§319 Project Application Guide

Introduction

In 1987 Congress established the Nonpoint Source (NPS) Management Program under Section 319 of the Clean Water Act to help states address nonpoint source water pollution. The Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) has administered an NPS Program since 1989.

Each year the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) uses a congressional appropriation to fund states with approved NPS Management Programs and a record of satisfactory performance.

State grants can be used to fund eligible surface and ground water projects. DEQ assigns a higher priority to those projects that target reducing specific pollutant loads in §303(d)-listed waters. The list of those waters can be seen at http://www.deq.idaho.gov/water-quality/surface-water/tmdls/table-of-sbas-tmdls.aspx.

Application

All interested parties are required to submit an application to be eligible to receive funding. An online and hard copy version of the application must be received at DEQ by July 13, 2018. The application login page is located at http://apps.deq.idaho.gov/water/319G2017/Default.aspx.

Prior to submitting an application to DEQ the applicant should introduce the project to the watershed advisory group (WAG) that has primary jurisdiction over the watershed in which the project will be located. The WAG will thoroughly vet the project and provide its results and recommendation on funding the project to DEQ

DEQ will review the application and make a determination on whether the project is technically complete. Only those applications that are found to be technically complete advance to the local basin advisory group (BAG) for their funding recommendations. DEQ will notify all applicants of technically complete applications to arrange a time for them to present their project to the BAG. Following the presentations the BAG will discuss the merits of the projects and other findings before announcing the projects they recommend funding for in the new fiscal year.

Information provided in support of an application that DEQ finds to be over and above what is reasonable and necessary to make a funding recommendation may not be reviewed or otherwise used by DEQ to reach its funding decisions. The unsolicited information will not be returned to the applicant or their representatives.

§319 Project Application Guide

Email: The primary organization email address from which the organization will transact most of its’ project-related business. Ensure the address is accurate by reentering it in the Confirm Email field.

Physical Address (sponsor): The address at which the organization’s general mail is delivered. The address entered here should be the one DEQ can use to contact the organization in person.

Postal Code: Enter the 5- or 9-digit postal code used by the organization to transact its daily mail.

Field Officer: The field officer is the person designated by the organization as being responsible for the day-to-day activities taking place on the site of the project. These responsibilities will often include, for example, overseeing project work on-site and managing and accounting for all project timelines and budgets. The field officer is the person DEQ will be directed to with questions about on-site activities and to provide information on the project. (Note: The field officer is generally not the same person as the one who has Signature Authority on behalf of the organization.)

Phone number (with area code): Enter the primary phone number that should be used to contact the field officer during normal business hours.

Location of ProjectPrimary County (within which the majority of the BMPs will be implemented): With most projects the greater amount of the work takes place in one county. Use the drop-down list to select the primary county that applies to your project.

Other Affected Counties: If your project work plan projects implementation activities taking place in counties in addition to the primary, using the drop-down list select and enter the additional counties.

Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC): The HUC is an 8-digit set of numbers assigned by the US Geological Survey to represent and identify specific watershed sub basins in the United States. In the adjacent open field on the form enter the HUC for the watershed. If you are unsure of the 8-digit HUC that includes your project, click on the underlined My HUC? wording and follow the steps provided.

Latitude and Longitude (decimal): The decimal coordinates that represent the latitude and longitude of the project work site must be entered in the respective open fields. A link to the right of the fields can assist you in finding the coordinates for your site.

The description, when used together with the coordinates of the site, should help narrow a person’s focus to the smaller area of a job site, rather than the larger area that by using map coordinates alone is a likely to result.

TMDL Name / Description

7

§319 Project Application Guide

In the field that follows provide the name of the TMDL and a description of how the proposed project will aid the effort to meet the specific pollutant load reductions called for in the TMDL. For help with identifying your TMDL click on the Find My TMDL link shown to the right of the heading. Contact DEQ if you have a question about TMDLs or implementation plans for waters found in the region. Reference the DEQ Contact Information provided at the end of this guidance for a complete list of DEQ regional office locations and the people responsible for implementing the §319 Program in those regions.

Expected Outcome and BenefitsDescribe the outcome and benefits the waterbody is expected to receive once the project has been completed. Provide information on the outcomes and benefits that will be realized after the project’s goals and objectives have been met and the project has been completed. Examples include benefits to fish populations, increased recreational opportunities, civic value, improved habitat for waterfowl production, etc.

Tracking Project ResultsDescribe the procedure that will be used during implementation and after to evaluate progress and to determine success. Include a description of the type and frequency of oversight the subgrantee (or delegated representative) will conduct over the time the project is being implemented and afterwards to evaluate the best management practices (BMPs) that were installed as part of the project.

Estimated Total Project FundingProvide an estimate of the total cost of the project as set forth in its workplan, in terms of match contributions and §319 grant funds. A minimum of 40% of the amount of §319 funding requested must come from qualified sources and must meet the eligibility criteria set forth for matching funds. Provide the names of businesses, non-profit groups, residents and others who have willfully and openly agreed to contribute match to the project.

Know that most funds that originate in other federal coffers are generally not eligible to be accounted for as match on a §319 project. Also ineligible are funds that had been previously accounted for and used as match on a different project.

Project DetailsWater body Type: Use the drop-down list to select the type of waterbody that your project would most likely be characterized as being. Base your selection on any sources of information available to you, including your personal knowledge of the waterbody or the knowledge of other qualified professionals.

§319 Project Application Guide

Work Plan—Task CalendarDirections for completing the Work Plan and Task Calendar appear in a box near the top of page 6. The work plan must include the full range of tasks that need to be implemented to successfully complete the project as planned. The maximum length of time to complete a task is 3 years. Each task must include its total cost; represented separately by the amount of 319 funds and match funds that, when combined, equal the total.

Each task must be separately titled and will appear on its own line in the work plan. To complete a task enter the information asked for in each blank data field. For example, in Time Frame Summary, enter information to describe what specific work must be performed over the task timeframe ( Start date – End date ) to complete the task. In Responsible Party, enter the name of the party or individual that agrees to accept responsibility for completing the task. In the fields Approximate Match and Grant Funding Allocations, enter the respective amounts of each that, when combined, totally fund the task. In Task Deliverables include the types of records and documents that will be prepared as part of the project and made available to DEQ upon request to document progress.

After you entered the information, click the link entitled Save this Task. Once the task has been saved it will be displayed in the Task Calendar field at the bottom of the page. Continue by entering all the remaining tasks for the project. When you have finished a list of all the tasks and related information that you entered will be displayed in the Calendar at the bottom of the page.

The information called for on pages 7–11 of the application relates to the costs of the project by budget category: Personnel; Sub contractual; Travel; Supplies, Operating and Equipment; and Indirect. As you enter your costs by budget category a pop-up screen will appear at the top of each page. The screen will display the cost of each category separately, before showing the cumulative total cost of all five budget categories. Be certain that when you finish the total cost of all project tasks in the work plan equal the total of all budget categories. The pop-up screen can be hidden or shown at any time by clicking on the “hide/show” link that appears at the top of the screen.

Budget Category—Project Personnel Costs Start by reviewing the information displayed in the shaded text box at the top of the application, page 7.

Project personnel costs entered in this section are considered direct costs. Direct costs are those costs that can be tied directly to a specific objective/aspect of the project (i.e., compensation of employees for specific time worked on the project). Other personnel costs that cannot easily be allocated to a specific objective are considered to be indirect costs. It should be noted that however a cost is allocated, as either a direct or indirect cost, it must be treated consistently in this manner over the term of the sub grant (i.e., a cost cannot be treated as a direct cost for one project, and indirect for another). Types of direct costs charged to a state sub grant include the compensation and fringe benefits of employees who work specifically on that sub grant and the cost of materials and other items that are incurred for the sub grant. The salaries of administrative and clerical staff would, in most cases, be treated as indirect costs. Wages associated with contracted personnel should be included in the sub contractual category and not included in this budget category (i.e., if wages are part of an applicant

10

§319 Project Application Guide

organization’s payroll include them as project personnel, but if they are hired or are part of another agency’s payroll, list the expense as a contracted service).

For nonprofit organizations the cost of activities performed primarily as a service to members, clients, or the general public that are critical to the organizations mission must be treated as direct costs.

The combined amount of a projects’ personnel costs that are expected to be paid with §319 grant funds cannot exceed 10% of the total amount of §319 funds assigned to the project.

For more information on direct costs, reference 2 CFR 200—Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards.

Budget Category—Sub contractual Cost (Costs that are directly associated to a work plan task.) A subcontract is used most often to assign a specific workload obligated in an existing sub grant to a third party to complete. In the NPS/§319 program subcontracts are routinely used to hire third parties to provide skills and services that are otherwise not available within the organization. Subcontracted costs may, for example, include such things as fees charged to administer a project; engineering and inspection costs; and fees for legal services. Equipment rented or leased specifically for use on a project is another example of a sub contractual cost.

Subcontracted costs must relate to a task in the project work plan. All costs should be checked and verified with the information in the work plan to ensure the expense is eligible for reimbursement.

In this budget category enter separate line items for the services and skills that will be provided under the terms of a negotiated contract, and describe how the services and skills will be used on the project. Be Specific. Enter the total amount of §319 funds and the total amount of matching funds budgeted for each line item.

Refer to the instructions in the shaded text box on the top of page 8 for additional information.

Budget Category—Travel Costs Travel costs are defined as the ordinary and necessary expenses of traveling away from your tax home or duty station for business, profession, or a job. Your tax home is the city or general area where your place of business is located, regardless of where you maintain your family home. Keeping good records of your travel is important for auditing purposes and for pursuing reimbursement of your travel-related expenses.

List and describe the types of travel costs that employees, contractors, and other persons are likely to incur as they work to complete the project. Several types of travel are included in the drop-down list found on page 9. Enter the type of travel and an explanation of why the travel will be needed, the number of trips (indicate round or one-way), and a rate commensurate with the type of travel.

Refer to the instructions in the shaded text box on the top of page 9 for additional information.

11

§319 Project Application Guide

Budget Category—Supplies, Operating, and Equipment CostsSupplies are considered to be tangible personal property, other than equipment, that are necessary to implement the project and that do not exceed $5,000 in cost. A computer, for example, is considered a supply if the cost to acquire it is less than $5,000, and it was purchased exclusively for work committed to in a specific sub grant. Examples of other supplies are waders, work gloves, and shovels needed to plant trees at a work site. Rock, shrubs, and grass seed would also be characterized as being supplies.

Equipment costs are defined as capital expenditures and include tangible property having a useful life of more than 1 year and a per unit acquisition cost equal to or exceeding $5,000. Equipment may include such items as boats, trailers, seed drills, and all-terrain vehicles, for example, to the extent they are necessary to implement the project. For each equipment entry provide a level of detail sufficient to explain how it will be used on the project. This budget category should not include expenditures for renting equipment or the cost of operating it.

Operating costs apply to, for example, the cost to operate a piece of rented or leased equipment for use on a project. They can also include the cost of printing brochures and costs incurred for advertising the project. Operating costs can be fixed, for example, such as for the pro-rated share to rent a building to store seasonal equipment or variable, for example, such as the pro-rated share of cell phone and janitorial services.

Enter all costs as separate line items, with each cost related to a category found in the drop-down list. After completing a line click on Add Supplies/Equipment/Operating Cost to List. The information on the line is saved and will appear in a list at the bottom of the page.

Budget Category—Indirect Costs Indirect costs are defined as costs incurred for common or joint purposes within the organization that benefit one or more cost objective or the project. These costs are not readily assignable to specific cost objectives or projects as a direct cost. Common indirect costs include, but are not limited to, salaries of administrative staff, building maintenance and utilities, basic office supplies, rent, and cell phones.

Sub recipients (sub grantees) are allowed to recoup some of the administrative and overhead expenses associated with managing projects in the form of indirect costs. According to new requirements (40 CFR 200.31) the application must include an approved, federally recognized indirect cost rate negotiated between the applicant and the federal government, or if such a rate does not exist either a de minimus indirect cost rate based on modified total direct costs (MTDC), a selected indirect rate of 10% or less, or an indirect rate negotiated between DEQ and the applicant (2 CFR 200).

MTDC are all direct salaries and wages; applicable fringe benefits; materials and supplies; services; travel; and sub grants/sub contracts up to the first $25,000 of each sub grant/sub contract. These costs exclude equipment, capital expenditures, rental costs, and the portion of each sub grant/sub contract in excess of $25,000.

To determine your project’s indirect budget answer yes/no to the question—does your organization have an approved federally recognized indirect cost rate? — and then, based on your response, answer the questions that follow.

12

§319 Project Application Guide

If your organization has a federally recognized indirect rates answer “yes,” and enter the rate in the box that follows. Hit continue and the maximum amount of indirect cost calculated at that rate appears in the corresponding box. At this point you can also split the total into §319 and match shares. Verify your rate by submitting a copy of your approved, federally recognized indirect rate agreement with the signed hard copy of your application.

If you answered “no,” you may choose to accept the 10% de minimus indirect rate. If you accept the de minimus rate confirm your acceptance by checking the box. The 10% rate is calculated and applied to your application based on the information that was entered in previous budget categories. The §319 indirect budget will appear in the line below. You can edit the indirect amount by entering a portion of the total to be budgeted as qualifying match. Ensure the total amount of indirect cost balances, before leaving the page.

A final option allows you to answer “no” to both questions. Answering in this manner requires you to contact DEQ and arrange a meeting to begin negotiating an indirect rate that complies with the regulatory requirements and is acceptable to both parties. If you select this option you will be asked to submit a formal cost allocation plan and then to contact DEQ to negotiate a rate. Under this approach a rate must be negotiated and agreed to prior to the expiration of the application submittal period.

Matching SourcesLocal contributions (commonly referred to as match) must equal or exceed 40% of the amount of §319 funding being requested in the application. Match can be in the form of cash (hard match), the dollar value of a service called for in the work plan and later implemented by a qualified source (in-kind match), or as the actual cost of supplies, materials, or equipment contributed to the project (soft match). Match can be all one type, or can be any combination of the three. The application asks you to list the sources of the match. A source, in this case, is the individual or party donating the match. For example, a landowner or a local business or nonprofit group may be a source of match. Enter each source on a separate line and include the actual or estimated dollar value of their contribution. To qualify as match, the origin of the funding contributed or the value of goods or services to be provided cannot have originated from a federal funding source. To be eligible, too, any match contributed cannot have been used as match on a different federally funded project. For questions regarding match eligibility contact your DEQ regional office (see DEQ contact information, attached).

Enter the match source, type and amount and click on Add Match Source to List.

Letters of SupportApplicants are required to provide documentation that confirms their proposal has the support of residents who reside, or are property owners, in the watershed. For example, letters may be from area residents, local government officials, civic and environmental organizations, industry and trade associations, and others. To qualify all letters must be signed and recently dated. Projects having large, diverse support bases will often receive greater attention from the funding authorities, which in turn may influence their decisions on which projects to fund.

Sources that had agreed to contribute match should also submit signed and dated letters acknowledging their support of the project, and the amount and type of funds or services they agreed to provide.

13

§319 Project Application Guide

Signature AuthoritySignature Authority Name: Enter the full name of the person authorized to enter into a legally binding sub grant on behalf of the organization. The name entered will be understood to be the person responsible for the expenditure of project funds and for completing the project under the terms of the sub grant.

Signature Authority Title: Enter the official title (e.g., XXX Board Chairman, XXSWCD Administrator) of the person having signature authority on the project.

Signature Authority Phone: Enter the telephone number at which the person having signature authority can be contacted during normal business hours.

Project Reporting All parties receiving §319 project sub grants are expected to routinely contact their DEQ regional office and the local WAG to report on the progress that has been made on their project. A schedule of WAG meeting dates is available at your DEQ regional office.

Important DatesThe following is a list of key dates in the project application timeline. In some cases, a date range is provided to allow for scheduling flexibility.

April 23, 2018: The date the application period opens. To start a new application, go to http://apps.deq.idaho.gov/water/319G2017/Default.aspx.

July 13, 2018: The last day to submit a complete 2019 project application. August 6–24, 2018: DEQ staff review each project application to determine if it is

technically complete. Only technically complete applications will advance in the funding process.

September 7, 2018: DEQ distributes a review copy of each application to the BAG with jurisdiction over the watershed in which the project is to be located.

October 1–November 10, 2018: DEQ regional office staff will schedule a date and location for the respective BAG to meet and rank the project applications received from within the basin. Weeks before the meeting, DEQ will contact project representatives to request that short project overviews are developed and presented to the BAG. Dates and locations will be scheduled. After the overviews are presented, the BAG discusses the projects and prioritizes the order in which they recommend the projects be funded. The recommendations are to be made by silent ballot using the information presented to them and taking into account the water quality priorities in the basin and the amount of funding the applicant requested.

December 29, 2018: Using the BAG’s recommendations and information on the amount of federal funding it expects to receive in 2019, DEQ prepares a list of the projects recommended to fund. The draft list is sent to the DEQ regional offices with a request that they review the rankings and respond with either their agreement or objection to the outcome. If an objection is cast, DEQ will pursue an alternate course of action until a final agreement can be reached on which projects to fund.

January–March 2019: DEQ uses information from its sources to compile the 2018 NPS/§319 Program Annual Performance and Progress Report.

14

§319 Project Application Guide

April 30, 2019: The final Performance and Progress Report and the grant application package are forwarded to the DEQ director for review and approval.
