      2. (B) For projects receiving funding for advanced design for at least one but not all School Buildings on the project site pursuant to Section 1859.82.1(b)(4)(B), the Board will apportion an amount not to exceed 40 percent of the Facility Hardship Square Footage Grant less any district funds available for the project pursuant to Section 1859.81(a).
      3. (C) For projects receiving funding for advanced design for Rehabilitation Costs pursuant to Section 1859.82.1(c)(4)(A), the Board will apportion an amount not to exceed 25 percent of the Rehabilitation Costs determined pursuant to Section 1859.82.1(c)(4)(A) less any district funds available for the project pursuant to Section 1859.81(a).
   3. (3) Advanced funding for site shall be provided pursuant to 1859.82.1(b)(4)(A)4. The district is eligible for advanced funding for site acquisition as calculated pursuant to 1859.81.1.
   4. (4) The amount apportioned for advanced design is an estimate of the funds needed for design, engineering, and other pre-construction project costs. Qualifying districts may request a separate Apportionment for the design and for site acquisition for the same facility hardship project.

   5. (5) The district is required to submit an Approved Application for funding and an updated Form SAB 58-01 for projects funded in accordance to 1859.82.1(c) or site development worksheet for projects funded in accordance to 1859.82.1(b), that reflects the final approved drawings for the project within:

      1. (A) 18 months from the date of Apportionment if the project scope will be for repair or replacement on the same site.
      2. (B) 24 months from the date of Apportionment if the project scope is for the replacement of School Building(s) which will be located on a replacement site.
   6. (6) If the district does not submit the Approved Application for funding within the timelines required by Section (2) above, the application will be reduced to eligible costs incurred.
   7. (7) Upon receipt of the Approved Application, the application will be reviewed for conformance with all program laws and regulations.
   8. (8) Any funding provided in Section 1859.82.1 shall be offset by any funding previously provided for the project.

“School Building” for the purposes of this Section shall have the same definition as Education Code Section 17283 and shall also exclude any districtwide administrative facilities.

A district is eligible for Facility Hardship funding to repair, replace, or construct School Buildings or related required components that are currently causing a health and safety threat to the students and/or staff. Projects solely to replace components that have reached the end of their useful life, perform routine maintenance or repair, issues resulting from the deferment of routine maintenance or repair, lack of current code compliance, or the addition of components that were not previously existing, do not meet the qualifying criteria of the program. However, this work may be incorporated into a qualifying Facility Hardship application if it is required to be completed to gain DSA approval.

Beginning 90 days after the effective date of this Section [November 29, 2020], Approved Applications requesting Facility Hardship Program funding shall be submitted to OPSC within 12 months of DSA approval for the scope of work mitigating the identified health and safety threat. If the project does not require DSA approval, then the Approved Application for funding must be received within the 6 months following project completion, as demonstrated by the earliest of the following: the date that the notice of completion of the project has been filed; occupancy of any portion of the project Facility; or when the School Buildings or components of the School Buildings in the project are currently in use by the district. If a district demonstrates that extreme or unusual circumstances prevented the submission of an eligible application within the applicable timeline outlined above, OPSC may allow up to an additional 6 months for submittal.
