Eligible projects must be completed within 18 months <br /> of the grant/loan award. <br /> Grant funds up to$10,000 and loan funds up to$40,000 are available for qualifying projects. Both <br /> of the funds require dollar for dollar matching with local funds. The grant funds are available for <br /> "studies" to define and identify potential I/I sources and reduction potential, and loan funds are <br /> available for construction of projects to actually reduce the I/1 in the City system. The proposed <br /> "sump pump" identification and removal project, in St. Anthony, would qualify under the "loan" <br /> program. <br /> The "loan" program is rather unique because there is an opportunity for communities to have their <br /> annual loan repayment "forgiven." For a period of five years after the project is completed, the <br /> community must annually "certify" the status of the system 1/1 to the MCES. If the work continues <br /> to be effective in maintaining the I/I reduction, the City's annual payment is forgiven and the loan <br /> effectively becomes a "grant" for that year. Each year that the system is positively "certified", the <br /> payment is forgiven. <br /> Applications for the 1998 MCES program must be submitted by February 10, 1998. <br /> • <br /> Page 5 F I WPW/NV'ROPOSAL1059 971propowl <br />
