DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

Administration for Children and Families

 

Revised Federal Allotments to State Developmental Disabilities 
Councils and Protection and Advocacy Formula Grant Programs for Fiscal 
Year 1995

AGENCY: Administration on Developmental Disabilities, Administration 
for Children and Families, Department of Health and Human Services.

ACTION: Notification of the Revised Fiscal Year 1995 Federal Allotments 
to State Developmental Disabilities Councils and Protection and 
Advocacy Formula Grant Programs.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This notice sets forth the revised Fiscal Year 1995 individual 
allotments to States administering the State Developmental Disabilities 
Councils and Protection and Advocacy programs, pursuant to Section 125 
and Section 142 of the Developmental Disabilities Assistance and Bill 
of Rights Act (Act). This revision is required because Public Law 103-
230, signed April 6, 1994, revised the formula used to calculate these 
allotments. The amounts published herein are based upon the Fiscal Year 
1995 Budget Request, and are contingent upon Congressional 
appropriations for Fiscal Year 1995. If Congress enacts and the 
President approves an amount different from the Fiscal Year 1995 Budget 
Request, the allotments will be adjusted accordingly. The revised 
allotments published herein supersede those published in the Federal 
Register on March 29, 1994.

EFFECTIVE DATE: October 1, 1994.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Bettye J. Mobley, Chief, Family 
Support Branch, Office of Financial Management, Administration for 
Children and Families, Department of Health and Human Services, 370 
L'Enfant Promenade SW., Washington, DC 20447, Telephone (202) 401-6955.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 125(a)(2) of the Act requires that 
adjustments in the amounts of State allotments may be made not more 
often than annually and that States are to be notified not less than 
six (6) months before the beginning of any fiscal year of any 
adjustments to take effect in that fiscal year.
    The Administration on Developmental Disabilities has updated the 
data elements for issuance of Fiscal Year 1995 allotments for the 
Developmental Disabilities formula grant programs. The data elements 
used in the update are:
    A. The number of beneficiaries in each State and Territory under 
the Childhood Disabilities Beneficiary Program, December 1992, are from 
Table 5.J10 of the ``Social Security Bulletin: Annual Statistical 
Supplement 1993'' issued by the Social Security Administration, U.S. 
Department of Health and Human Services. The numbers for the Northern 
Mariana Islands and the Trust Territories of the Pacific Islands, were 
obtained from the Social Security Administration;
    B. State data on Average Per Capita Income, 1987-92, are from Table 
1, page 74 of the ``Survey of Current Business,'' September 1993, 
issued by the Bureau of Economic Analysis, U.S. Department of Commerce; 
comparable data for the Territories also were obtained from that 
Bureau; and
    C. State data on Total Population and Working Population (ages 18-
64) as of July 1, 1992, are from ``Current Population Reports: 
Population Estimates and Projections, Series P-25, Number 1010, issued 
by the Bureau of the Census, U.S. Department of Commerce. Estimates for 
the Territories are no longer available, therefore, the Territories 
population data are from the 1990 Census Population Counts. The 
Territories' working populations were issued in the Bureau of Census 
report, ``General Characteristics Report: 1980,'' which is the most 
recent data available from the Bureau.
