One astute #brownfield grant writer found an inconsistency in the Financial Need section of all three 2013 ARC Guidelines. The following is a clarification that will likely be formalized by EPA HQ into a Frequently Asked Question and post on the HQ Brownfield web page:
Sections V.B.1.b (Financial Need) of the Assessment, RLF and Cleanup Guidelines (pages 29, 21 and 31, respectively) asks for demographic information about the community. The narrative requests that applicant provide Per Capita Income information, however the table format lists Median Household Income as the requested information with the related national figure. It is recommended that applicants provide data for both measures. However applicants will not be penalized in the scoring if only one of the statistics is provided.
