§ 8200. Definitions.
For purposes of this article, the following definitions shall apply:
(a) “Applicant” means the individual or entity utilizing the GO-Biz TEA Interactive Tool to request a TEA certification letter, including, but not limited to, an immigrant seeking an EB-5 visa, an economic development center, a regional center, or a law firm representing such an immigrant or commercial enterprise.
(e) “Contiguous census tract” means a census track that is either directly adjacent to the census tract where the project is located or, is adjacent to a census tract that is part of a contiguous area of census tracts that includes the project location. Intervening bodies of water separating census tracts do not necessarily prevent two census tracts from being adjacent.
(k) “Qualifying cities, Census Designated Places (“CDPs”), and Metropolitan Statistical Areas (“MSAs”)” means cities, CDPs, and the MSAs (as designated by the federal Office of Management and Budget), eligible for the TEA certification by meeting the unemployment rate threshold (at least 150 percent of the national average rate). To determine if the qualifying city, CDP, or MSA meets the unemployment rate threshold, the unemployment rate determined by the California Employment Development Department at www.edd.ca.gov shall be used.
(p) “Special TEA” means the census tract of a project does not meet the existing standard, pre-calculated certification categories as a TEA, but the project is located within an area of twelve or fewer contiguous census tracts with a total average unemployment rate of at least 150% the national average rate.
