17 Pa. Code § 61.2. Division of LWCF apportionment among State agencies.

§ 61.2. Division of LWCF apportionment among State agencies.

 (a)  The initial step in the open project selection process begins with the allocation of the Commonwealth’s annual Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) Program apportionment among the following State agencies responsible for administering the program funds:

   (1)  The Department.

   (2)  The Fish and Boat Commission.

   (3)  The Game Commission.

   (4)  The Historical and Museum Commission.

 (b)  When the amount of the apportionment is made known by the Department of Interior, the staff of the agencies listed in subsection (a) negotiate a split of the funds that is presented to the State Liaison Officer—the Secretary of the Department—for recommendation to the Governor in the form of a Certificate of Approval for Allocation of Federal LWCF funds. Concurrent with this negotiation and recommendation process is the release of the official Certificate of Apportionment to the Governor by the Department of Interior. The signing of the Certificate of Approval by the Governor finalizes the split of the funds between the State agencies and establishes their allocations for the year.
