Summary

Local leaders must apply to the state's office. If the state does not give reasons in writing for denial within 45 days, the application counts as approved, fully or partly, and the local is eligible. The state must give notice and a chance to reconsider before denying. When the Bureau gives funds to a state, the state must pass them to approved locals within 45 days after the Bureau made them available; the Director may waive that deadline if state law prevents it.
