Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 123 / Monday, June 29, 2009 / Notices 31051 

be given 30 days to apply. The SGA will 

provide a description of the projects, 

proposed scope of work and 

performance periods, eligibility 

requirements and the dollar amounts of 

the awards, and the estimated number 

of grants to be awarded. The SGA also 

will describe what is required in the 

grant application, the closing date for 

receipt of the applications, any special 

reporting requirements, and the rating 

criteria that will be used in reviewing 

grant applications. The SGA will 

provide all of the necessary information 

for interested parties to participate in 

this competitive grant process. 

B. Award 

Grant applications submitted in 

response to the SGA will be reviewed by 

a technical panel for consistency with 

the SGA requirements. Awards are 

subject to availability of funds and 

evaluation of the applicant’s technical 

proposal. Funding decisions are made at 

the discretion of the Assistant Secretary 

of Labor for Mine Safety and Health. 

A technical panel will advise the 

Grant Officer during the review and 

rating process. Panel members will be 

selected based on their knowledge of the 

subject matter. Each panel member will 

perform an independent evaluation of 

the application based solely upon the 

criteria announced in the SGA. 

After the review, the Grant Officer 

may ask an applicant to provide 

supplemental information that may be 

necessary to clarify issues within the 

application. Negotiations are not a 

guarantee of funding. 

Once selections are made, awardees 

are notified. If the applicant accepts the 

terms and conditions outlined in the 

award package, the Grant Officer will 

execute the grant award and funds will 

be allocated. 

C. Post-Award Process 

MSHA anticipates that it will meet 

with all successful applicants before the 

grants are started. MSHA will provide 

this meeting information in the award 

package. 

The selected applicant must submit 

financial and activity reports on a 

quarterly basis, beginning ninety days 

from the award of the grant. MSHA will 

work with the grantee to establish report 

contents, which, among other things, 

will include performance measures to 

encourage continuous improvement. 

The report must be submitted within 30 

days after the close of the quarter. 

D. Completion of the Grant 

After completion of the grant, the 

grantee must complete a Final Project 

Report, which will include an 

assessment of project performance and 

outcomes achieved. MSHA also will 

arrange for an independent evaluation 

of each funded project. All grantees 

must agree to cooperate with this 

evaluation and must make records 

available for all project activities. 

VI. Special Procedures for Applying 

MSHA will be accepting grant 

applications through the Grants.gov 

Web site only. A downloadable 

application package for the BrookwoodSago grant program will be available 

through this Web site. 

In order for interested parties to 

participate, they must have a Dun and
