The project shall be determined by the department to have statewide or regional significance and shall be designed to provide results that are transferable to other locations within the state. This includes projects that demonstrate traditional or innovative management measures or urban best management practices need- ed in order to increase acceptance, use and understanding of cost− effectiveness, including pollutant control capability. 3. The project shall have an approved strategy for developing and disseminating information and education materials explain- ing the project and its management implications. (b) The department may consult with the university of Wiscon- sin−extension or its agent in considering demonstration project proposals. (4) COST−SHARE RATES AND COST−SHARE CONDITIONS. Cost− share rates and cost−share conditions identified in ch. NR 154 or the runoff management grant agreement shall be used for urban best management practices funded under this chapter.

NR 154. Where 2 or more practices are of equal effectiveness in re- ducing pollutants, the amount of cost sharing shall be based on the least cost practice.

DEMONSTRATION PROJECTS. FuelCellCo will create demonstration projects which will allow the public and those involved in the Offering to witness the fuel cells built with Anuvu developed technology in actual use. The current management team of Anuvu will promote these demonstration projects to the public with the approval and assistance of 618039 BC Limited and the media. Approximately one demonstration project per month within budget restraints will be completed and presented to the media until the time of the Offering. Due to the limited time and funds available, the fuel cells and other hardware used for one demonstration project may be used in another demonstration project. Each of the demonstration projects will be on the order of, or similar in scope to the following: golf cars, full automobiles, demonstration houses or representations thereof, forklifts, tractors, motor scooters and boats. Current Anuvu management will choose the demonstration project to release for public view each month based on the current progress on projects under development.

Work with the City, the TAC sub-committee, and community members to define the objectives and establish concrete goals and parameters for the event(s). Alta can provide the following tools to make the meetings interactive, engaging, and productive: Create a site design plan set for a demonstration project sites on Colorado Blvd and Greenwood West. The site plans will be suitable to construct the demonstration by an outside contractor, for all aspects of the event: layout and support services. Development of the materials kit will be as specific as possible while also allowing for future collaboration with the local city’s public works/engineering departments to make use ofmanymaterials already on hand. Thematerials kit will be created with event duration in mind.
