              TITLE 36--PARKS, FORESTS, AND PUBLIC PROPERTY
 
      CHAPTER I--NATIONAL PARK SERVICE, DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR
 
PART 72--URBAN PARK AND RECREATION RECOVERY ACT OF 1978--Table of Contents
 
       Subpart C--Grants for Recovery Action Program Development, 
                      Rehabilitation and Innovation
 
Sec. 72.33  Timing and duration of projects.

    (a) Construction components of projects must be initiated during the 
first full construction season following grant approval. The time for 
completing construction components of either Rehabilitation or 
Innovation proposals will be limited to three years or three 
construction seasons, whichever is greater, unless in the opinion of the 
Director an extension of time not to exceed a designated period will 
assure that completion of the grant objectives will be cost-effective 
within funding currently available, in accord with established goals of 
the UPARR Program, and of benefit to the federal government. Any 
component of an Innovation proposal which is to provide services or 
programs, must be started within one year from grant approval. The grant 
project term and expiration date for Rehabilitation and Innovation 
proposals will be established by NPS at the time of grant approval.
    (b) When an applicant wishes to complete a project in a number of 
stages, the applicant may request UPARR assistance for all the stages in 
a single application or proposal. In such cases, the three year limit on 
construction still applies. If an applicant wishes to request funding 
for only a single stage at time, each stage must be structured in such a 
manner that it will increase the recreation utility of the property, or 
provide direct recreation opportunities, independent of subsequent 
stages. Funding of one stage of a multi-staged proposal in no way 
implies that subsequent stages will also be funded.

    (c) Supplemental grants to existing innovation grants may be 
approved by the Director.
