FAIR POLITICAL PRACTICES COMMISSION NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Fair Polit - ical Practices Commission, pursuant to the authority vested in it by Sections 82011, 87303, and 87304 of the Government Code to review proposed conflict–of– interest codes, will review the proposed/amended conflict–of–interest codes of the following: CONFLICT–OF–INTEREST CODES AMENDMENT M U LT I – COU N T Y: Del Puerto Water District Nor theaster n JPA Transbay Joint Powers Authority A written comment period has been established commencing on January 13, 2023 and closing on Feb- ruary 27, 2023.

Written comments should be directed to the Fair Political Practices Commission, Attention Daniel Vo, 1102 Q Street, Suite 3000, Sacramento, California 95811.

If a public hear - ing is requested, the proposed codes will be submitted to the Commission for review. The Executive Director of the Commission will review the above–referenced conflict–of–interest codes, proposed pursuant to Government Code Sec - tion 87300, which designate, pursuant to Government Code

Section 87302, employees who must disclose certain investments, interests in real property and income. The Executive Director of the Commission, upon his or its own motion or at the request of any interested person, will approve, or revise and approve, or return the proposed codes to the agency for revision and re– submission within 60 days without further notice.

Section 17514. EFFECT ON HOUSING COSTS AND BUSINESSES Compliance with the codes has no potential effect on housing costs or on private persons, businesses or small businesses.

TITLE 4. SCHOOL FINANCE AUTHORITY DIVISION 15,

ARTICLE 5, CHARTER ACCESS TO BANK LOAN ENHANCEMENT (CHARTER ABLE) PROGRAM NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the California School Finance Authority (Authority), organized pur - suant to Sections 17170 through 17199.6 of the Edu - cation Code, proposes to amend the regulations de - scribed below after considering all comments, objec - tions, and recommendations regarding the proposed action. Any person interested may present written statements or arguments relevant to the proposed ac - tion to the attention of the Contact Person as listed in this Notice no later than Monday, February 27, 2023.

The Authority Board, upon its own motion or at the request of any interested party, may thereafter adopt the proposal substantially as described below or may modify such proposals if such modifications are suffi- ciently related to the original text. With the exception of technical or grammatical changes, the full text of any modified proposal will be available for 15 days prior to its adoption from the person(

s) designated in this Notice as the Contact Person and will be mailed to those persons who submit statements related to this proposal or who have requested notification of any changes to the proposal. PROPOSED REGULATORY ACTION The Authority proposes to adopt Sections 10200.8 through 10200.15 of Title 4, Division 15,

Article 5 of the California Code of Regulations as permanent. The regulations implement the Authority’s responsibilities related to the Charter Access to Bank Loan Enhance - ment Program (Charter ABLE Program or Program). AUTHORITY AND REFERENCE Authority:

Section 17179 and 17180 of the Education Code.

Section 17180(

o) allows the Authority to adopt regulations in order to administer the Charter ABLE Program. Reference: Sections 17173, 17180, 47604, 47604.1, 47604.2, 47605 and 47612.5(e)(1) of Education Code. INFORMATIVE DIGEST/POLICY STATEMENT OVERVIEW The Authority was created in 1985 to assist school districts and community college districts in financing school construction projects (Education Code

section 17170, et seq.). The Authority is authorized to adopt bylaws for the regulation and conduct of its business, and the Authority is vested with all powers reasonably necessary to carry out its powers and responsibilities (Education Code sections 17179 and 17180). Charter ABLE Program regulation became effective March 21, 2022 and were established as emergency regulations in the California Code of Regulations in Title 4, Division 15,

Article 5. (OAL Regulatory Ac - tion Number 2022–0310–04E). These emergency regulations were readopted on September 21, 2022 (OAL Regulatory Action Number 2022–0915–01EE), and again on December 19, 2022. (OAL Regulatory Action Number 2022–1209–01EE). These emergency regulations are set to expire on March 20, 2023. In order to continue the adminis - tration of the Charter ABLE Program, the Authority is proposing to make these emergency regulations permanent through OAL ’s permanent rulemaking process.

The proposed regulations set forth have not changed since their original submission through the emergency rulemaking process. These proposed regulations set the Authority’s policies and procedures for administer- ing the Charter ABLE Program, including but not lim- ited to

definitions; minimum eligibility requirements; application submission and content requirements; pro- cedures for apportionment of grant funds and appeals; and policies governing grantee obligations, responsi - bilities, and approval of grant use change. After conducting an evaluation of any related regu - lations on this matter, the Authority has concluded that these are the only regulations dealing with the Charter ABLE Program, and therefore, these proposed regula- tions do not present any inconsistencies or incompati- bilities with existing state regulations. The proposed regulations are summarized below.

Informative Digest The Authority received a grant award under the U.S. Department of Education’s Credit Enhancement for Charter Schools Facilities Program (CFDA #84.354) pursuant to Title V, Part B, Subpart 2 of the Elemen - tary and Secondary Education Act. This grant, award- ed in 2019, provides $20,000,000 for the purpose of funding debt service reserves for the financing of ac -

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2023, VOLUME NUMBER 2-Z 7 quisition, renovation, or construction of charter school facilities, or the refinancing of existing charter school facility debt. In February 2021, the Authority and the US Dept of Ed. (DOE) signed a performance agreement allowing the Authority to use Charter ABLE Program funding to assist public schools with COVID–19 related issues through the ASAP and TRAN programs, respectively. These programs were discontinued in late 2021, and funds were transferred back on December 31, 2021 to the Charter ABLE Program.

On February 7, 2022, the Authority’s Board approved the emergency regula - tions at its board meeting. The emergency regulations were adopted on March 21, 2022 and readopted Sep - tember 21, 2022 and again on December 19, 2022. The proposed regulations are the same as the readopted emergency regulations.

Section 10200.8. Purpose. The purpose of the regulations is set forth as the implementation of the Authority’s DOE grant through the establishment of a program to be known as the Charter ABLE Program, intended to provide credit enhancement to facilitate financing of the construction and/or renovation of fa - cilities for California public charter schools.

Section 10200.9.

Definitions. Various words and phrases used in the regulations are defined. This is necessary to provide clarity and specificity where words of common usage may have a meaning specific to the Charter ABLE Program. The

section also es - tablished the Charter ABLE Program Application — Form CSFA 03–22 (rev. March 2022) and is incorpo - rated herein by reference.

Section 10200.10. Applicant Eligibility Criteria . This

section sets forth the three conditions that must be met for an applicant to be eligible to apply for an award for Charter ABLE Program funds as well as setting forth the source from which the information will be sought. The regulations clarify that not only must an approved charter be in place and current at the time of application but must remain in place and current through the application review and approval process. In addition, the charter school must be in good standing with its Charter Authorizer and in com- pliance with the terms of its charter at the time the application is submitted.

The regulations clarify that whether the school is in good standing and in compli - ance with the terms of its charter will be determined based on information obtain from the Charter Autho - rizer. Finally, to be eligible to apply for an award under the Charter ABLE Program, the school must be estab- lished pursuant to Education Code

section 47600 et seq. and meet the federal definition of Charter School as set forth in

section 5210(

l) of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (20 USCA

section 7221 (i)), as amended by the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001. This provides predictability and uniform application of Charter ABLE Program rules as well as informing potential applicants and the public of the program standards and the source that will be used to verify applicant good standing and compliance with the terms of its charter.

Section 10200.11. Award Allocation and Eligible Use of Program Funds . This

section describes the approved uses of Charter ABLE Program funds and explains how awards will be allocated. Subdivision (

a) indicates that the purpose of awards is to fund the primary debt service reserve requirement for debt as - sociated with the renovation and/or construction of charter school facilities. The limit for awards is set as up to a maximum annual debt service per Financing as defined in

Section 10200.9, with an award dollar limit of $2 million. This provides specificity regarding both the purpose of and amount of awards. Subdivisions (b)–(

d) describe award allocation. Awards shall be held in trust and only released to awardees upon the Authority’s or an Authority’s ap - proved trustee’s approval. Conditions for release will be determined by the Authority, in collaboration with all lending parties, prior to closing of the financing. When Program funds are no longer needed for the au- thorized purposes, they shall be released and returned to the Authority. If the awardee does not use the Pro - gram funds by closing the financing within six months of approval, the award will expire. Additional time may be granted on a case–by–case basis.

These provi- sions are necessary to identify the responsible parties and relevant time frame for award allocation. Subdivision (

e) establishes an application filing fee for the Program to offset staff time devoted to eligibil- ity and application review.

Section 10200.12. Application Review and Evalu - ation Criteria. This

section describes the availability of the Program application and sets out the criteria used to determine awards. Subdivision (

a) establishes that applications will be made available to the extent that funding and appropriations are available, and will be provided on a first come, first served basis. The ap- plication period will close when funding is no longer available. This provision is necessary to provide no - tice to potential applicants that the application period is dependent upon the availability of funds and that, assuming Program criteria are satisfied, awards will be made on a first come, first served basis. Subdivision (

b) describes the criteria by which ap - plications will be evaluated and awards made and pro- vides that applicants must meet at least one criterion but will receive increasing preference for each criteria met. The criteria are either: 1) location in a district or county where at least 50% of students do not meet the state standard for proficiency in either math or lan- guage on the state assessment; 2) location in a district or county with more than 50% of the student popu -

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2023, VOLUME NUMBER 2-Z 8 lation eligible for free or reduced–price lunch; or 3) more than 50% or current or projected enrollment are eligible for free or reduced–price lunch. These criteria are necessary to meet the program goal of providing preference to schools serving communities and fami - lies in need. This provision provides clarity in how the Authority intends to identify such schools.

Section 10200.13. Content of Application. This

section sets forth the items that must be submitted to the Authority as part of an application for Program funds. This list is necessary to detail the specific in - formation and documents required as part of a Pro - gram application, the relevant time frame for certain documents, and the reservation that the Authority may request any additional information deemed necessary to evaluate the application. This provision is necessary to provide consistency, clarity, and predictability for Program applicants.

Section 10200.14. Audits and Conflicts-of- Interest. Subdivision (

a) reserves the ability for the Authority to conduct or require audits to ensure com - pliance with the requirements and terms of the Pro - gram, the related financing program, and the regula - tions, and requires awardees to retain documentation and financial data for three years after the certification of completion and repayment of debt or three years after the Program funds are no longer held in reserve, whichever is longer. These requirements are necessary to put awardees on notice of the potential for audit and to notify awardees of required document retention requirements. Subdivision (

b) establishes that the U.S. Depart - ment of Education conflict–of–interest rules apply to the Program. This provision is necessary to provide clarity and specificity to awardees and to assure Cal - ifornians that the Program will be administered free from apparent or actual conflicts of interest. Subdivision (

c) establishes that the Program will be administered consistent with the federal post–award procurement requirements of 2 CFR 200.317 through 2 CFR 200.327 requiring federal grant awardees to develop written procurement procedures and conduct procurement transactions in a manner that provides open and free competition. In addition, this rule pre - vents any employee, officer, or agent of an awardee from participating in the selection, award, or admin - istration of any contract paid by federal funds if a real or apparent conflict–of–interests exists.

This provi - sion is necessary to provide clarity and specificity to awardees and to assure Californians that the Program will be administered free from apparent or actual con- flicts of interest. Subdivision (

d) reserves the right of the Authority to conduct site visits to any school facility or project receiving Program funds. This provision is necessary to provide notice to awardees and for specificity and clarity regarding Program administration. Subdivision (

e) requires awardees to routinely sub - mit documentation of continued eligibility on at least an annual basis. This provisions in necessary to pro - vide notice to awardees of Program requirements and to provide specificity and clarity regarding Program administration. Subdivision (

f) requires awardees to comply with all State and Federal requirements throughout the award period. This provision is necessary to establish that awardees are required to comply with both State and Federal requirements for the entire award period. The regulation provides clarity and specificity regarding Program expectations.

Section 10200.15. Funding Contingency. This

section provides that the release of Program funds is dependent upon the execution of a performance agreement between the Authority and the U.S. De - partment of Education and that the Program itself is contingent upon the receipt and availability of funds. This provision is necessary to describe the funding contingency of the Program and to provide clarity and predictability.

Other Matters Prescribed by Statutes Applicable to the Specific State Agency or to any Specific Regulation or Class of Regulations No other matters prescribed by statute are applica - ble to the Authority or to any specific regulation or class of regulations pursuant to

Section 11346.5(a) (4) of the California Government Code pertaining to the proposed regulations or the Authority.

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2023, VOLUME NUMBER 2-Z 9 MANDATE ON LOCAL AGENCIES OR SCHOOL DISTRICTS The Authority has determined the proposed regu - lations do not impose a mandate on local agencies or school districts. EVALUATION OF INCONSISTENCY AND INCOMPATIBILITY The Authority performed a search in the California Code of Regulations and the proposed regulations are neither inconsistent nor incompatible with existing regulation.

FISCAL IMPACT The Authority has instituted an application filing fee to offset costs associated with Authority staff re - viewing applications and various federal and state re - porting requirements for the grant program. Applica - tion review includes, but is not limited to, reviewing and verifying application content, ensuring program eligibility, preparing grant agreements, staff reports and resolutions, liaising with program attorneys and financing team members, ensuring grant funds are disbursed to the trustee, and closing document review associated with the financing.

Reporting requirements include, but are not limited to, staff reports, multiple meetings with federal program officials, liaising with program attorneys and borrow trustees, balance con - firmations, and account reconciliation. The $1,000 fee was determined to be adequate enough to cover costs related to staff time, while not being cost prohibitive for applicants.

Initial Determination Regarding any Significant, Statewide Adverse Economic Impact Directly Affecting Business The Authority has made an initial determination that the proposed regulations will not have any signif- icant, statewide adverse economic impact directly af - fecting businesses, including the ability of California businesses to compete with businesses in other states.

CSFA has made the following initial determinations: ● Mandate on local agencies and school districts: None. ● Cost or savings to any state agency: None. ● Cost to any local agency or school district re - quiring reimbursement pursuant to Government Code

sec. 17500 et seq: None. ● Cost or savings in federal funding to the state: None. ● Other non–discretionary cost or savings imposed upon local agencies: None. Effect on Small Businesses The Authority has determined that the adoption of the proposed regulations will not affect small busi - ness. The Charter ABLE Program is a voluntary grant program available to charter schools to assist in the costs of charter school facilities.

Cost Impacts on Representative Person or Business The Authority is not aware of any cost impacts that a representative private person or business would nec- essarily incur in reasonable compliance with the pro - posed action. Statement of the Results of the EIA Assessment of Effect on Jobs and Business Expansion, Elimination or Creation Adoption of these regulations will not create or eliminate jobs within California, nor create new busi - nesses or eliminate existing businesses within Cali - fornia.

The proposed regulations could likely impact the expansion of businesses currently doing business within the State of California. This program will en - hance conduit financings for charter school facilities. These facilities are often an expansion of the associ - ated charter school organizations to serve more stu - dents. It should be noted that not all charter school facility related financings are expansions. Some fi - nancings are replacement facilities, renovations, or site improvements.

Assessment of Effect to the Health and Welfare of California Residents, Worker Safety, and the State’s Environment The purpose of the program and proposed regula - tions is to set forth administrative criteria and require- ments for administering this grant program. The Au - thority do not expect any anticipated benefits to work- er safety or the State’s environment. However, while each funding is different, funding for facilities may allow schools to free up assets potentially allowing ac- tions resulting in improved worker safety.

Additional- ly, there may be a positive effect on the welfare of some California residents. As the intent of the program is to enhance financings related to charter school facilities, the Program and its proposed regulations have the po- tential to directly benefit the welfare of students and their related communities. Cost Impact on Housing The proposed regulations will not have any effect on housing costs. REASONABLE ALTERNATIVES In accordance with Government Code

section 11346.5(a)(13), the Authority must determine that no reasonable alternative to the regulations considered by the Authority or that has otherwise been identified and brought to the attention of the Authority, would be

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2023, VOLUME NUMBER 2-Z 10 more effective in carrying out the purpose for which the regulations are proposed or would be as effective and less burdensome to affected private persons than the regulations, or would be more cost–effective to af- fected private persons and equally effective in imple - menting the statutory policy or other provision of law. The Authority invites interested persons to present statements with respect to alternatives to the proposed regulations during the written comment period.

PROPOSED REGULATORY ACTION The Authority proposes to adopt Sections 10200.16 through 10200.23 of Title 4 of the California Code of Regulations (Regulations) as permanent regulations. The Regulations implement Authority’s responsibili - ties related to the Charter Finance Enhancement Pro - gram (Charter FinE Program or Program). AUTHORITY AND REFERENCE Authority:

Section 17179 and 17180 of the Education Code.

Section 17180(

o) allows the Authority to adopt regulations in order to administer the Charter FinE Program. Reference: Sections 17173, 17180, 47604, 47604.1, 47604.2, 47605 and 47612.5(e)(1) of Education Code. INFORMATIVE DIGEST/POLICY STATEMENT OVERVIEW The Authority was created in 1985 to assist school districts and community college districts in financing school construction projects (Education Code

The Authority is authorized to adopt bylaws for the regulation and conduct of its business, and the Authority is vested with all powers reasonably necessary to carry out its powers and responsibilities (Education Code sections 17179 and 17180).

Informative Digest The Authority received a grant award under the U.S. Department of Education’s Credit Enhancement for Charter Schools Facilities Program (CFDA #84.354) (Grant). This federal grant is authorized under Title V, Part B, Subpart 2 of the Elementary and Second - ary Education Act. This Grant, awarded in late 2020, provides $10,000,000 for the purpose of funding debt service reserves for the financing of acquisition, ren - ovation, or construction of charter school facilities, or the refinancing of existing charter school facility debt.

Anticipated Benefits of the Proposed Regulations The proposed regulations will benefit charter schools by enhancing financings issued by the Author- ity. The proposed regulations will also benefit charter schools by leveraging a percentage of the grant award annually to secure and lower costs associated with the financing of the purchase, construction, and/or reno - vation of facilities.

Other benefits include reducing pre–development and acquisition borrowing costs for schools, ensuring the grant program is implemented in a timely manner, providing preference to schools serving communities and families in need by assigning additional points to

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2023, VOLUME NUMBER 2-Z 12 schools that meet specially targeted indicators, e.g., the percentage of students eligible for free and/or re - duced–price meals (FRPM).

The proposed regulations will benefit charter schools (1) serving low–income students, with at least 50% of students eligible for FRPM; (2) having at least 50% of students that do not meet the State standard for proficiency in either math or language on state as - sessments; or (3) located in a school district or county where at least 15% of public schools have been identi- fied for improvement or corrective action.

The proposed regulations, in addition to other re - quirements, set forth eligibility criteria for all appli - cants, the eligible uses of grant funds, the evaluation criteria for the Authority’s approval of applications for awards, and

definitions of terms, as well as special provisions and requirements. The Authority is in the final steps of finalizing the associated Performance Agreement with the U.S. De - partment of Education (DOE). On December 15, 2022, the Authority’s Board approved the program regula - tions at its board meeting. The proposed regulations are summarized below:

Section 10200.16. Purpose. The purpose of the regulations is set forth as the implementation of the Authority’s DOE grant through a program to be known as the Charter FinE Program, intended to pro - vide credit enhancement to facilitate financing of the construction and/or renovation of facilities for Califor- nia public charter schools.

Section 10200.17.

Definitions. Various words and phrases used in the regulations are defined. This is necessary to provide clarity and specificity where words of common usage may have a meaning specific to the Charter FinE Program. The

section also estab - lished the Charter FinE Program Application — Form CSFA 12–22 (rev. December 2022) and is incorporat- ed herein by reference.

Section 10200.18. Applicant Eligibility Criteria. This

section sets forth the three conditions that must be met for an applicant to be eligible to apply for an award for Charter FinE Program funds as well as set - ting forth the source from which the information will be sought. The regulations clarify that not only must an approved charter be in place and current at the time of application but must remain in place and current through the application review and approval process. In addition, the charter school must be in good stand - ing with its Charter Authorizer and in compliance with the terms of its charter at the time the application is submitted.

The regulations clarify that whether the school is in good standing and in compliance with the terms of its charter will be determined based on in - formation obtain from the Charter Authorizer. Finally, to be eligible to apply for an award under the Charter FinE Program, the school must be established pursu - ant to Education Code

section 47600 et seq. and meet the federal definition of Charter School as set forth in

section 5210(

l) of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (20 USCA

section 7221 (i)) as amended by the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001. This provides predictability and uniform application of Charter FinE Program rules as well as informing potential applicants and the public of the Charter FinE Program standards and the source that will be used to verify applicant good standing and compliance with the terms of its charter.

Section 10200.19. Award Allocation and Eli - gible Use of Program Funds . This

section describes the approved uses of Charter FinE Program funds and explains how awards will be allocated. Subdivi - sion (

a) indicates that the purpose of awards is to fund the primary debt service reserve requirement for debt associated with the renovation and/or construction of charter school facilities. The limit for awards is set as up to a maximum annual debt service per Financing as defined in

Section 10200.17, with an award dollar limit of $2 million. This provides specificity regarding both the purpose of and amount of awards. Subdivisions (b)–(

d) describe award allocation. Awards shall be held in trust and only released to awardees upon the Authority’s or an Authority’s ap - proved trustee’s approval. Conditions for release will be determined by the Authority, in collaboration with all lending parties, prior to closing of the financing. When Charter FinE Program funds are no longer needed for the authorized purposes, they shall be re - leased and returned to the Authority. If the awardee does not use the Charter FinE Program funds by clos - ing the financing within six months of approval, the award will expire.

Additional time may be granted on a case–by–case basis. These provisions are necessary to identify the responsible parties and relevant time frame for award allocation. Subdivision (

e) establish an application filing fee for the Charter FinE Program to offset staff time devoted to eligibility and application review.

Section 10200.20. Application Review and Eval- uation Criteria. This

section describes the availability of the Charter FinE Program application and sets out the criteria used to determine awards. Subdivision (

a) establishes that applications will be made available to the extent that funding and appropriations are avail - able, and will be provided on a first–come, first served basis. The application period will close when funding is no longer available. This provision is necessary to provide notice to potential applicants that the applica- tion period is dependent upon the availability of funds and that, assuming Charter FinE Program criteria are satisfied, awards will be made on a first– come, first served basis.

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2023, VOLUME NUMBER 2-Z 13 Subdivision (

b) describes the criteria by which ap - plications will be evaluated and awards made and pro- vides that applicants must meet at least one criterion but will receive increasing preference for each criteria met.

The criteria are 1) location in a district or county where at least 50% of students do not meet the state standard for proficiency in either math or language on the state assessment; or 2) location in a district or county with more than 50% of the student population eligible for free or reduced–price lunch; or 3) more than 50% or current or projected enrollment are eli - gible for free or reduced–price lunch. These criteria are necessary to meet the program goal of providing preference to schools serving communities and fami - lies in need.

This provision provides clarity in how the Authority intends to identify such schools.

Section 10200.21. Content of Application. This

section sets forth the items that must be submitted to the Authority as part of an application for Charter FinE Program funds. This list is necessary to detail the specific information and documents required as part of a Charter FinE Program Application, the relevant time frame for certain documents, and the reservation that the Authority may request any additional infor - mation deemed necessary to evaluate the application. This provision is necessary to provide consistency, clarity, and predictability for Charter FinE Program applicants.

Section 10200.22. Audits and Conflicts of Inter- est. Subdivision (

a) reserves the ability for the Author- ity to conduct or require audits to ensure compliance with the requirements and terms of the Charter FinE Program, the related financing program, and the regu- lations, and requires awardees to retain documentation and financial data for three years after the certification of completion and repayment of debt or three years after the Charter FinE Program funds are no longer held in reserve, whichever is longer. These require - ments are necessary to put awardees on notice of the potential for audit and to notify awardees of required document retention requirements. Subdivision (

b) establishes that the U.S. Department of Education conflict–of–interest rules apply to the Charter FinE Program. This provision is necessary to provide clarity and specificity to awardees and to as - sure Californians that the Charter FinE Program will be administered free from apparent or actual conflicts of interest. Subdivision (

c) establishes that the Charter FinE Program will be administered consistent with the federal post–award procurement requirements of 2 CFR 200.317 through 2 CFR 200.327 requiring fed - eral grant awardees to develop written procurement procedures and conduct procurement transactions in a manner that provides open and free competition. In addition, this rule prevents any employee, officer, or agent of an awardee from participating in the selec - tion, award, or administration of any contract paid by federal funds if a real or apparent conflict–of–interests exists.

This provision is necessary to provide clarity and specificity to awardees and to assure Californians that the Charter FinE Program will be administered free from apparent or actual conflicts of interest. Subdivision (

d) reserves the right of the Authority to conduct site visits to any school facility or project receiving Charter FinE Program funds. This provi - sion is necessary to provide notice to awardees and for specificity and clarity regarding Charter FinE Pro- gram administration. Subdivision (

e) requires awardees to routinely sub - mit documentation of continued eligibility on at least an annual basis. This provisions in necessary to pro - vide notice to awardees of Charter FinE Program re - quirements and to provide specificity and clarity re - garding Charter FinE Program administration. Subdivision (

f) requires awardees to comply with all State and Federal requirements throughout the award period. This provision is necessary to establish that awardees are required to comply with both State and Federal requirements for the entire award period. The regulation provides clarity and specificity regarding Charter FinE Program expectations.

Section 10200.23. Funding Contingency. This

section provides that the release of Charter FinE Pro - gram funds is dependent upon the execution of a per - formance agreement between the Authority and the U.S. Department of Education and that the Charter FinE Program itself is contingent upon the receipt and availability of funds by the Department of Education. This provision is necessary to describe the funding contingency of the Charter FinE Program and to pro - vide clarity and predictability.

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2023, VOLUME NUMBER 2-Z 14 The full text of the federal regulations referenced above are found in the Code of Federal Regulations, which is available online at https://www.ecfr.gov/. Other Matters Prescribed by Statutes Applicable to the Specific State Agency or to any Specific Regulation or Class of Regulations No other matters prescribed by statute are applica - ble to the Authority or to any specific Regulation or class of Regulations pursuant to

Section 11346.5(a) (4) of the California Government Code pertaining to the proposed Regulations or the Authority. Mandate on Local Agencies or School Districts The Authority has determined the Regulations do not impose a mandate on local agencies or school districts. Evaluation of Inconsistency and Incompatibility The Authority performed a search in the California Code of Regulations and the proposed regulations are neither inconsistent nor incompatible with existing regulation.

FISCAL IMPACT The Authority has instituted an application filing fee to offset costs associated with Authority staff re - viewing applications and various federal and state reporting requirements for the grant program. Appli - cation review includes but is not limited to reviewing and verifying application content, ensuring program eligibility, preparing grant agreements, staff reports and resolutions, liaising with program attorneys and financing team members, ensuring grant funds are disbursed to the trustee, and closing document review associated with the financing.

Reporting requirements including but are not limited to staff reports, multiple meetings with federal program officials, liaising with program attorneys and borrow trustees, balance con - firmations, and account reconciliation. The $1,000 fee was determined to be adequate enough to cover costs related to staff time, while not being cost prohibitive for applicants.

Initial Determination Regarding any Significant, Statewide Adverse Economic Impact Directly Affecting Business The Authority has made an initial determination that the Regulations will not have any significant, statewide adverse economic impact directly affecting businesses, including the ability of California busi - nesses to compete with businesses in other states.

CSFA has made the following initial determinations: ● Mandate on local agencies and school districts: None. ● Cost or savings to any state agency: None. ● Cost to any local agency or school district re - quiring reimbursement pursuant to Government Code

sec. 17500 et seq: None. ● Cost or savings in federal funding to the state: None. ● Other non–discretionary cost or savings imposed upon local agencies: None. Effect on Small Businesses The Authority has determined that the adoption of the Regulations will not affect small business. The Charter FinE Program is a voluntary grant program available to Charter Schools to assist in the costs of Charter School facilities.

Cost Impacts on Representative Person or Business The Authority is not aware of any cost impacts that a representative private person or business would nec- essarily incur in reasonable compliance with the pro - posed action. Statement of the Results of the EIA Assessment of Effect on Jobs and Business Expansion, Elimination or Creation Adoption of these regulations will not create or eliminate jobs within California, nor create new busi - nesses or eliminate existing businesses within Cali - fornia.

The proposed regulations could likely impact the expansion of businesses currently doing business within the State of California. This program will en - hance conduit financings for charter school facilities. These facilities are often an expansion of the associ - ated charter school organizations to serve more stu - dents. It should be noted that not all charter school facility related financings are expansions. Some fi - nancings are replacement facilities, renovations, or site improvements.

Assessment of Effect to the Health and Welfare of California Residents, Worker Safety, and the State’s Environment The purpose of the program and proposed regu - lations is to set forth administrative criteria and re - quirements for administering this grant program. The Authority do not expect any anticipated benefits to worker safety or the State’s environment. However, while each funding is different, funding for facilities may allow schools to free up assets potentially allow - ing actions resulting in improved worker safety.

Addi- tionally, there may be a positive effect on the welfare of some California residents. As the intent of the pro - gram is to enhance financings related to charter school facilities, the Charter FinE Program and its proposed regulations have the potential to directly benefit the welfare of students and their related communities. Cost Impact on Housing The Regulations will not have any effect on housing costs.

SECTION 1653 CONSISTENCY DETERMINATION REQUEST FOR MARKET STREET GRAVEL PROJECT (TRACKING NUMBER: 1653–2022–104–001–R1) SHASTA COUNTY California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) received a Request to Approve on 12/29/2022, that Reclamation District Number 108 proposes to car - ry out a habitat restoration or enhancement project pursuant to Fish and Game Code

section 1653. The proposed project involves the placement of spawning gravel and the creation of riffles to improve salmonid spawning conditions. The proposed project will be carried out on the Sacramento River, located down - stream of the Market Street Bridge, Redding, Shasta County, California.

On 12/16/2022, the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board (Regional Water Board) re - ceived a Notice of Intent (NOI) to comply with the terms of, and obtain coverage under, the General 401 Water Quality Certification Order for Small Habitat Restoration Projects (General 401 Order) for the Mar- ket Street Gravel Project.

The Regional Water Board determined that the Project, as described in the NOI, was categorically exempt from California Environ - mental Quality Act (CEQA) review (section 15333 — Small Habitat Restoration Projects) and met the eli - gibility requirements for coverage under the General 401 Order. The Regional Water Board issued a Notice of Applicability (WDID Number 5A45CR00628) for coverage under the General 401 Order on 12/20/2022. The Reclamation District is requesting a determi - nation that the project and associated documents are complete pursuant to Fish and Game Code

section 1653 subdivision (d). If CDFW determines the project is complete, the District will not be required to obtain an incidental take permit under Fish and Game Code

section 2081 subdivision (

b) or a Lake or Streambed Alteration Agreement under Fish and Game Code sec- tion 1605 for the proposed project. In accordance with Fish and Game Code

section 1653 subdivision (e), if CDFW determines during the review, based on substantial evidence, that the request is not complete, the Reclamation District will have the opportunity to submit under Fish and Game Code sec- tion 1652.

DEPARTMENT OF FISH AND WILDLIFE CESA CONSISTENCY DETERMINATION REQUEST FOR KOPTA SLOUGH MULTI–BENEFIT PROJECT 2080–2022–020–01 TEHAMA COUNTY The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) received a notice on December 29, 2022, that California Department of Water Resources proposes to rely on a consultation between federal agencies to carry out a project that may adversely affect species protected by the California Endangered Species Act (CESA).

The proposed project involves removing ap - proximately one mile of rock from the Sacramento riverbank, restoring approximately 176 acres of agri - cultural land to native floodplain habitat, and transfer- ring the Kopta Slough Property to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service ownership. The Project objectives are to restore, enhance, and conserve the Sacramen - to River, restore hydrologic and geomorphic function to the Sacramento River, reduce flood operation and maintenance costs and responsibilities, improve fish and wildlife habitat, and facilitate the enhancement of recreational opportunities.

Proposed activities will include, but are not limited to, the removal of existing rock revetment along approximately 5,600 feet of the Sacramento riverbank, restoration of approximately 176 acres of agricultural land to native floodplain habi- tat, conversion of the agricultural land to approximate- ly 46 acres of native grassland, 45 acres of valley oak woodland, and 85 acres of valley oak riparian forest. Some of the excavated rock will be used for drainage improvements and crushed rock would be spoiled in designated areas and/or used as road base to improve existing roads on the property.

The proposed project will occur along the west bank of the Sacramento Riv- er near the city of Corning in Tehama County. The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) is - sued a federal biological opinion (BO) (NMFS Ref.

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2023, VOLUME NUMBER 2-Z 17 Number WCRO–2019–00143) in a memorandum to the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation on September 9, 2019, which considered the effects of the proposed proj - ect on state and federally threatened Central Valley spring–run Chinook salmon ( O. tshawytscha ), state and federally endangered Sacramento River winter– run Chinook salmon (O. tshawytscha). Pursuant to California Fish and Game Code

section 2080.1, California Department of Water Resources is requesting a determination that the Incidental Take Statement (ITS) and its associated BO are consistent with CESA for purposes of the proposed project. If CDFW determines the ITS and associated BO are consistent with CESA for the proposed project, Cali - fornia Department of Water Resources will not be re - quired to obtain an incidental take permit under Fish and Game Code

section 2081 subdivision (

b) for the proposed project. DEPARTMENT OF FISH AND WILDLIFE HABITAT RESTORATION AND ENHANCEMENT ACT CONSISTENCY DETERMINATION NUMBER 1653–2022–104–001–R1 Project: Market Street Gravel Project Location: Shasta County, CA Applicant: William Vanderwaal Notifier: Reclamation District Number 108 Background Project Location: The Project is located on the southern/western bank of the Sacramento River, im - mediately downstream of the Market Street bridge, in the City of Redding. Coordinates for the Project are 40.592° North, –122.391° West.

Project Description: The purpose of the project is to improve spawning conditions through the placement of spawning gravel and the creation of riffles in the Sacramento River at the project location. The com - ponents proposed as part of this project are described below. A. Cobble Removal — Adjacent to the bank, an area approximately 60 feet wide by 422 feet long will be excavated to a depth of approximately 2 feet. The area is predominately large cobble, which will be removed and utilized for construction of riffle cores.

The excavated area will be backfilled with spawning gravel to create additional areas for spawning. B. Temporary Berm — A temporary berm of spawn- ing gravel will be placed around the project area to slow water velocity and to reduce turbidity re - sulting from the work. The berm will be repur - posed as spawning gravel augmentation at the site at the end of riffle construction. C. Spawning Gravel — Approximately 2,000 cubic yards of existing riverbed will be excavated and utilized for riffle bars or the temporary berms.

Up to 5,500 cubic yards of spawning gravel will be imported from a commercial source to create the spawning habitat and temporary berms. All ma - terial will be utilized on site, with no excess ma - terial hauled offsite. D. Equipment — The work will be performed by ex- cavators, bull dozers, loaders and off–road trucks working in the water. Construction will be com - pleted during a defined in–water work window as coordinated with the involved fisheries agencies, which is expected to be between 3 January and 15 March 2023, followed by a similar project 2 to 3 years later.

The work is expected to take approxi- mately 4 weeks to complete. E. Construction Access and Site Access — The con- struction site is located on Anderson Cottonwood Irrigation District (A.C.I.D.) property. Staging will be done on the A.C.I.D. property.

DEPARTMENT OF FISH AND WILDLIFE CESA CONSISTENCY DETERMINATION REQUEST FOR BOLINAS LAGOON WYE WETLANDS RESILIENCY PROJECT 2080–2022–019–03 MARIN COUNTY The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) received a notice on December 27, 2022 that Marin County Parks proposes to rely on a consulta - tion between federal agencies to carry out a project that may adversely affect a species protected by the California Endangered Species Act (CESA).

The pro- posed project involves restoring hydrologic, geomor - phic, and ecologic processes to support wetland hab - itats for wildlife and salmonids. Proposed activities will include, but are not limited to, restoring Lewis Gulch Creek to its historic alignment, re–aligning the intersection of Olema Bolinas Road at SR–1 and in - stalling a bridge crossing for Lewis Gulch Creek. The proposed project will occur at Bolinas Wye, adjacent to intersection of Olema Bolinas Road, Fairfax Boli - nas Road and SR–1, Marin County.

The National Marine Fisheries Service (Service) is- sued a federal biological opinion (BO) (Service Ref. No WCR–2015–3755) in a memorandum to the NOAA Restoration Center and the U.S. Army Corps of Engi - neers on June 14, 2016, which considered the effects of the proposed project on state endangered and federally endangered central California coast (CCC) coho salm- on (Oncorhynchus kisutch). Pursuant to California Fish and Game Code

section 2080.1, Marin County Parks is requesting a determi - nation that the Incidental Take Statement (ITS) and its associated BO are consistent with CESA for purposes of the proposed project. If CDFW determines the ITS and associated BO are consistent with CESA for the proposed project, Marin County Parks will not be re - quired to obtain an incidental take permit under Fish and Game Code

SECTION 11340.5. SCOPE OF REVIEW A determination by the Office of Administrative Law (OAL) evaluates whether or not an action or enactment by a state agency complies with Califor - nia administrative law governing how state agencies adopt regulations. Nothing in this analysis evaluates the advisability or the wisdom of the underlying action or enactment. Our review is limited to the sole issue of whether the challenged rule meets the definition of “regulation” as defined in Government Code

section 11342.600 and is subject to the Administrative Proce- dure Act (APA). If a rule meets the definition of “reg- ulation,” but was not adopted pursuant to the APA and should have been, it is an “underground regulation” as defined in California Code of Regulations, title 1, sec- tion 250. 1 OAL has neither the legal authority nor the technical expertise to evaluate the underlying policy issues involved in the subject of this determination. 1 As defined by title 1,

section 250(a), an “Underground regulation” means any guideline, criterion, bulletin, manual, instruction, order, standard of general ap - plication, or other rule, including a rule governing a state agency procedure, that is a regulation as defined in

Section 11342.600 of the Government Code, but has not been adopt- ed as a regulation and filed with the Secretary of State pur - suant to the APA and is not subject to an express statutory exemption from adoption pursuant to the APA.

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2023, VOLUME NUMBER 2-Z 22 CHALLENGED RULE The challenged rule consists of a five–step process to be followed when a transgender, intersex, or non– binary inmate requests a housing assignment at a cor - rectional facility designated for men or women based on their preference (Process).

The challenged rule is contained in a memorandum issued on December 18, 2020, by the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR), Director of the Division of Adult Institutions, Connie Gipson, to Associate Di- rectors, Division of Adult Institutions, and Wardens regarding implementation of Senate Bill (SB) 132 (Memo). A copy of the Memo, with all eight attach - ments omitted, is attached to this determination as Exhibit A.

DETERMINATION OAL determines that the Process on page four of the Memo meets the definition of a “regulation” that should have been adopted pursuant to the APA and is, therefore, an underground regulation. FACTUAL BACKGROUND On June 13, 2022, OAL received a petition from DeeDee Wakefield specifically challenging the Pro - cess as an underground regulation (Petition). On August 11, 2022, OAL accepted the Petition. A

summary of the Petition was published in the Califor - nia Regulatory Notice Register on August 26, 2022, and solicited comments from the public until Septem- ber 26, 2022. OAL did not receive any comments from the public. On September 13, 2022, OAL received a timely re - sponse from CDCR. Petitioner’s reply, if any, was due to OAL no later than September 28, 2022. On Octo - ber 31, 2022, OAL received a reply from Petitioner. Because Petitioner’s reply was not timely received, OAL did not consider the reply when drafting this determination.

The Memo was issued to Associate Directors, Di - vision of Adult Institutions, and Wardens by Connie Gipson, Director of the Division of Adult Institutions. The subject line of the Memo is “Senate Bill 132 Im - plementation.” Under the heading “Inmate Housing Request based on Gender Identity” on page four, the Memo restates Penal Code

section 2606 and establish- es the Process as follows: SB 132 creates the new Penal Code

Section 2606, which states: An individual incarcerated by the CDCR who is transgender, non–binary, or intersex, regard - less of anatomy, shall: 1) Be housed at a correctional facility designat - ed for men or women based on the individual’s preference, including, if eligible, at a residential program for individuals under the jurisdiction of the department.

To accomplish this mandate, the following process will be utilized: 1) A transgender, intersex, or non–binary inmate submits a request to be housed based on their preference during Reception Centers process - ing, or at any other time via the [Gender Identity Questionnaire (GIQ)], CDCR Form GA 22, note to staff, etc. Regardless of how the request is made, all housing requests are forwarded to the [Prison Rape Elimination Act (PREA) Compliance Manager (PCM)] within 24 hours.

If submitted via a CDCR Form 602–1, the Grievance Office will “redirect” the request to the PCM. 2) The PCM will review the housing request with the inmate, then forward the request to the [Classification and Parole Representative (C&PR)] for assignment to a [Correctional Counselor (CC)] II (Supervisor) or designee. 3) The assigned staff member will interview the in - mate, notify Medical and Mental Health Care staff of the request, and prepare a

summary report for the [Institution Classification Committee (ICC)]. To prepare a comprehensive

summary report, the assigned staff member will complete a file review to include the inmate’s criminal history, CDCR history, disciplinary history, and victimization and abusiveness concerns. A worksheet was de - veloped to assist with obtaining gender identity information (Attachment 3). 4) Upon completion of the

summary report, the CC II will

schedule the case for appearance before the ICC. The ICC shall include the warden, PCM, CC II (Supervisor), C&PR, and a Medical and/or Mental Health representative.

a) If the ICC approves the inmate for place - ment in a different (gender) type of facili - ty, based on their preference, the case will be forwarded to the Classification Staff Representative (CSR) for endorsement to a Reception Center.

b) If disapproved, the inmate is provided with a copy of the Classification Chrono. The in- mate has a right to file a grievance, if they do not agree with the ICC’s decision.

c) If a grievance is filed via a CDCR Form 602–1, or appealed via CDCR Form 602–2, the Grievance or Appeal Office will “redi - rect” the case to the Classification Services Unit to

schedule an appearance before the Departmental Review Board (DRB).

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2023, VOLUME NUMBER 2-Z 23 5) I f an inmate raises concerns for their health or safety at any time, their housing and placement shall be reassessed. UNDERGROUND REGULATIONS Government Code

section 11340.5, subdivision (a), provides that: (

a) N o state agency shall issue, utilize, enforce, or at - tempt to enforce any guideline, criterion, bulle - tin, manual, instruction, order, standard of gen - eral application, or other rule, which is a regu- lation as defined in [Government Code]

Section 11342.600, unless the guideline, criterion, bulle - tin, manual, instruction, order, standard of gener- al application, or other rule has been adopted as a regulation and filed with the Secretary of State pursuant to [the APA]. When an agency issues, utilizes, enforces, or at - tempts to enforce a rule in violation of Government Code

section 11340.5 it creates an underground regu- lation as defined in title 1, California Code of Regula- tions,

section 250. OAL may issue a determination as to whether or not an agency has issued, utilized, enforced, or at - tempted to enforce a rule that meets the definition of “regulation” as defined in Government Code

section 11342.600 and should have been adopted pursuant to the APA (Gov. Code

sec. 11340(b)). An OAL determi- nation is not enforceable against the agency through any formal administrative means, but it is entitled to “due deference” in any subsequent litigation of the is- sue pursuant to Grier v. Kizer (1990) 219 Cal.App.3d 422 [268 Cal.Rptr. 244]. A NA LYSIS OAL ’s authority to issue a determination extends only to the limited question of whether the challenged rule is a “regulation” subject to the APA. This analy - sis will determine (1) whether the challenged rule is a “regulation” within the meaning of Government Code

section 11342.600, and (2) whether the challenged rule falls within any recognized exemption from APA requirements. A regulation is defined in Government Code

section 11342.600 as: ...every rule, regulation, order, or standard of general application or the amendment, supplement, or revision of any rule, regulation, order, or standard adopted by any state agency to implement, interpret, or make specific the law enforced or administered by it, or to govern its procedure. In Tidewater Marine Western, Inc. v. Victoria Brad- shaw ( 1 996) 1 4 Cal.4 th 557, 571 [59 Cal.Rptr.2d 186], the California Supreme Court found that: A regulation subject to the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (Gov. Code, § 11340 et seq.) has two principal identifying characteristics.

First, the agency must intend its rule to apply generally, rather than in a specific case. The rule need not, however, apply universally; a rule applies generally so long as it declares how a certain class of cases will be decided. Second, the rule must implement, interpret, or make specific the law enforced or administered by the agency, or govern the agency’s procedure (Gov. Code, § 11342, subd. (g)).2 As stated in Tidewater, the first element used to identify a “regulation” is whether the rule applies gen- erally. As Tidewater points out, a rule need not apply to all persons in the state of California.

It is sufficient if the rule applies to a clearly defined class of persons or situations. 3 The Memo was issued to all Associate Directors within the Division of Adult Institutions and the War- den of each institution under CDCR’s jurisdiction. By its own terms, the Memo applies to all transgender, intersex, or non–binary inmates, regardless of gender. Similarly, the Process is intended to be utilized in ev - ery instance of receipt of an inmate housing request based on gender identity. The Memo and the chal - lenged rule within are intended to apply generally; thus, the first element of Tidewater is met.

The second element used to identify a “regulation” as stated in Tidewater is that the rule must implement, interpret or make specific the law enforced or adminis- tered by the agency, or govern the agency’s procedure. That the Memo is intended to implement, interpret, and make specific the law enforced or administered by CDCR is indisputable. As cited above, page four of the Memo states that the Process is to be utilized to “accomplish th[e] mandate” established in Penal Code

section 2606. But the specific procedures, forms, re - ports, and other requirements identified in the Process are not included in Penal Code

section 2606. For exam- ple, the statute does not require “all housing requests [to be] forwarded to the PCM within 24 hours” (Pro - cess step #1), the PCM to review the housing request with the requesting inmate (Process step #2), prepa- ration of a

summary report for the ICC or the specific contents of the report (Process step #3), or inclusion of certain specified personnel as members of an ICC 2

Section 11342(

g) was re–numbered in 2000 to

section 11342.600 without substantive change. 3 See also Roth v. Department of Veterans Affairs , (1980) 110 Cal.App.3d 14, 19; 167 Cal.Rptr. 552, 557.

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2023, VOLUME NUMBER 2-Z 24 (Process step #4). Each of these requirements further implements Penal Code

section 2606. Further, page 1 of the Memo provides: “The California Code of Reg - ulations (CCR), Title 15, and the Department Opera - tions Manual (DOM) are being revised to comply with SB 132. In the interim, the memorandum will serve as direction until changes to the CCR and DOM are published.” [Emphasis added.] Since the clearly stated purpose of the Memo is to establish “placeholder” pol- icies that implement the statutory enactments of SB 132, the second element of Tidewater is met. Because both elements of Tidewater are satisfied, the challenged Process on page four of the Memo meets the definition of “regulation” in Government Code

section 11342.600. The final issue to examine is whether the challenged rule falls within an express statutory exemption from the APA. Exemptions from the APA can be general exemptions that apply to all state rulemaking agen - cies. Exemptions may also be specific to a particular rulemaking agency or a specific program. Pursuant to Government Code

section 11346, the procedural re - quirements established in the APA “shall not be su - perseded or modified by any subsequent legislation except to the extent that the legislation shall do so expressly.” [Emphasis added.] CDCR has not identified an express statutory ex - emption from the APA that would apply to the chal - lenged Process on page four of the Memo, nor did OAL find such an exemption. AGENCY RESPONSE CDCR’s response to the Petition does not specifi - cally address the issue of whether the Process is an underground regulation.

Instead, the response echoes page one of the Memo (“CDCR is currently in the pro- cess of completing regulations to further implement, interpret, and make specific Penal Codes (PC) 2605 and 2606”) and provides additional procedural histo - ry for Petitioner’s previously related grievances and appeals. CONCLUSION In accordance with the above analysis, OAL deter - mines that the Process meets the definition of a “regu- lation” that should have been adopted pursuant to the APA, and to that extent, the Memo is an underground regulation.
