Document Number: E9-25839
Type: Notice

Agency: Department of Education
The U.S. Secretary of Education (Secretary) adjusts 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, section 611) with respect to data collection requirements pertaining to these two programs under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA), Public Law 111-5. The adjustments allow a State educational agency (SEA) to reserve additional State administrative funds from its FY 2009 allocations under Title I, Part A and IDEA, section 611 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). An SEA may use administrative funds from its regular Title I, Part A and IDEA, section 611 appropriations; the additional administrative funds allowed by the adjustments in this notice; or a combination of these funds to meet the costs of ARRA-related data collection requirements for the Title I, Part A and IDEA, section 611 programs, respectively. For costs associated with ARRA data collections unrelated to Title I, Part A or IDEA, section 611, an SEA may use the State's Government Services grant under the State Fiscal Stabilization Fund (SFSF or Stabilization) program or funds allowable for that purpose under other ARRA programs.
