    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.
