Dear Sirs:
I am pleased to inform you that your Initial Application for
funds under the Emergency Employment Act is approved. Attached
is the signed Grant Agreement, the approved Initial Application
and accompanying documents. You are asked to begin implementing
your program immediately and to hire participants in accordance
with the provisions and regulations of the Act.
We are also attaching a copy of a tentative "Program Guide"
and draft materials relating to "Financial Management Require-
ments for Emergency Employment Grantees". Also provided is a
sample statement you may use if you wish to designate individuals,
other than yourself, to sign invoices and other required documents.
As you know, the narrative description of your program, assur-
ances and back-up data for full funding are more extensive than
that required for the Initial Application. I urge, therefore,
that you move quickly on preparing material for your Application
for Full Funding. Your attention is called to Section 55.10
of the Regulations, which calls for a published notification
of your program and requires the opportunity for comments by
interested parties. The attached "Program Guide" contains
additional information concerning this point and also indicates
that courtesy copies of your Initial Application are to be
sent to other Program Agents in the State (page 39).
Also be alert to the statement on page 24 in the "Program
Guide" which states that "at least one-third of all participants
should be Veterans. ". This reference is to Special Veterans,
as defined in the regulations.
