                Subpart B--State Agency Responsibilities
 
Sec. 1321.49  State agency maintenance of effort.

    In order to avoid a penalty, each fiscal year the State agency, to 
meet the required non-federal share applicable to its allotments under 
this part, shall spend under the State plan for both services and 
administration at least the average amount of State funds it spent under 
the plan for the three previous fiscal years. If the State agency spends 
less than this amount, the Commissioner reduces the State's allotments 
for supportive and nutrition services under this part by a percentage 
equal to the percentage by which the State reduced its expenditures.
