Official statutory text
It is the intent of the Legislature that any funds provided to stations under this article shall supplement, rather than supplant, funds provided from other sources. To that end, institutions that have heretofore provided funding to stations licensed to them shall certify, in applying for grants, that they have not previously and will not in the future use funds provided under this chapter to supplant institutional support of their stations.
