1 1. Overview

Why collect data: By statute, the NBRC is required to annually assess the level of economic and demographic distress within its 36 county region. The reasons for this annual exercise include:

• To have reliable and timely data that can inform NBRC leadership as they create new- and perfect existing- economic and infrastructure funding programs, • To create a benchmark in which annual compilations of economic and demographic data can be compared to the NBRC’s Five Year Plan goals, • To identify whether or not the NBRC can provide grants to projects within a county, • What level of match is required by grant applicants for projects. • To assist States as they develop their own economic and community development programs, and • To provide publicly available information so local decision makers can prioritize their economic and community development strategies.

What is done with the data: The ultimate result of this work is to separate counties and municipalities within the NBRC service area into certain classifications. These classifications, defined by statute, include: Distressed Counties, Transitional Counties, and Attainment Counties.

40 U.S.C., Subtitle V states that, “distressed” counties are those that, “have high rates of poverty, unemployment, or outmigration” and “are the most severely and persistently economic distressed and underdeveloped.” The NBRC is required to allocate 50% of it total appropriations to projects in counties falling within this designation. The maximum percent of a “distressed” project that can be funded by the NBRC is 80%.

“Transitional” counties “have recently suffered high rates of poverty, unemployment, or outmigration” or “are economically distressed and underdeveloped.” The maximum percent of a “transitional” project that can be funded by the NBRC is 50%.

Finally, “attainment” counties are those that are neither “distressed” nor “transitional.” The NBRC is not allowed to fund projects within an attainment county unless the project is within an “isolated area of distress,” or have been granted a waiver. Isolated areas of distress are “areas [municipalities] that have high rates of poverty, unemployment, or outmigration.”

Because poverty, unemployment, and outmigration are only parts of an economic situation, the NBRC has adopted categories above and beyond those directed by statute. These “Secondary Distress Categories” provide a more in-depth survey of the NBRC’s service area as well as greater opportunities to gauge the success of the NBRC’s programs over time. These include: Educational Attainment (bachelor’s degree or higher), Household Income, and Seasonal Home Ownership.

Additional data: This year, in order to better understand the status of the its service area compared to immediately adjacent regions, the NBRC is also requesting data from “outlier” counties and municipalities; including those immediately contiguous to NBRC counties as well as those counties outside the jurisdiction of other Federally recognized Regional Commissions.

8 8. About The NBRC

Created by the US Congress in 2008 and funded since 2010, the NBRC is a Federal-State partnership whose mission is to help alleviate economic distress in thirty-six northern counties of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, and New York. Unlike other areas of America’s northeast, the northern counties of these States have higher levels of unemployment, outmigration, and lower income.

The NBRC partnership is led of the governors of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, and New York as well as a Federal Co-chair, who is appointed by the President. Local participation is provided through multi-county local development districts.

While Congress allowed the NBRC considerable ﬂexibility in the types of areas in which to focus, the NBRC has created a Five Year Strategic Plan that emphasizes three goals related to Infrastructure; Business and Entrepreneurial growth; and Leadership and Community Capacity.

Thanks to annual Congressional appropriations, the NBRC has awarded $21.2 million to 116 public and non proﬁt recipients for assorted infrastructure, telecommunications, and business development projects. By statute, NBRC investments are considered non-federal match and can provide funding for up to 80% of a project; making them attractive for leveraging other federal funds.

More information on the NBRC can be found at www.nbrc.gov. The NBRC’s enabling statute can be found at 40 USC, Subtitle V (“Regional Economic and Infrastructure Development”).
