graduate degrees in a community

development academic program, (b) an

Area-wide Planning Organization (APO)

applying on behalf of two or more

eligible institutions of higher education

located in the same SMSA or non-SMSA

570.415, institutions of higher education

are permitted to choose whether to

apply independently or through an

APO); or (c) a State applying on behalf

of two or more eligible institutions of

higher education located in the State. If

a State is approved for funding,

institutions of higher education located

in the State are not eligible recipients.

Karadbil at the above listed telephone

number if you have any questions about

eligibility of a proposed degree program.

(C) Affirmatively Furthering Fair

Housing

You are not required to respond to

HUD’s affirmatively furthering fair

housing requirements.

V. Application Selection Process

(A) Two Types of Reviews

Two types of reviews will be

conducted—a threshold review to

determine applicant eligibility and a

rating based on the selection criteria for

all applications that pass the threshold

review.

(B) Threshold Criteria for Funding

Consideration

(1) General threshold requirements.

You must meet the following threshold

requirement before an application can

be evaluated, rated, and ranked:

(a) Eligibility. You must be eligible to

apply for the program.

(b) Compliance with

nondiscrimination requirements. You

must comply with all Fair Housing Act

and civil rights laws, statutes,

regulations, and executive orders as

enumerated in 24 CFR 5.105(a). If you:

(i) Have been charged with a systemic

violation of the Fair Housing Act by the

Secretary alleging ongoing

discrimination; (ii) are a defendant in a

Fair Housing Act lawsuit filed by the

Department of Justice alleging an

ongoing pattern or practice of

discrimination; or (iii) have received a

letter of noncompliance findings under

Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, Section

504 of the Rehabilitation Act, or section

109 of the Housing and Community

Development Act, you are not eligible to

apply for funding under this NOFA

until you have resolved such charge,

lawsuit, or letter of findings to the

satisfaction of the Department.

(c) Number of students to be assisted.

You may request funding for as many as

five students, and in no case, for no less

than three students, since work plan

and other facets of the evaluation are

assessed in the context of the number of

students for whom funding is requested.

If your application requests fewer than

three or more than five students per

institution, it will be disqualified.

(d) Eligibility of the applicant and its

proposed academic degree program.

You must demonstrate that you are

eligible to participate in the program, by

demonstrating that you are either an

institution of higher education that

offers graduate degrees in at least one

eligible community building academic

program or you are an APO or State

submitting an application on behalf of

such institutions. Your application must

also demonstrate that each institution

participating in your program has the

faculty to carry out its activities under

your program. Each work placement

agency must be involved in community

building and must be an agency of a

State or unit of local government, an

area-wide planning organization, an

Indian tribe, or a private nonprofit

organization.

(e) Graduation rates. If you were

funded during the FY 1998 round, you

must maintain at least a 50 percent rate

of graduation of students from this

round, which covered school years

August 1998 to August 2000, in order to

be eligible to participate in the current

round of CDWSP funding. If you were

funded under the FY 1998 CDWSP

funding round and did not maintain

such a rate, you will be excluded from

participating in the FY 2001 funding

round.

(C) Factors for Award Used To Evaluate

and Rate Applications

To review and rate applications, the

Department may establish panels

including persons not currently

employed by HUD to obtain certain

expertise and outside points of view,

including views from other Federal

agencies. You will be evaluated

competitively and ranked against all

other applicants that have applied for

the same funding program.

(D) General Factors for Award Used To

Evaluate and Rank Applications

The factors for rating and ranking

your application, and maximum points

for each factor, are provided below. The

maximum number of points for each

program is 100. The rating of your

organization and staff, unless otherwise

specified, will include any subcontractors, consultants, sub-recipients,

and members of consortia that are firmly

committed to your project, to the extent

of their participation.

(1) Quality of the Academic Program

(30 points if you have never received a

CDWSP grant) (25 points if you have

previously received a CDWSP grant).

HUD will evaluate the quality of the

academic program you offer (or in the

case of an application from an APO or

State, those offered by the institutions

included in your application) including,

without limitation, the:

(i) Quality of your course offerings in

terms of their depth, sophistication,

quality, and emphasis on applied

coursework;

(ii) Appropriateness of your course

offerings for preparing students for

careers in community building; and

(iii) Qualifications of your faculty and

percentage of their time devoted to

teaching and research in community

building.

(2) Quality of the Work Placement

Assignments (15 points).

HUD will evaluate the extent to which

participating students will receive a

sufficient number and variety of work

placement assignments, the assignments

will provide practical and useful

experience to students participating in

your program, and the assignments will

further the participating students’

preparation for professional careers in

community building. In applying this

factor, HUD will consider the quality in

terms of relevance to community

building and variety of work placement

agencies and the quality and variety of

projects/experiences at each agency and

overall. You must have a plan for

rotating students among work

placement agencies. In order to receive

full points on this factor, you must

propose at least three different work

placement experiences (typically, one

each school year and one during the

summer between the two school years.)

Students engaging in community

building projects through an institution

of higher education (rather than through

local work placement sites) may do so

only through a community outreach

center, which will in that instance be

considered a work placement agency

even if the community building projects

are undertaken with or through a

separate organization or entity.

Accordingly, students engaging in

community building through an

institution of higher education’s

outreach center should do so during

only part of their academic program and

should rotate to other work placement

agency responsibilities identified in the

CDWSP regulations. Full points will be

awarded to institutions that have

included executed agreements with

their proposed work study sites, rather

than just listing these sites.

(3) Effectiveness of Program

Administration (18 points).

HUD will evaluate the degree to

which you will be able to coordinate

and administer your program. HUD will

71230 Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 230 / Wednesday, November 29, 2000 / Notices

allocate the maximum points available

under this criterion equally among the

following three considerations, except

that the maximum points available

under this criterion will be allocated

equally only between (i) and (ii), where

you have not previously administered a

CDWSP-funded program. If you

received a CDWSP grant in FY 1997 or

before and have not received one since

then, you are considered a new

applicant, for purposes of this factor.

(i) The strength and clarity of your

plan for placing CDWSP students on

rotating work placement assignments

and for monitoring CDWSP students’

progress both academically and in their

work placement assignments;

(ii) The degree to which the

individual who will coordinate and

administer your program has clear

responsibility, ample available time,

and sufficient authority to do so;

(iii) The effectiveness of your prior

coordination and administration of a

CDWSP-funded program, where

applicable (including the timeliness and

completeness of your compliance with

CDWSP reporting requirements). In

addressing the timeliness of reports, you

should review your prior CDWSP grant

agreements and reports and compare

when reports were due with when the

reports actually were submitted. A chart

of your report submissions for each

grant by submission time should be

included. You should also describe your

timeliness in drawing down grant funds.

(4) Demonstrated Commitment of the

Applicant to Meeting the Needs of

Economically Disadvantaged and

Minority Students (10 points).

HUD will evaluate your commitment

to meeting the needs of economically

disadvantaged and minority students as

demonstrated by your policies and

plans, and past efforts and successes in,

recruiting, enrolling and financially

assisting economically disadvantaged

and minority students, including the

provision of reasonable

accommodations for students with

disabilities. If you are an APO or State,

HUD will consider the demonstrated

commitment of each institution of

higher education on whose behalf you

are applying; HUD will also consider

your demonstrated commitment to

recruit and hire economically

disadvantaged and minority students.

(5) Rates of Graduation (7 points).

HUD will evaluate the rates of

students previously enrolled in a

community building academic degree

program, specifically (where applicable)

graduation rates from any previously

funded CDWSP academic programs or

similar programs. This factor measures

the rate of graduation for all applicable

years and awards points based on the

extent to which the applicant exceeds a

50% graduation rate each applicable

year.

(6) Extent of Financial Commitment

(10 points).

HUD will evaluate your commitment

and ability to assure that CDWSP

students will receive sufficient financial

assistance above and beyond the

CDWSP funding to complete their

academic program in a timely manner

and without working in excess of 20

hours a week during the school year.

When addressing this issue, you should,

among other responsive information,

delineate the full costs budgeted

annually for a student (including living

expenses, fees, etc), explain the basis for

your budget and explain how the

financial assistance package you will

offer to each CDWSP student will meet

that budget. You should have an

adequate means of addressing

reasonable variations in budget needs

among students and for addressing

emergency financial needs of students.

(7) Likelihood of Fostering Students’

Permanent Employment in Community

Building (10 points if you have never

received a CDWSP grant) (15 points if

you have previously received a CDWSP

grant).

HUD will evaluate the extent to which

your proposed program will lead

participating students directly and

immediately to permanent employment

in community building, as indicated by:

(i) Your past success in placing your

graduates (particularly CDWSP-funded

and similar program graduates, where

applicable) in permanent employment

in community building; and

(ii) The amount of faculty/staff time

and resources you devote to assisting

students (particularly students in

CDWSP-funded and similar programs,

where applicable) in finding permanent

employment in community building.

VI. Application Submission

Requirements

(A) Content of Application

Your application should include an

original and two copies of the items

listed below. In order to be able to

recycle paper, you should not submit

applications in bound form; binder clips

or loose leaf binders are acceptable.

Also, please do not use colored paper.

(1) Transmittal Letter, which must be

signed by your Chief Executive Officer,

or his or her designee. If a designee

signs, your application must contain a

copy of the official delegation of

signatory authority. The letter must

contain an assurance that you were not

awarded a CDWSP grant in Fiscal Year

1998 (which was to cover the school

years August 1998 to August 2000) or

were awarded a Fiscal Year 1998 grant

and had a 50 percent or higher rate of

graduation of CDWSP students funded

through the grant.

(2) Designation of your degree

program(s) under which students will

be educated.

(3) Executive Summary.

(4) Narrative statement addressing the

Factors for Award in Section V. No

attachments are permitted.

(5) Management/Work Plan.

(6) Recipient/Student Binding

Agreement. HUD does not provide a

model or sample format for this

document.

(7) Recipient/Work Placement

Agreement. HUD does not provide a

model or sample format for this

document. If you include executed

agreements with your application, they

belong here.

(8) Budget. Using the forms provided

for the August 2001 through August

2003 funding period.

(9) Application for Federal Assistance

(HUD–424).

(10) Standard Form for Assurances—

Non-Construction Programs (SF–424B).

(11) Drug-Free Workplace

Certification (HUD–50070).

(12) Certification of Payments to

Influence Transactions (Form HUD–

50071).

(13) Applicant/Recipient Disclosure

Update Report (HUD–2880).

(14) Assurance regarding the

applicant’s financial management

systems.

(B) Final Selection

If your application passes the

threshold requirements, it will be rated

and then ranked based on its total score

on the selection factors. Your

application will be considered for

selection based on its rank order. HUD

may make awards out of rank order to

achieve geographic diversity, and may

provide assistance to support a number

of students that is less than the number

requested under your application or a

lower funding level per student, in

order to provide assistance to as many

highly ranked applications as possible.

If there is a tie in the point scores of

two applications, the rank order will be

determined by the scores on the

selection factor entitled ‘‘Quality of the

Academic Program.’’ The application

with the most points on this factor will

be given the higher rank. If there is still

a tie, the rank order will be determined

by the applicants’ scores on the

selection factor entitled ‘‘Effectiveness

of program administration.’’ The

application with the most points for this

Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 230 / Wednesday, November 29, 2000 / Notices 71231

selection factor will be given the higher

rank.

If there are insufficient funds to fund

an application, even if the request is

reduced to the minimum number of

students which could be funded (i.e.,

three students per institution of higher

education), HUD may select the next

ranked application which would not

exceed the funding left available and

still fund the minimum number of

students allowed.

HUD reserves the right to make

selections out of rank order to provide

for geographic distribution of funded

CDWSPs. If HUD decides to use this

option, it will do so only if two adjacent

HUD (Hubs) (formerly referred to as

regions) do not yield at least one

fundable CDWSP on the basis of rank

order. If this occurs, HUD will fund the

highest ranking applicant within the

two Hubs.

HUD reserves the right to reduce your

amount of funding in order to fund as

many highly ranked applications as

possible. Additionally, if funds remain

after funding the highest ranked

application, HUD may fund part of the

next highest ranking application (as

long as it would provide assistance to

the minimum number of students

required to be served) in a given

program area. If you turn down the

award offer, HUD will make the same

determination for the next highestranking application. If funds remain

after all selections have been made, the

remaining will be carried over to the

next funding cycle’s competition.

(C) Negotiations

After selections have been made, HUD

may require winners to participate in

negotiations to determine the Grant

Budget. In cases where HUD cannot

successfully conclude negotiations, or

you fail to provide HUD with requested

information, an award will not be made.

In such instances, HUD may elect to

offer an award to the next highest

ranking applicant, and proceed with

negotiations with the next highest

applicant.

VII. Corrections to Deficient

Applications

After the application due date, HUD

may not, consistent with its regulations

in 24 CFR part 4, subpart B, consider

any unsolicited information you, the

applicant, may want to provide. HUD

may contact you, however, to clarify an

item in your application or to correct

technical deficiencies. You should note,

however, that HUD may not seek

clarification of items or responses that

improve the substantive quality of your

response to any selection factors. In

order not to unreasonably exclude

applications from being rated and

ranked, HUD may, however, contact

applicants to ensure proper completion

of the application and will do so on a

uniform basis for all applicants.

Examples of curable (correctable)

technical deficiencies include your

failure to submit the proper

certifications or your failure to submit

an application that contains an original

signature by an authorized official. In

each case, HUD will notify you in

writing by describing the clarification or

technical deficiency. HUD will notify

applicants by facsimile or by return

receipt requested. You must submit

clarifications or corrections of technical

deficiencies in accordance with the

information provided by HUD within 14

calendar days of the date of receipt of

the HUD notification. If your deficiency

is not corrected within this time period,

HUD will reject your application as

incomplete, and it will not be

considered for funding.

VIII. Environmental Requirements

This NOFA does not direct, provide

for assistance or loan and mortgage

insurance for, or otherwise govern or

regulate real property acquisition,

disposition, leasing, rehabilitation,

alteration, demolition, or new

construction, or establish, revise, or

provide for standards for construction or

construction materials, manufactured

housing, or occupancy. Accordingly,

under 24 CFR 50.19(c)(1), this NOFA is

categorically excluded from

environmental review under the

National Environmental Policy Act of

1969, as amended (42 U.S.C. 4321) and

no Finding of No Significant Impact is

needed. In addition, the provision of

assistance under this NOFA is

categorically excluded from

environmental review under

§ 50.19(b)(3) and (b)(9).

IX. Other Matters

(A) Federalism, Executive Order 13132

This notice does not have federalism

implications and does not impose

substantial direct compliance costs on

State and local governments or preempt

State law within the meaning of

Executive Order 13132 (entitled

‘‘Federalism’’).

(B) Prohibition Against Lobbying

Activities

Applicants for funding under this

NOFA (except Indian Housing

Authorities established by tribal

governments exercising their sovereign

powers with respect to expenditures

specifically permitted by Federal law)

are subject to the provision of Section

319 of the Department of Interior and

Related Agencies Appropriations Act for

Fiscal Year 1991, 31 U.S.C. 1352 (the

Byrd Amendment) and to the provisions

of the Lobbying Disclosure Act of 1995,

Public Law 104–65 (December 19,

1995).

The Byrd Amendment, which is

implemented in regulations at 24 CFR

part 87, prohibits applicants for Federal

contracts and grants from using

appropriated funds to attempt to

influence Federal Executive or

legislative officers or employees in

connection with obtaining such

assistance, or with its extension,

continuation, renewal, amendment, or

modification. The Byrd Amendment

applies to the funds that are the subject

of this NOFA. Therefore, applicants

must file a certification stating that they

have not made and will not make any

prohibited payments and, if any

payments or agreement to make

payments of nonappropriated funds for

these purposes have been made, a form

SF–LLL disclosing such payments must

be submitted. The certification and the

SF–LLL are included in the application

kit.

The Lobbying Disclosure Act of 1995,

Public Law 104–65 (December 19,

1995), which repealed section 112 of the

HUD Reform Act and resulted in

elimination of the regulations at 24 CFR

part 86, requires all persons and entities

who lobby covered Executive or

Legislative Branch officials to register

with the Secretary of the Senate and the

Clerk of the House of Representatives

and file reports concerning their

lobbying activities.

(C) Section 102 of the HUD Reform Act;

Documentation and Public Access

Requirements

Section 102 of the Department of

Housing and Urban Development

Reform Act of 1989 (HUD Reform Act)

and the final rule codified at 24 CFR

part 4, subpart A, published on April 1,

1996 (61 FR 1448), contain a number of

provisions that are designed to ensure

greater accountability and integrity in

the provision of certain types of

assistance administered by HUD. On

January 14, 1992, HUD published, at 57

FR 1942, a notice that also provides

information on the implementation of

section 102. The documentation, public

access, and disclosure requirements of

section 102 are applicable to assistance

awarded under this NOFA as follows:

(1) Documentation and public access

requirements. HUD will ensure that

documentation and other information

regarding each application submitted

pursuant to this NOFA are sufficient to

71232 Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 230 / Wednesday, November 29, 2000 / Notices

indicate the basis upon which

assistance was provided or denied. This

material, including any letters of

support, will be made available for

public inspection for a five-year period

beginning not less than 30 days after the

award of the assistance. Material will be

made available in accordance with the

Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C.

552) and HUD’s implementing

regulations at 24 CFR part 15. In

addition, HUD will include the

recipients of assistance pursuant to this

NOFA in its Federal Register notice of

all recipients of HUD assistance

awarded on a competitive basis.

(2) Disclosures. HUD will make

available to the public for five years all

applicant disclosure reports (HUD Form

2880) submitted in connection with this

NOFA. Update reports (also Form 2880)

will be made available along with the

applicant disclosure reports, but in no

case for a period less than three years.

All reports—both applicant disclosures

and updates—will be made available in

accordance with the Freedom of

Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and

HUD’s implementing regulations at 24

CFR part 15.

(D) Section 103 of the HUD Reform Act

HUD’s regulations implementing

section 103 of the Department of

Housing and Urban Development

Reform Act of 1989 (42 U.S.C. 3537a),

codified in 24 CFR part 4, apply to this

funding competition. The regulations

continue to apply until the

announcement of the selection of

successful applicants. HUD employees

involved in the review of applications

and in the making of funding decisions

are limited by regulations from

providing advance information to any

person (other than an authorized

employee of HUD) concerning funding

decisions, or from otherwise giving any

applicant an unfair competitive

advantage. Persons who apply for

assistance in this competition should

confine their inquiries to the subject

areas permitted under 24 CFR part 4.

Applicants or employees who have

ethics-related questions, such as

whether particular subject matter can be

discussed with persons outside the

Department, should contact HUD’s

Ethics Law Division (202) 708–3815

(voice), (202) 708–1112 (TTY). (These

are not toll-free numbers.) For HUD

employees who have specific program

questions, the employee should contact

the appropriate Field Office Counsel or

Headquarters Counsel for the program to

which the question pertains.
