Entities considered to be eligible applicants are state, county, and municipal ports authorized to operate in the State. In order to obtain assistance under the Ports Grant Program, an Entity's governing board (the "Governing Board") must submit an application to MDA, which will forward copies of such application to members of the Ports Improvements Fund Advisory Committee for review. Within thirty (30) days of receipt of the application, the Ports Improvements Fund Advisory Committee will make a written recommendation to MDA specifically outlining their assessment of the application.
