Appeal Brief

ApplicantMissouri Emergency Management Agency
Appeal Type1st
Project Number6
Date Signed2010-09-23T00:00:00
• Issue
o The Missouri State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA) submitted an application on behalf of Drury University for the construction of a community safe room. The terms of the HMGP grant approval noted that use of the funds were permitted for design activities and that construction activities were not permitted until FEMA had approved the detailed design. Construction was initiated prior to design approval, and the Grantee was not provided by FEMA the notice to proceed. FEMA Region VII sent a Termination notice and determined that construction costs were ineligible.
• Reason for Denial
o Region VII based the denial of the 1st appeal on the fact that the construction had been initiated prior to design approval by FEMA per terms of the grant and that the construction costs were not eligible.
