Sec. 205.24  How are accurate estimates maintained?

    (a) If a State has knowledge that an estimate does not reasonably 
correspond to the State's cash needs for a Federal assistance program or 
program component, or if a Federal assistance program undergoes 
operational changes that may affect cash needs, the State must 
immediately notify us in writing. We and the State will amend the 
funding technique provisions in the Treasury-State agreement or take 
other mutually agreed upon corrective action.
    (b) When estimates are properly updated and applied, a State or 
Federal interest liability may or may not accrue, depending on the terms 
of the Treasury-State agreement.
    (c) We may require a State to justify in writing that it is not 
feasible to use a more efficient basis for determining the amount of 
funds to be transferred under the Federal assistance program or program 
component to which an estimate is applied. We may prescribe requirements 
for certifying the reasonableness of an estimate.
