Sec. 65.5  How will applications be evaluated?



    (a) The Director shall evaluate applications through the officers 

and employees, and experts and consultants engaged by the Director for 

that purpose. The Director's first level of evaluation will be for 

technical merit and shall take into account, among other pertinent 

factors, the significance of the project, the qualifications and 

competency of the project director and proposed staff (including the 

ability to manage complex training programs), the adequacy of selection 

criteria for trainees for the project, the adequacy of the detailed 

training plan including provision for hands-on training, the adequacy of 

the applicant's resources available for the project, the amount of grant 

funds necessary for completion of its objectives, and how well the 

projects meet training criteria in OSHA's Hazardous Waste Operations and 

Emergency Response Regulation (29 CFR 1910.120) and/or how well they 

cover the target populations listed in Sec. 65.1(b). A second level of 

review will be conducted for program relevance.

    (b) Within the limits of funds available, the Director may award 

training grants to carry out those projects which have satisfied the 

requirements of the regulations of this part; are determined by the 

Director to be technically meritorious; and in the judgment of the 

Director best promote the purposes of the grant programs authorized by 

section 126(g) of the SARA or section 118 of the HMTA, the regulations 

of this part, and program priorities.
