A PHYSIOLOGICALLY RELEVANT PRE-CLINICAL DRUG SCREENING PLATFORM FOR ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE AND TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY WITH INTEGRATED STRETCHABLE MICROELECTRODES - ABSTRACT THE PROPOSED WORK AIMS AT THE COMMERCIALIZATION OF A MICROFLUIDIC CHIP-BASED PLATFORM FOR MODELING ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE AND ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE RELATED DEMENTIAS (AD/ADRD) FOR PRECLINICAL IN VITRO MECHANISTIC STUDIES AND DRUG TESTING. AD/ADRD ARE A GROWING HEALTH CONCERN, ACCOUNTING FOR 50-75% OF ALL DEMENTIA CASES, AND CURRENTLY AFFECTING AN ESTIMATED 5.8 MILLION AMERICANS. IN ADDITION TO THE HUMAN SUFFERING, THE ANNUAL COST OF AD/ADRD IS $290 BILLION. CURRENT FDA APPROVED TREATMENTS ONLY HELP MANAGE THE SYMPTOMS OF THE DISEASE. HOWEVER, THERE IS NO TREATMENT TO STOP OR REVERSE ITS PROGRESSION DESPITE HUNDREDS OF CLINICAL TRIALS. A MAJOR OBSTACLE TO SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT DEVELOPMENT IS THE DEARTH OF SUITABLE PRECLINICAL MODELS. IN ADDITION, THERE IS SUBSTANTIAL EPIDEMIOLOGICAL EVIDENCE OF AN INTRICATE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY (TBI), LONGER-TERM AD/ADRD PATHOLOGY, AND COGNITIVE DECLINE. HOWEVER, THE EXACT LINK BETWEEN AD AND TBI IS NOT KNOWN. THIS APPLICATION AIMS TO SOLVE BOTH OF THESE PROBLEMS BY DEVELOPING A NOVEL MICROFLUIDICS- BASED 3D IN VITRO AD MODEL, AND MERGING THIS CHIP WITH BMSEED’S EXISTING IN VITRO TBI MODEL PLATFORM, THE MICROELECTRODE ARRAY STRETCHING STIMULATING UND RECORDING EQUIPMENT (MEASSURE), TO MEET THE NEEDS FOR PRE-CLINICAL AD/ADRD RESEARCH. THIS NEW PLATFORM PRESENTS AN EFFICIENT AND PHYSIOLOGICALLY RELEVANT PRE-CLINICAL DRUG SCREENING PLATFORM FOR AD TREATMENTS. THE PLATFORM IS ALSO WELL-SUITED TO INVESTIGATE THE EFFECTS OF A TBI ON A PERSON WITH OR WITHOUT A PRE-EXISTING GENETIC DISPOSITION TO DEVELOP AD. THE KEY INNOVATIONS ARE THE USE OF A STRETCHABLE MICROELECTRODE ARRAY FOR FUNCTIONAL ASSESSMENT OF NEURONAL HEALTH IN A MICROFLUIDICS DRUG SCREENING PLATFORM, AND THE CAPABILITY TO INVESTIGATE THE MECHANISTIC LINKS AND SIMILARITIES BETWEEN AD AND TBI USING THIS STRETCHABLE MICROELECTRODE ARRAY IN A 3D CELL CULTURE MATRIX (3D-SMEA). THIS 3D-MEASSURE PLATFORM PROVIDES A MORE REALISTIC IN VITRO FACSIMILE OF THE NATURAL IN VIVO BIOCHEMICAL AND BIOMECHANICAL MICROENVIRONMENT OF THE CELLS COMPARED TO EXISTING 2D SYSTEMS. PHASE I IS FOCUSED ON DEMONSTRATING PROOF-OF- CONCEPT (POC) USING A SINGLE-WELL (SW) 3D-MEASSURE PLATFORM WITH CELLS DERIVED FROM GENETICALLY MODIFIED (3XTG, 5XFAD) AND WILD TYPE MICE. PHASE II IS DIRECTED TOWARDS (A) IMPROVING EFFICIENCY BY DEVELOPING A HIGH THROUGHPUT MULTI-WELL (MW) 3D-MEASSURE PLATFORM, AND (B) INCREASING RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL TRANSLATION BY EVALUATING THE PLATFORM USING HUMAN CELLS DERIVED FROM INDUCED-PLURIPOTENT STEM CELLS (HIPSCS) FROM AD PATIENTS AND AGE MATCHED CONTROLS. THE CAPABILITY OF THE 3D-MEASSURE PLATFORM FOR RESEARCH ON THE GENETIC PRE-DISPOSITION TO DEVELOP AD AND THE ROLE OF CROSSTALK BETWEEN DIFFERENT CELL TYPES IN THE BRAIN IN MEDIATING NEURONAL HEALTH AFTER TBI-RELEVANT STRAIN INJURY WILL BE EVALUATED AND VALIDATED. THE FOCUS OF THIS PROPOSAL IS THE DEVELOPMENT OF A PRE-CLINICAL DRUG SCREENING PLATFORM FOR AD/ADRD, HOWEVER, THE PRODUCTS DEVELOPED IN THIS RESEARCH WILL ALSO BE APPLICABLE IN DRUG SCREENING FOR OTHER NEURODEGENERATIVE DISEASES, E.G., PARKINSON’S DISEASE. AT THE END OF PHASE II, THE 3D-MEASSURE PLATFORM WILL BE READY FOR THE MARKETPLACE.

POWER PLANT IMPROVEMENTS

PURPOSE: THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) PROGRAM PROVIDES ANNUAL GRANTS ON A FORMULA BASIS TO STATES, CITIES, AND COUNTIES TO DEVELOP VIABLE URBAN COMMUNITIES BY PROVIDING DECENT HOUSING AND A SUITABLE LIVING ENVIRONMENT, AND BY EXPANDING ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES, PRINCIPALLY FOR LOW- AND MODERATE-INCOME PERSONS. THE PROGRAM IS AUTHORIZED UNDER TITLE 1 OF THE HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACT OF 1974, PUBLIC LAW 93-383, AS AMENDED 42 U.S.C. 5301 ET SEQ. THE CDBG PROGRAM COVERS FOUR DISTINCT PROGRAMS, EACH WITH THEIR OWN SET OF GOVERNING REGULATIONS: CDBG ENTITLEMENT, CDBG NON-ENTITLED COUNTIES IN HAWAII, CDBG INSULAR AREAS, AND STATE CDBG. IN THE CDBG ENTITLEMENT PROGRAM, HUD AWARDS GRANTS TO ENTITLEMENT COMMUNITY GRANTEES TO CARRY OUT A WIDE RANGE OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES. ENTITLEMENT COMMUNITIES DEVELOP THEIR OWN PROGRAMS AND FUNDING PRIORITIES. IN THE CDBG NON-ENTITLED COUNTIES IN HAWAII PROGRAM, THREE COUNTIES QUALIFY: HAWAII, KAUAI, AND MAUI. THE FY 2004 APPROPRIATIONS ACT REQUIRED THE GOVERNOR OF HAWAII TO DECIDE IF THE STATE WISHED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM BY JULY 31, 2004. THE STATE MADE THE DECISION NOT TO PARTICIPATE IN THE PROGRAM. AS A RESULT OF THIS DECISION HUD'S HONOLULU FIELD OFFICE ADMINISTERS THE NON-ENTITLED GRANTS IN HAWAII. FUNDS ARE ALLOCATED USING A FORMULA BASED ON POPULATION, POVERTY, AND HOUSING OVERCROWDING, WITH THE POVERTY FACTOR CARRYING A DOUBLE WEIGHT. FOR THE CDBG INSULAR AREAS PROGRAM, HUD ANNUALLY ALLOCATES CDBG GRANTS TO FOUR DESIGNATED AREAS: AMERICAN SAMOA; GUAM; NORTHERN MARIANA ISLANDS; AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS. THE FUNDS ARE ALLOCATED IN PROPORTION TO THE POPULATIONS OF THE ELIGIBLE TERRITORIES. THE PROGRAM IS ADMINISTERED BY HUD'S FIELD OFFICES IN PUERTO RICO AND HAWAII. UNDER THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM, STATES PASS THROUGH CDBG GRANTS TO UNITS OF GENERAL LOCAL GOVERNMENT. ANNUALLY, EACH STATE DEVELOPS FUNDING PRIORITIES AND CRITERIA FOR SELECTING PROJECTS. SINCE STATES ARE IN THE BEST POSITION TO KNOW, AND TO RESPOND TO, THE NEEDS OF LOCAL GOVERNMENTS, CONGRESS AMENDED THE HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACT OF 1974 (HCD ACT) IN 1981 TO GIVE EACH STATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO ADMINISTER CDBG FUNDS FOR NON-ENTITLEMENT AREAS. NON-ENTITLEMENT AREAS INCLUDE THOSE UNITS OF GENERAL LOCAL GOVERNMENT WHICH DO NOT RECEIVE CDBG FUNDS DIRECTLY FROM HUD. GENERALLY, NON-ENTITLEMENT AREAS ARE CITIES WITH POPULATIONS OF LESS THAN 50,000 (EXCEPT CITIES THAT ARE DESIGNATED PRINCIPAL CITIES OF METROPOLITAN STATISTICAL AREAS), AND COUNTIES WITH POPULATIONS OF LESS THAN 200,000. CURRENT CDBG AWARDS AND ALLOCATIONS ARE INCLUDED IN THIS LIST OF HUD COMMUNITY PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT (CPD) AWARDS AND ALLOCATIONS LOCATED AT: HTTPS://WWW.HUDEXCHANGE.INFO/GRANTEES/ALLOCATIONS-AWARDS/; ACTIVITIES TO BE PERFORMED: CDBG FUNDS MAY BE USED FOR ACTIVITIES WHICH INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: ACQUISITION OF REAL PROPERTY; RELOCATION AND DEMOLITION; REHABILITATION OF RESIDENTIAL AND NON-RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURES; CONSTRUCTION OF PUBLIC FACILITIES AND IMPROVEMENTS, SUCH AS WATER AND SEWER FACILITIES, STREETS, NEIGHBORHOOD CENTERS, AND THE CONVERSION OF SCHOOL BUILDINGS FOR ELIGIBLE PURPOSES; PUBLIC SERVICES, WITHIN CERTAIN LIMITS; ACTIVITIES RELATING TO ENERGY CONSERVATION AND RENEWABLE ENERGY RESOURCES; PROVISION OF ASSISTANCE TO PROFIT-MOTIVATED BUSINESSES TO CARRY OUT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND JOB CREATION/RETENTION ACTIVITIES. EACH ACTIVITY MUST MEET ONE OF THE FOLLOWING NATIONAL OBJECTIVES FOR THE PROGRAM: BENEFIT LOW- AND MODERATE-INCOME PERSONS, PREVENTION OR ELIMINATION OF SLUMS OR BLIGHT, OR ADDRESS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT NEEDS HAVING A PARTICULAR URGENCY BECAUSE EXISTING CONDITIONS POSE A SERIOUS AND IMMEDIATE THREAT TO THE HEALTH OR WELFARE OF THE COMMUNITY FOR WHICH OTHER FUNDING IS NOT AVAILABLE. GENERALLY, THE FOLLOWING TYPES OF ACTIVITIES ARE INELIGIBLE: ACQUISITION, CONSTRUCTION, OR RECONSTRUCTION OF BUILDINGS FOR THE GENERAL CONDUCT OF GOVERNMENT; POLITICAL ACTIVITIES; CERTAIN INCOME PAYMENTS; CONSTRUCTION OF NEW HOUSING (WITH SOME EXCEPTIONS). UNDER THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM, STATES MAY USE $100,000 PLUS UP TO A MAXIMUM OF THREE PERCENT OF ITS CDBG ALLOCATION. AMOUNTS EXPENDED ON ADMINISTRATION IN EXCESS OF $100,000 MUST BE MATCHED. STATES MAY EXPEND UP TO THREE PERCENT OF THEIR CDBG ALLOCATION ON TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE ACTIVITIES. HOWEVER, THE TOTAL A STATE SPENDS ON BOTH ADMINISTRATIVE AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE EXPENSES MAY NOT EXCEED $100,000 PLUS THREE PERCENT OF THE STATE'S ALLOCATION. CPD HAS DEVELOPED PROFILES THAT DISPLAY GRANTEE-REPORTED ACCOMPLISHMENTS FOR SELECTED HOUSING, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT, AND PUBLIC SERVICE ACTIVITIES. PROFILES FOR GRANTEES WILL VARY, AS GRANTEES HAVE FLEXIBILITY IN DETERMINING THE HOUSING, ECONOMIC, AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES THEY CARRY OUT WITH CDBG FUNDS. THE MOST RECENT ACCOMPLISHMENTS CAN BE VIEWED WITHIN THE NATIONAL ACCOMPLISHMENT REPORTS LOCATED AT: HTTPS://WWW.HUDEXCHANGE.INFO/PROGRAMS/CDBG/CDBG-ACCOMPLISHMENT-REPORTS/; EXPECTED OUTCOMES: THE CDBG PROGRAM REINFORCES SEVERAL IMPORTANT VALUES AND PRINCIPLES OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT: PROGRAM FLEXIBILITY TO EMPOWER PEOPLE AND COMMUNITIES TO DESIGN AND IMPLEMENT STRATEGIES TAILORED TO THEIR OWN NEEDS AND PRIORITIES; AN EMPHASIS ON CONSOLIDATED PLANNING THAT EXPANDS AND STRENGTHENS PARTNERSHIPS AMONG ALL LEVELS OF GOVERNMENT AND THE PRIVATE SECTOR IN ENHANCING COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT; TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE ACTIVITIES AND SET-ASIDE FOR GRANTEES TO BUILD THE CAPACITY OF THESE PARTNERS. EACH CDBG GRANTEE’S EXPECTED OUTCOMES ARE DESCRIBED AS GOALS IN THEIR CONSOLIDATED PLAN. THE MOST RECENT CONSOLIDATED PLANS CAN BE VIEWED AT: HTTPS://WWW.HUDEXCHANGE.INFO/GRANTEES/REPORTS/#CONSOLIDATED-PLANS-ANNUAL-ACTION-PLANS-AND-CAPERS; INTENDED BENEFICIARIES: OVER A 1, 2, OR 3-YEAR PERIOD, AS SELECTED BY THE GRANTEE, NOT LESS THAN 70 PERCENT OF CDBG FUNDS MUST BE USED FOR ACTIVITIES THAT BENEFIT LOW- AND MODERATE-INCOME PERSONS. HUD DOES NOT PROVIDE CDBG ASSISTANCE DIRECTLY TO INDIVIDUALS, BUSINESSES, NONPROFIT OR ORGANIZATIONS OR OTHER NON-GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES. INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE INTERESTED IN PARTICIPATING IN THIS PROGRAM, SHOULD CONTACT THEIR LOCAL MUNICIPAL OR COUNTY OFFICIALS TO FIND OUT HOW THE PROGRAM OPERATES IN THEIR COMMUNITY. PARTICIPATION REQUIREMENTS MAY DIFFER FROM ONE GRANTEE TO ANOTHER. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM, THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT GRANTEE ADMINISTERS THE CDBG PROGRAM AND DETERMINES WHICH LOCAL PROJECTS RECEIVE FUNDING. ELIGIBLE GRANTEES ARE AS FOLLOWS: PRINCIPAL CITIES OF METROPOLITAN STATISTICAL AREAS (MSAS); OTHER METROPOLITAN CITIES WITH POPULATIONS OF AT LEAST 50,000; QUALIFIED URBAN COUNTIES WITH POPULATIONS OF AT LEAST 200,000 (EXCLUDING THE POPULATION OF ENTITLED CITIES); STATES AND INSULAR AREAS. THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA IS FUNDED UNDER THE CDBG ENTITLEMENT PROGRAM. THE STATE OF HAWAII DOES NOT PARTICIPATE, AND HUD ALLOCATES THE STATE'S SHARE OF FUNDS TO THE THREE HAWAII NON-ENTITLED COUNTIES. THE STATES ADMINISTER CDBG FUNDS IN THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM. SINCE STATES ARE IN THE BEST POSITION TO KNOW, AND TO RESPOND TO, THE NEEDS OF LOCAL GOVERNMENTS, CONGRESS AMENDED THE HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACT OF 1974 (HCD ACT) IN 1981 TO GIVE EACH STATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO ADMINISTER CDBG FUNDS FOR NON-ENTITLEMENT AREAS.; SUBRECIPIENT ACTIVITIES: THE SUBRECIPIENT ACTIVITIES ARE UNKNOWN AT THE TIME OF AWARD.

THE SPIP LEGAL PROJECT

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANTS/ENTITLEMENT GRANTS

PURPOSE: THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) PROGRAM PROVIDES ANNUAL GRANTS ON A FORMULA BASIS TO STATES, CITIES, AND COUNTIES TO DEVELOP VIABLE URBAN COMMUNITIES BY PROVIDING DECENT HOUSING AND A SUITABLE LIVING ENVIRONMENT, AND BY EXPANDING ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES, PRINCIPALLY FOR LOW- AND MODERATE-INCOME PERSONS. THE PROGRAM IS AUTHORIZED UNDER TITLE 1 OF THE HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACT OF 1974, PUBLIC LAW 93-383, AS AMENDED 42 U.S.C. 5301 ET SEQ. THE CDBG PROGRAM COVERS FOUR DISTINCT PROGRAMS, EACH WITH THEIR OWN SET OF GOVERNING REGULATIONS: CDBG ENTITLEMENT, CDBG NON-ENTITLED COUNTIES IN HAWAII, CDBG INSULAR AREAS, AND STATE CDBG. IN THE CDBG ENTITLEMENT PROGRAM, HUD AWARDS GRANTS TO ENTITLEMENT COMMUNITY GRANTEES TO CARRY OUT A WIDE RANGE OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES. ENTITLEMENT COMMUNITIES DEVELOP THEIR OWN PROGRAMS AND FUNDING PRIORITIES. IN THE CDBG NON-ENTITLED COUNTIES IN HAWAII PROGRAM, THREE COUNTIES QUALIFY: HAWAII, KAUAI, AND MAUI. THE FY 2004 APPROPRIATIONS ACT REQUIRED THE GOVERNOR OF HAWAII TO DECIDE IF THE STATE WISHED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM BY JULY 31, 2004. THE STATE MADE THE DECISION NOT TO PARTICIPATE IN THE PROGRAM. AS A RESULT OF THIS DECISION HUD'S HONOLULU FIELD OFFICE ADMINISTERS THE NON-ENTITLED GRANTS IN HAWAII. FUNDS ARE ALLOCATED USING A FORMULA BASED ON POPULATION, POVERTY, AND HOUSING OVERCROWDING, WITH THE POVERTY FACTOR CARRYING A DOUBLE WEIGHT. FOR THE CDBG INSULAR AREAS PROGRAM, HUD ANNUALLY ALLOCATES CDBG GRANTS TO FOUR DESIGNATED AREAS: AMERICAN SAMOA; GUAM; NORTHERN MARIANA ISLANDS; AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS. THE FUNDS ARE ALLOCATED IN PROPORTION TO THE POPULATIONS OF THE ELIGIBLE TERRITORIES. THE PROGRAM IS ADMINISTERED BY HUD'S FIELD OFFICES IN PUERTO RICO AND HAWAII. UNDER THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM, STATES PASS THROUGH CDBG GRANTS TO UNITS OF GENERAL LOCAL GOVERNMENT. ANNUALLY, EACH STATE DEVELOPS FUNDING PRIORITIES AND CRITERIA FOR SELECTING PROJECTS. SINCE STATES ARE IN THE BEST POSITION TO KNOW, AND TO RESPOND TO, THE NEEDS OF LOCAL GOVERNMENTS, CONGRESS AMENDED THE HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACT OF 1974 (HCD ACT) IN 1981 TO GIVE EACH STATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO ADMINISTER CDBG FUNDS FOR NON-ENTITLEMENT AREAS. NON-ENTITLEMENT AREAS INCLUDE THOSE UNITS OF GENERAL LOCAL GOVERNMENT WHICH DO NOT RECEIVE CDBG FUNDS DIRECTLY FROM HUD. GENERALLY, NON-ENTITLEMENT AREAS ARE CITIES WITH POPULATIONS OF LESS THAN 50,000 (EXCEPT CITIES THAT ARE DESIGNATED PRINCIPAL CITIES OF METROPOLITAN STATISTICAL AREAS), AND COUNTIES WITH POPULATIONS OF LESS THAN 200,000. CURRENT CDBG AWARDS AND ALLOCATIONS ARE INCLUDED IN THIS LIST OF HUD COMMUNITY PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT (CPD) AWARDS AND ALLOCATIONS LOCATED AT: HTTPS://WWW.HUDEXCHANGE.INFO/GRANTEES/ALLOCATIONS-AWARDS/; ACTIVITIES TO BE PERFORMED: CDBG FUNDS MAY BE USED FOR ACTIVITIES WHICH INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: ACQUISITION OF REAL PROPERTY; RELOCATION AND DEMOLITION; REHABILITATION OF RESIDENTIAL AND NON-RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURES; CONSTRUCTION OF PUBLIC FACILITIES AND IMPROVEMENTS, SUCH AS WATER AND SEWER FACILITIES, STREETS, NEIGHBORHOOD CENTERS, AND THE CONVERSION OF SCHOOL BUILDINGS FOR ELIGIBLE PURPOSES; PUBLIC SERVICES, WITHIN CERTAIN LIMITS; ACTIVITIES RELATING TO ENERGY CONSERVATION AND RENEWABLE ENERGY RESOURCES; PROVISION OF ASSISTANCE TO PROFIT-MOTIVATED BUSINESSES TO CARRY OUT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND JOB CREATION/RETENTION ACTIVITIES. EACH ACTIVITY MUST MEET ONE OF THE FOLLOWING NATIONAL OBJECTIVES FOR THE PROGRAM: BENEFIT LOW- AND MODERATE-INCOME PERSONS, PREVENTION OR ELIMINATION OF SLUMS OR BLIGHT, OR ADDRESS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT NEEDS HAVING A PARTICULAR URGENCY BECAUSE EXISTING CONDITIONS POSE A SERIOUS AND IMMEDIATE THREAT TO THE HEALTH OR WELFARE OF THE COMMUNITY FOR WHICH OTHER FUNDING IS NOT AVAILABLE. GENERALLY, THE FOLLOWING TYPES OF ACTIVITIES ARE INELIGIBLE: ACQUISITION, CONSTRUCTION, OR RECONSTRUCTION OF BUILDINGS FOR THE GENERAL CONDUCT OF GOVERNMENT; POLITICAL ACTIVITIES; CERTAIN INCOME PAYMENTS; CONSTRUCTION OF NEW HOUSING (WITH SOME EXCEPTIONS). UNDER THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM, STATES MAY USE $100,000 PLUS UP TO A MAXIMUM OF THREE PERCENT OF ITS CDBG ALLOCATION. AMOUNTS EXPENDED ON ADMINISTRATION IN EXCESS OF $100,000 MUST BE MATCHED. STATES MAY EXPEND UP TO THREE PERCENT OF THEIR CDBG ALLOCATION ON TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE ACTIVITIES. HOWEVER, THE TOTAL A STATE SPENDS ON BOTH ADMINISTRATIVE AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE EXPENSES MAY NOT EXCEED $100,000 PLUS THREE PERCENT OF THE STATE'S ALLOCATION. CPD HAS DEVELOPED PROFILES THAT DISPLAY GRANTEE-REPORTED ACCOMPLISHMENTS FOR SELECTED HOUSING, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT, AND PUBLIC SERVICE ACTIVITIES. PROFILES FOR GRANTEES WILL VARY, AS GRANTEES HAVE FLEXIBILITY IN DETERMINING THE HOUSING, ECONOMIC, AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES THEY CARRY OUT WITH CDBG FUNDS. THE MOST RECENT ACCOMPLISHMENTS CAN BE VIEWED WITHIN THE NATIONAL ACCOMPLISHMENT REPORTS LOCATED AT: HTTPS://WWW.HUDEXCHANGE.INFO/PROGRAMS/CDBG/CDBG-ACCOMPLISHMENT-REPORTS/; EXPECTED OUTCOMES: THE CDBG PROGRAM REINFORCES SEVERAL IMPORTANT VALUES AND PRINCIPLES OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT: PROGRAM FLEXIBILITY TO EMPOWER PEOPLE AND COMMUNITIES TO DESIGN AND IMPLEMENT STRATEGIES TAILORED TO THEIR OWN NEEDS AND PRIORITIES; AN EMPHASIS ON CONSOLIDATED PLANNING THAT EXPANDS AND STRENGTHENS PARTNERSHIPS AMONG ALL LEVELS OF GOVERNMENT AND THE PRIVATE SECTOR IN ENHANCING COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT; TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE ACTIVITIES AND SET-ASIDE FOR GRANTEES TO BUILD THE CAPACITY OF THESE PARTNERS. EACH CDBG GRANTEE’S EXPECTED OUTCOMES ARE DESCRIBED AS GOALS IN THEIR CONSOLIDATED PLAN. THE MOST RECENT CONSOLIDATED PLANS CAN BE VIEWED AT: HTTPS://WWW.HUDEXCHANGE.INFO/GRANTEES/REPORTS/#CONSOLIDATED-PLANS-ANNUAL-ACTION-PLANS-AND-CAPERS; INTENDED BENEFICIARIES: OVER A 1, 2, OR 3-YEAR PERIOD, AS SELECTED BY THE GRANTEE, NOT LESS THAN 70 PERCENT OF CDBG FUNDS MUST BE USED FOR ACTIVITIES THAT BENEFIT LOW- AND MODERATE-INCOME PERSONS. HUD DOES NOT PROVIDE CDBG ASSISTANCE DIRECTLY TO INDIVIDUALS, BUSINESSES, NONPROFIT OR ORGANIZATIONS OR OTHER NON-GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES. INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE INTERESTED IN PARTICIPATING IN THIS PROGRAM, SHOULD CONTACT THEIR LOCAL MUNICIPAL OR COUNTY OFFICIALS TO FIND OUT HOW THE PROGRAM OPERATES IN THEIR COMMUNITY.

THE RAMSEY COUNTY VIOLENCE REDUCTION INITIATIVE WILL ADDRESS AND REDUCE VIOLENCE (PARTICULARLY SHOOTINGS, HOMICIDES, AND CARJACKINGS) THROUGHOUT RAMSEY COUNTY, MINNESOTA. IT WILL ALSO IMPROVE OUTCOMES FOR PEOPLE AT HIGHEST RISK OF VIOLENCE AND STRENGTHEN RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN LAW ENFORCEMENT AND COMMUNITY. THE INITIATIVE WILL ACCOMPLISH THIS THROUGH LOCALLY DESIGNED AND LED IMPLEMENTATION OF AN EVIDENCE-BASED FOCUSED DETERRENCE STRATEGY KNOWN AS GROUP VIOLENCE INTERVENTION (GVI).  GVI HAS BEEN USED THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY AND HAS BEEN SHOWN TO REDUCE HOMICIDE AND GUN VIOLENCE. THIS WILL BE THE FIRST KNOWN GVI INITIATIVE TO ALSO FOCUS SPECIFICALLY ON CARJACKINGS.  THROUGH GVI, A PARTNERSHIP OF LAW ENFORCEMENT, COMMUNITY MEMBERS, AND SOCIAL SERVICE PROVIDERS DIRECTLY ENGAGES THE SMALL AND ACTIVE NUMBER OF PEOPLE INVOLVED IN VIOLENCE AND DELIVERS A CREDIBLE MORAL MESSAGE AGAINST VIOLENCE, PRIOR NOTICE ABOUT THE CONSEQUENCES OF FURTHER VIOLENCE, AND A GENUINE AND SUPPORTED OFFER OF HELP FOR THOSE WHO WANT IT. GVI MINIMIZES HARM TO COMMUNITIES BY REPLACING ENFORCEMENT WITH DETERRENCE AND FOSTERS STRONGER RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN LAW ENFORCEMENT AND THE PEOPLE THEY SERVE.  ACCORDING TO THE NATIONAL NETWORK FOR SAFE COMMUNITIES:  GVI FOCUSES ON THE GROUPS AT HIGHEST RISK FOR VIOLENT VICTIMIZATION AND OFFENDING, WITH THE INTENTION TO KEEP THOSE IN THEM ALIVE, SAFE, AND OUT OF PRISON. THE GVI PARTNERSHIP COMMUNICATES DIRECTLY WITH GROUP MEMBERS, CONVEYING A POWERFUL COMMUNITY MESSAGE ABOUT DISAPPROVAL FOR VIOLENCE AND IN SUPPORT OF COMMUNITY ASPIRATIONS; CONCRETE OPPORTUNITIES FOR BOTH IMMEDIATE AND LONGER-TERM ASSISTANCE AND SUPPORT; AND CLEAR PRIOR NOTICE OF THE LEGAL RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH CONTINUED VIOLENCE. THE PARTNERSHIP THEN DELIVERS SWIFTLY ON THESE COMMITMENTS. THE STRATEGY ARISES FROM A DESIRE TO BUILD COMMUNITIES’ CAPACITY TO PREVENT VIOLENCE, USE ENFORCEMENT NARROWLY AND STRATEGICALLY, HELP THE MOST VULNERABLE PEOPLE, AND IMPROVE THE LEGITIMACY OF POLICE IN THE EYES OF THE COMMUNITY. OVER 20 YEARS OF IMPLEMENTATION IN DOZENS OF CITIES, THIS APPROACH HAS CONSISTENTLY REDUCED SERIOUS VIOLENCE. THE INITIATIVE WILL BE LED BY A GOVERNING BOARD THAT WILL INCLUDE ELECTED OFFICIALS FROM PARTICIPATING JURISDICTIONS, PRINCIPALS FROM LAW ENFORCEMENT, SUPPORT AND OUTREACH ENTITIES, AND COMMUNITY “MORAL VOICE” REPRESENTATIVES. A FULL-TIME PROJECT MANAGER WILL COORDINATE THE MULTI-AGENCY MULTI-JURISDICTIONAL ACTIVITIES OF THE INITIATIVE. THE NATIONAL NETWORK FOR SAFE COMMUNITIES AT JOHN JAY COLLEGE WILL PROVIDE ROBUST TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE.  THE REDUCTION OF VIOLENT CRIMES WILL BENEFIT EVERYONE WHO LIVES, WORKS, AND PLAYS IN RAMSEY COUNTY. THE GREATEST DIRECT IMPACT WILL BE FOR PEOPLE IN UNDER-RESOURCED COMMUNITIES WHO ARE DISPROPORTIONATELY EXPERIENCING THIS VIOLENCE.

NSF CONVERGENCE ACCELERATOR TRACK M: TARGETED INSECT SENSING AND CONTROL -INSECT PESTS DAMAGE OR DESTROY BILLIONS OF DOLLARS? WORTH OF FOOD IN THE USA EACH YEAR. EFFORTS TO CONTROL SUCH PESTS (OFTEN BY BLANKET SPRAYING OF HARSH PESTICIDES), ARE EXPENSIVE AND HARMFUL TO THE ENVIRONMENT. FOR DECADES, GROWERS HAVE EXPERIMENTED WITH NATURAL BIOCONTROLS, INCLUDING THE RELEASE OF NATURAL PREDATORS/PARASITES OF THE TARGETED PESTS, AND THE RELEASE OF PHEROMONES TO CONFUSE THE MALES AND DRASTICALLY REDUCE THEIR SUCCESS IN FINDING A MATE. HOWEVER, BOTH IDEAS REQUIRE ACCURATE INSECT SURVEILLANCE, KNOWING WHICH INSECTS ARE WHERE IN THE FIELD. THE COST AND DIFFICULTY OF OBTAINING SUCH INFORMATION HAS MEANT THAT BIOCONTROLS ARE NOT COST EFFECTIVE AND ARE THUS RARELY USED. THIS PROJECT WILL DEVELOP AND TEST NOVEL METHODS FOR INSECT SURVEILLANCE. THE METHOD IS BASED LOOSELY ON HOW ONE OF NATURE?S BEST INSECT SENSORS, BATS. BATS CAN DETECT AND DISCRIMINATE BETWEEN VARIOUS TYPES OF INSECTS FROM A RELATIVELY LARGE DISTANCE. THE PROPOSED SENSORS WILL ALLOW THE SURVEILLANCE OF INSECTS DOWN TO THE LEVEL OF SEX, SPECIES, AND LIFE STAGE, AND WILL PROVIDE CRITICAL INFORMATION ABOUT WHEN THE INSECTS ARE MOST ACTIVE. THIS INFORMATION IS IMPORTANT FOR THE PRECISE TIMING OF THE PROPOSED INTERVENTIONS. THE PROJECT?S BROADER IMPACTS WILL INCLUDE REDUCED LABOR AND MATERIAL COSTS FOR GROWERS, MAKING US AGRICULTURE MORE COMPETITIVE. MOREOVER, BY REDUCING THE NEED FOR HARSH PESTICIDES, THE PROJECT SEEKS TO REDUCE DAMAGE TO BENEFICIAL POLLINATORS AND THE ENVIRONMENT. THE PROJECT IS HIGHLY INTERDISCIPLINARY, SPANNING WIRELESS SENSING, CLOUD COMPUTING, MACHINE LEARNING, ROBOTICS, ENTOMOLOGY, STATISTICS, AGRICULTURAL ECONOMICS AND SEMIOCHEMISTRY. PROGRESS WILL INITIALLY BE MEASURED WITH DIRECT COMPUTATIONAL METRICS, SUCH AS THE SIGNAL-TO-NOISE RATIO OF THE SENSOR, AND THE ERROR-RATE OF THE CLASSIFICATION ALGORITHMS. INTERMEDIATE EVALUATION WILL MEASURE THE INSECT PEST PRESSURE AND THE REDUCTION IN CROP LOSS. THE ULTIMATE METRICS OF SUCCESS ARE ECONOMIC AND BEHAVIORAL: DOES THE SYSTEM REDUCE COSTS FOR THE GROWER, AND ARE THEY WILLING TO ADOPT THE NEW TECHNOLOGY? THE PROJECT WILL MEASURE THESE ULTIMATE METRICS WITH TREE NUT GROWERS IN CALIFORNIA CENTRAL VALLEY. THIS AWARD REFLECTS NSF'S STATUTORY MISSION AND HAS BEEN DEEMED WORTHY OF SUPPORT THROUGH EVALUATION USING THE FOUNDATION'S INTELLECTUAL MERIT AND BROADER IMPACTS REVIEW CRITERIA.- SUBAWARDS ARE PLANNED FOR THIS AWARD.

THE OVERARCHING GOAL OF LAZARUS YOUTH COMMUNITY SUPPORT SERVICES (LYCSS) IS TO REDUCE SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER (SUD) AND OPIOID USE DISORDERS (OUD) AMONG YOUTH AND IMPROVE OVERALL WELLNESS, HARM REDUCTION KNOWLEDGE, AND RESILIENCY. YOUTH THAT HAVE BEEN EXPOSED TO SUBSTANCE AND/OR OPIOID USE FROM PARENTS OR OTHERWISE ARE AT HIGHER RISK OF DEVELOPING AN SUD IN THE FUTURE. PROJECT LAZARUS IS PROSPECTING TO IMPLEMENT AND SUSTAIN LYCSS IN WILKES COUNTY, NC WHICH WILL BE EXPANDED TO ALL WILKES COUNTY SCHOOLS. ALTHOUGH THERE ARE SOME MENTORING SERVICES IN WILKES COUNTY, LYCSS WILL SPECIFICALLY MENTOR YOUTH THAT HAVE AN EXISTING SUD OR OUD OR ARE AT RISK OF USING SUBSTANCES. PRIMARY ACTIVITIES THAT WILL BE IMPLEMENTED THROUGH THE PROGRAM INCLUDE TRAINING FOR THE COMMUNITY RESILIENCY MODEL AND HIRING ESSENTIAL PERSONNEL WHO HAVE FAMILIARITY WITH WILKES COUNTY OR HAVE EXPERIENCE WORKING WITH YOUTH. ADDITIONALLY, FRIEND-TO-FRIEND, MENTOR-TO-YOUTH, AND GROUP ACTIVITIES WILL TAKE PLACE WHICH INCLUDES COMMUNITY-MINDED PROJECTS AND INSTRUCTIONAL EDUCATION. ASSESSMENTS WILL BE CONDUCTED FOR PRE- AND POST- ENROLLMENT. A MULTI-SECTORAL PARTNERSHIP WILL BE INVOLVED TO ENSURE THAT THE PARTICIPANTS RECEIVE REFERRALS, TREATMENTS, AND ESSENTIAL SERVICES THAT THEY MAY NEED. PARTNERS OF LYCSS WILL HAVE A COLLECTIVE GOAL OF DECREASING YOUTH SUD RATES AND IMPROVING OVERALL HEALTH AND OUTLOOK. AS A RESULT OF ACCOMPLISHING THESE IMPLEMENTATION ACTIVITIES, DRUG USE RATES /OR THOSE THAT ARE JUSTICE INVOLVED WILL BE REDUCED THROUGH PROVIDING SUPPORTIVE SERVICES TO EMPOWER YOUTH. PRODUCTS AND DELIVERABLES WILL PRIMARILY BE IN THE FORM OF DATA ABSTRACTION AND SUMMARIZATION OF THE OUTCOME MEASURES THAT WILL BE COLLECTED THROUGH REDCAP AND THE MENTORING SOFTWARE USED.

THE FIRST ADAPTABLE, 3D-FORMFITTING MICROELECTRODE ARRAY FOR ORGANOID-BASED MODELS OF NEUROLOGICAL AND NEURODEGENERATIVE DISEASES - ABSTRACT THE PROPOSED WORK AIMS AT THE DEVELOPMENT OF AN ENHANCED ORGANOID-BASED IN VITRO PRE-CLINICAL DRUG SCREENING PLATFORM FOR NEUROLOGICAL AND NEURODEGENERATIVE BRAIN DISEASES. 2D IN VITRO CELL CULTURES AND NON- HUMAN ANIMALS HAVE BEEN THE MAINSTAY OF PRE-CLINICAL DRUG DEVELOPMENT AND MECHANISTIC STUDIES FOR DECADES. HOWEVER, 2D CELL CULTURES AND ANIMALS DO NOT ACCURATELY RECAPITULATE THE COMPLEXITY AND UNIQUE FEATURES OF HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY, THUS BEHAVE DIFFERENTLY FROM THEIR IN VIVO AND HUMAN COUNTERPARTS IN MANY KEY CHARACTERISTICS OF CELLULAR BEHAVIOR, LIMITING OUR ABILITY TO ACCURATELY MODEL BRAIN DISEASES. THANKS TO ADVANCEMENTS IN HUMAN INDUCED PLURIPOTENT STEM CELL (HIPSC) TECHNOLOGY, COMPLEX STRUCTURES RESEMBLING DEVELOPING ORGANS, NAMED ORGANOIDS, HAVE BEEN GENERATED FOR MANY TYPES OF ORGANS, INCLUDING BRAIN ORGANOIDS. THESE HUMAN ORGANOIDS REPLICATE CRITICAL ORGAN AND TISSUE-SPECIFIC FEATURES NOT OBSERVED IN ANIMAL MODELS OR 2D CELL CULTURES, THUS PROVIDING A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO MODEL HUMAN ORGAN STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION UNDER HEALTHY AND DISEASE CONDITIONS. A MAJOR LIMITATION FOR BRAIN ORGANOID RESEARCH IS THE LACK OF ADEQUATE INSTRUMENTATION TO MONITOR SPATIAL AND TEMPORAL ORGANIZATION OF NEURAL NETWORKS. SPECIFICALLY, ORGANOIDS ARE SPHERICAL WHEREAS COMMERCIAL MICROELECTRODE ARRAYS (MEAS) ARE FLAT, WHICH REDUCES THE ACCURACY TO DETERMINE NEURAL NETWORK ORGANIZATION BECAUSE THE CELLULAR SURFACE AREA FOR RECORDING NEURAL SIGNALS IS LIMITED AND ORGANOIDS REMODEL ON FLAT SURFACES. TO ENHANCE THE VALUE OF BRAIN ORGANOIDS FOR PRECLINICAL RESEARCH AND DISEASE MODELING, AN MEA TECHNOLOGY IS NEEDED THAT ENABLES MONITORING OF NEURAL SIGNALS ACROSS AS MUCH OF THE SURFACE OF THE PHYSIOLOGICALLY INTACT ORGANOID AS POSSIBLE. NO SUCH COMMERCIAL PLATFORM CURRENTLY EXISTS. THIS APPLICATION AIMS TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM BY UTILIZING BMSEED’S STRETCHABLE MICROELECTRODES TO CREATE POCKETS OF VARIABLE SIZES TO CONTAIN THE ORGANOID, RETAIN ITS SHAPE AND PHYSIOLOGICAL FUNCTION, AND ENVELOPE IT WITH MICROELECTRODES FOR RECORDING OF NEURAL ACTIVITY ACROSS ITS SURFACE. THIS NOVEL 3D PLATFORM, THE ORGANOID- BASED STIMULATING UND RECORDING VACUUM EQUIPMENT (OBSURVE), INTEGRATES THREE MODULES THAT (I) CREATE THE POCKETS IN THE ADAPTABLE CONTOUR FOR ORGANOID RESEARCH MULTIDIMENSIONAL ELECTRODE ARRAY (CONFORMEA), (II) RECORD NEURAL SIGNALS, AND (III) IMAGE CELLS AND CELLULAR PROCESSES. SPECIFICALLY, THIS PROPOSAL HAS THREE AIMS. THE FIRST SPECIFIC AIM IS FOCUSED ON BUILDING THE OBSURVE PLATFORM, AND TO ADAPT THE CONFORMEAS TO MEET THE NEED FOR ORGANOIDS RESEARCH. THE SECOND SPECIFIC AIM IS THE EVALUATION OF THE ELECTRICAL AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF THE PLATFORM. THE THIRD SPECIFIC AIM IS THE VALIDATION OF THE OBSURVE PLATFORM FOR DRUG SCREENING AND DISEASE MODELING USING BRAIN ORGANOIDS. THE FOCUS OF THIS PROPOSAL ARE HUMAN BRAIN ORGANOIDS BECAUSE NEUROLOGICAL AND NEURODEGENERATIVE DISEASES, SUCH AS AUTISM, ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE, AND PARKINSON’S DISEASE, ARE AMONG THE MOST PREVALENT AND COSTLY HEALTH PROBLEMS FACING OUR SOCIETY. HOWEVER, THE RESULTS WILL BE APPLICABLE TO OTHER TYPES OF ORGANOIDS, E.G., CARDIAC SPHEROIDS, FOR CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE MODELS AS WELL.

SBIR PHASE I: AUTOMATIC, DIGITAL CLASSIFICATION AND COUNTING OF MOSQUITOS TO ALLOW MORE EFFECTIVE VECTOR CONTROL -THE BROADER IMPACT/COMMERCIAL POTENTIAL OF THIS SMALL BUSINESS INNOVATION RESEARCH (SBIR) PHASE I PROJECT WILL BE THE CREATION OF AN END-TO-END PLATFORM FOR DIGITAL MOSQUITO SURVEILLANCE THAT CAN SUPPORT THE VITAL WORK OF VECTOR CONTROL DISTRICTS. EFFECTIVE VECTOR CONTROL IS ESSENTIAL TO REDUCING THE SPREAD OF DISEASES INCLUDING WEST NILE, EASTERN EQUINE ENCEPHALITIS AND ZIKA. CURRENTLY, MOSQUITO SURVEILLANCE IS TYPICALLY DONE USING MECHANICAL TRAPS, WHICH REQUIRE SIGNIFICANT LABOR TO SURVIVE. THE PROJECT WILL SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVE THE QUALITY AND EASE OF INSECT SURVEILLANCE, THUS ALLOWING MORE EFFECTIVE MOSQUITO CONTROL. THIS EFFORT WILL IMPROVE MOSQUITO SUPPRESSION EFFORTS, WHILE REDUCING LABOR COSTS AND THE VOLUME OF PESTICIDES THAT MUST BE USED. REDUCING THE VOLUME OF PESTICIDES HAS FURTHER POSITIVE BENEFITS TO SOCIETY AT LARGE: IT WILL REDUCE POLLUTION AND COLONY COLLAPSE DISORDER IN BENEFICIAL BEES. BEYOND AREA-WIDE SURVEILLANCE, THE HARDWARE/ ALGORITHMS/ REPRESENTATIONS/ DATA-MODELS CREATED IN THIS PROJECT WILL BE USEFUL TO SCIENTISTS THAT STUDY MOSQUITO-VECTORED DISEASES. FOR EXAMPLE, THE SOLUTIONS CAN BE USED TO MEASURE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF A NEW ATTRACTANT OR REPELLENT. THIS SMALL BUSINESS INNOVATION RESEARCH (SBIR) PHASE I PROJECT WILL INVESTIGATE TECHNIQUES TO IMPROVE STATE-OF-THE-ART MOSQUITO CLASSIFICATION AND COUNTING, WITH THE GOAL OF PRODUCING A PLATFORM THAT ALLOWS INEXPENSIVE, REAL-TIME, INSECT SURVEILLANCE TO SUPPORT MOSQUITO SUPPRESSION EFFORTS. ALTHOUGH DIGITAL SENSORS HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO REMOVE THE BURDEN OF MANUALLY COUNTING THE INSECTS, CURRENTLY THE VECTOR CONTROL TECHNICIANS MUST STILL VISIT THE TRAPS FREQUENTLY TO CHANGE THE CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2) GAS CYLINDERS (THE LURE) AND THE BATTERIES. THE REASON WHY BOTH CO2 AND BATTERIES DEPLETE SO RAPIDLY IS BECAUSE THEY ARE LEFT ON ALL DAY. BECAUSE THE TEAM IS SENSING INSECTS IN REAL TIME, THEY HAVE THE UNIQUE ABILITY TO ACTUATE THE GAS CYLINDERS AND FAN/LIGHT TO SAMPLE THE DISTRIBUTION OF INSECT ARRIVALS. THE TEAM CAN ALSO OPTIMIZE THE TRADE-OFF BETWEEN CONSERVING RESOURCES AND THE PRECISION OF MEASUREMENT OF MOSQUITO DENSITY. THIS AWARD REFLECTS NSF'S STATUTORY MISSION AND HAS BEEN DEEMED WORTHY OF SUPPORT THROUGH EVALUATION USING THE FOUNDATION'S INTELLECTUAL MERIT AND BROADER IMPACTS REVIEW CRITERIA.

THE RAMSEY COUNTY HISTORICAL SOCIETY WILL DIGITIZE APPROXIMATELY 2.5 MILLION COUNTY ASSESSOR FIELD CARDS THAT DOCUMENT THE STRUCTURAL CHANGES TO ALL RAMSEY COUNTY RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES MADE BETWEEN 1915 AND 2007. THE CARDS PROVIDE INFORMATION RELATED TO ZONING, BUILDING DESIGN, PROGRESSION OF OWNERSHIP AND MORE, AND AS SUCH, HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO REVEAL HISTORIC ZONING CODES THAT DELINEATE AREAS OF RACIAL SEGREGATION. ONCE DIGITIZED, THE COLLECTION WILL BECOME A RESOURCE FOR HISTORIANS, SCHOLARS, AND REFORMERS STUDYING THE CONNECTION BETWEEN RACIAL HOUSING COVENANTS, REDLINING, AND ZONING. IT WILL ALSO HELP INDIVIDUALS RESEARCH THE HISTORY OF THEIR HOMES, NEIGHBORHOODS, AND THE INDIVIDUALS WHO SHAPED THE COUNTY’S DIVERSE RESIDENTIAL AREAS. DIGITIZATION WILL ENHANCE LONG-TERM PRESERVATION OF THE COLLECTION BY REDUCING HANDLING OF THE CARDS AND WILL PREPARE THE DIGITAL FILES IN PREPARATION FOR THE CREATION OF A PUBLICLY ACCESSIBLE ONLINE CATALOG.

THE PUBLIC HOUSING UNITS ARE UPDATED TO BE DECENT, SAFE, SANITARY AND TO COMPLY WITH FEDERAL HOUSING STANDARDS. PHAS CAN ALSO USE A PORTION OF THE CAPITAL FUNDING FOR MANAGEMENT IMPROVEMENTS OR OPERATING ACTIVITIES INCLUDING SAFETY AND SECURITY COSTS.; INTENDED BENEFICIARIES: THE INTENDED BENEFICIARIES FOR PUBLIC HOUSING CAPITAL FUNDS ARE THE LOW-INCOME PUBLIC HOUSING RESIDENTS.; SUBRECIPIENT ACTIVITIES: THE RECIPIENT DOES NOT INTEND TO SUBAWARD FUNDS.

PURPOSE: WE PROPOSE TO DEVELOP A NEW FLUORESCENCE-ENHANCED, AUV MOUNTED, HIGH RESOLUTION 3D LASER IMAGING SYSTEM FOR CORAL REEF ECOSYSTEM MANAGEMENT AND RESEARCH. ADVANTAGES OF THIS SYSTEM WILL INCLUDE: ENHANCED AUTOMATED DISCRIMINATION OF BOTTOM COVER TYPE (E.G., LIVE STANDING CORAL, DEAD STANDING CORAL, CORAL RUBBLE, ALGAE); DETECTION AND COUNTING OF CORAL RECRUITS, DIRECT DETERMINATION AND MENSURATION OF 3D REEF STRUCTURE; AUTONOMOUSLY REPEATABLE SURVEY TRACKS FOR LONG TERM RECOVERY, RESILIENCY AND GROWTH STUDIES. SEVERAL STUDIES HAVE DEMONSTRATED THAT FLUORESCENCE IMAGING OF REEFS CAN PROVIDE ENHANCED AUTOMATED DISCRIMINATION BETWEEN DEAD AND LIVE CORAL AND ALGAE COVER, AND POTENTIALLY ALSO OF OTHER SEAFLOOR ORGANISMS BASED ON DISTINCTIVE FLUORESCENCE PROPERTIES. THE COMBINATION OF THE FLUORESCENCE SPECTRAL SIGNAL WITH SHAPE AND STRUCTURE INFORMATION FROM THE 3D IMAGING LIDAR DATA COLLECTION AND THE USE OF MACHINE LEARNING WILL PROVIDE A POWERFUL MULTIDIMENSIONAL TOOL FOR BOTTOM COVER CLASSIFICATION. THE SYSTEM WILL BUILD UPON OUR EXISTING AUV COMPATIBLE SINGLE-CHANNEL 3D LASER IMAGER. SINCE CLASSIFICATION IS DONE TO THE PIXEL LEVEL, AREA COVERAGE CAN BE ASSESSED WITH MANY MORE DATA POINTS THAN CAN BE ACHIEVED BY CONVENTIONAL DIVER-BASED SURVEY TECHNIQUES, AND WITH MORE AUTOMATED CLASSIFICATION THAN EXISTING COLOR VIDEO ANALYSIS APPROACHES. MAKING REPEATED SURVEYS AT USER-SELECTED TIME INTERVALS WILL ENHANCE THE ABILITY TO MONITOR CHANGES IN REEF COMMUNITY AND PHYSICAL STRUCTURE. PER NOAAS CORAL REEF CONSERVATION PROGRAM, THE ANNUAL ECONOMIC VALUE OF CORAL REEF FOR THE US IS OVER $3.4 BILLION AND OVER 500 MILLION PEOPLE DEPEND ON CORAL REEFS FOR FOOD, INCOME, AND COASTAL PROTECTION. BECAUSE OF THE LARGE THREAT TO CORAL REEFS FROM POLLUTION, GLOBAL WARMING, OVERFISHING, AND DISEASE, IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT LARGER CORAL REEF AREAS BE PERIODICALLY MONITORED FOR EARLY DETECTION OF DECAY AND THUS TO TAKE MITIGATION MEASURES, IF POSSIBLE, TO PREVENT THE DECLINE OF THE REEF. THE LACK OF A SENSOR THAT IS CAPABLE OF LARGE AREA SURVEY SPECIFICALLY TARGETING CORAL REEF ECOSYSTEM MANAGEMENT AND RESEARCH PROVIDES A HUGE OPPORTUNITY FOR THIS PRODUCT. DURING PHASE II AND AFTER, THIS SENSOR WILL BE ENHANCED TO PROVIDE AN EASY TO USE AND COST-EFFECTIVE SOLUTION TO OUR NOAA PARTNERS, SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY, AND INDUSTRIAL PARTNERS. THEREBY, DUE TO THE IMMEDIATE NECESSITY OF A SURVEY TOOL THAT CAN DETERMINE CHANGING CONDITIONS IN A CORAL REEF, BEAMSEA ESTIMATES SALES REVENUE OF $5 MILLION FROM THIS SENSOR AND DERIVED SUBCOMPONENTS DURING THE FIRST 10 YEARS. ADDITIONAL DERIVED APPLICATIONS TO BE EVALUATED ARE SURVEY OF HYDROCARBON AND POLLUTION IMPACTED AREAS, AND FISHERIES HABITAT SURVEYS.
