 CHAPTER I--FEDERAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY, DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND 
                                SECURITY
 
PART 152_ASSISTANCE TO FIREFIGHTERS GRANT PROGRAM--Table of Contents
 
Sec.  152.3  Availability of funds.

    (a) Fire departments that have received funding under the Assistance 
to Firefighter Grant Program in previous years are eligible to apply for 
funding in the current year. However, due to our responsibilities under 
this program to assure adequate distribution of awards amongst certain 
types of departments (career, combination and volunteer) and certain 
types of communities (urban, suburban or rural) as well as an equitable 
geographic distribution, we reserve the right to fund or not to fund 
previous recipients of grants under this program in order for us to 
fulfill these responsibilities.
    (b) No applicant can receive more than $750,000 in Federal grant 
funds under this program in any fiscal year.
    (c) No applicant can submit more than one application per fiscal 
year. Applicants that submit multiple applications will have each of 
their applications deemed ineligible.
    (d) The scoring of the applications will determine the distribution 
of the funding across the eligible programs. Notwithstanding anything in 
this part, no more than twenty-five (25) percent of the funds 
appropriated for grants shall be used to assist grant recipients to 
purchase firefighting vehicles and not less than five (5) percent of the 
funds shall be used for fire prevention programs.
    (e) We will not provide assistance under this part for activities 
for which another Federal agency has more specific or primary authority 
to provide assistance for the same purpose. We may disallow or recoup 
amounts that fall within other Federal agency's authority.
