which immediate action is required, in which case they will be later replaced by more detailed subpart. CSA Notices are binding on the grantees to which they apply as shown in Appendix B to this subpart.

(3) Guidances: These issuances are not binding on the grantee but are designed to offer suggestions as to how particular functions may be performed better. Since these issuances are not directive they are not included in the Appendix to this subpart but are issued periodically on a separate listing.

(4) Handbooks: These issuances include publications sometimes titled "pamphlets or manuals" and collect information relating to one subject. The information compiled in a handbook is drawn from Instructions, Notices and Guidances arranged for programmatic convenience in one document.

(c) Prior System. (1) Prior to June 1968 when the present system went into effect, CSA's predecessor agency, OEO, issued its regulations through the use of Community Action Memos, Technical Assistance Memos and CAP Guides Volumes I and II.

(2) Although many of these regulations remained in effect when the new system became effective in 1968 they were never incorporated into the system until 1971. At that time those portions still in effect were given new numbers which were taken from CSA's current numbering system. The attached Appendix B reflects those remaining in effect. They can be Identified by the Community Action Memo or Technical Assistance or CAP Guide section number appearing in parenthesis below the subject classification number.

(3) It should be noted that since those sections in the CAP Guides which were obsolete were removed, there is not, in all cases, continuity between reprinted sections. When only certain paragraphs of a section were still in effect, accompanying paragraphs of that section were reprinted to make the context of the effective paragraphs clearer. However, a heavy line was drawn through the obsolete sections.

§ 1067.50-4 Determining applicability.

(a) Appendix B to this subpart is a chart which lists all CSA directives which are still in effect as of the effective date of subpart. The chart indicates to which of seven general categories of grants each directive applies. The seven categories correspond to sections of the EOA under which grants are authorized. (A grantee may determine the section of the Act under which its grant was made by checking Block 7 of CSA Form 314, "Statement of CSA Grant" which approved the grant.) An "X" in any column of the chart indicates that the directive applies to that grant category. In some cases, however, directives applicable to grants under Section 221/222(a) apply only to Community Action Agencies (CAAs), and not to limited purpose agencies funded under those sections. This is indicated by "CAA" in lieu of "X" in the "221/222(a)” column. (Any directive not included in this list has been superseded and is no longer binding on the grantee.)

(b) Instructions and Notices contain an applicability section which indicates which types of grants are covered by the issuance. Normally, this applicability is expressed in terms of specific statutory authority under which the grant is made. However, the applicability of CSA regulations shown in Appendix B supersedes applicability language stated explicitly on the face of each directive, or by implication, in the body of the directive's text which follows. (For example, by its terms OEO Instruction 6710-1, "Applying for a CAP Grant" applies only to CAAs. Since its applicability has been expanded to apply to grantees other than CAAs, the term "CAA" wherever referred to as a grantee or a prospective grantee shall be understood to include grantees other than CAAs unless the contrary is required by context.)

(c) Although a particular issuance may not be applicable to a general category of grants, such as to grants funded under Section 232, the special conditions to an individual grant in that category may make such an issuance applicable.

§ 1067.50-5 Procedures.

(a) Appendix A to this subpart lists additions, deletions and extension of regulations since issuance of the last Index (May 12, 1977).

(b) Appendix B to this subpart contains a listing of all current policy statements applicable to grantees I funded by the Community Services Administration.

(c) Grantees should check all sets of issuances which they may have to determine their accuracy and complete#ness. Missing items in these sets may be ordered from:

= (1) CSA Publications and Distribution Center, 49 L Street, SE., Washington, D.C. 20001.

(2) Please do not order complete sets ⚫ since they are not available. However, individual items are in stock.

(d) A complete revision of Appendix EB will be issued quarterly.

[ocr errors]

(e) Grantees should cross-check all issuances in their possession and take the following actions:

(1) Remove all issuances which are not listed on the chart, or which are not applicable to them.

(2) On those issuances listed on the chart, make pen-and-ink changes in the applicability sections, as necessary, to conform to the applicability status shown on the chart (e.g., adding and/ or deleting sections or titles which do not/do appear on the original issuance.)

§ 1067.50-6 Distribution to delegate agencies.

Each grantee should assure that at least one copy of all Instructions has been forwarded to the Director of each of its delegate agencies. In addition, the grantee should establish a distribution system which will assure that each recipient (including delegate agencies) will also be furnished all quarterly indices and new issuances.
