The MMRS Leadership shall ensure that local strategic goals, objectives, operational capabilities, and resource requirements align with State and Urban Area Homeland Security Strategies and sub -State regional strategies. Critical factors in planning are to ensure that MMRS jurisdictions have: • Applicable and up to date plans for responding to mass casualty incidents caused by any hazards • Applicable procedures and operational guides to implement the response actions within the local plan including patient tracking that addresses identifying and tracking children, access and functional needs population, and the elderly and keeping families intact where possible • Identified resources for medical supplies necessary to support children during an emergency, including pharmaceuticals and pediatric -sized equipment on which first responders and medical providers are trained • Subject matter experts, durable medical equipment, consumable medical supplies and other resources required to assist children and adults with disabilities to maintain health, safety and usual levels of independence in general population environments t4i CCP Planning. Integrating the whole community, including non -governmental entities, into the planning process is critical to achieve comprehensive community preparedness and resilience. To meet this important objective, HSGP funds may be used to support the following: • Establishing and sustaining bodies to serve as Citizen Corps Councils • Assuring that State and local government homeland security strategies, policies, guidance, plans, and evaluations include a greater emphasis on government/non-governmental collaboration, citizen preparedness, and volunteer participation • Developing and implementing a community preparedness strategy for the State/local jurisdiction • Developing or reproducing accessible public education and outreach materials to: increase citizen preparedness and knowledge of protective actions (to include the national Ready Campaign materials); promote training, exercise, and volunteer opportunities; and inform .the public about emergency plans, evacuation routes, shelter locations, and public alerts/warnings All public education and outreach materials must include the national or jurisdiction's Citizen Corps logo, tagline or website or the Ready logo, tagline, or website and comply with logo standards. For more information go to http://www.citizencorps.00v. In addition, all public education and outreach materials must be accessible to people with disabilities and must be provided in formats that allows access to information that is comparable to access available to others. Allowable expenditures include: - Media campaigns: Public Service Announcements (PSAs), camera-ready materials, website support, and newsletters - Outreach activities and public events: Booth displays, event backdrops or signs, displays and demonstrations, utilizing translation services, and informational materials such as brochures/flyers - Costs associated with inclusive practices and the provision of reasonable accommodations and modifications to provide full access for children and adults with disabilities Establishing, expanding, and maintaining volunteer programs and volunteer recruitment efforts that support disaster preparedness and/or response Citizen support for emergency responders is critical through year-round volunteer programs and as surge capacity in disaster response. Citizen Corps funding may be used to establish, expand, or maintain volunteer programs that support disaster preparedness and/or response including but not limited to: Citizen Corps Affiliate Programs and Organizations, Community Emergency Response Teems (CERT), Fire Corps, Medical Reserve Corps (MRC), Neighborhood Watch/USAonWatch, Volunteers in Police Service (VIPS), and jurisdiction specific volunteer efforts Allowable expenditures include: - Recruiting, screening, and training volunteers (e.g., background checks) - Retaining, recognizing, and motivating volunteers 67 - Purchasing, maintaining, or subscribing to a system to track volunteers (to include identification and credentialing systems, and to track volunteer hours) and other available resources in compliance with applicable privacy laws - Necessary non-structural accommodations to include persons with programmatic and communications access needs (e.g., sign language interpreters, Computer Assisted Realtime Translation (CART) and other modifications of policies and practices to fully include volunteers with disabilities) - Evaluating volunteers Organizational activities supported with CCP funding are limited to 25 percent (25%) of the grantee's CCP funding. Organizational activities include hiring of full- or part-time staff or contractors for emergency management activities Activities Information support of public -private partnerships are allowable expenses. Program management: - Salary for a dedicated liaison who acts as the primary point of contact, coordinates the public -private partnership and ensures proper implementation of the strategic plan - Facilities, including meeting space and work space for private sector liaisons. Grantees are encouraged to use free space/locations/facilities, whenever possible, prior to the rental of space/locations/facilities - Supplies needed to support regular communications and document partnership efforts Utilization of standardized resource management concepts such as typing, inventorying, organizing, and tracking to facilitate the dispatch, deployment, and recovery of resources before, during, and after an incident Outreach and marketing to support recruitment, as well as sustain and increase year around partnership efforts: - Support for in -person meetings, events, and conferences that bring the public and private sectors together Web -based and social media tactics (webinars, emails, newsletters, alerts, databases, online collaboration tools, website development and maintenance, etc) - Traditional print and radio outreach (advertisements, localization of Ready public service announcements, etc) - Collateral (brochures, banners, fact sheets and other informational material) Structures and mechanisms for information sharing between the public and private sector: - Tools, software, programs, and other mechanisms that support two-way information sharing during normal and emergency operations (z - Means to receive input or feedback from the private sector, and encourage participation from civic leaders from all sectors - Regular and timely communications on subjects relating to all phases of emergency management, such as newsletters, emails, and alerts Tools, resources and activities that facilitate shared situational awareness between the public and private sectors - Web -based and new media platforms that allow real-time information exchange - Asset mapping, such as participation in FEMA's Total Asset Visibility and LogViz initiatives - A seat(s) in the emergency operation center, or virtual EOC Operational Support: - Tools for identifying and tracking available paid and unpaid disaster response resources - Dedicated space and equipment for private sector representation within a State, county, or city emergency operation center - A dedicated business emergency operations center that works with the State, county or city EOC (not construction) - Tools for real time information sharing between the public and private sector - Licensing, screening, or other requirements for access to real EOC or virtual EOC Equipment Information MMRS Equipment. MMRS.grant funds are intended to ensure an appropriate supply of pharmaceuticals and equipment, personal protective equipment, as well as detection equipment for chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosive incidents for the first crucial hours of a response to a mass casualty incident. Procurements should have a sound threat based justification with an aim to reduce the consequences of mass casualty incidents during the first crucial hours of a response. Prior to procuring pharmaceuticals and equipment with MMRS grant funds, grantees must have in place an inventory management plan. The inventory management plan should avoid large periodic variations in supplies due to coinciding purchase and expiration dates. MMRS grantees are strongly encouraged to enter into rotational procurement agreements with vendors and distributors. MMRS grant funds cannot be used to duplicate supplies already available through local and State sources, including local/regional public health offices and hospital associations, or other Federal programs. Purchases of pharmaceuticals have to include a budget for the disposal of expired drugs within the period of performance of the FY 2011 HSGP. The cost of disposal cannot be carried over to another FEMA grant or grant period. mm CCP Equipment. States and Urban Areas are encouraged to fully leverage all HSGP resources for equipment to support volunteer personnel in preparedness and response. Any equipment purchased with CCP funding must be used for specific preparedness or volunteer training or by volunteers in carrying out their response functions. Examples of equipment used to support training and exercises for citizens include items such as burn pans or sample preparedness kits. Expenditures for kits used in volunteer response (e.g., CERT or MRC kits / backpacks) or clothing for official identification must not exceed 30 percent (30%) of the total Citizen Corps Program allocation. Clothing for official identification includes those items that volunteers are required to wear when engaging in public safety activities or disaster response (e.g., t-shirts for CERT members, baseball caps for Neighborhood Watch/USAonWatch Program foot patrol members). To assure appropriate and consistent use, such clothing items must be issued by the agency that trains the volunteers. CCP supported volunteer programs and assets, which are authorized to deploy in response and recovery operations, must meet the minimum training and equipment requirements, as determined by the national program office in coordination with the sponsoring State/territory. Necessary accommodations that meet the disability related access and functional needs of participants should be provided. Training Information and Requirements Training Information Reporting System ("Web -Forms'). Web -Forms is an electronic form/data management system built to assist the SAA and its designated State/territory Training Point of Contact (TPOC) with the reporting of State and Federal sponsored training supported by HSGP funds. Web -Forms can be accessed through the FEMA Toolkit located at htto://www.firstresnondertrainino.00v/admin. Types of Training. FEMA resources include a number of different training sources: FEMA Provided Training. These programs or courses are developed for and delivered by institutions and organizations funded by FEMA. This includes the Center for Domestic Preparedness (CDP), the Emergency Management Institute (EMI) and the National Training and Education Division (NTED) training partner programs funded through congressional Appropriations and the Competitive and Continuing Training Grant programs. Programs funded through appropriation include but are not limited to the National Domestic Preparedness Consortium (NDPC) and the Rural Domestic Preparedness Consortium (RDPC). Training Not Provided by FEMA. These courses are either State sponsored or Federal sponsored, coordinated and approved by the SAA or their designated TPOC, and fall within the FEMA mission scope to 70 prepare State, local, Tribal, and territorial personnel to prevent, protect against, respond to, and recover from acts of terrorism or catastrophic events. - State Sponsored Courses. These courses are developed for and/or delivered by institutions or organizations other than Federal entities or FEMA and are sponsored by theSAA or their designated TPOC. - Approved State Sponsored Course Catalog. This catalog lists State/territory sponsored courses that fall within the FEMA mission scope and have been approved through the FEMA course review and approval process. An updated version of this catalog can be accessed at http://www.firstres,pondertraininq gLov. - Federal Sponsored Courses. This catalog lists courses developed for and/or delivered by institutions funded by Federal entities other than FEMA. - Approved Federal Sponsored Course Catalog. This catalog lists Federal - sponsored courses that fall within the FEMA mission scope, and have been approved through the FEMA course review and approval process. An updated version of this catalog can be accessed at http://www. firstrespondedrainin a. ao v. - Additionally the new National Preparedness Directorate (NPD) Online Course Catalog (OCC) allows access to courses delivered by the CDP, EMI, and NTED. It can be accessed at htto:iltrainind.fema.aov/occ/. - Joint Training and Exercises with the Public and Private Sectors. These courses are sponsored and coordinated by private sector entities to enhance public -private partnerships for training personnel to prevent, protect against, respond to, and recover from acts of terrorism or catastrophic events. FEMA Provided Training. FEMA funds the direct delivery of a variety of courses that States, Tribes, and territories can request to meet training needs. These courses are listed in the NTED approved course catalog listed at http://Www.firstresi)ondertrainina.aov. Each FEMA training partner should contact the SAA or designated TPOC for locations within the State that are appropriate for the training. When the direct delivery funds are exhausted, the training partner can continue to offer the classes to the States through one of two methods —the Voluntary Training Enhancement Program (VTEP) or the Excess Delivery Acquisition Program (EDAP). VTEP is a voluntary program designed to increase flexibility for States and territories while enhancing NTE's training delivery capability and complementing the current training partner pool. Funding from previous fiscal years may be used to support a State, territory, or Urban Area's implementation of this program. Through VTEP, the SAA has the authority to adopt various NTED provided programs for delivery by institutions within its State and local jurisdictions, and designate institutions as recognized providers for the identified standardized curriculum. 71 EDAP allows NTED training partner to charge for a course delivery when the Federal grant that developed the program is completed or more deliveries of a requested class are needed than the grant funds can accommodate. This cost per class is approved by FEMA so that States pay for the cost of instruction only, not the curriculum development costs that were paid by FEMA training grant funds. HSGP funds can be used to pay for the delivery of these classes within a State at the request of the SAA/TPOC. Attending Training Not Provided by FEMA (State or Federal Sponsored Courses). States, territories, and Urban Areas are not required to request approval from FEMA for personnel to attend training not provided by FEMA (State or Federal -sponsored courses) provided that the training is coordinated with and approved by the SAA or TPOC and falls within the FEMA mission scope and the jurisdiction's EOP and strategy of preparing State, local, Tribal, and territorial personnel or citizens to prevent, protect against, respond to, and recover from acts of terrorism or catastrophic events. States, territories, and Urban Areas are required, within 30 days after attendance, to submit information through the SAA or TPOC via Web -Forms on all training not provided by FEMA, but supported with HSGP funds. This information will consist of course title, course description, mission area, level of training, the training provider, the date of the course, the number and associated disciplines of the individuals, and the sponsoring jurisdiction. States, territories, and Urban Areas intending to use FEMA funds to support attendance at training not provided by FEMA must ensure these courses: • Fall within the FEMA mission scope to prepare State, local, Tribal, and territorial personnel to prevent, protect against, respond to, and recover from acts of terrorism and catastrophic events • Build additional capabilities that: (a) support a specific training need identified by the State, territory, and Urban Area, and (b) comport with the State, territory, or Urban Area Homeland Security Strategy • Address specific tasks and/or competencies articulated in FEMA's Emergency Responder Guidelines and the Homeland Security Guidelines for Prevention and Deterrence • Address specific capabilities. and related tasks articulated in the September 2007 version of the TCL • Support the specific program training activities identified in the individual HSGP grant programs (SHSP, UASI, OPSG, MMRS, CCP) for which the funding will be used In support of the continuing efforts to build common catalogs of approved training not provided by FEMA, the SAA/TPOC will be allowed three deliveries of the same course Within a State/territory before the course is required to go through the NTED State course review and approval process. Additional course deliveries will be authorized during the review period. However, if the course is disapproved as part of the process, no additional FEMA funds can be dedicated to attending the course. 72 State and Federal -Sponsored Course Catalogs. Courses approved through NTED will be added to either the approved State Sponsored Course Catalog or the Federal Sponsored Course Catalog. Courses identified within these catalogs may be attended on an unlimited basis within any State/territory as long as the training is coordinated and approved by the SAA/TPOC. A full description of the NTED Course Development, Review, and Approval Process, as well as the approved course catalogs, can be found at http✓/www.firstresoondertrainina gov/odp webforms. NTED will respond to the initial request for review within 15 days with one.of the following outcomes: • Course concept is approved as consistent with the State plan and the State should submit the full course package for subject matter expert review and comment. • Course concept is disapproved as inconsistent with State plan, FEMA guidance, or is exactly the same as another course in the catalog (no need for another approval, refer to the curriculum already developed and approved). At any time, the SAA/TPOC (for State -sponsored courses) or the Federal Agency POC (for Federal sponsored courses) may request the addition of a course to the corresponding approved catalog by submitting the associated Web -Form (i.e., Request for Addition to the Approved State -Sponsored Catalog) for review. If a class on the same subject is already in the catalog, the submitting State should provide documentation as to why the course is unique, after contacting the owner(s) of the other courses to review the curriculum. This step is required to avoid unnecessary duplication of similar courses in the catalog, allow States to share course development costs, permit all States to have access to new or unique courses developed by other providers, and allow States to direct their training dollars to delivery rather than development. If it is determined that the proposed course meets the above listed criteria, the providing entity (SAA/TPOC or Federal Agency POC) will be invited to submit the Course Review and Approval Request Form along with all supporting training materials. For further information on developing courses using the instructional design methodology and tools that can facilitate the process, SAAs and TPOCs are encouraged to review the NTED Strategy for Blended Learning and access the Responder Training Development Center (RTDC) available at http://www.firstrespondertrainina aov/rtdc/state% FEMA funds must be used to supplement, not supplant, existing funds that have been appropriated for the same purpose. FEMA will conduct periodic reviews of all State, territory, and Urban Area training funded by FEMA. These reviews may include requests for all course materials and physical observation of., or participation in, the funded training. If these reviews determine that courses are outside the scope of this guidance, grantees will be asked to repay grant funds expended in support of those efforts. 73 States and territories are required to conduct an Improvement Plan Workshop and Training and Exercise Plan Workshop to identify best practices, capability gaps, key priorities, and major events over a multi -year time frame and to align training and exercises in support of those priorities. A Multi -year Training and Exercise Plan will be produced from the Training and Exercise Plan Workshop to include the State's training and exercise priorities, associated training and exercise capabilities, and a multi -year training and exercise schedule. Further guidance concerning the Multi -year Training and Exercise Plan can be found in the Exercises discussion immediately following. Joint Training and Exercises with the Public and Private Sectors. Trainings and exercises designed to enhance private sector and public sector coordination are allowable. Overtime pay for first responders and emergency managers who participate in public -private training and exercises is allowable. In addition, States, territories, Tribes, and local units of government are encouraged to incorporate the private sector in government -sponsored training and exercises. CCP Training. Training funded through the CCP includes but is not limited to: all - hazards safety such as emergency preparedness, basic first aid, life saving skills, crime prevention and terrorism awareness, school preparedness, public health issues, mitigation/property damage prevention, safety in the home, light search and rescue skills, principles of NIMS/ICS, community relations, volunteer management, serving and integrating people with disabilities, pet care preparedness, any training necessary to participate in volunteer activities, any training necessary to fulfill surge capacity roles, or other training that promotes individual, family, or community safety and preparedness. There is no cap on the number of deliveries State or local jurisdictions may conduct of non -responder community -based training workshops, seminars, demonstrations, or conferences. Examples include: CPR/AED training, identity theft workshops, terrorism awareness seminars, chain -saw safety demonstrations, and disability -inclusive community preparedness conferences. Funding for CERT training includes the delivery of the CERT Basic Training Course, supplemental training for CERT members who have completed the basic training, the CERT Train -the -Trainer Course, and the CERT Program Manager Course. Any CERT Basic training conducted by State or local entities must: 1) include the topics covered in the FEMA CERT Basic Training Course; 2) be instructor -led; and 3) classroom -based, using lecture, demonstration, and hands-on practice throughout. Note that the Independent Study course, "Introduction to CERT" (IS 317) must not be substituted for classroom delivery of CERT Basic Training. Supplemental training for CERT members who have completed the basic training includes modules available on the national CERT website, as well as other supplemental training that meets the following criteria: Relates to a reasonably foreseeable activity which CERT members might be tasked to perform in support of emergency services responders.; or, Increases competency and understanding of the emergency management context in which CERT members may be asked to operate; or 74 Enhances understanding of a particular local hazard CERT members might encounter in their response activities. There is no cap on the number of deliveries State or local jurisdictions may conduct of the CERT Basic Training, the CERT Train -the -Trainer, Campus CERT Train -the - Trainer, Teen CERT Train -the -Trainer, or CERT Program Manager courses, or supplemental/advanced training for CERT program participants. Any training supported with these CCP funds should be delivered with specific consideration to include all ages, ethnic and cultural groups, persons with disabilities, and access.and functional needs populations at venues throughout the community, to include schools, neighborhoods, places of worship, the private sector, non- governmental organizations, and government locations. Expenditures to provide necessary non-structural accommodations for persons with disabilities and other access and functional needs is allowable (e.g., sign language interpreters, CART and other modifications of policies and practices to fully include participants with disabilities). Jurisdictions are also encouraged to leverage existing training provided via educational/professional facilities and to incorporate non-traditional methodologies such as the Internet, distance learning, or home study whenever such delivery supports training objectives. Pilot courses and innovative approaches to training citizens and instructors are encouraged. Instruction for trainers and training to support the Citizen Corps Council members in their efforts to manage and coordinate the Citizen Corps mission is also an allowable use of the FY 2011 CCP funding. Allowable Training Costs Allowable training -related costs include, but are not limited to, the following: Developing, Delivering, and Evaluating Training. Includes costs related to administering.the training, planning, scheduling, facilities, materials and supplies, reproduction of materials, disability accommodations, and equipment. Overtime and Backfill. The entire amount of overtime costs, including payments related to backfilling personnel, which are the direct result of attendance at FEMA and/or approved training courses and programs, are allowable. These costs are allowed only to the extent the payment for such services is in accordance with the policies of the State or unit(s) of local government and has the approval of the State or the awarding agency, whichever is applicable. In no case is dual compensation allowable. That is, an employee of a unit of government may not receive compensation from their unit or agency of government AND from an award for a single period of time (e.g., 1:00 P.M. to 5:00 p.m.), even though such work may benefit both activities. Travel. Costs (e.g., airfare, mileage, per diem, hotel) are allowable as expenses by employees who are on travel status for official business related to approved training. 75 Hiring of Full or Part -Time Staff or Contractors/Consultants. Payment of salaries and fringe benefits to full or part-time staff or contractors/consultants must be in accordance with the policies of the State or unit(s) of local government and have the approval of the State or awarding agency, whichever is applicable. Such costs must be included within the funding allowed for program management personnel expenses, which must not exceed 15 percent (15%) of the total allocation as specified in section E.6. In no case is dual compensation allowable (see above). Certification/Recertification of Instructors. States are encouraged to follow the NTE Instructor Quality Assurance Program to ensure a minimum level of competency and corresponding levels of evaluation of student learning. This is particularly important for those courses that involve training of trainers. This information is contained in IB 193, issued October 20, 2005. Additional information can be obtained at httn://www.fema.aov/000d ouidence/download/10146. Exercise Requirements Training and Exercise Plan Workshop. States and Urban Areas are required to conduct an annual Training and Exercise Plan Workshop (TEPW). A Multi -year Training and Exercise Plan must be developed from the workshops on an annual basis and submitted to the State's respective Exercise Program point of contact. The State Exercise Program point of contact should submit a copy of the plan to hseen ..dhs.gov. The Training and Exercise Plan will include the State's prioritized capability requirements and a Multi -Year Training and Exercise Plan (schedule) that supports the identified capabilities. In addition to submission of the Multi -Year Training and Exercise Plan to hseep .dhs.eov, all scheduled training and exercises should be entered in the HSEEP National Exercise Scheduling (NEXS) System, located in the HSEEP Toolkit.on the HSEEP website https://hseeo.dhs.00v. A TEPW user guides and a template of the Multi -Year Training and Exercise Plan can be found on the HSEEP website httos✓/hseeD. dhs. aov. States must complete a cycle of exercise activity during the period of this grant. States and Urban Areas are encouraged to use exercises as an opportunity to meet the requirements of multiple exercise programs. To this end, grantees are encouraged to invite representatives/planners involved with other federally - mandated or private exercise activities. States and Urban Areas are encouraged to share, at a minimum, the multi -year training and exercise schedule with those departments, agencies, and organizations included in the plan. • Exercise. Scenarios. The scenarios used in HSGP-funded exercises must be based on the State/Urban Area's Homeland Security Strategy and plans. Acceptable scenarios for SHSP, UASI, MMRS, and CCP exercises include: ILI chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, explosive, cyber, agricultural and natural or technological disasters. Exercise scenarios must be catastrophic in scope and size as defined by the National Response Framework. The scenarios used in HSGP-funded exercises must focus on validating existing capabilities, must be large enough in scope and size to exercise multiple activities and warrant involvement from multiple jurisdictions and disciplines and non -governmental organizations, and take into account the needs and requirements for individuals with disabilities. Exercise scenarios should align with objectives and capabilities identified in the Multi -year Training and Exercise Plan. Special Event Planning. If a State or Urban Area will be hosting a special event (e.g., Super Bowl, G-8 Summit), the special event planning should be considered as a training or exercise activities for the purpose of the Multi -Year Training and Exercise Plan.. The State or Urban Area should plan to use SHSP or UASI funding to finance training and exercise activities in preparation for those events. States and Urban Areas should also consider exercises at major venues (e.g., arenas, convention centers) that focus on evacuations, communications, and command and control. States should also anticipate participating in at least one Regional Exercise annually. States must include all confirmed or planned special events in the Multi -year Training and Exercise Plan. • Exercise Evaluation and Improvement. Exercises should evaluate performance of the objectives and capabilities required to respond to the exercise scenario. Guidance related to exercise evaluation and improvement planning is defined in the Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program located at httAs:/%hseeo. dhs. oov. • Self -Sustaining Exercise Programs. States are expected to develop a self- sustaining exercise program. A self-sustaining exercise program is one that is successfully able to implement, maintain, and oversee the Multi -year Training and Exercise Plan, including the development and delivery of HSGP-funded exercises. The program must utilize a multi -disciplinary approach to the development and delivery of exercises, and build upon existing plans, training, and equipment. Role of Non -Governmental Entities in Exercises. Non -governmental participation in all levels of exercises is strongly encouraged. Leaders from non- governmental entities should be included in the planning, conduct, and evaluation of an exercise. State, local, Tribal, and territorial jurisdictions are encouraged to develop exercises that test the integration and use of non- governmental resources provided by non -governmental entities, defined as the private sector and private non-profit, faith -based, community, disability, volunteer, and other non -governmental organizations.

The Worksheet is available at.www.fema.govlorants along with the FY 2011 HSGP Guidance materials. Multi -Applicant Investments States, territories, and Urban Areas may propose Multi -Applicant Investments, which represent a shared interest between two or more States and territories, or a shared interest between two or more Urban Areas, as one (or more) of their 15 Investment submissions. Urban Areas cannot submit a Multi -Applicant Investment in partnership with the State in which they are located. Each participating State or Urban Area must outline the specific components of the Multi -Applicant Investment for which it would be responsible and include that Investment in its own submission. For FY 2011, the Multi - Applicant Investments will continue to be evaluated like other Investments as part of the review process, but will not incorporate a bonus point structure. Like last year, the FY 2011 HSGP Multi -Applicant submission process will require Multi - Applicant partners to identify a submitting partner who will only be required to initiate the Multi -Applicant Investment within the GIRT by providing the Investment name(s) and the names of all partners. Once initiated, all partners will independently complete all sections of their Multi -Applicant Investment. Submitting partners should initiate the Multi -Applicant process early enough to allow all partners to complete their own Investments on time. 83 FY 2011 HSGP Investment Justification Outline ponse b'yrl nf% MENIvW06 fls ip ' n'"�if$'h - "c- { - " �x-x x N,y"�y; y '4F . .... 0.{yy Kh.. %.sYw .:a .N 4", T::....h3ti'OF xd d5r ' :" ».� •. _ _ Describe howiho spectrum oftemorism anti MIMI hazard dsksthattle StatelleniloryiUrban Area faces influenced the development of this kiwArrenl Narrative 1 Jrstlficationto Include all hrvsstments.
