Sec. 386.111. APPLICATION REVIEW PROCEDURES. (a) The commission shall review an application for a grant for a project authorized under this subchapter, including an application for a grant for an infrastructure project, immediately on receipt of the application. If the commission determines that an application is incomplete, the commission shall notify the applicant with an explanation of what is missing from the application. The commission shall evaluate the completed application according to the appropriate project criteria. Subject to available funding, the commission shall make a final determination on an application as soon as possible.
(b) The commission shall make every effort to expedite the application review process and to award grants to qualified projects in a timely manner. To the extent possible, the commission shall coordinate project review and approval with any timing constraints related to project purchases or installations to be made by an applicant.
(c) The commission may deny an application for a project that does not meet the applicable project criteria or that the commission determines is not made in good faith, is not credible, or is not in compliance with this chapter and the goals of this chapter.
(d) Subject to availability of funds, the commission shall award a grant under this subchapter in conjunction with the execution of a contract that obligates the commission to make the grant and the recipient to perform the actions described in the recipient's grant application. The contract must incorporate provisions for recapturing grant money in proportion to any loss of emissions reductions or underachievement in dispensing qualifying fuel compared with the volume of emissions reductions or amount of fuel dispensed that was projected in awarding the grant. Grant money recaptured under the contract provision shall be deposited in the fund and reallocated for other projects under this subchapter.
(e) An applicant may seek reimbursement for qualifying equipment installed after the effective date of this program.
