shipyard facility for which a grant is
sought must be in a single geographical
location, located in or near a maritime
community, and may not have more
than 1,200 production employees. 2.
Other Considerations in Making
Awards—In providing grants, the
Administrator shall take into account (a)
the economic circumstances and
conditions of the maritime community
near to which a shipyard facility is
located; (b) projects that would be
effective in fostering efficiency,
competitive operations, and quality ship
construction, repair, and
reconfiguration; and (c) projects that
would be effective in fostering employee
skills and enhancing productivity.
Matching Requirements: (1) Except as
provided in item (2) below, Federal
funds for any eligible project shall not
exceed 75 percent of the total cost of
such project. The remaining portion of
the cost shall be paid in funds from or
on behalf of the awardee. The applicant
will be required to submit detailed
financial statements and any necessary
supporting documentation
demonstrating how and when such
matching requirement is proposed to be
funded. (2) Exceptions—If the
Administrator determines that a
proposed project merits support and
cannot be undertaken without a higher
percentage of Federal financial
assistance, the Administrator may
award a grant for such project with a
lesser matching requirement than is
described in item (1). (3) Unless waived
for good cause, the awardee’s matching
requirement must be paid prior to
payment of any federal funds for the
project.
Application: An application should
be filed on standard Form SF–424
which can be found on the internet at
Marad.dot.gov. Although the form is
available electronically, we request that
the application be filed in hard copy as
indicated below due to the amount of
information requested. A shipyard
facility may include multiple projects in
one application. In order to allow us to
evaluate whether an applicant meets the
statutory criteria, the application for a
grant should also provide the following
information as an addendum to Form
SF–424:

production employees, but less than
1,200 production employees.
3. A comprehensive detailed
description of the project.
4. A description of the need for the
project and an explanation of how the
project will fulfill this need.

6. A detailed itemization of the cost
of the project together with supporting

for implementing the project.

elements and cost of each if funding for
entire project is not available.

or compiled financial statements.
10. Detailed pro forma financial
statements together with any supporting
documentation demonstrating how and
when such matching requirement is
proposed to be funded.

authority to carry out the proposed

arrangements that can be used to
supplement or leverage the federal grant
assistance.

the Department of Transportation’s
regulation restricting lobbying, 49 CFR

will not, make any prohibited payments
out of the requested grant.
Additional information may be
requested as deemed necessary by the
Maritime Administration in order to
facilitate and complete its review of the
application. If such information is not
provided, the Maritime Administration
may deem the application incomplete
and cease processing it.
Where to File Application: Submit an
original copy and seven additional
copies of the application to Jean E.

Business and Workforce Development,
Room W21–318, Maritime

terms of how well the project for which
a grant is requested would be effective
in fostering efficiency, competitive
operations, and quality ship
construction, repair, and
reconfiguration. The Administrator will
award grants in his sole discretion in
such amounts and under such
conditions for those projects he
determines will best further the
statutory purposes of the small shipyard
grant program.
Conditions Attached to Awards: The
grant agreement will set out the records
to be maintained by the awardee which
must be available for review and audit
by the Administrator, as well as any
other conditions and requirements.

certification, has not been convicted of
a criminal offense under the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, and has not,

compromise that has been approved by
the Internal Revenue Service and is not
in default, or the assessment is the
subject of a non-frivolous administrative
or judicial proceeding.
