Cal. Code Regs. tit. 14 § 4970.15.2

Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 25, June 21, 2024
Section 4970.15.2 - Restoration
(a) An Application evaluation panel of not less than three (3) individuals shall score Applications deemed compliant with these regulations. The Application evaluation panel shall use the Applicant's responses to general criteria and Project-specific criteria to determine a Project score. The steps for determining the final score are as follows (refer to Table 5 for an example):
(1) Calculate the sum of the points received on the general criteria and the points received on the Project-specific criteria. Divide that number by the sum of the total possible points for the general criteria and the total possible points for the Project specific criteria, and
(2) Convert the result of the calculation to a percentage which is the final score.

Table 5 -- Example of Score Calculation for Restoration Projects
Final Score = Actual Score / Possible Score
General Criteria90 of 120
Project-specific Criteria78 of 83
(90 + 78) / (120 + 83) = 0.8276
0.8276 x 100 = 82.76% = Final Score

(b) Eligible Projects shall be ranked by score. Projects shall be funded in order of score from highest to lowest until available funds are exhausted.
(c) In the event Projects have the same score, Projects will be funded in the order of request amount starting with the smallest request amount. If more than one Project has the same request amount, the OHMVR Division will utilize a "random selection" method to break ties and determine which Project will receive funding.
(d) Projects at the funding cut-off line may require modifications to the Project Description and Project Cost Estimate to reflect reduced available funding. The modification shall be completed prior to the OHMVR Division preparing and executing the Project Agreement.
(e) The OHMVR Division will consult with staff from the Wildlife Conservation Board during the evaluation and scoring process.
