ARRA Certifications

Minnesota made every effort to be ready and poised to receive and spend this stimulus money quickly and to direct these funds to quality projects in a clear and transparent way. Three certifications (formal letters) are filed before ARRA funds could be made available:

 

• Certification by Commissioner Sorel:
  This certification states that the infrastructure investments have received the full review and vetting required by law (form 1511, DOC).
