Also by Program: see attached member Report iTem 32 From each member
Noted Problems:
1.
This program was developed by T. Allan Comp of the Southwest Pennsylvania Heritage Commission in conjunction with Penns Corner RC&D, and Fay-Penn Economic
Development Council. The original objectives were developed and accepted prior to RECD involvement in the program. The objectives have been changed since the original
objectives were listed. RECD in Pennsylvania is not being kept informed by either RECD National or the AmeriCorps Supervisor. This makes this very difficult to "supervise" the
operations of this project.
2.
Many of the objectives are not easily measured. Examples: Objectives 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16. Some of the project's work will not result in an immediate
measured result as the objective is written.
Obj 4 - number of taverns nominated for listing on the National Register of Historical Places do not immediately result in historic preservation or enhancements that may be
finished within the remaining term of the project. Therefore the success measurement-Percentage of inventories later used for enhancing or preserving the site. When is later?
How can this be measured if it falls after the project period ends? Doe all this good effort go uncounted? Shouldn't the measurement be "the number of owners that have made a
commitment to enhance their taverns to preserve the historical value of the property"?
Obj 5 - same as number four.
Obj 6 - Shouldn't this measurement read "completion of building rehabilitation plans and commitment to develop the Auto-Era National Road visitor center"?
Obj 8 - Shouldn't this measurement read "the number of people of the target number that have received the low-interest loans for National Road"?
Obj 10 - Shouldn't this measurement read "the number of people of the target number that have received a loan commitment for their home repair"?
Obj 12 - I can not find this success measurement standard and it does not give a very good method of measurement.
Obj 13 - Shouldn't this measurement read "the number of tons of junk removed, and the number of trees planted"?
Obj 14 - Shouldn't this measurement read "the number of volunteers involved"?
Obj 15 - Shouldn't this measurement read "the number of miles of trail researched"?
Obj 16 - Shouldn't this measurement read "the number of people that have joined the association"?
3.
I understand that the success measurements listed in the PGM code list describe long term success measures, but these can not be accomplished unless the short term
success measures are completed. The long term success measurement will occur, in most cases, after the end of the project in Pennsylvania.
4.
The communication method of this program is by fax machine. We do not receive all of the faxes that are sent. If the fax is longer than one page, we do not receive the
other pages. We do not know who is on the distribution list of the faxes that have been sent. This has created additional duplications and telecommunication costs.
5.
Deadlines are too short to be able to manage our duties and meet the AmeriCorps deadlines

CTION IV - SUCCESS STORIES
31. Unique Successes or Great Stories: Briefly describe a unique and/or exceptional success, program
highlight, or a 'great story' about your project or partnerships you formed with other people and/or
organizations.
I have been working closely with the Frazier School District and I am organizing a clean-up that will be
held on Saturday, April 20, 1996. The clean-up will be held at the George Washington Grist Mill and pand
the future site of the Youghiogheny River Trail. The goal of the clean-up is not only to remove debris from
both of these sites, but to encourage students to take pride in their community and their environment. The
students will be cleaning up areas that are in the school district. An assembly will be held for the student
two weeks before the clean-up to show them what the sites look like. PA Cleanways and the Regional Trail
Corporation are also working closely with me on this project. We hope to secure 90 people to sign-up for
the clean-up, and to create a public relations campaign around the clean-up.
SECTION IV - CHALLENGES
32. Use this section to report on any problems you may have encountered in your program this period.
These can be about obstacles to achieving your objectives, significant causes of delay, administrative
problems, or any other expectations, events or incidents that have caused you concern.
Unfortunately, after spending weeks organizing the educational summit, I decided to postpone the summit
until next school year. Many obstacles prevented the summit from occurring in March. Over the past
winter, all the schools in Fayette County had to cancel school many times because of flooding and heavy
snow. Therefore, schools had no days to spare to release teachers for a day for the summit and many of
the schools could not pay the substitutes that would be required.

SECTION IV - SUCCESS STORIES
31. Unique Successes or Great Stories: Briefly describe an unique and/or exceptional success, program
highlight, or a 'great story' about your project or partnerships you formed with other people and/or
organizations.
I was pleasantly surprised with the enthusiastic response of the Fayette County Area Vocational-
Technical School. The teachers are eager to begin the project and we are working together to get the
necessary materials to get started. Another pleasant surprise to come out of this project is the Mayor of
Uniontown's desire to help out with the project. The Mayor has been very supportive and has offered to
provide the necessary transportation for the vo-tech students. Additionally, the Mayor is supportive of
our "Community Volunteer Day" scheduled for May 11, and he has promised to help provide publicity
for that event.

32. Use this section to report on any problems you may have encountered in your program this period.
These can be about obstacles to achieving your objectives, significant causes of delay, administrative
problems, or any other expectations, events or incidents that have caused you concern.
The greatest challenge I have found is obtaining all the necessary funds and/or materials to successfully
complete all of these projects. I was surprised at the lack of businesses willing to donate anything, on the
other hand those businesses that are willing to donate have been most generous. On a personal note, I
have felt challenged by the enormity of the tasks set before me. During this second period of my work
here I feel that I have learned a lot about tackling large problems by taking small steps, one at a time.
This has made AmeriCorps has been a very positive learning experience for me thus far.

SECTION IV - SUCCESS STORIES
31. Unique Successes or Great Stories: Briefly describe an unique and/or exceptional success,
program highlight, or a 'great story' about your project or partnerships you formed with other people
and/or organizations.
I have had the ability as the team coordinator to assist with overyone's projects. This has proved to be
very interesting and rewarding to provide assistance to everyone's work and to learn about the various
projects. By coordinating the team, I see what everyone is doing and can recognize ways in which the
team can combine or sometimes discontinue efforts. The partnerships I have formed between team
members and local community groups has proven to be successful. Similarly, my acting as a liaison
between the Pittsburgh to Washington DC trail group and the Pennsylvania Chapter of Rails-to-Trails has
enable the two groups to resolve their differences and conflicts that stemmed from a lack of communication
- because the two are separated by many miles. They did not recognize the differences and similarities in
their priorities until I was able to act as the liaison. I am much appreciated by both.

32. Use this section to report on any problems you may have encountered in your program this period.
These can be about obstacles to achieving your objectives, significant causes of delay, administrative
problems, or any other expectations, events or incidents that have caused you concern.
It has been a challenge to concentrate my time on my specific objectives when there are many other
projects going on where I have interest and the ability to assist. Because there is much that can be done to
improve Fayette County during our term here, it difficult to prioritize actions and to make a real impression
of the AmeriCorps team. We have are very spread-out in goals and organizational levels and many project
outcomes have not yet been visible. The team is anxious to see the projects come to fruition and for the
community members to benefit from our efforts. The team always gets a boost from the little successes, I
look forward to some of the big ones.

SECTION IV - SUCCESS STORIES
31. Unique Successes or Great Stories: Briefly describe an unique and/or exceptional success,
program highlight, or a 'great story' about your project or partnerships you formed with other people
and/or organizations.
When the AmeriCorps team first arrived in Fayette County with the mission to promote appropriate
tourism-related heritage development along the National Road and Youghiogheny River corridors, we
toured both to obtain initial impressions and potential courses of action. One of the most glaring needs I
identified was some form of financial assistance for private property owners to rehabilitate their homes and
businesses. Without a significant investment of this sort, the economically-induced neglect of the past
several years would prevent the region from becoming a viable tourism destination. To address this issue,
I began to work toward developing a partnership with private financial institutions to provide low-interest
loans to private property owners (see objective #8). A meeting in late January with the vice president of
Fayette Bank yielded the first $100,000 commitment toward this initiative. Subsequently I have obtained a
second $100,000 from Integra Bank. With these contributions, negotiations with other institutions have
become much easier and my goal of $400,000 for this program seems realistic. Additionally, the western
regional office of the Pennsylvania Department of Community Affairs has taken an interest in the
developing program and may contribute additional moneys to further lower or eliminate interest payments
on the loans. The money from this program should start reaching directly into the community by the end
of the summer.
SECTION IV - CHALLENGES
32. Use this section to report on any problems you may have encountered in your program this period.
These can be about obstacles to achieving your objectives, significant causes of delay, administrative
problems, or any other expectations, events or incidents that have caused you concern.
The only major challenges I have experienced have been administrative in nature. In part due to the fact
that this is a new site, we have had significant problems with establishing our health insurance, filling out
appropriate enrollment and reporting forms, as well as establishing and quantifying objectives in the
proper format. Improving communication among the various national, state, and team representatives will
help this as will time and experience. Additionally, these problems will hopefully be resolved in Jackson.

Purpose
The National Road Heritage Park project was established to foster economic and
community development through the promotion of heritage tourism in the
National Road corridor.
The purpose of the National Road LILP is to encourage the rehabilitation of historic
properties and enhancement of commercial activity in the National Road Heritage
Park Corridor, thereby increasing the desirability and viability of the National Road
as a tourist destination.
Eligible Properties
Existing commercial and historic residential properties in the National Road
corridor are eligible to apply for this program. For purposes of this program, the
National Road corridor is defined as one-quarter mile from the center line of the
National Road in both directions (one-half mile total). The present U.S. Route 40
follows the National Road through Somerset, Fayette, and Washington Counties
with some exceptions, in bypassed areas, the old National Road defines the corridor.
Additionally, historic properties within five miles of the National Road which are
listed on or eligible for the National Register of Historic Places individually or as
contributing resources in a district are eligible for this program.
Eligible Activities
Residential:
1. Exterior and site rehabilitation in compliance with the Secretary of the
Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation of Historic Resources.*
2. Correction of code deficiencies.
Commercial:
1. Exterior and site rehabilitation in compliance with the Secretary of the

amounts would not exceed $30,000.00 with a minimum amount of $5,000.00 for a
term of five to seven years. The applicant would be required to provide 20% of the
project costs. Other loan terms and guidelines would be determined by the
individual lending institution according to established procedures.
Procedure
Application would be made to the National Road Heritage Park. Completed
applications would be reviewed by a committee of qualified professionals,
established by the National Road Heritage Park board. This review committee
would establish the projects eligibility in accordance with program guidelines, the
Secretary of the Interior's Standards, and local code and ordinances. The committee
would pay particular attention to the eligibility criteria designated with a *** above.
Financial eligibility would not be determined by this committee. Following
notification of approval by the National Road, the applicant would choose one of
the participating lending institutions. All application materials would then be
forwarded to the selected bank for determination of financial eligibility and
approval. Loans would then be made according to the institution's standard
lending procedures with the terms outlined above.

SECTION IV - SUCCESS STORIES
31. Unique Successes or Great Stories: Briefly describe an unique and/or exceptional success, program
highlight, or a 'great story' about your project or partnerships you formed with other people and/or
organizations.
The Tri-Town Historical Society, consisting of Dawson, Vanderbilt, and East Liberty, has been a great
help in my efforts with the historic sites survey. 20 members were in attendance the night I spoke. One
person from the society has taken me to Pittsburgh and introduced me to several contacts in the area. He
also opened many doors for me in the small town of Dawson which otherwise might not have been
opened to a stranger. The society is also involved in community activities other than history. For the
first time in many years a doctor has agreed to open a limited practice in the tri-town area and the
historical society has volunteered the use of its resources to promote the doctor and to help him in any
way they can. The society has been supportive of my efforts to bring the RUS in for a town meeting. I
acquired a copy of the Sewage Facility Act from a member of the society and was given general
information about what happened in the past with regards to a sewage facility.

15. Co
nity Service Objectives Narrative
The only USDA AmeriCorps team currently located in Pennsylvania is a five-member team based in Fayette County. The
introduction to the approved objectives for this team identified the development of rail-trails and heritage corridors into
attractive destinations for heritage-based tourism as a primary aspect of a large-scale community and economic recovery program
for this severely depressed rural county. The RECD AmeriCorps team is a significant part of this strategy and their objectives
directly reflect this agenda. Due in part to the fact that this approach to rural economic and community development differs from
the majority of USDA AmeriCorps teams the approved objectives were initially fairly broad and did not easily fit into existing
coded categories. For this reason we have recrafted the team's objectives. Question 14 illustrates the team's specific project-
oriented objectives which have developed from the original ones. Unfortunately some remain difficult to categorize specifically
within the existing four-digit program codes; wherever possible, the most appropriate category was selected, in other cases that
block was left blank pending future determination of new categories.

Year-to-Date Data on Objectives and Member Forms
Attached is a "year-to-date" progress report showing accomplishments on objectives through the
third quarter report. This data, plus the fourth quarter data, will be provided to members of
Congress representing your state and to your agency leaders. It is imperative that the
information reflected in this report be as accurate as possible. The report also shows the
degree to which you have accomplished your objectives which were agreed to at the beginning of
this program year.
I ask that you carefully review this report. Review each objective with the following items in
mind:
1. Accuracy of the data. This information will be shared with many different groups,
and it is important to be accurate in our reporting as well as getting credit for all the great work
you have done during the year.
2. Completion of community service objectives. One way to determine the successful
completion of objectives is to measure accomplishments against the target quantity measurement
which you established at the beginning of the year. The table below gives you a snapshot picture
of your accomplishments through the third quarter. The last five columns reflects your work
measured against the target quantity.

3. Program codes. Review the program code for each of your objectives. Please be sure
that the data you are recording for quantity matches the quantity for that program code. For
example, the quantity measurement for program code R027A is the number of people reached,
whereas R027B is the number of people with approved loans. If you are counting something other
than the quantity measurement for the code, please indicate exactly what you are counting.
4. Congressional Districts. Please indicate in which Congressional District(s) the work
was actually accomplished. This will let us be very specific to Members of Congress as to what
work was done in their district.
5. Volunteers. Please explain what the volunteers have done with your AmeriCorps
members. Also ensure that the volunteer numbers you have been providing to us each quarter is
for the quarter only, not cumulative for the year.
Your assistance in this reporting enables us to meet our legal obligations as well as providing us
with the necessary information to promote our USDA AmeriCorps program to all interested
parties. Providing this data in an accurate and timely manner is one of your most important duties
as an AmeriCorps Project Director.

send copies to the USDA Director of National Service immediately. 3. There are vacancies in your program you intend to fill in the next reporting period.
If that is the case, enter the number of vacancies on the appropriate line. 4. There are vacancies that you can not fill and you are relinquishing them.
REMEMBER, MEMBERS WHOSE FORMS HAVE NOT BEEN RECEIVED AT USDA ARE NOT CONSIDERED ENROLLED IN THE PROGRAM AND THEIR BENEFITS (EDUCATION AWARD, ETC.) ARE JEOPARDIZED!!!
If the number of members for whom forms have been received is greater than the number of members allocated resulting in a negative number appearing in the "No. of
Members for Whom Forms Have NOT Been Received" line, you have enrolled more members in your program than authorized. Please explain this over enrollment. It may be
