the statutorily required Plan are at 45 CFR 98.10 through 98.18. The 
Plan, submitted on the ACF-118, is required biennially and remains in 
effect for two years. This Plan, provides ACF and the public with a

The ACF-118 is approved through February 29, 2004 making it available 
to States and Territories needing to submit Amendments through the end

Consistent with the statute and regulations, ACF requests extension of 
the ACF-118 with minor corrections and modifications. The Tribal Plan
