Xxxxxxxx Applicants. Those applicants who meet all the minimum eligibility and qualification requirements, including time in grade at the time the vacancy announcement closes, or in the case of Aopen@ announcements at the time application is made.
Xxxxxxxx Applicants. The State Animal Health Authorities and Native American Tribal governments may submit an application. In the event multiple States or Tribes work cooperatively as one project, one person from either a State or Tribe involved in the project must be responsible for the application and administration of the agreement. This person will be referred to as the Project Administrator and will be the primary contact for USDA. This person will also be the duly authorized representative who will sign the cooperative agreement application. The Project Administrator must submit an application package described in section IV.A. and the workplan in the format described in section IV.B. Project Administrators whose projects are considered for funding on an individual basis will be required to complete the application for Federal Assistance for the official award of the cooperative agreement. Please note funding restrictions in section IV.E. Applications involving a request for funds for a use that is restricted will be returned to the cooperator and will not be eligible for award. The cooperator must resubmit an application which does not involve a request for funds for restricted use in order to be considered eligible for award.
Xxxxxxxx Applicants. Eligible applicants include State departments of agriculture, State land- grant universities, non-profit agricultural organizations, and other public or private organizations with the local experience needed to lead an educational program for farmers and ranchers in any area of the United States or Puerto Rico. Applicants must have demonstrated capabilities in developing and implementing risk management and marketing options for Targeted Commodities. Applicants must also be able to demonstrate that they will receive a non-financial benefit as a result of a partnership agreement. Non- financial benefits must be to the applicant, not the agricultural community, and must include more than the ability to provide employment. The applicant must demonstrate that performance under the partnership agreement will further the specific mission of the applicant (such as providing research or activities necessary for graduate or other students to complete their educational program) or increase the knowledge base of the farmers and ranchers that are served by the applicant and thereby decreasing the risk of loss to the applicant (such as applicants who provide goods or services to farmers or ranchers and would be adversely affected if the farmer or ranchers did not have adequate risk protection).
Xxxxxxxx Applicants. Each state must have a formally approved State Mitigation Plan (SMP) to be eligible for FEMA assistance. Washington State has an approved enhanced SMP. State agencies, local governments, and tribal governments are eligible sub-recipients to receive financial assistance under a Fire Management Assistance Declaration. The Incident Commander must request the sub-recipient’s resources. Privately owned entities and volunteer firefighting organizations are not eligible sub-recipients, but may be reimbursed through a contract or compact with an eligible sub-recipient for eligible costs associated with the declared fire or fire complex.
