19.17 	the total appropriation must be
19.18 	distributed according to work that has
19.19 	been done by the counties during the
19.20 	fiscal year.  The amount must be

19.34 	item must not exceed $200.
19.35 	Delegated counties are eligible for a
19.36 	minimum grant of $7,500.  To receive
19.37 	the full $7,500 amount a county must
19.38 	meet the requirements under clause (2)
19.39 	of the formula.  Nondelegated counties
19.40 	that apply for delegation shall receive
19.41 	a grant prorated according to the
19.42 	number of full quarters remaining in
19.43 	the program year from the date of
