Applications will be accepted through June 23. Eligible applicants include corporations, limited liability companies, general partnerships, and others. Earlier this year, Gov. Ron DeSantis announced a first round of awards in February totaling more than $144 million for 58 projects in 41 counties, and a second round of awards totaling more than $22 million for eight projects across eight counties.
