Pennsylvania Small Business Advantage Grant Program; Notice of Program Guideline Modifications

[36 Pa.B. 5833]
[Saturday, September 16, 2006]

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) announces a minor change to the guidelines for the Small Business Advantage Grant Program. In the first few weeks of this fiscal year, the Small Business Advantage Grant Program received an unusually large number of applications for one specific category of project--anti-idling equipment for PA small trucking businesses. Because of the increased volume of applications, the program had reached the limits of funding for that specific project category by early August. On August 10, 2006, the Small Business Advantage Program announced that it had ceased accepting new applications for anti-idling projects. To fund eligible applications received before the August 10 announcement, the Department has authorized a minor change to the guidelines to increase the proportion of funding that it may apply to this project category from $250,000 to $290,000. Although this program modification will enable the Department to fund several additional eligible applications under this specific project category, the maximum amount allowable for any individual grant--$7,500--will remain unchanged.

   Small Business Advantage is still accepting applications for all other types of eligible projects. Applications are available on the Department's website at www.depweb. state.pa.us (DEP Keywords: ''SBAdvantage'') or by contacting the Department of Environmental Protection, Office of Energy and Technology Deployment, 15th Floor, Rachel Carson State Office Building, 400 Market Street, P. O. Box 8772, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8772, (717) 783-8411.

   For questions regarding an existing application, con- tact Dave Barnes, Office of Energy and Technology Deployment, Small Business Ombudsman's Office, at (717) 783-8411 or epadvantagegrant@state.pa.us.
