II. Background and Purpose
Proposed to streamline justice funding and grant administration, the Recovery Act:
Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) Program allows states, tribes,
and local governments to support a broad range of activities to prevent and control crime
based on their own local needs and conditions. JAG blends previous Byrne Formula and
Local Law Enforcement Block Grant (LLEBG) Programs to provide agencies with the
flexibility to prioritize and place justice funds where they are most needed.
III. Disparate Certification
Jurisdictions certified as disparate must submit a joint application for the aggregate of
funds allocated to them, specifying the amount of funds that are to be distributed to each
of the units of local government and the purposes for which the funds will be used, and
indicating who will serve as the applicant/fiscal agent for the joint funds. The above
jurisdictions are certified as disparate.
