If the entity does not submit the document required under this paragraph, the funds allocated to the entity pursuant to subdivision (a) or (c) shall be reallocated by the Office of Emergency Services in accordance with paragraph (2). This paragraph also applies to transit operators receiving a suballocation from a transportation planning agency, in which case the operator rather than the transportation planning agency is required to provide the document.

(2) The Office of Emergency Services shall notify the transportation planning agency if funds allocated to an entity within the region of the transportation planning agency are being reallocated pursuant to paragraph (1). The transportation planning agency shall have 30 days to provide a document, in a form as designated by the Office of Emergency Services, to the Office of Emergency Services indicating its intent to distribute those funds to transit operators or rail operators for purposes authorized under subdivision (a) or (c). An agency providing that document shall receive an allocation of the funds. If the transportation planning agency does not provide the document within 30 days, the Office of Emergency Services may allocate the funds on a competitive basis, pursuant to guidelines established by the Office of Emergency Services, to an entity in a different region of the state that is an eligible entity under subdivision (a) or (c). An eligible entity that is notified that it will be awarded these funds shall, as a condition of receiving the funds, satisfy the requirements of paragraph (1) within 45 days of being advised of the reallocation. As used in this subdivision, “transportation planning agency” includes the county transportation commission in counties that have such a commission.

(3) The formula that applies to State Transit Assistance funds shall not apply to a reallocation of funds under this subdivision.

If sufficient federal funds are not available within five days, the Governor shall make a written request to the Treasurer to borrow and deposit in the fund the amount necessary, as determined by the administrator, to pay those estimated excess response costs, including costs specified in paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (4), (6), and (8) of subdivision (k) of Section 8670.48, and, if necessary, to repay any draws upon the financial security obtained by the Treasurer pursuant to subdivision (o) of Section 8670.48.
