SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Office of Local Defense Community 
Cooperation (OLDCC), in coordination with the other Federal Agencies, 
delivers a program of technical and financial assistance to enable 
states and communities to plan and carry out civilian responses to 
workforce, business, and community needs arising from Defense actions; 
cooperate with military installations and leverage public and private 
capabilities to deliver public infrastructure and services to enhance 
the military mission and achieve facility and infrastructure savings; 
and increase military, civilian, and industrial readiness and 
resiliency, and support military families. The Economic Adjustment Data 
System (EADS) supports this mission by providing a platform for 
authorized grant applicants to submit their application packages, and 
for grant awardees to submit quarterly or semi-annual performance 
reports. We are requesting emergency approval as this system supports 
all grants management functions for grant applications, active grant 
monitoring and oversight, and grant closeout activities for OLDCC's 
portfolio consisting of approximately 225 active grants valued at $1.4B 
annually.
