The enclosed Notice of Sub-recipient Award for the 2004 HSGP is being sent to you as the chief elected official for Kerr County. Management of [he FY '04 SHSP, initially administered by the Texas Engineering Extension Service has been moved to the Governor's Division of Emergency Management. In association with the transition, an extension of the grant period was authorized from November 30, 2005 to February 28, 2006 for encumbering costs. The deadline for submitting invoices to GDEM is March 31, 2006. This encumbrance extension allows jurisdictions to order approved equipment that might not have been ordered due to uncertainty when this award would be made to GDEM from the federal Office of Grants and Training (GBT), formerly ODP. All jurisdictions have until Feb. 28, 2006 to encumber funds and order equipment already listed and approved on their equipment list on the DPA website. The intent of the sub-grant is to aid your jurisdiction's ability to enhance its capacity to prevent, respond to and recover from acts of terrorism and catastrophic events. Our Texas Domestic Preparedness Assessment website indicates that Sheriff Rusty Hierholzer is the Point of Contact (POC) for your jurisdiction.

The Notice of Sub-recipient Award must by signed by an individual authorized by the sovernint: board of the iurisdiction or orsanization to accept grants and returned to GDEM in order to activate the grant. At the city and county level, individuals authorized to accept grants may include county judges, mayors, city managers, or chief financial officers. Other signatures will require an accompanying statement from the senior elected official authorizing the individual to sign for the jurisdiction. For agencies and organizations, authorized individuals typically include the Executive Director or Director. In addition, a Direct Deposit Authorization form has been included and is available at the Texas State Comptroller's website: httn://www.window.state.tx.us/taxinfo/taxforms/74-158.pdf.
