The department's Chief Financial Officer or that officer's designee is the contact within the department for the purpose of providing information and assistance to potential applicants. Assistance may include non-binding advice, counsel, and consultation regarding all aspects of a possible eligible project. If the executive director determines that the project is otherwise eligible for assistance, that the department is authorized by state law to provide assistance, and that department resources are available, the department may provide engineering and other technical assistance to aid potential applicants in developing an application. Any advice, assistance, or aid provided will not constitute a commitment or liability on the part of the department or the commission. Potential applicants are encouraged to communicate with the contact at the earliest possible date.
