States Eligible For Bicentennial Grants Greenhouse Effect Radiation from the sun passes through space until it reaches the outer atmosphere of the earth. Much of it is absorbed by the earth's surface, causing the temperature to rise. The heat is then reradiated. If the amount of C02 in the atmosphere in­ creases, a larger amount of this radiation is trapped as in a glasshouse, instead of being lost into outer space. In the last 50 years there has been an increase in the level of C02 in the earth's atmosphere because of the burn­ ing of fossil fuels--though prob­ ably not enough to raise the earth's temperature. The American Revolution Bicentennial administration (ARBA) has announced the availability of an additional $40,000 per state in matching grant money for support of projects and programs for the nation's Bicentennial. Totaling $2.2 million, the money comes from net revenues from the sale of Bicentennial medals and the ARBA's commemorative licensing program. This is the fourth, and last, increment of $40,000 non­ appropriated grants that have been provided each of the fifty states, the District of Colum­ bia, Puerto Rico, American Samoa, Guam and the Virgin Islands. As in the past, all money in the latest grant program will be awarded through state Bicentennial commissions which will also monitor the grants. Projects to be sup­ ported may be conducted directly by the state com­ missions or by state or local government agencies or non­ profit organizations. Up to $12,500 of the money can be used without matching funds, to provide ad? ministrative support for the State Bicentennial commission so desiring. Because the Bicentennial year is well under way, states that so wish may use the grant funds to implement projects previously submitted without additional public notice within their state of the availability of the funds. The grant funds can also be used to support July 4 weekend activities and Bicentennial the visitor impact costs at discretion of each state. The latest program brings the total non-appropriated grant money provided to the states for local Bicentennial activities to $8.8 million in the four years money has been available from the sale of commemoratives. Each state has also been eligible for $200,000 in matching grant money from $11 million appropriated by the Congress for Bicentennial activities. On average, each dollar of grant money has been matched - so far by over four dollars in local funding. / Through the end of 1975, 2,430 local Bicentennial activities had received support from the matching grant programs. These activities are in keeping with the national Bicentennial themes of Heritage '76, Festival USA and Horizons '76. John W. Warner, ad­ ministrator of the ARBA, recently discussed the federal funding provided the ARBA and its predecessor agency, the American Revolution Bicen­ tennial commission. "From the beginning in 1968 through the end of September, 1976, the Congress has ap­ propriated a total of $51.8 million. Of that amount, $20 million has gone to the states in grants, and nearly $1 million was returned to the treasury at the end of various fiscal years. "The remaining $30.9 million has supported the ad­ ministration and operations of the national Bicentennial agency, including its ten regional offices. RARITY...The baby of the herd.
