Intergovernmental Review Instructions for Region 2 Applicants

Projects in New York and New Jersey

Each applicant for EPA Region 2 funding that impacts New York or New Jersey must submit their application to the relevant State, County, and Areawide reviewing agencies that participate in this program.

At a minimum, your application should be submitted to the listed agency in your county and other counties impacted. Projects that impact New Jersey must also be submitted to the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection. Please note that the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation has waived its right to review. Please refer to the list of counties participating in the review process.

You should send the reviewing agencies a letter or email (if accepted) transmitting your application review package. Also include the first page of the application (SF-424), a project summary describing the activities proposed to be funded, and a signed "Certification of Distribution of Application Review Package" form.

A signed original of the letter form also needs to be included with the application review package you send to EPA. Some of the agencies may request additional information as well. Please be sure to give the agencies a deadline for comments (at least 30 days from the day they receive the application). Comments should be sent directly to EPA at the following address:

Mr. Roch Baamonde, Chief
Grants and Contracts Management Branch
