notice inviting applications (NIA) for

the Native Hawaiian Education (NHE)
program, Catalog of Federal Domestic

Education Appropriations Act, 2020
(Act), which provides funding for the
awards under this competition. For

fiscal year (FY) 2020, the Act overrides
the limitation in section 6205(b) of the
Elementary and Secondary Education
Act of 1965, as amended by the Every
Student Succeeds Act (ESEA), to
provide that the 5 percent limitation on
the use of funds for administrative
purposes applies only to direct
administrative costs. This document
amends the NIA to clearly indicate that
the administrative cost cap in ESEA
section 6205(b) applies only to direct
administrative costs for grants awarded
using FY 2020 appropriations.
DATES: Deadline for Transmittal of
Applications: February 11, 2020.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Following
publication of the NIA (84 FR 68154),
Congress passed and the President
signed the Act, which provides funding
for the awards under this competition.
The Act provides that the 5 percent
limitation in section 6205(b) of the
ESEA on the use of funds for
administrative purposes applies only to
direct administrative costs. Accordingly,
we are amending the NIA to notify
prospective applicants that no more
than five percent of funds awarded for
a FY 2020 grant under this program may
be used for direct administrative costs.
Pursuant to this language, for funds
awarded in this competition for the
NHE program, this five percent limit
only includes direct administrative
costs, and not indirect costs.
All other requirements and conditions
stated in the NIA remain the same.
Amendments
In FR Doc. No. 2019–26944, in the
Federal Register of December 13, 2019
(84 FR 68154), on page 68157, in the

text after the heading ‘‘Funding
Restrictions:’’ with the following:
No more than five percent of FY 2020
funds awarded for a grant under this
program may be used for direct
administrative costs (ESEA section
6205(b) and the Department of
Education Appropriations Act, 2020
(the Act)). This five percent limit does
not include indirect costs.
Note: Pursuant to ESEA section 6205(b), in
this competition under this program, the five
percent limit includes direct and indirect
administrative costs. However, in the Act,
