     § 1507.  Application and approval process.
        (a)  Application.--An eligible applicant that wishes to
     receive financial assistance under this chapter shall submit a
     written application to the department on a form developed by the
     department, which shall include the following:
            (1)  The name and address of the applicant.
            (2)  The name and telephone number of a contact person
        for the applicant.
            (3)  The amount and type of financial assistance
        requested and the proposed use of the funds.
            (4)  A statement as to the particular need for the
        financial assistance.
            (5)  A certified copy of a current resolution authorizing
        submission of the application if the applicant is a governing
        body.
            (6)  Evidence satisfactory to the department of the
        commitment for matching funds required under this chapter
        sufficient to match the projected financial assistance
        payments at the same times that the financial assistance
        payments are to be provided.
            (7)  Any other information the department deems necessary
        or desirable.
        (b)  Approval and award.--Upon determining that an applicant
     has complied with this chapter, applicable rules and regulations
     and any other requirement with respect to the financial
     assistance requested, the department may award financial
     assistance to the applicant. If the department awards financial
     assistance to the applicant, the department and the applicant
     shall enter into a financial assistance agreement setting forth
     the terms and conditions governing the use of the financial
     assistance and the timing of payment of the funds. The
     department shall develop guidelines for the application for and
     awarding of financial assistance under this chapter and shall
     forward them to the Legislative Reference Bureau for publication
     in the Pennsylvania Bulletin.
        (c)  Restriction on use of funds.--Financial assistance under
     this chapter shall be used only for activities set forth under
     the financial assistance agreement unless the department grants
     the award recipient a waiver allowing the funds to be used for a
     different purpose. The department's regulations shall describe
     circumstances under which it will consider waiver requests and
     shall set forth all information to be included in a waiver
     request. The maximum duration of a waiver shall be one year, and
     a waiver request shall include a plan of corrective action to
     demonstrate that the award recipient does not have an ongoing
     need to use financial assistance funds for activities other than
     those for which funds were originally awarded.
