the powers given the State Com

"As you may be aware. other

ton aid program does become a
reality" the report warns, "the
special program for federally
impacted areas may be curtailed
If not eliminated. Northern
Virginia should reckon with this
possibility. since for Northern
Virginia the amount of Federal
aid under a Nationwide educa-
tional program is likely to be
less generous than that provided
under the present program for
federally impacted areas"
The impact grants are made
under public laws BIS and 875.

years, the report notes that Fed

than one-eighth of the cost of

have been increased by Federal
