b. The EHP review process involves the submission of a detailed project description that includes
the entire scope of work, including any alternatives that may be under consideration, along with
supporting documentation so FEMA may determine whether the proposed project has the
potential to impact environmental resources and/or historic properties.
c. The Subrecipient agrees that to receive any federal preparedness funding, all EHP compliance

8. LIMITED ENGLISH PROFICIENCY (CIVIL RIGHTS ACT OF 1964 TITLE VI)
The Subrecipient must comply with the Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VI) prohibition
against discrimination on the basis of national origin, which requires that subrecipients of federal
financial assistance take reasonable steps to provide meaningful access to persons with limited
E nglish proficiency (LEP) to their programs and services. Providing meaningful access for persons
with LEP may entail providing language assistance services, including oral interpretation and written
translation. Executive Order 13166, Improving Access to Services for Persons with Limited English
Proficiency (August 11, 2000), requires federal agencies to issue guidance to recipients, assisting
such organizations and entities in understanding their language access obligations. DHS published
the required recipient guidance in April 2011, DHS Guidance to Federal Financial Assistance
Recipients Regarding Title VI Prohibition against National Origin Discrimination Affecting Limited
E nglish Proficient Persons, 76 Fed. Reg. 21755-21768, (April 18, 2011). The Guidance provides
h elpful information such as how a recipient can determine the extent of its obligation to provide
language services; selecting language services; and elements of an effective plan on language
assistance for LEP persons. For additional assistance and information regarding language access
o bligations, please refer to the DHS Recipient Guidance at https://www.dhs.gov/guidance-published-
help-department-supported-organizations-provide-meaningful-access-people-limited and additional
resources on http://www.lep.aov.
9. NIMS COMPLIANCE
a. The National Incident Management System (NIMS) identifies concepts and principles that answer
how to manage emergencies from preparedness to recovery regardless of their cause, size,
location, or complexity. NIMS provides a consistent, nationwide approach and vocabulary for
m ultiple agencies or jurisdictions to work together to build, sustain, and deliver the core
capabilities needed to achieve a secure and resilient nation.
b. Consistent implementation of NIMS provides a solid foundation across jurisdictions and
d isciplines to ensure effective and integrated preparedness, planning, and response. NIMS
e mpowers the components of the National Preparedness System, a requirement of Presidential
DHS-FEMA-HSGP-SHSP-FFY17 Page 7 of 35 Kittitas County, E18-180
Policy Directive 8, to guide activities within the public and private sector and describes theplanning, organizational activities, equipping, training and exercising needed to build and sustainthe core capabilities in support of the National Preparedness Goal.
I n order to receive FFY 2017 federal preparedness funding, to include HSGP, the Subrecipientwill ensure all NIMS objectives have been initiated and/or are in progress toward completion.NIMS Implementation Objectives are located at https://www.fema.gov/media-
librarv/assets/documetns/130743.

where a nexus to terrorism exists. All supported investments are based on capability targets and
gaps identified during the assessment process.
3. UASI-funded projects must build and sustain the capabilities necessary for high-threat, high-density
