grant year for expenditures cumulative
through FY 2014. Thus, the reporting
burden associated with the ACF–196 is
greatly reduced.
ACF revised the proposed ACF–196R
form and instructions published in the
Federal Register on September 12, 2013,
based on comments received. We added
to the list of general instructions, and
revised some expenditure categories and
related definitions, resulting in greater
clarity or eased reporting. We also
expanded our discussion of adjustments
and revisions to prior data to provide
examples and address concerns over
how TANF financial reporting relates to
the accounting method states use to
track their expenditures. Finally, we
increased the estimated burden hours
necessary to complete quarterly reports
based on feedback from states.

Program (LIHEAP)
Office of Community Services,
ACF, HHS.
ACTION: Notice of determination
concerning funds available for
reallotment.
AGENCY:
Notice is hereby given of a
preliminary determination that funds
from the fiscal year (FY) 2013 Low
Income Home Energy Assistance
Program (LIHEAP) are available for
reallotment to States, Territories, Tribes,
and Tribal Organizations that receive FY
2014 direct LIHEAP grants. No
subgrantees or other entities may apply
for these funds. Section 2607(b)(1) of the
Low Income Home Energy Assistance
Act (the Act), Title XXVI of the
Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of
1981 (42 U.S.C. 8621 et seq.), as
amended, requires that if the Secretary
of the U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services (HHS) determines that,
as of September 1 of any fiscal year, an
amount in excess of certain levels
allotted to a grantee for any fiscal year
will not be used by the grantee during
the fiscal year, the Secretary must notify
the grantee and publish a notice in the
Federal Register that such funds may be
realloted to LIHEAP grantees during the
following fiscal year. If reallotted, the
LIHEAP block grant allocation formula
will be used to distribute the funds. (No
funds may be allotted to entities that are
not direct LIHEAP grantees during FY
2014.)
It has been determined that
$2,192,230 may be available for
reallotment during FY 2014. This
determination is based on revised
Carryover and Reallotment Reports from
the State of Nebraska, Salt River PimaMaricopa Indian Community, and the
Delaware Tribe of Indians, which were
submitted to the Office of Community
Services as required by 45 CFR 96.82.
The statute allows grantees who have
funds unobligated at the end of the

federal fiscal year for which they are
awarded to request that they be allowed
to carry over up to 10 percent of their
allotments to the next federal fiscal year.
Funds in excess of this amount must be
returned to HHS and are subject to
reallotment under section 2607(b)(1) of
the Act. The amount described in this
notice was reported as unobligated FY
2013 funds in excess of the amount that
the State of Nebraska, Salt River PimaMaricopa Indian Community, and the
Delaware Tribe of Indians could carry
over to FY 2014.
Each of the grantees mentioned above
were notified and confirmed that the FY
2013 funds indicated in the chart below
may be reallotted. In accordance with
section 2607(b)(3), the Chief Executive
Officers of the grantees referenced in the
chart below have 30 days from the date
of this publication to submit comments
to: Jeannie L. Chaffin, Director, Office of
Community Services, 370 L’Enfant
Promenade, SW., Washington, DC
20447.
After considering any comments
submitted, the Chief Executive Officers
will be notified of the final reallotment
amount, and this decision also will be
published in the Federal Register. If
funds are reallotted, they will be
allocated in accordance with section
2604 of the Act and must be treated by
LIHEAP grantees receiving them as an
amount appropriated for FY 2014. As
FY 2014 funds, they will be subject to
all requirements of the Act, including
section 2607(b)(2), which requires that a
grantee obligate at least 90 percent of its
total block grant allocation for a fiscal
year by the end of the fiscal year for
which the funds are appropriated, that
is, by September 30, 2014.
