Treasure State Endowment Program (TSEP) Program
The Treasure State Endowment Program (TSEP) awards matching grants to local governments for the construction of local infrastructure projects. The 2009 Legislature appropriated the following funding for TSEP projects: $17,800,000 in interest earnings from the Treasure State Endowment Fund (TSEF) during the 2011 biennium, $6,500,000 in loan authorization, and $22,839,427 in general fund that was freed up for other uses by Montana's receipt of dollars through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. A loan will be obtained, if needed, to ensure that there is adequate funding for projects 34 through 66 that meet start-up conditions by June 30, 2011.
The general fund dollars will be used to fund 19 projects authorized by the 2007 Legislature, since the interest earnings on the TSEF during the 2009 biennium were insufficient to fund all of the 56 projects authorized for grants. These 19 projects are the first group of projects listed and are shown in a green font.
The general fund dollars will also be used to fund 23 projects authorized by the 2009 Legislature, that were the first to meet start-up requirements. These 23 projects are the next group of projects listed.
The remaining 43 projects awarded grants by the 2009 Legislature will be funded with the TSEF interest earnings and the loan (if needed). These 43 projects are the last group of projects listed.
