The U.S. Secretary of Education (Secretary) proposes to adjust the statutory caps on State administration under Title I, part A of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965, as amended (Title I, part A), and part B, section 611 of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) with respect to funds available for those programs under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA), Public Law 111-5. The proposed adjustments would allow State educational agencies (SEAs) to reserve State administrative funds from their fiscal year (FY) 2009 ARRA allocations under Title I, part A and section 611 of IDEA to help defray the costs of data collections that are specifically related to ARRA funding for these programs (including, for Title I, part A, data collection related to waivers). This notice only affects administrative costs for data collection under Title I, part A and IDEA section 611; for costs associated with other ARRA data collections, SEAs may use a portion of the State's Government Services grant under the State Fiscal Stabilization Funds or funds allowable for that purpose under individual programs.
