services to the entity, shall authorize the entity to consolidate,

in accordance with such plan, the federally funded education and

related services programs of the entity and the Federal programs,

or portions of the programs, serving Indian students in a manner

that integrates the program services involved into a single,

coordinated, comprehensive program and reduces administrative costs

by consolidating administrative functions.

(c) Programs affected

The funds that may be consolidated in a demonstration project

under any such plan referred to in subsection (a) of this section

shall include funds for any Federal program exclusively serving

Indian children, or the funds reserved under any Federal program to

exclusively serve Indian children, under which the entity is

eligible for receipt of funds under a statutory or administrative

formula for the purposes of providing education and related

services that would be used to serve Indian students.

(d) Plan requirements

For a plan to be acceptable pursuant to subsection (b) of this

section, the plan shall -

enable the entity to implement the plan. Notwithstanding any other

provision of law, the Secretary of the affected department shall

have the authority to waive any regulation, policy, or procedure

promulgated by that department that has been so identified by the

which the program involved derives authority that are specifically

applicable to Indian students.

(f) Plan approval

Within 90 days after the receipt of an entity's plan by the

Secretary, the Secretary shall inform the entity, in writing, of

necessary to provide for an interagency transfer of funds otherwise

available to an eligible entity in order to further the objectives

of this section.

(l) Administration of funds

(1) In general

Program funds for the consolidated programs shall be

administered in such a manner as to allow for a determination

that funds from a specific program are spent on allowable

activities authorized under such program, except that the

eligible entity shall determine the proportion of the funds

granted that shall be allocated to such program.

(2) Separate records not required

Nothing in this section shall be construed as requiring the

eligible entity to maintain separate records tracing any services

or activities conducted under the approved plan to the individual

programs under which funds were authorized for the services or

activities, nor shall the eligible entity be required to allocate

expenditures among such individual programs.

(m) Overage

programs) shall be considered to be properly spent for Federal

audit purposes, if the overage is used for the purposes provided

more effectively their education and related services to Indian

students in a manner consistent with the objectives of this

section.

Secretary makes the payment.

(b) Payments taken into account by the State

The Secretary may not make a grant under this subpart to a local

educational agency for a fiscal year if, for such fiscal year, the

State in which the local educational agency is located takes into

consideration payments made under this chapter (FOOTNOTE 1) in

determining the eligibility of the local educational agency for

State aid, or the amount of the State aid, with respect to the free

public education of children during such fiscal year or the

preceding fiscal year.

(FOOTNOTE 1) So in original. Probably should be ''this

subpart''.

(c) Reduction of payment for failure to maintain fiscal effort

(1) In general

The Secretary may not pay a local educational agency the full

amount of a grant award determined under section 7423 of this

title for any fiscal year unless the State educational agency

notifies the Secretary, and the Secretary determines, that with

respect to the provision of free public education by the local

educational agency for the preceding fiscal year, the combined

fiscal effort of the local educational agency and the State,

computed on either a per student or aggregate expenditure basis,

was not less than 90 percent of the amount of the combined fiscal

effort, computed on the same basis, for the second preceding

fiscal year.

(2) Failure to maintain effort

If, for the preceding fiscal year, the Secretary determines

that a local educational agency and State failed to maintain the

combined fiscal effort for such agency at the level specified in

paragraph (1), the Secretary shall -

(A) reduce the amount of the grant that would otherwise be

made to such agency under this subpart in the exact proportion

of the failure to maintain the fiscal effort at such level; and

(B) not use the reduced amount of the agency and State

expenditures for the preceding year to determine compliance

with paragraph (1) for any succeeding fiscal year, but shall

use the amount of expenditures that would have been required to

comply with paragraph (1).

(3) Waiver

(A) In general

The Secretary may waive the requirement of paragraph (1) for

a local educational agency, for not more than 1 year at a time,

if the Secretary determines that the failure to comply with

such requirement is due to exceptional or uncontrollable

circumstances, such as a natural disaster or a precipitous and

unforeseen decline in the agency's financial resources.

(B) Future determinations

The Secretary shall not use the reduced amount of the

agency's expenditures for the fiscal year preceding the fiscal

year for which a waiver is granted to determine compliance with

paragraph (1) for any succeeding fiscal year, but shall use the

amount of expenditures that would have been required to comply

with paragraph (1) in the absence of the waiver.

(d) Reallocations

The Secretary may reallocate, in a manner that the Secretary

determines will best carry out the purpose of this subpart, any

amounts that -

(1) based on estimates made by local educational agencies or

other information, the Secretary determines will not be needed by

such agencies to carry out approved programs under this subpart;

or

(2) otherwise become available for reallocation under this

subpart.

Sec. 7512. Findings

-STATUTE-

Congress finds the following:

(1) Native Hawaiians are a distinct and unique indigenous

people with a historical continuity to the original inhabitants

of the Hawaiian archipelago, whose society was organized as a

nation and internationally recognized as a nation by the United

States, Britain, France, and Japan, as evidenced by treaties

governing friendship, commerce, and navigation.

(2) At the time of the arrival of the first nonindigenous

people in Hawaii in 1778, the Native Hawaiian people lived in a

highly organized, self-sufficient subsistence social system based

on a communal land tenure system with a sophisticated language,

culture, and religion.

(3) A unified monarchal government of the Hawaiian Islands was

established in 1810 under Kamehameha I, the first King of Hawaii.

(4) From 1826 until 1893, the United States recognized the

sovereignty and independence of the Kingdom of Hawaii, which was

established in 1810 under Kamehameha I, extended full and

complete diplomatic recognition to the Kingdom of Hawaii, and

entered into treaties and conventions with the Kingdom of Hawaii

to govern friendship, commerce and navigation in 1826, 1842,

1849, 1875, and 1887.

(5) In 1893, the sovereign, independent, internationally

recognized, and indigenous government of Hawaii, the Kingdom of

Hawaii, was overthrown by a small group of non-Hawaiians,

including United States citizens, who were assisted in their

efforts by the United States Minister, a United States naval

representative, and armed naval forces of the United States.

Because of the participation of United States agents and citizens

in the overthrow of the Kingdom of Hawaii, in 1993 the United

States apologized to Native Hawaiians for the overthrow and the

deprivation of the rights of Native Hawaiians to

self-determination through Public Law 103-150 (107 Stat. 1510).

(6) In 1898, the joint resolution entitled ''Joint Resolution

to provide for annexing the Hawaiian Islands to the United

States'', approved July 7, 1898 (30 Stat. 750), ceded absolute

title of all lands held by the Republic of Hawaii, including the

government and crown lands of the former Kingdom of Hawaii, to

the United States, but mandated that revenue generated from the

lands be used ''solely for the benefit of the inhabitants of the

Hawaiian Islands for educational and other public purposes''.

(7) By 1919, the Native Hawaiian population had declined from

an estimated 1,000,000 in 1778 to an alarming 22,600, and in

recognition of this severe decline, Congress enacted the Hawaiian

Homes Commission Act, 1920 (42 Stat. 108), which designated

approximately 200,000 acres of ceded public lands for

homesteading by Native Hawaiians.

(8) Through the enactment of the Hawaiian Homes Commission Act,

1920, Congress affirmed the special relationship between the

United States and the Native Hawaiians, which was described by

then Secretary of the Interior Franklin K. Lane, who said: ''One

thing that impressed me . . . was the fact that the natives of

the island who are our wards, I should say, and for whom in a

sense we are trustees, are falling off rapidly in numbers and

many of them are in poverty.''.

(9) In 1938, Congress again acknowledged the unique status of

the Hawaiian people by including in the Act of June 20, 1938 (52

Stat. 781, chapter 530; 16 U.S.C. 391b, 391b-1, 392b, 392c, 396,

396a), a provision to lease lands within the National Parks

extension to Native Hawaiians and to permit fishing in the area

''only by native Hawaiian residents of said area or of adjacent

villages and by visitors under their guidance.''.

(10) Under the Act entitled ''An Act to provide for the

admission of the State of Hawaii into the Union'', approved March

18, 1959 (73 Stat. 4), the United States transferred

responsibility for the administration of the Hawaiian Home Lands

to the State of Hawaii but reaffirmed the trust relationship

between the United States and the Hawaiian people by retaining

the exclusive power to enforce the trust, including the power to

approve land exchanges and amendments to such Act affecting the

rights of beneficiaries under such Act.

(11) In 1959, under the Act entitled ''An Act to provide for

the admission of the State of Hawaii into the Union'', the United

States also ceded to the State of Hawaii title to the public

lands formerly held by the United States, but mandated that such

lands be held by the State ''in public trust'' and reaffirmed the

special relationship that existed between the United States and

the Hawaiian people by retaining the legal responsibility to

enforce the public trust responsibility of the State of Hawaii

for the betterment of the conditions of Native Hawaiians, as

defined in section 201(a) of the Hawaiian Homes Commission Act,

1920.

(12) The United States has recognized and reaffirmed that -

(A) Native Hawaiians have a cultural, historic, and

land-based link to the indigenous people who exercised

sovereignty over the Hawaiian Islands, and that group has never

relinquished its claims to sovereignty or its sovereign lands;

(B) Congress does not extend services to Native Hawaiians

because of their race, but because of their unique status as

the indigenous people of a once sovereign nation as to whom the

United States has established a trust relationship;

(C) Congress has also delegated broad authority to administer

a portion of the Federal trust responsibility to the State of

Hawaii;

(D) the political status of Native Hawaiians is comparable to

that of American Indians and Alaska Natives; and

(E) the aboriginal, indigenous people of the United States

have -

(i) a continuing right to autonomy in their internal

affairs; and

(ii) an ongoing right of self-determination and

self-governance that has never been extinguished.

(13) The political relationship between the United States and

the Native Hawaiian people has been recognized and reaffirmed by

the United States, as evidenced by the inclusion of Native

Hawaiians in -

(A) the Native American Programs Act of 1974 (42 U.S.C. 2991

et seq.);

(B) the American Indian Religious Freedom Act (42 U.S.C.

1996(, 1996a));

(C) the National Museum of the American Indian Act (20 U.S.C.

80q et seq.);

(D) the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation

Act (25 U.S.C. 3001 et seq.);

(E) the National Historic Preservation Act (16 U.S.C. 470 et

seq.);

(F) the Native American Languages Act (25 U.S.C. 2901 et

seq.);

(G) the American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian

Culture and Art Development Act (20 U.S.C. 4401 et seq.);

(H) the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 (29 U.S.C. 2801 et

seq.); and

(I) the Older Americans Act of 1965 (42 U.S.C. 3001 et seq.).

(14) In 1981, Congress instructed the Office of Education to

submit to Congress a comprehensive report on Native Hawaiian

education. The report, entitled the ''Native Hawaiian

Educational Assessment Project'', was released in 1983 and

documented that Native Hawaiians scored below parity with regard

to national norms on standardized achievement tests, were

disproportionately represented in many negative social and

physical statistics indicative of special educational needs, and

had educational needs that were related to their unique cultural

situation, such as different learning styles and low self-image.

(15) In recognition of the educational needs of Native

Hawaiians, in 1988, Congress enacted title IV of the Augustus F.

Hawkins-Robert T. Stafford Elementary and Secondary School

Improvement Amendments of 1988 (102 Stat. 130) to authorize and

develop supplemental educational programs to address the unique

conditions of Native Hawaiians.

(16) In 1993, the Kamehameha Schools Bishop Estate released a

10-year update of findings of the Native Hawaiian Educational

Assessment Project, which found that despite the successes of the

programs established under title IV of the Augustus F.

Hawkins-Robert T. Stafford Elementary and Secondary School

Improvement Amendments of 1988, many of the same educational

needs still existed for Native Hawaiians. Subsequent reports by

the Kamehameha Schools Bishop Estate and other organizations have

generally confirmed those findings. For example -

(A) educational risk factors continue to start even before

birth for many Native Hawaiian children, including -

(i) late or no prenatal care;

(ii) high rates of births by Native Hawaiian women who are

unmarried; and

(iii) high rates of births to teenage parents;

(B) Native Hawaiian students continue to begin their school

experience lagging behind other students in terms of readiness

factors such as vocabulary test scores;

(C) Native Hawaiian students continue to score below national

norms on standardized education achievement tests at all grade

levels;

(D) both public and private schools continue to show a

pattern of lower percentages of Native Hawaiian students in the

uppermost achievement levels and in gifted and talented

programs;

(E) Native Hawaiian students continue to be overrepresented

among students qualifying for special education programs

provided to students with learning disabilities, mild mental

retardation, emotional impairment, and other such disabilities;

(F) Native Hawaiians continue to be underrepresented in

institutions of higher education and among adults who have

completed four or more years of college;

(G) Native Hawaiians continue to be disproportionately

represented in many negative social and physical statistics

indicative of special educational needs, as demonstrated by the

fact that -

(i) Native Hawaiian students are more likely to be retained

in grade level and to be excessively absent in secondary

school;

(ii) Native Hawaiian students have the highest rates of

drug and alcohol use in the State of Hawaii; and

(iii) Native Hawaiian children continue to be

disproportionately victimized by child abuse and neglect; and

(H) Native Hawaiians now comprise over 23 percent of the

students served by the State of Hawaii Department of Education,

and there are and will continue to be geographically rural,

isolated areas with a high Native Hawaiian population density.

(17) In the 1998 National Assessment of Educational Progress,

Hawaiian fourth-graders ranked 39th among groups of students from

39 States in reading. Given that Hawaiian students rank among

the lowest groups of students nationally in reading, and that

Native Hawaiian students rank the lowest among Hawaiian students

in reading, it is imperative that greater focus be placed on

beginning reading and early education and literacy in Hawaii.

(18) The findings described in paragraphs (16) and (17) are

inconsistent with the high rates of literacy and integration of

traditional culture and Western education historically achieved

by Native Hawaiians through a Hawaiian language-based public

school system established in 1840 by Kamehameha III.

(19) Following the overthrow of the Kingdom of Hawaii in 1893,

Hawaiian medium schools were banned. After annexation,

throughout the territorial and statehood period of Hawaii, and

until 1986, use of the Hawaiian language as an instructional

medium in education in public schools was declared unlawful. The

declaration caused incalculable harm to a culture that placed a

very high value on the power of language, as exemplified in the

traditional saying: ''I ka ''oAE8lelo noAE8 ke ola; I ka

''oAE8lelo noAE8 ka make. In the language rests life; In the

language rests death.''.

(20) Despite the consequences of over 100 years of

nonindigenous influence, the Native Hawaiian people are

determined to preserve, develop, and transmit to future

generations their ancestral territory and their cultural identity

in accordance with their own spiritual and traditional beliefs,

customs, practices, language, and social institutions.

(21) The State of Hawaii, in the constitution and statutes of

the State of Hawaii -

(A) reaffirms and protects the unique right of the Native

Hawaiian people to practice and perpetuate their culture and

religious customs, beliefs, practices, and language;

(B) recognizes the traditional language of the Native

Hawaiian people as an official language of the State of Hawaii,

which may be used as the language of instruction for all

subjects and grades in the public school system; and

(C) promotes the study of the Hawaiian culture, language, and

history by providing a Hawaiian education program and using

community expertise as a suitable and essential means to

further the program.

Sec. 7542. Findings

-STATUTE-

Congress finds and declares the following:

(1) The attainment of educational success is critical to the

betterment of the conditions, long-term well-being, and

preservation of the culture of Alaska Natives.

(2) It is the policy of the Federal Government to encourage the

maximum participation by Alaska Natives in the planning and the

management of Alaska Native education programs.

(3) Alaska Native children enter and exit school with serious

educational handicaps.

(4) The educational achievement of Alaska Native children is

far below national norms. Native performance on standardized

tests is low, Native student dropout rates are high, and Natives

are significantly underrepresented among holders of baccalaureate

degrees in the State of Alaska. As a result, Native students are

being denied their opportunity to become full participants in

society by grade school and high school educations that are

condemning an entire generation to an underclass status and a

life of limited choices.

(5) The programs authorized in this part, combined with

expanded Head Start, infant learning, and early childhood

education programs, and parent education programs, are essential

if educational handicaps are to be overcome.

(6) The sheer magnitude of the geographic barriers to be

overcome in delivering educational services in rural Alaska and

Alaska villages should be addressed through the development and

implementation of innovative, model programs in a variety of

areas.

(7) Native children should be afforded the opportunity to begin

their formal education on a par with their non-Native peers. The

Federal Government should lend support to efforts developed by

and undertaken within the Alaska Native community to improve

educational opportunity for all students.

Sec. 7701. Purpose

-STATUTE-

In order to fulfill the Federal responsibility to assist with the

provision of educational services to federally connected children

in a manner that promotes control by local educational agencies

with little or no Federal or State involvement, because certain

activities of the Federal Government, such as activities to fulfill

the responsibilities of the Federal Government with respect to

Indian tribes and activities under section 574 of title 50,

Appendix, place a financial burden on the local educational

agencies serving areas where such activities are carried out, and

to help such children meet challenging State standards, it is the

purpose of this subchapter to provide financial assistance to local

educational agencies that -

(1) experience a substantial and continuing financial burden

due to the acquisition of real property by the United States;

(2) educate children who reside on Federal property and whose

parents are employed on Federal property;

(3) educate children of parents who are in the military

services and children who live in low-rent housing;

(4) educate heavy concentrations of children whose parents are

civilian employees of the Federal Government and do not reside on

Federal property; or

(5) need special assistance with capital expenditures for

construction activities because of the enrollments of substantial

numbers of children who reside on Federal lands and because of

the difficulty of raising local revenue through bond referendums

for capital projects due to the inability to tax Federal

property.

-STATUTE-

(a) In general

Where the Secretary, after consultation with any local

educational agency and with the appropriate State educational

(B) was not acquired by exchange for other Federal property

in the local educational agency which the United States owned

before 1939; and

(C) had an assessed value (determined as of the time or times

when so acquired) aggregating 10 percent or more of the

assessed value of -

(i) all real property in the local educational agency

(similarly determined as of the time or times when such

Federal property was so acquired); or

(ii) all real property in the local educational agency as

assessed in the first year preceding or succeeding

acquisition, whichever is greater, only if -

(I) the assessment of all real property in the local

educational agency is not made at the same time or times

that such Federal property was so acquired and assessed;

and

(II) State law requires an assessment be made of property

so acquired; and

(2) that such agency is not being substantially compensated for

the loss in revenue resulting from such ownership by increases in

revenue accruing to the agency from the conduct of Federal

activities with respect to such Federal property,

then such agency shall be eligible to receive the amount described

in subsection (b) of this section.

(b) Amount

(1) In general

(A)(i)(I) Subject to subclauses (II) and (III), the amount that

a local educational agency shall be paid under subsection (a) of

this section for a fiscal year shall be calculated in accordance

with paragraph (2).

(II) Except as provided in subclause (III), the Secretary may

not reduce the amount of a payment under this section to a local

educational agency for a fiscal year by (aa) the amount equal to

the amount of revenue, if any, the agency received during the

previous fiscal year from activities conducted on Federal

fiscal year and (bb) the amount of revenue described in subclause

(II)(aa) received by the agency during the previous fiscal year,

exceeds the maximum amount the agency is eligible to receive

under this section for the fiscal year involved, then the

such agency is eligible to receive for such fiscal year under

section 7703(b)(1)(C) of this title, or the maximum amount that

such agency is eligible to receive for such fiscal year under

this section, whichever is greater.

In calculating the amount that a local educational agency is

eligible to receive for a fiscal year, the Secretary shall apply

agencies, or imputed for fiscally dependent local educational

agencies, to the current annually determined aggregate assessed

value of such acquired Federal property.

(3) Determination of aggregate assessed value

Such aggregate assessed value of such acquired Federal property

shall be determined on the basis of the highest and best use of

property adjacent to such acquired Federal property as of the

time such value is determined, and provided to the Secretary, by

the local official responsible for assessing the value of real

property located in the jurisdiction of such local educational

agency for the purpose of levying a property tax.

(c) Applicability to Tennessee Valley Authority Act

For the purpose of this section, any real property with respect

(C) Insufficient appropriations

If the amount appropriated under section 7714(a) of this

title is insufficient to pay the full amount determined under

this paragraph for all eligible local educational agencies for

educational agency shall be determined as follows:

(i) Calculate the difference between the amount

appropriated to carry out this section for fiscal year 1995

and the total amount of foundation payments made under

paragraph (1) for the fiscal year.

(ii) Determine the percentage share for each local

educational agency described in subparagraph (A) by dividing

the assessed value of the Federal property of the local

(A) the Secretary shall make a payment to each local

educational agency that received a foundation payment under

paragraph (1) for the fiscal year involved in an amount that

bears the same relation to 25 percent of the remainder as the

amount the local educational agency received under paragraph

(1) for the fiscal year involved bears to the amount all local

educational agencies received under paragraph (1) for the

fiscal year involved; and

(B) the Secretary shall make a payment to each local

educational agency that is eligible to receive a payment under

this section for the fiscal year involved in an amount that

bears the same relation to 75 percent of the remainder as a

percentage share determined for the local educational agency

(by dividing the maximum amount that the agency is eligible to

receive under subsection (b) of this section by the total of

the maximum amounts for all such agencies) bears to the

percentage share determined (in the same manner) for all local

educational agencies eligible to receive a payment under this

section for the fiscal year involved, except that, for the

purpose of calculating a local educational agency's maximum

amount under subsection (b) of this section, data from the most

current fiscal year shall be used.

For any fiscal year beginning with fiscal year 2000 for which

the amount appropriated to carry out this section exceeds the

amount so appropriated for fiscal year 1996 and for which

subsection (b)(1)(B) of this section applies, the Secretary shall

the difference between (A) the amount appropriated to carry out

this section for fiscal year 1997 and (B) the amount appropriated

to carry out this section for fiscal year 1996) to increase the

years after the date of acquisition.

(n) Loss of eligibility

(1) In general

Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, the

Secretary shall make a minimum payment to a local educational

agency described in paragraph (2), for the first fiscal year that

the agency loses eligibility for assistance under this section as

a result of property located within the school district served by

to 90 percent of the amount received by the agency under this

section for the preceding year.

-STATUTE-

(a) Computation of payment

(1) In general

For the purpose of computing the amount that a local

educational agency is eligible to receive under subsection (b) or

(d) of this section for any fiscal year, the Secretary shall

determine the number of children who were in average daily

attendance in the schools of such agency, and for whom such

agency provided free public education, during the preceding

school year and who, while in attendance at such schools -

(A)(i) resided on Federal property with a parent employed on

Federal property situated in whole or in part within the

boundaries of the school district of such agency; or

(ii) resided on Federal property with a parent who is an

official of, and accredited by, a foreign government and is a

foreign military officer;

(B) resided on Federal property and had a parent on active

duty in the uniformed services (as defined in section 101 of

title 37);

(C) resided on Indian lands;

(D)(i) had a parent on active duty in the uniformed services

(as defined by section 101 of title 37) but did not reside on

(ii) had a parent who is an official of, and has been

accredited by, a foreign government and is a foreign military

officer but did not reside on Federal property;

(E) resided in low-rent housing;

(F) resided on Federal property and is not described in

subparagraph (A) or (B); or

(G) resided with a parent employed on Federal property

situated -

is located, or in whole or in part in such agency if such

agency is located in more than one county; or

(ii) if not in such county, in whole or in part in the same

State as such agency.

(2) Determination of weighted student units

For the purpose of computing the basic support payment under

subsection (b) of this section, the Secretary shall calculate the

total number of weighted student units for a local educational

agency by adding together the results obtained by the following

computations:

(A) Multiply the number of children described in

subparagraphs (A) and (B) of paragraph (1) by a factor of 1.0.

(B) Multiply the number of children described in paragraph

(1)(C) by a factor of 1.25.

(C) Multiply the number of children described in

subparagraphs (A) and (B) of paragraph (1) by a factor of .35

if the local educational agency has -

(i) a number of such children described in such

subparagraphs which exceeds 6,500; and

(ii) an average daily attendance for all children which

exceeds 100,000.

(D) Multiply the number of children described in subparagraph

(D) of paragraph (1) by a factor of .20.

(E) Multiply the number of children described in subparagraph

(E) of paragraph (1) by a factor of .10.

(F) Multiply the number of children described in

subparagraphs (F) and (G) of paragraph (1) by a factor of .05.

(3) Special rule

The Secretary shall only compute a payment for a local

educational agency for children described in subparagraph (F) or

(G) of paragraph (1) if the number of such children equals or

exceeds 1,000 or such number equals or exceeds 10 percent of the

total number of students in average daily attendance in the

schools of such agency.

(4) Military installation and Indian housing undergoing

renovation or rebuilding

(A) In general

(i) For purposes of computing the amount of a payment for a

local educational agency for children described in paragraph

(1)(D)(i), the Secretary shall consider such children to be

children described in paragraph (1)(B) if the Secretary

determines, on the basis of a certification provided to the

Secretary by a designated representative of the Secretary of

Defense, that such children would have resided in housing on

Federal property in accordance with paragraph (1)(B) except

that such housing was undergoing renovation or rebuilding on

the date for which the Secretary determines the number of

children under paragraph (1).

(ii) For purposes of computing the amount of a payment for a

local educational agency that received a payment for children

that resided on Indian lands in accordance with paragraph

(1)(C) for the fiscal year prior to the fiscal year for which

the local educational agency is making an application, the

Secretary shall consider such children to be children described

in paragraph (1)(C) if the Secretary determines, on the basis

of a certification provided to the Secretary by a designated

representative of the Secretary of the Interior or the

Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, that such children

would have resided in housing on Indian lands in accordance

with paragraph (1)(C) except that such housing was undergoing

renovation or rebuilding on the date for which the Secretary

determines the number of children under paragraph (1).

(B) Limitations

(i)(I) Children described in paragraph (1)(D)(i) may be

deemed to be children described in paragraph (1)(B) with

respect to housing on Federal property undergoing renovation or

rebuilding in accordance with subparagraph (A)(i) for a period

not to exceed 3 fiscal years.

(II) The number of children described in paragraph (1)(D)(i)

who are deemed to be children described in paragraph (1)(B)

with respect to housing on Federal property undergoing

renovation or rebuilding in accordance with subparagraph (A)(i)

for any fiscal year may not exceed the maximum number of

children who are expected to occupy that housing upon

completion of the renovation or rebuilding.

(ii)(I) Children that resided on Indian lands in accordance

with paragraph (1)(C) for the fiscal year prior to the fiscal

year for which the local educational agency is making an

application may be deemed to be children described in paragraph

(1)(C) with respect to housing on Indian lands undergoing

renovation or rebuilding in accordance with subparagraph

(A)(ii) for a period not to exceed 3 fiscal years.

(II) The number of children that resided on Indian lands in

accordance with paragraph (1)(C) for the fiscal year prior to

the fiscal year for which the local educational agency is

making an application who are deemed to be children described

in paragraph (1)(C) with respect to housing on Indian lands

undergoing renovation or rebuilding in accordance with

subparagraph (A)(ii) for any fiscal year may not exceed the

maximum number of children who are expected to occupy that

housing upon completion of the renovation or rebuilding.

(5) Military ''Build to Lease'' program housing

(A) In general

For purposes of computing the amount of payment for a local

educational agency for children identified under paragraph (1),

the Secretary shall consider children residing in housing

initially acquired or constructed under the former section

2828(g) of title 10 (commonly known as the ''Build to Lease''

program), as added by section 801 of the Military Construction

Authorization Act, 1984, to be children described under

paragraph (1)(B) if the property described is within the fenced

security perimeter of the military facility upon which such

housing is situated.

(B) Additional requirements

If the property described in subparagraph (A) is not owned by

the Federal Government, is subject to taxation by a State or

political subdivision of a State, and thereby generates

revenues for a local educational agency that is applying to

receive a payment under this section, then the Secretary -

(i) shall require the local educational agency to provide

certification from an appropriate official of the Department

of Defense that the property is being used to provide

military housing; and

(ii) shall reduce the amount of the payment under this

section by an amount equal to the amount of revenue from such

taxation received in the second preceding fiscal year by such

local educational agency, unless the amount of such revenue

was taken into account by the State for such second preceding

fiscal year and already resulted in a reduction in the amount

of State aid paid to such local educational agency.

(b) Basic support payments; insufficient appropriations; State with

only one local educational agency

(1) Basic support payments

(A) In general

From the amount appropriated under section 7714(b) of this

title for a fiscal year, the Secretary is authorized to make

basic support payments to eligible local educational agencies

with children described in subsection (a) of this section.

(B) Eligibility

A local educational agency is eligible to receive a basic

support payment under subparagraph (A) for a fiscal year with

respect to a number of children determined under subsection

(a)(1) of this section only if the number of children so

determined with respect to such agency amounts to the lesser of

-

(i) at least 400 such children; or

(ii) a number of such children which equals at least 3

percent of the total number of children who were in average

daily attendance, during such year, at the schools of such

agency and for whom such agency provided free public

education.

(C) Maximum amount

The maximum amount that a local educational agency is

eligible to receive under this paragraph for any fiscal year is

the sum of the total weighted student units, as computed under

subsection (a)(2) of this section, multiplied by the greater of

-

(i) one-half of the average per-pupil expenditure of the

State in which the local educational agency is located for

the third fiscal year preceding the fiscal year for which the

determination is made;

(ii) one-half of the average per-pupil expenditure of all

of the States for the third fiscal year preceding the fiscal

year for which the determination is made;

(iii) the comparable local contribution rate certified by

the State, as determined under regulations prescribed to

carry out the Act of September 30, 1950 (Public Law 874, 81st

Congress), as such regulations were in effect on January 1,

1994; or

(iv) the average per-pupil expenditure of the State in

which the local educational agency is located, multiplied by

the local contribution percentage.

(D) Data

If satisfactory data from the third preceding fiscal year are

not available for any of the expenditures described in clause

(i) or (ii) of subparagraph (C), the Secretary shall use data

from the most recent fiscal year for which data that are

satisfactory to the Secretary are available.

(E) Special rule

For purposes of determining the comparable local contribution

rate under subparagraph (C)(iii) for a local educational agency

described in section 222.39(c)(3) of title 34, Code of Federal

Regulations, that had its comparable local contribution rate

for fiscal year 1998 calculated pursuant to section 222.39 of

title 34, Code of Federal Regulations, the Secretary shall

determine such comparable local contribution rate as the rate

upon which payments under this subsection for fiscal year 2000

were made to the local educational agency adjusted by the

percentage increase or decrease in the per pupil expenditure in

the State serving the local educational agency calculated on

the basis of the second most recent preceding school year

compared to the third most recent preceding school year for

which school year data are available.

(F) Increase in local contribution rate due to unusual

geographic factors

If the current expenditures in those local educational

agencies which the Secretary has determined to be generally

comparable to the local educational agency for which a

computation is made under subparagraph (C) are not reasonably

comparable because of unusual geographical factors which affect

the current expenditures necessary to maintain, in such agency,

a level of education equivalent to that maintained in such

other agencies, then the Secretary shall increase the local

contribution rate for such agency under subparagraph (C)(iii)

by such an amount which the Secretary determines will

compensate such agency for the increase in current expenditures

necessitated by such unusual geographical factors. The amount

of any such supplementary payment may not exceed the per-pupil

share (computed with regard to all children in average daily

attendance), as determined by the Secretary, of the increased

current expenditures necessitated by such unusual geographic

factors.

(G) Beginning with fiscal year 2002, for the purpose of

calculating a payment under this paragraph for a local

educational agency whose local contribution rate was computed

under subparagraph (C)(iii) for the previous year, the

Secretary shall use a local contribution rate that is not less

than 95 percent of the rate that the LEA received for the

preceding year.

(2) Basic support payments for heavily impacted local educational

agencies

(A) In general

(i) From the amount appropriated under section 7714(b) of

this title for a fiscal year, the Secretary is authorized to

make basic support payments to eligible heavily impacted local

educational agencies with children described in subsection (a)

payment under this paragraph for a fiscal year shall not be

eligible to receive a basic support payment under paragraph (1)

for that fiscal year.

local educational agency with a total student enrollment of

less than 350 students shall be deemed to have satisfied

such per-pupil expenditure requirement, and has a tax rate

for general fund purposes which is not less than 95 percent

of the average tax rate for general fund purposes of local

educational agencies in the State;

(cc) has an enrollment of children described in

day before October 30, 2000).

(ii) Loss of eligibility

A heavily impacted local educational agency that met the

requirements of clause (i) for a fiscal year shall be

ineligible to receive a basic support payment under

subparagraph (A) if the agency fails to meet the requirements

of clause (i) for a subsequent fiscal year, except that such

agency shall continue to receive a basic support payment

under this paragraph for the fiscal year for which the

ineligibility determination is made.

(iii) Resumption of eligibility

clause (i) that becomes ineligible under such clause for 1 or

more fiscal years may resume eligibility for a basic support

payment under this paragraph for a subsequent fiscal year

only if the agency meets the requirements of clause (i) for

that subsequent fiscal year, except that such agency shall

not receive a basic support payment under this paragraph

until the fiscal year succeeding the fiscal year for which

the eligibility determination is made.

(ii) Resumption of eligibility

A heavily impacted local educational agency described in

clause (i) that becomes ineligible under such clause for 1 or

more fiscal years may resume eligibility for a basic support

payment under this paragraph for a subsequent fiscal year

only if the agency is a local educational agency whose

boundaries are the same as a Federal military installation

(or if the agency is a qualified local educational agency as

described in clause (iv)), or meets the requirements of

clause (i), for that subsequent fiscal year, except that such

agency shall continue to receive a basic support payment

under this paragraph for the fiscal year for which the

ineligibility determination is made.

impacted local educational agency described in clause (i)

applies for a basic support payment under subparagraph (A),

or with respect to the first fiscal year for which a heavily

impacted local educational agency applies for a basic support

payment under subparagraph (A) after becoming ineligible

(D) Maximum amount for regular heavily impacted local

educational agencies

(i) Except as provided in subparagraph (E), the maximum

amount that a heavily impacted local educational agency is

eligible to receive under this paragraph for any fiscal year is

the sum of the total weighted student units, as computed under

subsection (a)(2) of this section and subject to clause (ii),

multiplied by the greater of -

(I) four-fifths of the average per-pupil expenditure of the

State in which the local educational agency is located for

the third fiscal year preceding the fiscal year for which the

determination is made; or

(II) four-fifths of the average per-pupil expenditure of

all of the States for the third fiscal year preceding the

fiscal year for which the determination is made.

(ii)(I) For a local educational agency with respect to which

35 percent or more of the total student enrollment of the

schools of the agency are children described in subparagraph

(D) or (E) (or a combination thereof) of subsection (a)(1) of

this section, the Secretary shall calculate the weighted

student units of such children for purposes of subsection

(a)(2) of this section by multiplying the number of such

children by a factor of 0.55.

are children described in subparagraphs (A) and (B) of

subsection (a)(1) of this section.

(ii) For purposes of calculating the maximum amount described

in clause (i), the factor used in determining the weighted

student units under subsection (a)(2) of this section with

respect to children described in subparagraphs (A) and (B) of

subsection (a)(1) of this section shall be 1.35.

agencies in the State.

(H) Eligibility for heavily impacted local educational agencies

affected by privatization of military housing

(i) Eligibility

For any fiscal year beginning with fiscal year 2003, a

heavily impacted local educational agency that received a

basic support payment under subparagraph (A) for the prior

fiscal year, but is ineligible for such payment for the

current fiscal year under subparagraph (B) or (C), as the

case may be, by reason of the conversion of military housing

units to private housing described in clause (iii), shall be

deemed to meet the eligibility requirements under

subparagraph (B) or (C), as the case may be, for the period

during which the housing units are undergoing such

conversion.

(ii) Amount of payment

The amount of a payment to a heavily impacted local

educational agency for a fiscal year by reason of the

application of clause (i), and calculated in accordance with

subparagraph (D) or (E) (as the case may be), shall be based

on the number of children in average daily attendance in the

schools of such agency for the fiscal year.

other related provision of law.

(3) Payments with respect to fiscal years in which insufficient

funds are appropriated

(A) In general

local educational agency the full amount computed under

paragraphs (1) and (2), the Secretary shall make payments in

accordance with this paragraph.

(B) Learning opportunity threshold payments in lieu of payments

under paragraph (1)

(i) For fiscal years described in subparagraph (A), the

Secretary shall compute a learning opportunity threshold

payment (hereafter in this subchapter referred to as the

''threshold payment'') in lieu of basic support payments under

paragraph (1) by multiplying the amount obtained under

paragraph (1)(C) by the total percentage obtained by adding -

(I) the percentage of federally connected children for each

local educational agency determined by calculating the

fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of

children described under subsection (a)(1) of this section

and the denominator of which is the total number of children

in average daily attendance at the schools served by such

agency; and

(II) the percentage that funds under paragraph (1)(C)

represent of the total budget of the local educational

agency, determined by calculating the fraction, the numerator

of which is the total amount of funds calculated for each

local educational agency under this paragraph, and the

denominator of which is the total current expenditures for

such agency in the second preceding fiscal year for which the

determination is made.

(ii) Such total percentage used to calculate threshold

payments under paragraph (1) shall not exceed 100.

(iii) For the purpose of determining the percentages

described in subclauses (I) and (II) of clause (i) that are

applicable to the local educational agency providing free

public education to students in grades 9 through 12 residing on

Hanscom Air Force Base, Massachusetts, the Secretary shall

consider only that portion of such agency's total enrollment of

students in grades 9 through 12 when calculating the percentage

under such subclause (I) and only that portion of the total

current expenditures attributed to the operation of grades 9

through 12 in such agency when calculating the percentage under

subclause (II).

(iv) In the case of a local educational agency that has a

total student enrollment of fewer than 1,000 students and that

has a per-pupil expenditure that is less than the average

per-pupil expenditure of the State in which the agency is

located or less than the average per-pupil expenditure of all

the States, the total percentage used to calculate threshold

payments under clause (i) shall not be less than 40 percent.

(C) Learning opportunity threshold payments in lieu of payments

under paragraph (2)

For fiscal years described in subparagraph (A), the learning

opportunity threshold payment in lieu of basic support payments

under paragraph (2) shall be equal to the amount obtained under

subparagraph (D) or (E) of paragraph (2), as the case may be.

(D) Ratable distribution

For fiscal years described in subparagraph (A), the Secretary

shall make payments as a ratable distribution based upon the

computations made under subparagraphs (B) and (C).

(4) States with only one local educational agency

(A) In general

In any of the 50 States of the United States in which there

is only one local educational agency, the Secretary shall, for

purposes of subparagraphs (B) and (C) of paragraph (1) or

subparagraphs (B) through (D) of paragraph (2), as the case may

be, paragraph (3) of this subsection, and subsection (e) of

this section, consider each administrative school district in

the State to be a separate local educational agency.

(B) Computation of maximum amount of basic support payment and

threshold payment

In computing the maximum payment amount under paragraph

(1)(C) or subparagraph (D) or (E) of paragraph (2), as the case

may be, and the learning opportunity threshold payment under

subparagraph (B) or (C) of paragraph (3), as the case may be,

for an administrative school district described in subparagraph

(A) -

(i) the Secretary shall first determine the maximum payment

amount and the total current expenditures for the State as a

whole; and

(ii) the Secretary shall then -

(I) proportionately allocate such maximum payment amount

among the administrative school districts on the basis of

the respective weighted student units of such districts;

and

(II) proportionately allocate such total current

expenditures among the administrative school districts on

the basis of the respective number of students in average

daily attendance at such districts.

In computing the amount of a basic support payment under this

subsection for a fiscal year for a local educational agency

described in subparagraph (B), the Secretary shall meet the

additional requirements described in subparagraph (C).

free public education at a school of the agency, is transferred

by the Federal Government to another entity in any fiscal year

beginning on or after October 30, 2000, so that the property is

subject to taxation by the State or a political subdivision of

the State.

(C) Additional requirements

The additional requirements described in this subparagraph

are the following:

(i) For each fiscal year beginning after the date on which

the Federal property is transferred, a child described in

subparagraph (B) who continues to reside on such property and

who continues to receive a free public education at a school

of the agency shall be deemed to be a child who resides on

Federal property for purposes of computing under the

applicable subparagraph of subsection (a)(1) of this section

the amount that the agency is eligible to receive under this

subsection.

(ii)(I) For the third fiscal year beginning after the date

on which the Federal property is transferred, and for each

fiscal year thereafter, the Secretary shall, after computing

the amount that the agency is otherwise eligible to receive

under this subsection for the fiscal year involved, deduct

from such amount an amount equal to the revenue received by

the agency for the immediately preceding fiscal year as a

result of the taxable status of the former Federal property.

(II) For purposes of determining the amount of revenue to

be deducted in accordance with subclause (I), the local

educational agency -

(aa) shall provide for a review and certification of such

amount by an appropriate local tax authority; and

agency determined under paragraph (1) or (2) of subsection (b) of

this section, as the case may be.

(3) Ratable reductions

(A) In general

If the sums made available under this subchapter for any

receive under paragraph (1) for such year, then the Secretary

shall ratably reduce the payments to all such agencies for such

year.

(B) Additional funds

If additional funds become available for making payments

under paragraph (1) for such fiscal year, payments that were

reduced under subparagraph (A) shall be increased on the same

basis as such payments were reduced.

(f) Other funds

Notwithstanding any other provision of law, a local educational

agency receiving funds under this section may also receive funds

under section 386 of the National Defense Authorization Act for

Fiscal Year 1993 or such section's successor authority.

Sec. 7709. State consideration of payments in providing State aid

-STATUTE-

(a) General prohibition

Except as provided in subsection (b) of this section, a State may

not -

(1) consider payments under this subchapter in determining for

any fiscal year -

(A) the eligibility of a local educational agency for State

aid for free public education; or

(B) the amount of such aid; or

(2) make such aid available to local educational agencies in a

manner that results in less State aid to any local educational

agency that is eligible for such payment than such agency would

receive if such agency were not so eligible.

(b) State equalization plans

(1) In general

A State may reduce State aid to a local educational agency that

receives a payment under section 7702 or 7703(b) of this title

(except the amount calculated in excess of 1.0 under section

7703(a)(2)(B) of this title and, with respect to a local

educational agency that receives a payment under section

7703(b)(2) of this title, the amount in excess of the amount that

the agency would receive if the agency were deemed to be an

agency eligible to receive a payment under section 7703(b)(1) of

this title and not section 7703(b)(2) of this title) for any

fiscal year if the Secretary determines, and certifies under

subsection (c)(3)(A) of this section, that the State has in

effect a program of State aid that equalizes expenditures for

free public education among local educational agencies in the

State.

(2) Computation

(A) In general

For purposes of paragraph (1), a program of State aid

equalizes expenditures among local educational agencies if, in

the second fiscal year preceding the fiscal year for which the

determination is made, the amount of per-pupil expenditures

made by, or per-pupil revenues available to, the local

educational agency in the State with the highest such per-pupil

expenditures or revenues did not exceed the amount of such

per-pupil expenditures made by, or per-pupil revenues available

to, the local educational agency in the State with the lowest

such expenditures or revenues by more than 25 percent.

(B) Other factors

In making a determination under this subsection, the

Secretary shall -

(i) disregard local educational agencies with per-pupil

expenditures or revenues above the 95th percentile or below

the 5th percentile of such expenditures or revenues in the

State; and

(ii) take into account the extent to which a program of

State aid reflects the additional cost of providing free

public education in particular types of local educational

agencies, such as those that are geographically isolated, or

to particular types of students, such as children with

disabilities.

(3) Exception

Notwithstanding paragraph (2), if the Secretary determines that

the State has substantially revised its program of State aid, the

Secretary may certify such program for any fiscal year only if -

(A) the Secretary determines, on the basis of projected data,

that the State's program will meet the disparity standard

described in paragraph (2) for the fiscal year for which the

determination is made; and

(B) the State provides an assurance to the Secretary that, if

final data do not demonstrate that the State's program met such

standard for the fiscal year for which the determination is

made, the State will pay to each affected local educational

agency the amount by which the State reduced State aid to the

local educational agency.

(c) Procedures for review of State equalization plans

(1) Written notice

(A) In general

Any State that wishes to consider payments described in

subsection (b)(1) of this section in providing State aid to

local educational agencies shall submit to the Secretary, not

later than 120 days before the beginning of the State's fiscal

year, a written notice of such State's intention to do so.

(B) Contents

Such notice shall be in the form and contain the information

the Secretary requires, including evidence that the State has

notified each local educational agency in the State of such

State's intention to consider such payments in providing State

aid.

(2) Opportunity to present views

Before making a determination under subsection (b) of this

section, the Secretary shall afford the State, and local

educational agencies in the State, an opportunity to present

their views.

(3) Qualification procedures

If the Secretary determines that a program of State aid

qualifies under subsection (b) of this section, the Secretary

shall -

(A) certify the program and so notify the State; and

(B) afford an opportunity for a hearing, in accordance with

section 7711(a) of this title, to any local educational agency

adversely affected by such certification.

(4) Nonqualification procedures

If the Secretary determines that a program of State aid does

not qualify under subsection (b) of this section, the Secretary

shall -

(A) so notify the State; and

(B) afford an opportunity for a hearing, in accordance with

section 7711(a) of this title, to the State, and to any local

educational agency adversely affected by such determination.

(d) Treatment of State aid

(1) In general

If a State has in effect a program of State aid for free public

education for any fiscal year, which is designed to equalize

expenditures for free public education among the local

educational agencies of that State, payments under this

subchapter for any fiscal year may be taken into consideration by

such State in determining the relative -

(A) financial resources available to local educational

agencies in that State; and

(B) financial need of such agencies for the provision of free

public education for children served by such agency, except

that a State may consider as local resources funds received

under this subchapter only in proportion to the share that

local tax revenues covered under a State equalization program

are of total local tax revenues.

(2) Prohibition

A State may not take into consideration payments under this

subchapter before such State's program of State aid has been

certified by the Secretary under subsection (c)(3) of this

section.

(e) Remedies for State violations

(1) In general

The Secretary or any aggrieved local educational agency may,

not earlier than 150 days after an adverse determination by the

Secretary against a State for violation of subsections (a) or

(d)(2) of this section or for failure to carry out an assurance

under subsection (b)(3)(B) of this section, and if an

administrative proceeding has not been concluded within such

time, bring an action in a United States district court against

such State for such violations or failure.

(2) Immunity

A State shall not be immune under the 11th amendment to the

Constitution of the United States from an action described in

paragraph (1).

(3) Relief

The court shall grant such relief as the court determines is

appropriate.

program for any fiscal year only if the State educational agency

finds that either the combined fiscal effort per student or the

fiscal effort or aggregate expenditures for the second preceding

fiscal year.

The State educational agency shall reduce the amount of the

allocation of funds under a covered program in any fiscal year in

No such lesser amount shall be used for computing the effort

required under subsection (a) of this section for subsequent

years.
