 

under this Notice, all applications will 

be considered ineligible for funding. 

(f) Satisfactory Performance 

Eligibility. If you have an existing DHCS 

award, you must be performing 

satisfactorily to be considered eligible 

for a new DHCS award. Satisfactory 

performance includes being up-to-date 

on all financial and performance reports 

as prescribed in the grant award, and 

current on tasks and timeframes for 

utilizing grant and matching funds as 

approved in the work plan and budget. 

If you have any unspent grant funds on 

DHCS awards prior to FY 2016, your 

application will not be considered for 

funding. If your FY 2016 and/or 2017 

award has unspent funds of 50 percent 

or more than what your approved work 

plan and budget projected at the time 

your FY 2018 application is evaluated, 

your application may not be considered 

for funding. The Agency will verify the 

performance status of FY 2016 and 2017 

awards and make a determination after 

the FY 2018 application period closes. 

(g) Completeness Eligibility. Your 

application must provide all of the 

information requested in Section D.2. of 

this Notice. Applications lacking 

sufficient information to determine 

eligibility and scoring will be deemed 

ineligible and will not be considered for 

scoring. 

(h) Indirect Costs. Your negotiated 

indirect cost rate approval does not 

need to be included in your application, 

but you will be required to provide it if 

a grant is awarded. Approval for 

indirect costs that are requested in an 

application without an approved 

indirect cost rate agreement is at the 

discretion of the Agency.

Islands, Puerto Rico, or the U.S. Virgin 

Islands. Corporations include both for 

profit and non-profit entities. 

(g) Executive Summary. You must

the Project, tasks to be completed, and 

other relevant information that provides 

a general overview of the Project. 

(h) Evidence of Eligibility. You must 

provide evidence of the Consortium’s 

eligibility to apply under this Notice. 

This section must include a detailed 

summary demonstrating how each 

Consortium member meets the 

definition of an eligible entity as 

defined under Definitions of this Notice. 

(i) Consortium Agreements. The

Under the agreement, each Consortium 

member must perform a substantive role 

in the Project and not merely serve as 

a conduit of funds to another party or

by an authorized representative of the 

lead entity and an authorized 

representative of each partnering 

consortium entity. 

(j) Scoring Criteria. Each of the 

scoring criteria in this Notice must be 

addressed in narrative form. Failure to 

address each scoring criterion will 

result in the application being 

determined ineligible. 

(k) Performance Measures. The 

Agency has also established annual 

performance measures to evaluate the 

DHCS program. You must provide 

estimates on the following performance 

measures as part of your application: 

• Number of businesses assisted; 

• Number of jobs created; 

• Number of jobs saved; 

• Number of individuals assisted/ 

trained. 

It is permissible to have a zero in a 

performance element. When you 

calculate jobs created, estimates should 

be based upon actual jobs to be created 

by your organization as a result of the 

DHCS funding or actual jobs to be 

created by businesses as a result of 

assistance from your organization. 

When you calculate jobs saved, 

estimates should be based only on 

actual jobs that would have been lost if 

your organization did not receive DHCS 

funding or actual jobs that would have 

been lost without assistance from your 

organization. 

You can also suggest additional 

performance elements for example 

where job creation or jobs saved may 

not be a relevant indicator. These 

additional elements should be specific, 

measurable performance elements that 

could be included in an award 

document. 

(l) Financial Information and 

Sustainability. You must provide 

current financial statements and a 

narrative description demonstrating 

sustainability of the Project, all of which 

show sufficient resources and expertise 

to undertake and complete the Project 

and how the Project will be sustained 

following completion. Applicants must 

provide 3 years of pro-forma financial 

statements for the Project. 

(m) Evidence of Legal Authority and 

Existence. The lead entity must provide 

evidence of its legal existence and 

authority to enter into a grant agreement 

with the Agency and perform the 

activities proposed under the grant 

application. 

(n) Service Area Maps. You must 

provide maps with sufficient detail to 

show the area that will benefit from the 

proposed facilities and services and the 

location of the facilities improved or

outstanding Federal judgment. You 

must certify that there are no current 

outstanding Federal judgments against 

your property and that you will not use 

grant funds to pay for any judgment 

obtained by the United States. You must 

also certify that you are not delinquent 

on the payment of Federal income taxes, 

or any Federal debt. To satisfy the 

Certification requirement, you should 

include this statement in your 

application: ‘‘[INSERT NAME OF 

APPLICANT] certifies that the United 

States has not obtained an unsatisfied 

judgment against its property, is not 

delinquent on the payment of Federal 

income taxes, or any Federal debt, and

5. Intergovernmental Review 

Executive Order (E.O.) 12372, 

Intergovernmental Review of Federal 

Programs, applies to this program. This 

E.O. requires that Federal agencies 

provide opportunities for consultation 

on proposed assistance with State and 

local governments. Many States have 

established a Single Point of Contact 

(SPOC) to facilitate this consultation. 

For a list of States that maintain a SPOC, 

please see the White House website: 

https://www.whitehouse.gov/wpcontent/uploads/2017/11/SPOC-Feb.- 

2018.pdf. If your State has a SPOC, you 

may submit your application directly for 

review. Any comments obtained 

through the SPOC must be provided to 

your State Office for consideration as 

part of your application. If your State 

has not established a SPOC or you do 

not want to submit your application to 

the SPOC, your State Office will submit 

your application to the SPOC or other 

appropriate agency or agencies. 

You are also encouraged to contact 

Cooperative Programs at 202–690–1374 

or cpgrants@wdc.usda.gov if you have 

questions about this process. 

6. Funding Restrictions 

Project Funds may not be used for 

ineligible purposes. In addition, you 

may not use Project Funds for the 

following: 

(a) To duplicate current services or to 

replace or to substitute support 

previously provided. However, Project 

Funds may be used to expand the level 

of effort or a service beyond what is 

currently being provided; 

(b) To pay for costs to prepare the 

application for funding under this 

Notice; 

(c) To pay for costs of the Project 

incurred prior to the effective date of the 

period of performance; 

(d) To pay expenses for applicant 

employee training not directly related to 

the Project; 

(e) Fund political activities; 

(f) To pay for assistance to any private 

business enterprise which does not have 

at least 51 percent ownership by those 

who are either citizens of the United 

States or reside in the United States 

after being legally admitted for 

permanent residence; 

(g) To pay any judgment or debt owed 

to the United States; 

(h) Engage in any activities that are 

considered a Conflict of Interest, as 

defined by this Notice; or

In addition, your application will not 

be considered for funding if it does any 

of the following: 

i. Requests more than the maximum 

grant amount; or 

ii. Proposes ineligible costs that equal 

more than 10 percent of the Project 

Funds. 

We will consider your application for 

funding if it includes ineligible costs of 

10 percent or less of total Project Funds, 

if it is determined eligible otherwise. 

However, if your application is 

successful, those ineligible costs must 

be removed and replaced with eligible 

costs before the Agency will make the 

grant award or the amount of the grant 

award will be reduced accordingly. If 

we cannot determine the percentage of 

ineligible costs, your application will 

not be considered for funding.

(a) You should not submit your 

application in more than one format. 

You must choose whether to submit 

your application in hard copy or

(b) National Environmental Policy 

Act. This Notice has been reviewed in 

accordance with 7 CFR part 1970, 

‘‘Environmental Policies and 

Procedures.’’ We have determined that 

an Environmental Impact Statement is 

not required because the issuance of 

regulations and instructions, as well as 

amendments to them, describing 

administrative and financial procedures 

for processing, approving, and 

implementing the Agency’s financial 

programs is categorically excluded in 

the Agency’s National Environmental 

Policy Act regulation found at 7 CFR 

1970.53(f), ‘‘Environmental Policies and 

Procedures.’’ We have determined that 

this Notice does not constitute a major 

Federal action significantly affecting the 

quality of the human environment. 

The Agency will review each grant 

application to determine its compliance 

with 7 CFR part 1970. The applicant 

may be asked to provide additional 

information or documentation to assist 

the Agency with this determination. 

(c) Civil Rights Compliance 

Requirements. All grants made under 

this Notice are subject to Title VI of the 

Civil Rights Act of 1964 as required by 

the USDA (7 CFR part 15, subpart A) 

and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation 

Act of 1973. 

E. Application Review Information 

The State Offices will review 

applications to determine if they are 

eligible for assistance based on 

requirements in this Notice, and other 

applicable Federal regulations. If 

determined eligible, your application 

will be scored by a panel of USDA 

employees in accordance with the point 

allocation specified in this Notice. 

Applications will be funded in rank 

order until the funding limitation has 

been reached. Applications that cannot 

be fully funded may be offered partial 

funding at the Agency’s discretion. 

1. Scoring Criteria 

All eligible and complete applications 

will be evaluated based on the following 

criteria. Evaluators will base scores only 

on the information provided or crossreferenced by page number in each 

individual scoring criterion. DHCS is a 

competitive program, so you will 

receive scores based on the quality of 

your responses. Simply addressing the 

criteria will not guarantee higher scores. 

The total points possible for the criteria 

are 110. The minimum score 

requirement for funding is 60 points. It 

is at the Agency’s discretion to fund 

applications with a score of 59 points or 

less if it is in the best interest of the 

Federal Government. 

(a) Community Needs and Benefits 

derived from the Project (maximum of 

30 points). A panel of USDA employees 

will assess how the Project will benefit 

the residents in the Delta Region. This 

criterion will be scored based on the 

documentation in support of the 

community needs for health services 

and public health-related facilities and 

the benefits to people living in the Delta 

Region derived from the 

implementation of the proposed Project. 

It should lead clearly to the 

identification of the Project participant 

pool and the target population for the 

Project and provide convincing links 

between the Project and the benefits to 

the community to address its health 

needs. The Agency will consider: 

(1) The extent of the applicant’s 

documentation explaining the health 

care needs, issues, and challenges facing 

the service area. Include what problems 

the residents face and how the Project 

will benefit the residents in the region. 

(2) The extent to which the applicant 

is able to show the relationship between 

the Project’s design, outcome, and 

benefits. 

(3) The extent to which the applicant 

explains the Project and its 

implementation and provides 

milestones which are well-defined and 

can be realistically completed. 

(4) The extent to which the applicant 

clearly outlines a plan to track, report, 

and evaluate performance outcomes. 

Applicants should attempt to quantify 

benefits in terms of outcomes from the 

Project; that is, ways in which peoples’ 

lives, or the community, will be 

improved. Provide estimates of the 

number of people affected by the 

benefits arising from the Project. 

(b) The Project Management and 

Organization Capability (maximum of 

30 points). A panel of USDA employees 

will evaluate the Consortium’s 

experience, past performance, and 

accomplishments addressing health care 

issues to ensure effective Project 

implementation. This criterion will be 

scored based on the documentation of 

the Project’s management and 

organizational capability. The Agency 

will consider: 

(1) The degree to which the 

organization has a sound management 

and fiscal structure including: Welldefined roles for administrators, staff, 

and established financial management 

systems. 

(2) The extent to which the applicant 

identifies and demonstrates that 

qualifications, capabilities, and 

educational background of the 

identified key personnel (at a minimum 

the Project Manager) who will manage 

and implement programs are relevant 

and will contribute to the success of the 

Project. 

(3) The extent to which the applicant 

demonstrates current successful and 

effective experience (or demonstrated 

experience within the past 5 years) 

addressing the health care issues in the 

Delta Region. 

(4) The extent to which the applicant 

has experience managing grant-funded 

programs. 

(5) The extent to which 

administrative/management costs are 

balanced with funds designated for the 

provision of programs and services. 

(6) The extent and diversity of eligible 

entity types within the applicant’s 

Consortium of regional institutions of 

higher education, academic health and 

research institutes, and economic 

development entities located in the 

Delta Region. 

(c) Work Plan and Budget (maximum 

of 30 points). You must provide a work 

plan and budget that includes the 

following: (1) The specific activities, 

such as programs, services, trainings, 

and/or construction-related activities for 

a facility to be performed under the 

Project; (2) the estimated line item costs 

associated with each activity, including 

grant funds and other necessary sources 

of funds; (3) the key personnel who will 

carry out each activity (including each 

Consortium member’s role); and (4) the 

specific time frames for completion of 

each activity. 

An eligible start and end date for the 

Project and for individual Project tasks 

must be clearly shown and may not 

exceed Agency specified timeframes for 

the grant period. You must show the 

source and use of both grant and other 

contributions for all tasks. Other 

contributions must be spent at a rate 

equal to, or in advance of, grant funds. 

A panel of USDA employees will 

evaluate your work plan for detailed 

actions and an accompanying timetable 

for implementing the proposal. Clear 

and comprehensive work plans 

detailing all project goals, tasks, 

timelines, costs, and responsible 

personnel in a logical and realistic 

manner will result in a higher score. 

(d) Local Support (maximum 10 

points). A panel of USDA employees 

will evaluate your application for local 

support of the proposed Project. The 

application must include 

documentation detailing support 

solicited from local government, public 

health care providers, and other entities 

in the Delta Region. Evidence of support 

can include; but is not limited to 

surveys conducted amongst Delta 

Region residents and stakeholders, notes

from focus groups, or letters of support 

from local entities. 

(e) Administrator Discretionary Points 

(maximum of 10 points). The 

Administrator may choose to award: 

i. Up to 5 points for projects with a 

primary purpose of providing treatment 

and counseling services for opioid 

abuse. Applicants who want to be 

considered for discretionary points must 

discuss how their workplan and budget 

addresses opioid misuse in the Delta 

Region; and 

ii. up to 5 points for projects that seek 

to help rural communities build robust 

and sustainable economies through 

strategic investment in infrastructure, 

partnerships and innovation. Eligible 

applicants who want to be considered 

for discretionary points must discuss 

how their workplan and budget 

supports one or more of the five 

following key strategies: 

• Achieving e-Connectivity for Rural 

America; 

• Improving Quality of Life;

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Office 

of Management and Budget’s (OMB) 

regulation (5 CFR 1320) implementing 

provisions of the Paperwork Reduction 

Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–13) requires 

that interested members of the public 

and affected agencies have an 

opportunity to comment on information 

collection and recordkeeping activities 

(see 5 CFR 1320.8(d)). This notice 

identifies an information collection that 

RUS is submitting to OMB for 

extension. 

Comments are invited on: (a) Whether 

the collection of information is 

necessary for the proper performance of 

the functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the

Title: 7 CFR part 1717, subpart Y, 

Settlement of Debt Owed by Electric 

Borrowers. 

OMB Control Number: 0572–0116. 

Type of Request: Extension of a 

currently approved information 

collection package. 

Abstract: The Rural Utilities Service 

makes mortgage loans and loan 

guarantees to electric systems to provide 

and improve electric service in rural 

areas pursuant to the Rural 

Electrification Act of 1936, as amended 

(7 U.S.C. 901 et seq.)(RE Act). This 

information collection requirement 

stems from passage of Public Law 104– 

127, on April 4, 1996, which amended 

section 331(b) of the Consolidated Farm 

and Rural Development Act (7 U.S.C. 

1921 et seq.) to extend to RUS the 

Secretary of Agriculture’s authority to 

settle debts with respect to loans made 

or guaranteed by RUS. Only those 

electric borrowers that are unable to 

fully repay their debts to the 

Government and who apply to RUS for 

relief will be affected by this 

information collection. The collection 

will require only that information which 

is essential for determining: The need 

for debt settlement; the amount of relief 

that is needed; the amount of debt that 

can be repaid; the scheduling of debt 

repayment; and, the range of 

opportunities for enhancing the amount 

of debt that can be recovered. The 

information to be collected will be 

similar to that which any prudent 

lender would require to determine 

whether debt settlement is required and 

the amount of relief that is needed. 

Since the need for relief is expected to 

vary substantially from case to case, so 

will the required information collection. 

Estimate of Burden: Public reporting 

for this collection of information is 

estimated to average 1,000 hours per 

response. 

Respondents: Not-for-profit 

institutions and other businesses. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 1. 

Estimated Number of Responses per 

Respondent: 1. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden on 

Respondents: 1,000 hours. 

Copies of this information collection 

can be obtained from Thomas P. 

Dickson, Program Development and 

Regulatory Analysis at (202) 690–4492. 

All responses to this notice will be 

summarized and included in the request 

for OMB approval. All comments will 

also become a matter of public record.
