A municipality must submit payment requests to the authority on a form provided by the authority.
Payments may be requested monthly as construction on individual sewage treatment systems is completed and approved by the inspector.
Before payment of any part of the grant is made, the municipality must certify to the agency that the payment conditions under part 7077.0750 have been fulfilled and invoices that document incurred site evaluation, system design, and construction costs for each upgraded or replaced individual sewage treatment system will be kept on file for state audit purposes.
Within 30 days of agency receipt of payment request, the commissioner will determine whether payment will be made. If the commissioner determines that payment will not be made, the commissioner will advise the municipality of the deficiencies in the request. If the commissioner determines that payment conditions have been met, the commissioner will certify to the authority that payment should be made.
