The answer provided on the State Energy Program DBA FAQ website was intended to cover any program, residential or commercial, in which the ARRA-funded grant/ rebate is only for the purchase of materials, supplies, and equipment. A rebate only for the purchase of HVAC equipment would be exempt from the DBA requirements because no ARRA funds are being used for construction/installation of the equipment at either a residential or commercial site.
