ACTION: Notice of public comment. AGENCY: The Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of Community Service (OCS), Division of Energy Assistance announces a preliminary determination that funds from the Federal fiscal year (FFY) 2022 Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) are available for reallotment to States, Territories, Tribes, and Tribal organizations that received FFY 2023 direct LIHEAP grants.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: After receiving Federal Financial Reports (FFRs) and Carryover and Reallotment Reports (CRRs) from FFY 2022 LIHEAP recipients, ACF has determined that $21,985,238 in FFY 2022 LIHEAP funds were available for reallotment for FFY 2023. This determination was based on the reports of 73 recipients, the total obligations of 3 recipients, and minor corrections to certain amounts available for carryover. LIHEAP recipients submitted the FFY 2022 CRRs to OCS, as required by regulations applicable to LIHEAP at 45 CFR 96.81(b). The LIHEAP statute allows grant recipients who have funds unobligated at the end of the FFY for which they are awarded to request that they be allowed to carry over up to 10 percent of their full-year allotments to the next FFY (42 U.S.C. 8626(b)(2)). Funds in excess of this amount must be returned to the U.S. Department of Health and Human DATES: PO 00000 Frm 00060 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Services and are subject to reallotment under 42 U.S.C. 8626(b)(1). FFY 2022 funds appropriated under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2022 (Pub. L. 117–2) were not subject to 42 U.S.C. 8626(b)(2)(B), which caps carryover at 10 percent. Therefore, these funds were not included in the reallotment calculation. In accordance with 42 U.S.C. 8626(b)(3), ACF notified each of the 76 recipients that reported or, in the absence of reporting, had potentially $21,985,238 of unobligated funds above their carryover caps. In these notices, ACF told each about the amount it returned for de-obligation and the amount that will be redistributed to FFY 2023 grant recipients as part of the reallotment. It also gave each recipient 30 calendar days to provide comments directly to ACF. If funds are reallotted, then they will be allocated in accordance with 42 U.S.C. 8623 and must be treated by LIHEAP grant recipients that receive them as an amount appropriated for FFY 2023. As FFY 2023 funds, they will be subject to all requirements of the LIHEAP statute, including 42 U.S.C. 8626(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, 2023. All LIHEAP grant recipients that receive a portion of these funds will be notified of the final reallotment amount redistributed to them for obligation in FFY 2023. This decision will also be published in the Federal Register and in a Dear Colleague Letter that is posted to E:\FR\FM\26SEN1.SGM 26SEN1 66006 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 185 / Tuesday, September 26, 2023 / Notices ACF’s website under LIHEAP Dear Colleague Letters.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: After receiving Federal Financial Reports 
(FFRs) and Carryover and Reallotment Reports (CRRs) from FFY 2022 
LIHEAP recipients, ACF has determined that $21,985,238 in FFY 2022 
LIHEAP funds were available for reallotment for FFY 2023. This 
determination was based on the reports of 73 recipients, the total 
obligations of 3 recipients, and minor corrections to certain amounts 
available for carryover. LIHEAP recipients submitted the FFY 2022 CRRs 
to OCS, as required by regulations applicable to LIHEAP at 45 CFR 
96.81(b).
    The LIHEAP statute allows grant recipients who have funds 
unobligated at the end of the FFY for which they are awarded to request 
that they be allowed to carry over up to 10 percent of their full-year 
allotments to the next FFY (42 U.S.C. 8626(b)(2)). Funds in excess of 
this amount must be returned to the U.S. Department of Health and Human 
Services and are subject to reallotment under 42 U.S.C. 8626(b)(1).
    FFY 2022 funds appropriated under the American Rescue Plan Act of 
2022 (Pub. L. 117-2) were not subject to 42 U.S.C. 8626(b)(2)(B), which 
caps carryover at 10 percent. Therefore, these funds were not included 
in the reallotment calculation.
    In accordance with 42 U.S.C. 8626(b)(3), ACF notified each of the 
76 recipients that reported or, in the absence of reporting, had 
potentially $21,985,238 of unobligated funds above their carryover 
caps. In these notices, ACF told each about the amount it returned for 
de-obligation and the amount that will be redistributed to FFY 2023 
grant recipients as part of the reallotment. It also gave each 
recipient 30 calendar days to provide comments directly to ACF.
    If funds are reallotted, then they will be allocated in accordance 
with 42 U.S.C. 8623 and must be treated by LIHEAP grant recipients that 
receive them as an amount appropriated for FFY 2023. As FFY 2023 funds, 
they will be subject to all requirements of the LIHEAP statute, 
including 42 U.S.C. 8626(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, 2023.
    All LIHEAP grant recipients that receive a portion of these funds 
will be notified of the final reallotment amount redistributed to them 
for obligation in FFY 2023. This decision will also be published in the 
Federal Register and in a Dear Colleague Letter that is posted to

    The FFY 2022 LIHEAP funds that ACF preliminarily expects to become

\1\ Preliminary funds for reallotment consist of the funds in excess of
  LIHEAP's 10 percent carryover cap that (1) 73 recipients indicated on
  the FFRs or reported on the CRRs as unobligated; or (2) amounted to
  100 percent of regular funds or IIJA funds for the 3 recipients that
  failed to submit the associated FFRs and their CRRs.

    If funds are reallotted, then grant recipients may use them for any 
purpose authorized under LIHEAP and must add these funds to their total 
LIHEAP funds payable for FFY 2023 for purposes of calculating statutory 
caps on administrative costs, carryover, Assurance 16 activities, and 
weatherization assistance.
    Additionally, all recipients of these funds must (1) ensure that 
they are included in the amounts on Lines 1.1 of their FFY 2023 CRRs; 
(2) reconcile these funds, to the extent that they received them, on a 
separate FFR; and (3) record, on their FFY 2023 Household Reports, 
households that receive benefits at least partly from these funds. 
State recipients must also ensure that these funds are included in the 
Grantee Survey sections of their FFY 2023 LIHEAP Performance Data 
Forms.
    Statutory Authority: 42 U.S.C. 8626(b).
