(in this paragraph referred to as a ‘‘minimum allo-
cation State’’), then paragraph (1), as so carried 
out, shall not apply, and the Attorney General shall 
instead—

amount to each State; and 
‘‘(B) using the amount remaining after 
carrying out subparagraph (A), carry out para-
graph (1) in a manner that excludes each min-
imum allocation State, including the population

tice by the State government and units of local

AMOUNTS.—Except as pro-
vided in subsection (e)(1), any amounts remaining

‘‘(2) ALLOCATION.— 
‘‘(A) IN GENERAL.—From the amounts re-
ferred to in paragraph (1) with respect to a 
State (in this subsection referred to as the 
‘local amount’), the Attorney General shall allo-
cate to each unit of local government an 
amount which bears the same ratio to such 
share as the average annual number of part 1

criminal justice services to units of local government 
and units of local government whose allocation under 
this section is less than $10,000.

torney General determines, on the basis of information 
available during any grant period, that any allocation (or 
portion thereof) under this section to a State for such 
grant period will not be required, or that a State will be 
unable to qualify or receive funds under this subpart, or 
that a State chooses not to participate in the program es-
tablished under this subpart, then such State’s allocation 
(or portion thereof) shall be awarded by the Attorney Gen-
eral to units of local government, or combinations thereof, 
within such State, giving priority to those jurisdictions 
with the highest annual number of part 1 violent crimes 
of the Uniform Crime Reports reported by the unit of local 
government to the Federal Bureau of Investigation for the
