shall be consistent with those normally allowed in like circumstances 
and, with applicable State and local law, rules or regulations as

    (c) Costs associated with repairs, maintenance, and capital 
improvements of existing facilities used primarily for programs under 
the Act are allowable. Additionally, the costs of home repair, 
weatherization and rehabilitation are allowable when the work is

    (d) Section 401 funds may be used to pay the cost of incorporating a 
PIC, other planning body or consortium administrative entity for the 
purpose of carrying out programs under the Act. These costs are 
chargeable to administration.
    (e) Costs which are billed as a single unit charge do not have to be 
allocated or prorated among the several cost categories but may be 
charged entirely to training when the agreement:
    (1) Is for classroom training;
    (2) Is fixed unit price; and
    (3) Stipulates that full payment for the full unit price will be 
made only upon completion of training by a participant and placement of 
the participant into unsubsidized employment in the occupation trained 
for and at not less than the wage specified in the agreement.
