Of the annual apportionment of funds received by the director pursuant to this chapter, 60 percent shall be allocated for local governmental agency projects and 40 percent for state agency projects. The state agency share shall be disbursed to the following state agencies in the following percentages: 60 percent to the Department of Parks and Recreation; 35 percent to the Wildlife Conservation Board or the Department of Fish and Game; and 5 percent to the Department of Water Resources. The State Coastal Conservancy established pursuant to Section 31100 is eligible to compete for grants of funds for projects of an outdoor recreational nature from the 6-percent contingency fund established by this section.
If either the state or local governmental agencies are unable to utilize their allocation of funds, the director shall allocate the uncommitted funds to those state or local governmental agencies that are in position to take advantage of the funds during the year in which they are allocated. The 60-percent allocation for local governmental agency projects and the 40-percent allocation to state agency projects shall not be computed until the costs of maintaining and keeping up to date the plan required pursuant to Section 5099.2 and an additional 6 percent for deposit to a contingency fund have been deducted.
