Please be advised, all projects require an Environmental and Historic Preservation review. Your project has been reviewed and it has been determined to have no potential impact to environmental or historic concerns. No further EHP review is required unless you modify the project and it is approved by AZDOHS. If you need further clarification please contact Michael Stidham at (602) 542-7041 or mstidhann@azdohs.gov with AZDOHS for further information regarding the EHP specific requirements for your award. As stated in the subrecipient agreement: The subrecipient shall comply with Federal EHP regulations, laws and Executive Orders as applicable. Subrecipients proposing projects that have the potential to impact the environment, including but not limited to construction of communication towers, modification or renovation of existing buildings, structures and facilities, or new construction including replacement of facilities, must participate in the DHS/FEMA EHP review process. The EHP review process involves the submission of a detailed project description that explains the goals and objectives of the proposed project along with supporting documentation so that DHS/FEMA may determine whether the proposed project has the potential to impact environmental resources and/or historic properties. In some cases, DHS/FEMA is also required to consult with other regulatory agencies and the public in order to complete the review process. The EHP review process must be completed before funds are released to carry out the proposed project. DHS/FEMA will not fund projects that are initiated without the required EHP review. Additionally, all recipients are required to comply with DHS/FEMA EHP Policy Guidance. This EHP Policy Guidance can be found in FP 108-023-1, Environmental Planning and Historic Preservation Policy Guidance. 1700 West Washington Street Suite 210 Phoenix, Arizona 85007 Office: (602) 542-7013 Fax: (602) 542-1729 www.azdohs.gov Office of the Chief Financial Officer U.S. Department of Homeland Security Division of Financial Assistance Policy and Oversight Washington, DC 20528 4SV sf"r4 c% Homeland 4,W," Security August 29, 2017 GRANT ALERT 17-06 SUPERSEDE — FY 2017 — DHS General Terms and Conditions This Grant Alert notice is being transmitted to all DHS Financial Assistance Awarding Offices.
