Sec. 692.10 How does the Secretary allot funds to the States? (a)(1) The Secretary allots to each State participating in the SSIG program an amount which bears the same ratio to the Federal SSIG funds appropriated as the number of students in that State who are "deemed eligible" to participate in the State's SSIG program bears to the total number of students in all States who are "deemed eligible" to participate in the SSIG program, except that no State may receive less than it received in fiscal year 1979. (2) If the Federal SSIG funds appropriated for a fiscal year are not sufficient to allot to each State the amount of Federal SSIG funds it received in fiscal year 1979, the Secretary allots to each State an amount which bears the same ratio to the amount of Federal SSIG funds appropriated as the amount of Federal SSIG funds that State received in fiscal year 1979 bears to the amount of Federal SSIG funds all States received in fiscal year 1979. (b) For the purpose of paragraph (a)(1) of this section, the Secretary determines the number of students "deemed eligible" to participate in a State's SSIG Program by dividing the amount of that State's SSIG expenditures, including both its Federal allotment and the State-appropriated funds matching the allotment, by the average grant award per student of all participating States. The Secretary determines the "average grant award per student" by dividing the total number of student recipients for all States into the total amount of SSIG expenditures for all States, including both the Federal allotments and the State-appropriated funds matching those allotments. In making this determination, the Secretary uses the most current available data reported by each State. (Authority: 20 U.S.C. 1070c) Sec. 692.11 For what purposes may a State use its payments under the program? A State may use the funds it receives under this part only to make grants to students and to pay wages or salaries to students in community service-learning jobs. (Authority: 20 U.S.C. 1070c)
Sec. 692.20 What must a State do to receive an allotment under this program? (a) To participate in the State Student Incentive Grant Program, a State shall enter into an agreement with the Secretary under section 1203 of the HEA (Federal-State Relationship Agreement). (b) For each fiscal year that it wishes to participate, a State shall submit an application that contains information that shows that its State Student Incentive Grant Program meets the requirements of Sec. 692.21. (c)(1) Except as provided in paragraph (c)(2) of this section, the State shall submit its application through the State agency designated in its Federal-State Relationship Agreement to administer its State Student Incentive Grant Program as of July 1, 1985. (2) If the Governor of the State so designates, and notifies the Secretary through a modification to the State's Federal-State Relationship Agreement, the State may submit its application under paragraph (b) of this section through an agency that did not administer its State Student Incentive Grant Program as of July 1, 1985.
