(c) Consider only applications for projects which:
(1) Have been determined pursuant to paragraph (b) to benefit the habitat of the sage grouse; and

(2) Can be implemented immediately upon approval by the Commission; and

(d) Not consider an application for a grant that is determined by the Commission to be primarily for the purpose of acquiring equipment.

2. As used in this section, "Sagebrush Ecosystem Technical Team" means the interagency technical team created by the Governor pursuant to Executive Order No. 2012-19 to support the Sagebrush Ecosystem Council created by NRS 232.162.
