It shall be the responsibility of prospective applicants to obtain an application kit from the appropriate funding agency or grant program.
Each application kit shall include the necessary forms and instructions for completing the grant application.
In the case of direct federal grants, contracts, loans, and loan guarantees, an application for a grant, loan, or loan guarantee or proposal for a contract subject to review by SHPDA or SHCC shall be submitted simultaneously to the SHPDA and the federal funding agency.
In the case of funds made available by the District government under an allotment program subject to review, the state program agency may establish the submission date.
In accordance with 42 CFR 122.408(b), the Secretary of DHHS may, for certain federal funding programs or types of applications, require that applications meet the following requirements:
In the situations described in § 414.5, the SHPDA shall accept the application for review at the time specified by the Secretary of DHHS. Other provisions of the regular review process, including the letter of intent requirement, shall not be modified by the change in application submission date in these situations.
All applicants shall submit five (5) copies of completed applications and any additional supportive materials to the SHPDA. An applicant shall be responsible for verifying the receipt of the application by the SHPDA.
Persons proposing projects for which a certificate of need is required shall submit a letter of intent to the SHPDA at least sixty (60) days prior to submission of their application for review.
Consistent with provisions of the D.C. Certificate of Need Act of 1980 and applicable rules, the letter required by § 414.8 shall contain, in sufficient detail, information that adequately informs the SHPDA of the scope and nature of the project.
