Round 15 FPS - this Friday

[Diane E]

FYI -- Round 15 of the Fire Prevention and Safety grants will be announced Friday. Keep in mind that Congress is on District work status, so you may not hear from them if the person you deal with for grants is from the DC office, they may be on vacation.

Diane, you beat me to the punch by a keystroke. I will confirm what she is saying. Anyone who has never heard about your 2005 Fire Prevention Grant should check your 1199A form for an 05 FP award # and stay tuned for Friday morning and offcial announcement. Well, at least it will be a little good news for those waiting for word on AFG 06.

Kurt,

Probabaly grants that were refused and they have money left or returned to them at this point.

Is this just the FPS, or should we expect another round of AFG?
We were told that our 05 grant did not make the cut off for funding, but that if they identified additional funding, they would consider funding. Almost 30 days ago (July 11th) we were sent 12 questions and a request for a 1199. Still no award announced, but it looks like it is on the way. Apparently they have identified additional money.

Tlagow, got word this morning that the 1st round of the 2005 AFG supplemental awards will be announced on Friday as well. I guess they figured they should get some award sout, even if they are from last year, to extinguish the fires that are raging from the 2006 AFG awards being delayed. Good luck to you and everyone that still has their fingers crossed.
