23.Please describe any other I Nln <br />aspect of your project that is <br />relevant to the amount of <br />emissions that it will reduce or <br />avoid. <br />Criterion 3 - Efficient use of Funds <br />1. Please estimate the impact of your project per grant dollar requested. <br />This cost per unit of impact must reflect the total program budget divided by the total impact of the <br />project described in this application. lf the proposed project is new, please write N/A in the first <br />column of the table below, and just fill out the second column. <br />ActualAnnual Project <br />Costs <br />(lf your proposed project <br />expands or accelerates an <br />ongoins effort) <br />Projected Project Costs <br />Total Cost of Project s15o,ooo <br />Unit of lmpact: <br />Total # of tons of greenhouse gases reduced 425.75 short tons <br />Cost Per Ton of GHG's Reduced S3s2.31 <br />Unit of lmpact: <br />Total # of individuals served/benefitted 75 <br />Cost Per !ndividual Served/Benefitted s2ooo <br />Other Unit of !mpact: Please describe here N/A <br />Cost Per Unit of lmpact N/A <br />Other Unit of lmpact: Pleose describe here N/A <br />Cost Per Unit of Impact N/A <br />(Please feel free to add rows if necessary to show any additional units of impact.) <br />24.Please describe any avoided <br />financial costs or savings <br />related to the project and over <br />what period of time those <br />costs will be avoided/reduced: <br />Future costs for natural gas and electricity are extremely <br />difficult to forecast accurately as are the benefits to public <br />health and safety from reducing GHG emissions. Our <br />government, some businesses, and some US citizens believe <br />that the cost of continued emissions of GHG is too great for our <br />society. From the Environmental Defense Fund the current <br />central estimate of the social cost of carbon is over S50 per ton <br />in today's dollars. By that measure this project would avert <br />over $28,000 in future damages from climate change. Some <br />experts believe this estimate is far below the potential <br />damages. <br />Page 13 of 1 <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: 3B3ED7CA-61F5-4E47-87CD-95256B532A12
