(a) Funds available under the EH Fund will be made
available at least once per state fiscal year to eligible Applicants
dependent on the amount of funding made available.
(b) The balance of the EH Fund will determine the distribution
method.
(1) For an annual, uncommitted balance that does not
exceed $1,000,000 as of the end of the state fiscal year, the total
of available EH funds will be distributed equally, up to the amount
requested, among the total number of entities satisfying all of the
following requirements:
(A) Are Subrecipients or awarded Applicants of ESG
or HHSP;
(B) Are counties or municipalities;
(C) Have indicated that they wish to participate in
the EH Fund; and
(D) Have identified the minimum amount of funds they
would accept and the maximum amount of funds they would be able to
expend during the Contract Term.
(2) For an annual, uncommitted fund balance that exceeds
$1,000,000 as of the end of the state fiscal year, the total of available
EH Funds may be made available through a NOFA, which may include being
made available to counties and municipalities that are not existing
ESG or HHSP Subrecipients or awarded Applicants. If the amount of
uncommitted funds in the EH Fund is greater than $1,000,000, an award
made available through a NOFA shall not exceed $250,000 per Applicant
per state fiscal year, unless there are no other eligible Applicants.
