The Agency shall determine whether the | 12 | | rehabilitation is consistent with the standards of the | 13 | | Secretary of the United States Department of the Interior for | 14 | | rehabilitation. Upon completion and review of the project, the | 15 | | Department shall issue a certificate in the amount of the | 16 | | eligible credits. At the time the certificate is issued, an | 17 | | issuance fee up to the maximum amount of 2% of the amount of | 18 | | the credits issued by the certificate may be collected from the | 19 | | applicant to administer the Act. If collected, this issuance | 20 | | fee shall be evenly divided between the Department and the | 21 | | Agency. The taxpayer must attach the certificate to the tax | 22 | | return on which the credits are to be claimed.
