Statute text

Funds shall be allocated to districts, and shall be subject to administrative terms and conditions as follows:

(a)Available funds shall be distributed to districts taking into consideration the population of the area, the severity of the air quality problems experienced by the population, and the historical allocation of the program funds, except that the south coast district shall be allocated a percentage of the total funds available to districts that is proportional to the percentage of the total state population residing within the jurisdictional boundaries of that district. For the purposes of this subdivision, population shall be determined by the state board based on the most recent data provided by the Department of Finance. The allocation to the south coast district shall be subtracted from the total funds available to districts. Each district, except the south coast district, shall be awarded a minimum allocation of two hundred thousand dollars ($200,000), and the remainder, which shall be known as the “allocation amount,” shall be allocated to all districts as follows:

(1)The state board shall distribute 35 percent of the allocation amount to the districts in proportion to the percentage of the total residual state population that resides within each district’s boundaries. For purposes of this paragraph, “total residual state population” means the total state population, less the total population that resides within the south coast district.
