Communities and organizations seek funding through their state senators and representatives for identified capital projects. Appropriations are included in the Capital Bill by the legislature at their discretion, with final approval by the governor. Under the governor's discretion, project funding may be reduced or vetoed entirely. The Department of Commerce, Community, and Economic Development, Division of Community and Regional Affairs' Grant Section manages the program under the provisions of the Alaska Statutes 37.05.315-37.05.325.
