The Governor's Economic Revitalization Team certified the La Pine Industrial Site in 2004 and re-certified it in 2007 and 2009. According to program regulations, the site must be re-certified every two years. There have not been any substantive changes that would significantly impact the original certification or any previous re-certifications. All applications for recertification must include an application page; a letter signed by the owner; and a letter from the local jurisdiction. Those three documents are included in the packet with the document number 2012-042. FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: None.
