Disparate Certification
A disparate allocation occurs when a city or municipality is scheduled to receive one and one-half times (150 percent) more than a
county with concurrent jurisdiction, while that county bears more than 50 percent of the costs associated with prosecution or
incarceration of the municipality's Part 1 violent crime. Multiple disparate allocations occur when multiple cities or municipalities are
collectively eligible to receive four times (400 percent) more than the county.
JAG disparate jurisdictions are certified by the Director of the Bureau of Justice Assistance(BJA), based in part on input from the

SPECIAL CONDITIONS
1. Requirements of the award; remedies for non-compliance or for materially false statements
The conditions of this award are material requirements of the award. Compliance with any assurances or certifications
submitted by or on behalf of the recipient that relate to conduct during the period of performance also is a material
requirement of this award. By signing and accepting this award on behalf of the recipient,the authorized recipient
official accepts all material requirements of the award, and specifically adopts all such assurances or certifications as if
personally executed by the authorized recipient official.
Failure to comply with any one or more of these award requirements-- whether a condition set out in full below,a
condition incorporated by reference below, or an assurance or certification related to conduct during the award period-
-may result in the Office of Justice Programs("OJP")taking appropriate action with respect to the recipient and the
award. Among other things,the OJP may withhold award funds, disallow costs, or suspend or terminate the award.
The U.S. Department of Justice("DOJ"), including OJP, also may take other legal action as appropriate.
Any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement to the federal government related to this award(or concealment
or omission of a material fact)may be the subject of criminal prosecution (including under 18 U.S.C. 1001 and/or 1621,
and/or 34 U.S.C. 10271-10273), and also may lead to imposition of civil penalties and administrative remedies for false
claims or otherwise(including under 31 U.S.C. 3729-3730 and 3801-3812).
Should any provision of a requirement of this award be held to be invalid or unenforceable by its terms,that provision
shall first be applied with a limited construction so as to give it the maximum effect permitted by law. Should it be
held, instead,that the provision is utterly invalid or-unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed severable from this
award.
2. Applicability of Part 200 Uniform Requirements
The Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements in 2 C.F.R. Part 200,as adopted
and supplemented by DOJ in 2 C.F.R. Part 2800(together,the "Part 200 Uniform Requirements")apply to this FY
2019 award from OJP.
The Part 200 Uniform Requirements were first adopted by DOJ on December 26, 2014. If this FY 2019 award
supplements funds previously awarded by OJP under the same award number(e.g., funds awarded during or before
December 2014),the Part 200 Uniform Requirements apply with respect to all funds under that award number
(regardless of the award date,and regardless of whether derived from the initial award or a supplemental award)that
are obligated on or after the acceptance date of this FY 2019 award.
For more information and resources on the Part 200 Uniform Requirements as they relate to OJP awards and subawards
("subgrants"), see the OJP website at https://ojp.gov/funding/Part200UniformRequirements.htm.

recipient is to contact OJP promptly for clarification.

set forth at 34 U.S.C. 10152,the BJA Director certifies that extraordinary and exigent circumstances exist,making such
expenditures essential to the maintenance of public safety and good order.
64. Authorization to obligate(federal)award funds to reimburse certain project costs incurred on or after October 1,2018
The recipient may obligate(federal)award funds only after the recipient makes a valid acceptance of the award. As of
the first day of the period of performance for the award(October 1, 2018),however, the recipient may choose to incur
project costs using non-federal funds,but any such project costs are incurred at the recipient's risk until, at a
minimum--(1)the recipient makes a valid acceptance of the award, and(2)all applicable withholding conditions are
removed by OJP(via a Grant Adjustment Notice). (A withholding condition is a condition in the award document that
precludes the recipient from obligating,expending,or drawing down all or a portion of the award funds until the
condition is removed.)
Except to the extent(if any)that an award condition expressly precludes reimbursement of project costs incurred"at-
risk," if and when the recipient makes a valid acceptance of this award and OJP removes each applicable withholding
condition through a Grant Adjustment Notice,the recipient is authorized to obligate(federal)award funds to reimburse
itself for project costs incurred"at-risk"earlier during the period of performance(such as project costs incurred prior to
award acceptance or prior to removal of an applicable withholding condition),provided that those project costs
otherwise are allowable costs under the award.
Nothing in this condition shall be understood to authorize the recipient(or any subrecipient at any tier)to use award
funds to "supplant" State or local funds in violation of the recipient's certification(executed by the chief executive of
the State or local government)that federal funds will be used to increase the amounts of such funds that would, in the
absence of federal funds,be made available for law enforcement activities.
65. Use of funds for DNA testing; upload of DNA profiles
If award funds are used for DNA testing of evidentiary materials,any resulting eligible DNA profiles must be uploaded
to the Combined DNA Index System ("CODIS,"the DNA database operated by the FBI)by a government DNA
laboratory with access to CODIS.
No profiles generated under this award may be entered or uploaded into any non-governmental DNA database without
prior express written approval from BJA.
Award funds may not be used for the purchase of DNA equipment and supplies unless the resulting DNA profiles may
be accepted for entry into CODIS.
66. Encouragement of submission of"success stories"
BJA strongly encourages the recipient to submit annual(or more frequent)JAG success stories. To submit a success
story, sign in to a My BJA account at https://www.bja.gov/Login.aspx to access the Success Story Submission form. If

Subject: Incorporates NEPA Compliance in Further Developmental Stages for City of Pueblo
The Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant Program (JAG) allows states and local governments to
support a broad range of activities to prevent and control crime and to improve the criminal justice system, some o
which could have environmental impacts. All recipients of JAG funding must assist BJA in complying with NEP)
and other related federal environmental impact analyses requirements in the use of grant funds, whether the funds
are used directly by the grantee or by a subgrantee or third party. Accordingly, prior to obligating funds for any of
the specified activities, the grantee must first determine if any of the specified activities will be funded by the
grant.
The specified activities requiring environmental analysis are:
a. New construction;
b. Any renovation or remodeling of a property located in an environmentally or historically sensitive area,
including properties located within a 100-year flood plain, a wetland, or habitat for endangered species, or a
property listed on or eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places;
c. A renovation, lease, or any proposed use of a building or facility that will either (a) result in a change in its basi
prior use or (b) significantly change its size;
d. Implementation of a new program involving the use of chemicals other than chemicals that are (a) purchased as
an incidental component of a funded activity and (b) traditionally used, for example, in office, household,
recreational, or education environments; and
e. Implementation of a program relating to clandestine methamphetamine laboratory operations, including the
identification, seizure, or closure of clandestine methamphetamine laboratories.
Complying with NEPA may require the preparation of an Environmental Assessment and/or an Environmental
Impact Statement, as directed by BJA. Further, for programs relating to methamphetamine laboratory operations,
the preparation of a detailed Mitigation Plan will be required. For more information about Mitigation Plan
requirements, please see https://www.bja.gov/Funding/nepa.html.
