<br />FY05 HOMELAND SECURITY GRANT PROGRAM - VERSION 2.0. 12-22-2004 <br /> <br />. Inclusion of additional jurisdictions will not lead to increased funding for the <br />urban area <br />. Training, planning, organizing, and exercising projects can be implemented <br />as regional projects with or without a change to the urban area. <br /> <br />4. Updating POCs. Any updates or changes to any state, core city(ies), or core <br />county(ies) POC information should be submitted to the assigned ODP <br />Preparedness Officer. <br /> <br />Newlv Identified UASI Urban Areas <br />For newly identified UASI urban areas in FY05, the SM must comply with the following <br />requirements: <br /> <br />1. Requirements for HSGP Application Submission (refer to page 15, application <br />requirements for newly identified UASI urban areas). <br />. Identify SM, Core City(ies), and Core County(ies) POCs <br />. Define the urban area <br />. Establish the UAWG <br /> <br />2. Conduct an Urban Area Assessment. Newly identified urban areas receiving <br />funding under this initiative may use previously collected assessment data from the <br />2003 State Homeland Security Assessment and Strategy Program, which in turn will <br />guide development of an Urban Area Homeland Security Strategy. <br /> <br />3. Develop an Urban Area Homeland Security Strategy. Newly identified urban <br />areas receiving funding under this initiative must develop a comprehensive Urban <br />Area Homeland Security Strategy. This strategy must be developed jointly by all <br />units of government in the defined urban area and meet the requirements for a <br />validated Urban Area Homeland Security Strategy as outlined in ODP's Urban Areas <br />Security Initiative Administrator Handbook, which can be found at <br />htto:/ /www.shsasresources.com. <br /> <br />The Urban Area Homeland Security Strategy must be consistent with and supportive <br />of the State Homeland Security Strategy. The state and urban area strategies are <br />not spending plans for the UASI grant funds; rather they should articulate an overall <br />vision for preparedness in the state or urban area, and layout specific goals and <br />objectives which, if achieved, will enable realization of that vision. Additionally, the <br />state, core city(ies), core county(ies) and other urban area jurisdictions should work <br />together to leverage all available funding sources in implementation of the strategy <br />and to include citizens in all aspects of the strategy through their local Citizen Corps <br />Council. <br /> <br />Note: Receipt of all funds is contingent upon submission of a validated Urban Area <br />Homeland Security Assessment and a validated Urban Area Homeland Security <br />Strategy, All Urban Area Homeland Security Strategies must be completed and <br /> <br />DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY I OFFICE FOR DOMESTIC PREPAREDNESS <br /> <br />71 <br /> <br />
