4 Pa. Code § 117.6 - Application and review procedures for funding
(a) The application procedures in this
section apply to eligible applicants that seek funding from the RTERF. The
Agency will provide each applicant with the requisite application
form.
(b) Applicants, except for
State agencies, shall submit a funding application to the appropriate county
emergency management agency. The county emergency management agency shall
review the application in terms of its compliance with and advancement of the
county's Radiation Emergency Response Plan. Upon approval by the county
emergency management agency, the individual funding application of the eligible
municipality or volunteer organization shall be incorporated into the county's
application for funding from the RTERF. State agencies shall submit funding
applications directly to the Agency. That application shall be submitted under
the signature of the State agency's secretary/director or a designee.
(c) It is the obligation of the county to
participate in negotiations and revisions concerning its funding application.
In particular, the county shall attempt to resolve disputes that arise between
the county and its municipalities and volunteer organization, or both,
concerning the inclusion of individual funding requests into the county's
application. Disputes that cannot be resolved at the county level through
negotiations will be resolved by the Agency during its review of the county's
funding application.
(d) Upon
receipt of a funding application, the Agency will review the application for
accuracy and completeness. The Agency will apply the following standards to its
application review process:
(1) The
expenditure will be incurred during the applicable funding year-July 1 to June
30.
(2) The expenditure was not
previously recouped or reimbursed from other sources.
(3) The expenditure will be required as a
direct result of the applicant's participation in a radiation transportation
emergency response program.
(4) The
expenditure will be required for the payment of education, management and
training or for the purchase of protective supplies and equipment needed to
respond to a potential accident involving the shipment of spent nuclear
fuel.
(5) The expenditure shall be
verifiable.
(e) Upon the
completion of the application review process, the agency will approve a funding
allocation for the eligible applicant.
(f) After the Agency's approval of a funding
allocation, the Agency will forward the payment to an eligible
applicant.
