Section 3.150.080. Review of applications and award of grants.

	(a)  The department will review applications for eligibility for NPR-A impact assistance and place applications in order of priority in accordance with 3 AAC 150.060.  
	(b)  The department will review each application determined to be eligible for NPR-A impact assistance to determine whether the amount requested for a project is reasonably necessary for the project to alleviate impacts from oil and gas development in the NPR-A under 42 U.S.C. 6508, the department will deduct from the amount requested any amounts that are not reasonably necessary for that purpose.  
	(c)  If, after making necessary adjustments to grant requests under (b) of this section, the department determines that the total amount for eligible projects requested by all eligible applicants that year is equal to or less than the amount appropriated for that year, the department will fund all meritorious requests. If the total amounts requested are greater than the amount appropriated, the department will fund requests in accordance with the priorities established in 3 AAC 150.060 until the appropriation is spent. The department will, in its discretion, recommend to the legislature that additional money be made available through supplemental appropriations.
