  1. Used Oil Competitive Grants’ Cycle Frequency and Funding Levels (Used Oil Recycling Fund, FY 2006/07 and FY 2007/08)

  2. Oil Program Statute • Grant and Outreach Programs: • Block Grants (administered annually) • Competitive Grants (OG, UNP, URD) • Annual award not required • Funding is continuously appropriated - Outreach and Education

  3. Funding Framework Funding Framework: • Cycle Frequency • Funding Levels

  4. 1. Cycle Frequency • Local Program Need • Regular & predictable funding • Time to evaluate effectiveness • Three Options for Cycle Frequency: • Annual • Biennial (Board adopted Nov. 2001) • Other Cycle Options

  5. Annual Cycle: Recommended • Each grant is awarded annually • Effects are: • Most responsive to fluctuations in Fund Condition • All Stakeholders eligible for grants • Potential for overlapping grants • Lack of program evaluation • Lower funding levels for each cycle

  6. Biennial Cycle: Not Recommended • Each grant awarded every two years • Current Board model • Biennial Cycles have been successful: • Predictability • Funding flexibility • Less focus on administration, more on project management & evaluation • Does not limit available funding for local government

  7. Other Cycle Options: Not Recommended • Any cycle other than Annual/Biennial • Effects are: • Flexibility on when to award • Unpredictable cycles • Decreased administrative tasks • Funding flexibility

  8. 2. Funding Levels • Two Issues: • Total annual Competitive Grant funding • Funding amount for individual Competitive Grants

  9. Statutory Framework for Funding Levels Total Resources – Mandatory Expenses “ Remaining Balance”

  10. Statutory for Funding Levels for Grants: 60% Minimum Grant Percent of Remaining Balance OG Minimum 40% UNP Minimum 10% URD 10-15% maximum

  11. A. Total Annual Competitive Grant Funding • Other Board Options: • Increase total grant $ up to 80% • Decrease total grant $ below 60% • Preferred Option – 60% level • Prudent carry-over • Obligation to stakeholders • Facilitates local planning

  12. Funding Framework: Annual Cycles after 4 yrs • Scenario 1: No Grants in 06/07; Annual Grants Year 2 Result: 7 OG grants 1.5 NP/R&D grants • Scenario 2: Statutory Min. 06/07 Annual Grants Year 2 Result: 6 OG grants 1.5 NP/R&D grants

  13. Funding Framework: Biennial Cycles after 4 yrs • Scenario 3: Biennial 15/45/60 Result: 3.8 OG grants 6.7 NP grants 2.2 RD grants • Scenario 4: 15/15/60 Result: 6.7 OG grants 2.3 NP/R&D grants each

  14. B. Preferred Funding Framework • Annual Cycle • Defer Grant Funding until FY 2007/08 • 60% total annual limit for competitive grants • UNP = 10% of remaining balance • URD = 10% of remaining balance • OG = 40% of remaining balance • Joint Solicitation of 3 Grants • Offer Grants earlier (July-Sept)

  15. Recommended Action for Cycle Frequency & Funding Levels • Choose • Option #2 Annual Cycles beginning in FY 2007/08 • Adopt Resolution #2007-35 with revisions
