Sec.  230.21  Implementation of the program.

    (a) The Urban and Community Forestry Assistance Program is 
implemented through the Forest Service Grants, Cooperative Agreements, 
and Other Agreements Program (FSM 1580) and the Grants, Cooperative 
Agreements, and Other Agreements Handbook (FSH 1509.11). The Forest 
Service Manual and Handbook are available from the Forest Service 
internet homepage or at National Forest offices.
    (b) The Forest Service, under the authority of the Cooperative 
Forestry Assistance Act of 1978 and through the Urban and Community 
Forestry Assistance Program, coordinates financial, technical, and 
related assistance with the Natural Resources Conservation Service for 
the Urban Resources Partnership initiative. The Natural Resources 
Conservation Service provides similar assistance through the Urban 
Resources Partnership initiative under the authority of the Soil 
Conservation and Domestic Allotment Act (16 U.S.C. 590a-590f). The Urban 
Resources Partnership is an initiative in which Federal agencies, in 
cooperation with State and local agencies, community groups, and non-
governmental organizations endeavor to be more effective, responsive, 
and efficient in working together to protect, improve, and rehabilitate 
the environment in urban areas of the Nation. The Forest Service and 
Natural Resources Conservation Service implement the Urban Resources 
Partnership initiative under the ``Urban Resources Partnership National 
Guidance for U.S. Department of Agriculture Personnel'' and applicable 
agency and departmental procedures for Federal grants and cooperative 
agreements. Copies of the Guidance may be obtained from the Cooperative 
Forestry Staff, Forest Service, USDA, P.O. Box 96090, Washington, DC 
20090-6090.
