Subject: [CPEO-MEF] SUPERFUND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE GRANTS REQUIREMENTS REVISED
 
US EPA Headquarters

FOR RELEASE: THURSDAY, OCT. 5, 2000
SUPERFUND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE GRANTS REQUIREMENTS REVISED


Revisions to the Technical Assistance Grants (TAGs)
requirements will make grant money more readily available to
local community groups affected by Superfund sites. The final
rule, published October 2 in the Federal Register, will promote
effective public participation in the Superfund cleanup process.
Specific changes in the rule allow for: advance payments up to
$5,000 to new recipients; less burdensome application
requirements; elimination of the 20 percent cap on administrative
expenses; reduction in reporting requirements; easing of
requirements necessary for receiving a waiver to the 20 percent
matching funds requirement; replacement of the three-year
funding period requirement with a funding period tailored to
site-specific needs; and clarification of the technical advisor
qualifications for the hiring of advisors with expertise in
relocation, redevelopment and health issues. For a copy of the
Federal Register Notice visit EPA's web page at:
http://www.epa.gov/fedrgstr/ and choose October 2. For further
information, call the Superfund Hotline at 1-800-424-9346 or
703-412-9810.
