("NOFA") dated October 2, 2017, under the AHSC Program, established under
Division 44, Part 1 of the Public Resources Code, commencing with Section
75200. Funding for the AHSC Program is provided from the Greenhouse Gas
Reduction Fund, an account established to receive Cap -and -Trade auction
proceeds.
D. SGC is authorized to approve funding allocations for the AHSC Program,
subject to the terms and conditions of the NOFA, Program Guidelines,
Application Package, and Standard Agreement. HCD is authorized to administer
the approved funding allocations of the AHSC Program.
