Eligibility: Funds are allocated by a formula based on information received from the latest census and the State's urbanized area as compared to the urbanized area of "all" states.

Amounts Available: Approximately $5.5 million annually. 

Match Requirement: Capital - 80% federal; 20% local   Operation - 50% federal; 50% local

Application Period: Annually
