The application summary information provided is obviously a synopsis of that provided by the applicant and does not include NIPC analysis. If you require more information please call the contact person listed for each application.

The Project Review Monthly Notification of grant applications is now available online as a Portable Document Format (PDF) file. In order to view, download. or print this file, you will need to use the Adobe Acrobat Reader software that is available free of charge from the Adobe web site.

 September 2004 Project Review Monthly Notification & Listing (41 KB)

The Planning Committee will consider these applications at its September 16, 2004 meeting. NIPC's comments and recommendations are solely advisory as stipulated in our enabling legislation. However, the project notification process affords local governments and others with an early warning. It also provides an opportunity to identify and address conflicts, duplications, or weaknesses in a proposed project. Our purpose is the use of federal and state grants to further local and area wide objectives.

All listed requests for funding, unless objections are received or a project is identified as having a potential regional impact, will be addressed as part of a consent agenda by the Commission's Planning Committee at its 9:00 A.M. September 16, 2004 meeting. Finally, you can help us if you include our NIPC Project Number in any project related correspondence.
