2005 Maine Code - §1852 — Salt and sand storage facilities

    If funds are available for grants to an owner or operator of a project in the funding order established in section 1851, yet if within one year of notice of availability of the funds the owner or operator fails to submit to the Department of Transportation in writing a preliminary plan and estimate, a notice of a completed or partially completed facility or a notice of a signed contract for imminent construction of a facility, the Department of Transportation may make any funds committed or otherwise obligated to that project under this section and section 1851 available to any constructed project of a lower funding priority under section 1851 that has sent all required submissions to the department. A project that loses its funding under this paragraph remains eligible for reimbursement at a later date, subject to availability of funds. [1999, c. 387, §2 (new).]

    The department may not reimburse a municipality or county under this section or section 1851 for that portion of construction expenses paid for with a grant awarded in accordance with Public Law 1991, chapter 849, section 3 or under the Community Development Block Grant Program. [1993, c. 63, §1 (new).]
