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

ACTION: Notification of Fiscal Year 2006 Federal Allotments to State 
Developmental Disabilities Councils and Protection and Advocacy Formula 
Grant programs.

SUMMARY: This notice sets forth Fiscal Year (FY) 2006 individual 
allotments and percentages of the total appropriation to States 
administering the State Developmental Disabilities Councils and 
Protection and Advocacy programs, pursuant to Section 122 and Section 
142 of the Developmental Disabilities Assistance and Bill of Rights Act 
(Act). The allotment amounts are based on the FY 2006 President's 
Budget request and are contingent on congressional appropriations for 
FY 2006. If the Congress enacts a different appropriation amount in FY 
2006, these allotments will be adjusted accordingly. The State 
allotments are available on the ADD homepage on the Internet: http://www.acf.hhs.gov/programs/add/.

EFFECTIVE DATE: October 1, 2005.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Catherine Wade, Grants Financial 
Management Specialist, Office of Grants Management, Office of 
Administration, Administration for Children and Families, telephone 
(202) 401-5798.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 122(a)(2) of the Act requires that 
adjustments in the amounts of State allotments shall be made not more 
often than annually and that States must be notified no less than six 
(6) months before the beginning of the fiscal year in which such 
adjustment is to take effect. The Catalog of Federal Domestic 
Assistance (CFDA) number is 93.630. In relation to the State 
Developmental Disabilities Council allotments, the descriptions of 
service needs were reviewed in the State plans and are consistent with 
the results obtained from the data elements and projected formula 
amounts for each State (Section 122(a)(5)).
    The Administration on Developmental Disabilities has updated the 
following data elements for issuance of Fiscal Year 2006 allotments for 
both of the Developmental Disabilities formula grant programs.
    A. The number of beneficiaries in each State and Territory under 
the Childhood Disabilities Beneficiary Program are from Table 5.J10 of 
the ``Annual Statistical Supplement, 2003, to the Social Security 
Bulletin'' issued by the Social Security Administration;
    B. State data on Average Per Capita Income are from Table B--Per 
Capita Personal Income, 2001-2003 of the ``Survey of Current 
Business,'' September, 2004, issued by the Bureau of Economic Analysis, 
U.S. Department of Commerce. The most recent comparable data for the 
Territories were obtained from the Department of Commerce September 
2004; and
    C. State data on Total Population is based on ``State Population 
Estimates: July 1, 2004'' issued December 2004 by the U.S. Census 
Bureau. The State working population (ages 18-64) is based on the 
``Estimate of Resident Population of the U.S. by Selected Age Groups 
and Sex, July 1, 2003'' issued September 2004 by the U.S. Census 
Bureau. Total population estimates for the Territories are based on 
``Global Population Profile: 2002'' data issued March 2004 by the U.S. 
Census Bureau. The Territories working population is based on 
``Population and Housing Profile: 2000'' issued by the U.S. Census 
Bureau from Census 2000 data.
