(a) The Governor is designated, as administrative agent of the state, to apply for any funds or other aid for new construction, reconstruction and equipment for state institutions, for The University of Connecticut and for any other purpose which the Congress of the United States has authorized or may authorize the federal government to grant to the several states. The Governor, or any other officer of the state designated in any Act passed by the Congress of the United States, is authorized, in the name of the state, to make all applications and sign all documents necessary to obtain such aid from the United States or any agency thereof. The Treasurer is directed to receive all funds granted by the United States, or by any agency thereof, and to hold the same separate from all other funds of the state. Such funds shall be disbursed by said Treasurer, upon voucher of the Comptroller, under the direction of, and subject to regulations of, the Governor.

Such agency may comply with all administrative requirements, not inconsistent with the laws of the state, imposed as a condition for receipt of said federal funds.
(c) A copy of any application made by a state agency under the provisions of this section or under the authority of any other section of the general statutes, or a detailed summary thereof, except applications for research grants by educational institutions, shall be submitted, through the Office of Fiscal Analysis, to the joint standing committee of the General Assembly having cognizance of matters relating to appropriations and the budgets of state agencies, together with any plans or amendments, prior to submission of such application to the federal government. Notice of grant awards, except awards for research grants to educational institutions, which the state receives shall be sent to the committee, through the Office of Fiscal Analysis upon notification to the state of such award by the federal government.
(d) For the purposes of encouraging and facilitating the development and implementation of area-wide waste treatment management plans pursuant to the federal Water Pollution Control Act, the Governor may designate (1) the boundaries of one or more waste treatment management planning areas within the state and (2) a single representative organization, including but not limited to appointed and elected officials from state, regional or local governments, or their designees, capable of developing effective area-wide waste treatment management plans for such areas. Upon the designation of that organization, notice thereof shall be given to the Legislative Committee on State Planning and Development established pursuant to section 4-60d, and the organization shall every six months thereafter submit a report on its activities to the Governor and to that committee.
