Appropriations Act Signed by President,
LIHEAP Funded at $1.8 Billion
The Consolidated Appropriations
Act of 2004 (P.L. 108-199) was passed and signed by the President
on January
23, 2004. A total of $1.8 billion has been appropriated for
the FY 2004 LIHEAP program, as well as an additional $100 million
in emergency contingency funds. Note that P.L. 108-199 provides
an across the board rescission of 0.59% for all programs and program
categories. Therefore, the final amounts are $1,789,380,000
for the LIHEAP block grant and $99,410,000 for contingency funds.
The block grant allocation table provides
final FY 2004 state, tribal and territorial allocations. Since
the FY 2004 appropriation level ($1,789,380,000) is higher than
the level of funding under the continuing resolution ($1,688,950,000),
all grantees will receive additional grant awards to reflect the
higher figure. States will receive an increase based on their
requests through the 2nd quarter; tribes and territories
will receive the entire amount of their FY 2004 allocations.
