Sec. 1309.4  Eligibility--Construction.

    Before submitting an application under Sec. 1309.10 for 
construction of a facility, the grantee must establish that:
    (a) The Head Start program serves an Indian Tribe; or is located in 
a rural or other low-income community; and
    (b) There is a lack of suitable facilities (including public school 
facilities) in the grantee's service area which will inhibit the 
operation of the program, as demonstrated by a statement that neither 
the grantee's current facility nor any facility available for lease in 
the service area is suitable for use by the Head Start program. This 
statement must explain the factors considered, how it was determined 
that there is a lack of suitable facilities and be supported whenever 
possible by a written statement from a licensed real estate professional 
in the grantee's service area.
