California Code, Public Utilities Code - PUC § 99248

No operator is eligible to receive an allocation under this chapter for any fiscal year until the transmittal of reports of its performance audit to the entity which determines the allocation to the operator and the transportation planning agency for the three-year period ending one year prior to the beginning of the fiscal year of the proposed allocation.  The transportation planning agency, county transportation commission, or transit development board, as the case may be, shall make the reports available to interested parties.

In conformance with Section 99246, and prior to September 1 of each fiscal year, the transportation planning agency, county transportation commission, or metropolitan transit development board, as the case may be, shall provide to the director and Controller a schedule of performance audits to be submitted during that fiscal year and a list of all operators or claimants who operated or commenced operations during the prior fiscal year.
