that end.


13601.  The state board, in cooperation with the regional boards,
shall survey the statewide need for waste collection, treatment and
disposal facilities which will be required during the five-year
period, January 1, 1968, to December 31, 1972, inclusive, to
adequately protect the waters of the state for beneficial use. The
state board shall also, biennially, commencing in 1970, survey the
need for facilities which will be required by public agencies for the
ensuing five-year period. The state board may request a local public
agency operating such facilities to transmit to its regional board a
report on the following:
   (a) A summary of the construction or improvement of its waste
collection, treatment and disposal facilities and amounts expended
therefor.
   (b) An estimate of its needs for the five-year period, January 1,
1968, to December 31, 1972, inclusive, and for any ensuing five-year
period.
   The state board shall review the information contained in the
reports made by the local public agencies. The state board shall
submit to the Legislature findings and conclusions as to the
anticipated local, state, and federal financing necessary to provide
the needed facilities for such periods.



13602.  The state board shall make no commitment or enter into any
agreement pursuant to an exercise of authority under this chapter

13603.  The Governor may request the funds required to finance the
state's share of project costs for each fiscal year through inclusion
of the anticipated state's share in the annual Budget Bill.



13604.  The state board shall review and approve each waste
collection, treatment, and disposal project for which an application
for a grant under the Federal Water Pollution Control Act has been
made. The state board shall, in reviewing each project, determine
whether such project is in conformity with state policy for water
quality control and in conformity with water quality control plans
adopted by regional boards, and shall certify that such project is
entitled to priority over other eligible projects on the basis of
financial as well as water pollution control needs.



13605.  For the purpose of reviewing applications for grants made
pursuant to authority granted in Section 13600, the state board shall
give added consideration to applicants having facilities providing
optimum water recycling and use of recycled water.



13606.  If an application states that the applicant is not able to
finance the local agency share of the project, the state board shall
consider whether the applicant should be required to levy a sewerage
service charge. If the state board determines a sewerage service
charge is necessary to pay such costs, the state board shall not
approve the grant application unless, as a condition to such
approval, the applicant agrees to levy a reasonable and equitable
sewerage service charge in connection with the proposed project.
   Any such applicant, not otherwise authorized, is authorized by
this section to levy a sewerage service charge pursuant to such an
agreement, and shall levy such charge in the manner provided in the
agreement.



13607.  All money appropriated by the Legislature for the state's
share of the project costs shall be appropriated without regard to
fiscal years, or shall augment an appropriation without regard to
fiscal years.


13608.  After the effective date of the amendment of this section by
the 1972 Regular Session of the Legislature, no application for a
grant under this division or under the Federal Water Pollution
Control Act, or amendment thereof, or for a loan pursuant to Chapter

by the state board unless such application contains assurances that
supervisors and operators of the plant meet or will meet
certification requirements, adopted pursuant to Chapter 9 (commencing
with Section 13625) of this division, for the proposed plant, as
well as the plant in current operation.


13609.  The money in the State Clean Water Grants Administration
Revolving Fund is transferred to the State Clean Water Fund to pay,
upon appropriation, for administrative costs relating to adjustments
of grant processing fees paid pursuant to this chapter.
