Sec. 13104. Grants to States for State technical assistance 
        programs
        

(a) General authority

    The Administrator shall make matching grants to States for programs 
to promote the use of source reduction techniques by businesses.

(b) Criteria

    When evaluating the requests for grants under this section, the 
Administrator shall consider, among other things, whether the proposed 
State program would accomplish the following:
        (1) Make specific technical assistance available to businesses 
    seeking information about source reduction opportunities, including 
    funding for experts to provide onsite technical advice to business 
    \1\ seeking assistance and to assist in the development of source 
    reduction plans.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    \1\ So in original. Probably should be ``businesses''.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
        (2) Target assistance to businesses for whom lack of information 
    is an impediment to source reduction.
        (3) Provide training in source reduction techniques. Such 
    training may be provided through local engineering schools or any 
    other appropriate means.

(c) Matching funds

    Federal funds used in any State program under this section shall 
provide no more than 50 per centum of the funds made available to a 
State in each year of that State's participation in the program.

(d) Effectiveness

    The Administrator shall establish appropriate means for measuring 
the effectiveness of the State grants made under this section in 
promoting the use of source reduction techniques by businesses.

(e) Information

    States receiving grants under this section shall make information 
generated under the grants available to the Administrator.
