Such request must be made through a notice of intent to issue containing the information required in this section timely filed with the division in accordance with s. 159.814 by or on behalf of the issuer requesting the confirmation. Any notice of intent to issue that does not conform to this section is not eligible to receive a confirmation and must be rejected.

(e) The county or counties in which the project will be located. (f) The pool from which the allocation is requested.
