THIS APPROVAL
PERTAINS TO THE STATE PLAN AND THE PROVISIONS IN 34 CFR 365. IT IS
FOR ONE YEAR ONLY AND IS TO BE USED FOR 1985 FUNDS ONLY SINCE THE
DEPARTMENT WILL UNDERTAKE A DEREGULATORY REVIEW OF THE REGULATIONS
IN 34 CFR 365 AND MAKE ANY NECESSARY CHANGES BEFORE THE AWARD OF
1986 STATE GRANT FUNDS. THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT MUST BE ADDED TO
THE MATERIAL PROVIDED TO THE STATES ON THE STATE PLAN: "THE
REQUIREMENTS OF THIS PLAN FOLLOW THE STANDARDS OF REGULATION NOW IN
EFFECT. THOSE REGULATIONS WERE PROMULGATED SEVERAL YEARS AGO,
BEFORE FUNDING WAS AVAILABLE AND BEFORE THE DEPARTMENT ESTABLISHED
ITS CURRENT POLIY OF NOT REGULATING GRANTEE BEHAVIOR WHERE THE LAW
IS SUFFICIENTLY UNAMBIGUOUS AND NO FEDERAL PURPOSE WOULD BE SERVED
BY ADDED RULES. THE DEPARTMENT PLANS A THOROUGH REVIEW AND
REPROMULGATIO OF THESE RULES BEFORE THE NEXT GRANT CYCLE."
