21				Ideal - What do we envision?
22				Short	Allow federal diesel grants managed by DEQ to support the range of projects that are allowed under federal grant guidelines.
23				Long	Initial authority for DEQ diesel grants focused on cost effective strategies not readiliy supported by other financial resources. Interest among affected parties has shifted to a broader range of strategies. State funds and tax credits have not been available but federal funds remain available and can support the broader range of projects that parties are interested in. This rule allows DEQ to manage federal grants in line wiht the more expansive federal grant guidelines.
