(relating to nutrient application procedures).
(5) Other costs the Commission has determined
to be necessary.
(b) Funds
encumbered or advanced for the project which are not used for eligible costs in
the project shall be returned to the fund or account from which they originated
for reallocation and use in the implementation of other plans.
(c) The Commission may consider alternative
manure technology practices and equipment eligible to receive financial
assistance under this subchapter if these practices or equipment are considered

These eligible practices may be approved to service an individual operation or
may service more than one operation if approved by the Commission. For
multi-partnered projects, all farms providing manure for the project must agree
to amend an existing plan or develop and implement a new approved nutrient
management plan meeting the provisions of this subchapter.
