Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
For a Project subject to Water Code Sections
				  12582.7,
				  12585.7, and
				  12585.9, the
				  recommended State Cost-Share is a baseline fifty percent for features of the
				  Project necessary for flood control, which are those associated with the
				  separable flood damage reduction costs. The recommended State Cost-Share shall
				  be increased above the baseline State Cost-Share for each recommended
				  percentage increase for the Objectives, up to a maximum total of seventy
				  percent. The costs must be in addition to any costs that could have been
				  classified as Project costs because they were required to mitigate the
				  Project's effects on the environment under the California Environmental Quality
				  Act, the National Environmental Policy Act, the Clean Water Act, the Federal
				  Endangered Species Act, the California Endangered Species Act, or other
				  environmental laws. Costs that establish eligibility for meeting an Objective
				  can only be counted toward one Objective, so, for instance, costs of meeting
				  the Open Space Objective cannot also be counted as costs of meeting the Habitat
				  Objective. Costs that are insufficient to establish eligibility for meeting the
				  Habitat Objective, Open Space Objective, or Recreation Objective or exceed the
				  five, ten, or fifteen percent thresholds for these Objectives may be counted
				  toward the Combination Objective. The recommended percentage increases will
				  be:
(a) Zero percent, if no Objectives
				are met;
(b) Five percent for each
				significant contribution toward the Habitat Objective, Open Space Objective, or
				Recreation Objective when at least five percent and less than ten percent of
				the estimated Nonfederal Capital Cost are spent for meeting an
				Objective;
(c) Ten percent for each
				significant contribution toward the Habitat Objective, Open Space Objective, or
				Recreation Objective when the percent of the estimated Nonfederal Capital Cost
				spent for meeting an Objective is at least ten percent and less than fifteen
				percent;
(d) Fifteen percent for
				each significant contribution toward the Habitat Objective, Open Space
				Objective, or Recreation Objective when the percent of the estimated Nonfederal
				Capital Cost spent for meeting an Objective is at least fifteen percent and
				less than twenty percent;
(e)
				Twenty percent for each significant contribution toward the Habitat Objective,
				Open Space Objective, or Recreation Objective when the percent of the estimated
				Nonfederal Capital Cost spent for meeting an Objective is at least twenty
				percent;
(f) Five percent if at
				least five percent but less than ten percent of the estimated Nonfederal
				Capital Cost funds a combination of habitat improvements, acquisition and
				preservation of Open Space, and recreation improvements;
(g) Ten percent if at least ten percent but
				less than fifteen percent of the estimated Nonfederal Capital Cost funds a
				combination of habitat improvements, acquisition and preservation of Open
				Space, and recreation improvements;
(h) Fifteen percent if at least fifteen
				percent but less than twenty percent of the estimated Nonfederal Capital Cost
				funds a combination of habitat improvements, acquisition and preservation of
				Open Space, and recreation improvements;
(i) Twenty percent if twenty percent or more
				of the estimated Nonfederal Capital Cost funds a combination of habitat
				improvements, acquisition and preservation of Open Space, and recreation
				improvements;
(j) Up to twenty
				percent for a significant contribution to the Disadvantaged Area
				Objective;
(k) Five percent for a
				significant contribution to the State Facilities Objective by benefiting one
				State Facility;
(l) Ten percent for
				a significant contribution to the State Facilities Objective by benefiting two
				State Facilities;
(m) Fifteen
				percent for a significant contribution to the State Facilities Objective by
				benefiting three State Facilities;
(n) Twenty percent for a significant
				contribution to the State Facilities Objective by benefiting four or more State
				Facilities.
