   FROM     R. L. Peterson



   SUBJECT: HRP Staff Meeting, December 2


            The principal discussion at this meeting centered on HRP budget  require-
            ments and options for fiscal years 1975 and 1976.  A paper analyzing
            requirements and setting options (dated 11/27/74) had been distributed
            to the IIRP executive staff beforehand.

            Mr. Croft and Mr. Kelly described the major options as outlined in that
            paper that had been identified for purposes of budget  analysis.  Briefly,
            they are:

                1. R.Ipid-Imp@lementation.- limiting-transiti-onal.funding to-I)'cember-
                                                                            e
                   31, 1975, and making awards to all new agencies by no later than
                   June 30, 1976;

                2. Phased Implementation - providing transitional funding on an indivi-
                   dual agency basis, and making awards to approximately  thtee-fourths
                   of the new local agencies by June 30, 1976;

                3. Delayed Implementation - providing transitional funding to June  30,
                   1976, and making awards to approximately one-half of the new  local
                   agencies by June 30, 1976;

                4. Straight Extension - continuing with existing programs at the
                   FY 74 level.

            Comments on the budget analysis and options were requested by Mr.  Rubel.
            His desire is that we be in a position to-submit an HRP budget request
            to HRA by December 13.

            In addition to a report on legislative developments and prospects by
            Mr. Rubel, several other matters were noted for information.  Mr.  Peterson
            stated that the following additional work group assignments had been  made:
            Agency Selection - Larry Pullen,.Tom Simonds, and Bob Ullom of the  EHSDS
            program in BHSR; Area Designation - Bob Lindsay of DPU; and Section  1122/
            Regulatory Activities - Ben Neufeld and Matt Spear.

            Dr. Rorrie is revising the agenda for the regional HRP orientation meetings
            to be held in January; and development of an agenda for the meeting  with
            regional office staff on HRP implementation later this month, is  underway.
            Copies of the former will be distributed at Moildayis meeting. A draft  of
            the I.atter is attached.
