What if I am unable to meet the time frame for project implementation as defined under the Sunset Clause?
This policy has been instituted to help reduce the amount of un-obligated ITEP funds which are subject to federal rescissions. If the required time frames can not be met reasonable justification must be provided to the department. Typically, as long as the project sponsor is making a ‘good faith effort’ to maintain the schedule the intent of the Sunset Clause has been met.
