Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 9, September 20, 2024

A. To the base priority value indicated for each project according to the preceding table is added additional numerical value for each of the following purposes:

1. an amount not to exceed 1.0 in value, representing the ratio of persons benefitted directly by the project per $100 of total project cost (including federal grant cost share, if any). This additive value factor encourages projects with the greatest public benefit;

2. a bonus in the amount of 10 times the decimal value by which the federal, local and other non-state shares of the project cost exceed 75 percent of the total project construction costs. For example, a project with 90 percent federal and local funding would receive a bonus of 10 x (0.90 - 0.75) = 1.5 points. This bonus encourages and rewards a maximum use of available federal, entity and private funding resources.
