FY04 Allocations

On February 17, 2004, HUD announced the allocation of the FY2004 HOPWA formula grants to 117 jurisdictions, including 79 cities on behalf of their Eligible Metropolitan Statistical Areas (EMSA) and 38 States, for areas outside of any EMSA in that State. Federal law requires that HOPWA funds awarded under the FY 2004 Appropriations Act be obligated by no later than September 30, 2005, and all such funds expended within five years of the commitment, (i.e. not later than September 30, 2010).

Attachment 1, provides a chart with the FY04 HOPWA formula allocations, grant numbers and grantee operating start dates. The numbering of each grant is slightly revised to the new federal fiscal year. This continues past practices employed since 1998, in not using the two digits that represented specific field office numbers in numbering state grants with the number F999 and the cities beginning with F001 within each State, and continuing the number used for that city in the prior year.

The 11 new grants are added to this list: Bridgeport, CT; Augusta, GA; Gaithersburg, MD; Cambridge, MA; Worchester, MA; Warren, MI; Jackson, MS; Camden, NJ; and Poughkeepsie, NY and the States of Iowa and Maryland.

- Overview
- Racial and Ethnic Data

HOPWA awards are made to the largest city in the EMSA (eligible metropolitan statistical area) and the city grantees are required to serve eligible persons living anywhere within that EMSA (24 CFR 574.120). The State grantee receives an allocation based on AIDS cases in the areas of the State that are outside of any EMSA. The State grantee should serve clients for these areas, although the regulations also allow the State to carry out activities anywhere within the State, including within an EMSA (24 CFR 574.3 definition of Eligible State) and may be coordinating the use of other resources that address needs appropriately throughout the State.
