RE: STAG grants <br />(3) <br />THIS MESSAGE HAS BEEN SCANNED FOR KNOWN VIRUSES <br />From: Newby, Darek <br />To: 'pthames28@netscape.net' <br />Cc: gwilder@co.orange.nc.us <br />Subject: RE: STAG grants <br />Date: Wed, 15 Mar 2006 09:45:27 -0500 <br />I'm not certain what the general STAG requirements are, other than that the projects be focused on water and <br />wastewater infrastructure. But in terms of what EPA will look at, other than its general eligibility requirements for <br />STAG projects, the language from the VA/HUD bills themselves leave a fair amount of flexibility on how you target <br />the funding to water and wastewater infrastructure projects. Does that answer your question? <br />From: pthames28@netscape.net [mailto:pthames28@netscape.net] <br />sent: Wednesday, March 15, 2006 9:00 AM <br />To: Newby, Darek <br />cc: gwilder@co.orange.nc.us <br />subject: STAG grants <br />Darek, <br />I appologize if you have already received and replied to this email, originally sent out from my <br />Orange County email account, however the County email system appears to be fried and I cannot <br />determine if emails sent in the last week have actually gone out. Likewise, the only emails getting <br />back through appear to be spam. <br />Greg Wilder forwarded me your email containing the attachments containing the references to the <br />two STAG's that Rep. Price obtained for Orange County. This information has been very helpful <br />and we certainly appreciate your efforts. To date, these two references are all that we (Orange <br />County and the NC Construction Loans and Grants Section) have been able to obtain that include <br />any project description for the STAG's. One final point of clarification, though: is it your <br />understanding or belief that this project description language -basically "wastewater infrastructure <br />needs" and "water and wastewater infrastructure improvements" - is all there is for the EPA to <br />utilize in its determination of whether Orange County's final project meets the overall intent of the <br />STAG funding? <br />Thanks for you help. <br />Paul Thames <br />»> Newby, Darek 3/8/2006 10:41:32 AM »> <br />Reseeding with the attachment this time. <br />From: Newby, Darek <br />Sent: Wednesday, March 08, 2006 10:41 AM <br />To: `gwilder@co.orange.nc.us' <br />Cc: Russell, Dave; Auman, Rose <br />Subject: STAG grants <br />Greg <br />Per our phone conversation, I am attaching a PDF file of the page containing the Orange <br />County STAG earmark from the FY03 VA, HUD, and Independent Agencies Appropriations <br />conference report, followed by the page containing the Orange County STAG earmark from the <br />FY05 conference report. <br />In addition to the normal requirements for the STAG program, EPA will look at this report language <br />http://m02.mail.netscape.com/15106/nc/en-us/MaiUdisplay-message.aspx 3/15/2006 <br />
