If an allocation balance is $10,000, and the application qualifies for 50 per cent grant funding of the contract value (i.e. government pays for half of the project and the Licensee/WIP pays for the other half), a contract amount of $20,000 or less could be funded at the 50 per cent level. However, if the contract amount exceeds $20,000 then the maximum grant application amount would still be $10,000.
Application Sequencing
• Licensees/WIPs must plan the required closure work for each site and ensure that the associated applications submitted by their Contractors are submitted and approved separately, in the appropriate sequence. An application for the next planned work activity can be submitted after the current work activity is complete. A single application for all closure work on one inactive site – from suspension to final remediation and reclamation – will not be accepted. To apply for the following work on the same site, separate applications must be submitted for each of the following work activities, in the following sequence: o abandonment, or abandonment and a Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) if the Phase 1 ESA will be conducted at the time of abandonment or immediately afterwards
o Phase 1 ESA o Phase 2 ESA o remediation o reclamation
• Because this sequential work is required, OFS contracts that have “subject-to” clauses referencing completion of required abandonment work or Phase 1 ESAs are acceptable. Work Activities • Applications for the same work activity (i.e. remediation) at the same time by different Contractors will be accepted as long as the scope of work in each OFS contract is clearly distinguishable from the other work being done for that activity.
