Section XIII-18911 - Public Invitation for Grant Applications

A. Pursuant to R.S. 22:2361 et seq., and Regulation 125, the commissioner shall issue an initial public invitation to property insurers to submit applications for grants under the Incentive Program.

B. The invitation shall be published for at least a 30-day period on the department's web site and in state and national insurance journals and publications as the commissioner deems appropriate.

C. The invitation shall describe the Incentive Program and provide general information about the grant application process.

D. The invitation shall set a deadline for receipt of grant applications. All grant applications should be submitted to the department either by certified mail, return receipt requested, actual delivery by a commercial interstate courier, or electronic mail. Failure to timely submit a grant application may render the property insurer ineligible to participate in the Incentive Program. However, for good cause shown, the commissioner may extend the deadline and consider applications received after the deadline or give a property insurer the opportunity to cure a non-substantive deficiency in the application.

E. In the event that all monies in the Incentive Program Fund are not allocated in response to the first invitation, the commissioner may issue a second invitation for grant applications in the form and pursuant to the procedures utilized for the first invitation.

F. In the event that all monies in the Incentive Program Fund are not allocated in response to the second invitation, the commissioner may issue a third invitation for grant applications in the form and pursuant to the procedures utilized for the first and second invitations.
