                   Subpart B_State Agency Eligibility

 

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.
