It details the program's origins following the May 2025 Senate Bill 13, its mission to conserve and improve Georgia's natural resources, and the distribution of $35 million in infrastructure funding. The document defines eligible borrowers, including local governments and state agencies, and covers allowable project costs such as design and construction. Furthermore, it provides critical guidance on the financing process, loan terms, and the mandatory pre-application process, which requires submission through a web-based form by the July 31 deadline. The content serves as a foundational resource for prospective applicants seeking to understand the requirements, timeline, and administrative steps necessary to secure financing for natural gas infrastructure projects throughout the state of
