Section 3.5 of the 2017 FAD issued by the NYSDOH also requires the City to contract with CW Corp. to provide adequate funding for an appropriate position at CW Corp. to assist applicants undertaking regulated activities to comply with the stormwater provisions of the Watershed Regulations (Stormwater Technical Assistant). Operating Funds under this contract may be used only to pay the operating costs of CW Corp. incurred on or after the effective date, including, without limitation repayment of any CFF loan, and costs related to the Arkville Facility (“CW Corp.
