                           Subpart A--General
 
Sec. 222.14  What requirements must a local educational agency meet for 
an eligible overpayment to be forgiven in whole or part?

    The Secretary forgives an eligible overpayment, in whole or part as 
described in Sec. 222.18, if--
    (a) An LEA submits to the Department's Impact Aid Program office a 
written request for forgiveness by the later of--
    (1) Thirty days from the LEA's initial receipt of a written notice 
of the overpayment; or
    (2) September 2, 1997;
    (b) The LEA submits to the Department's Impact Aid Program office 
the information and documentation described in Sec. 222.16 by the 
deadlines described in paragraph (a) of this section, or other time 
limit established in writing by the Secretary due to lack of 
availability of the information and documentation; and
    (c) The Secretary determines under Sec. 222.17 that--
    (1) In the case either of an LEA's or the Department's error, 
repayment of the LEA's total eligible overpayments will result in an 
undue financial hardship on the LEA and seriously harm the LEA's 
educational program; or
    (2) In the case of the Department's error, determined on a case-by-
case basis, repayment would be manifestly unjust (``manifestly unjust 
repayment exception'').
