Sec.  248.5  Selection of new State agencies.

    In selecting new State agencies, the Department will use objective 
criteria to rank and approve State plans submitted in accordance with 
Sec.  248.4. In making this ranking, the Department will consider the 
amount of funds necessary to successfully operate the FMNP in the State 
compared with other States and with the total amount of funds available 
to the FMNP. Approval of a State Plan does not equate to an obligation 
on the part of the Department to fund the FMNP within that State agency.
