Annual State Application Under Part B of the Individuals with Disabilities Act as Amended in 2004

The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), signed on December 3, 2004, became PL 108-446. In accordance with 20 U.S.C. 1412(a), a State is eligible for assistance under Part B for a fiscal year if the State submits a plan that provides assurances to the Secretary that the State has in effect policies and procedures to ensure that the State meets each of the conditions found in 20 U.S.C. 1412. Information Collection 1820-0030 is being revised to remove the Significant Disproportionality data collection under IDEA section 618(d) and 34 CFR §§300.646 and 300.647 from Section V of the Annual State Application under Part B of the IDEA. The Department believes that removal of the data collection related to Significant Disproportionality will reduce the burden on respondents when completing the Annual State Application under Part B of IDEA. The remaining sections of the Annual State Application under Part B of IDEA are being extended so that States can provide assurances that they either have or do not have in effect policies and procedures to meet the eligibility requirements of Part B of the Act as found in PL 108-446. Information Collection 1820-0030 corresponds with 34 CFR §§ 300.100-176; 300.199; 300.640-645; and 300.705. These sections include the requirement that the Secretary and local educational agencies located in the State be notified of any State-imposed rule, regulation, or policy that is not required by this title and Federal regulations.
