§ 57.3805 - When do the requirements of 57.3804 apply?

(a) The period of time in which any entity will have to meet all the requirements or § 57.3804 will be negotiated on a case-by-case basis, depending upon the nature and scope of the planned area health education center program. No cooperative agreement, however, shall provide funds solely for the planning or development of a program for a period of longer than two years.

(b) Each area health education center program must begin planning for at least one center during the first year of support so that at least one center is fully operational and meets all the applicable requirements of § 57.3804 during the third year of support. Additional centers may be phased in during the first four years of Federal support except that once planning for any center is initiated, it must become fully operational and meet all the applicable requirements of § 57.3804 within three years.

(c) Each school with which the Secretary enters into a cooperative agreement under this subpart must meet all the requirements of § 57.3804 during the first four years of Federal support, except that once planning to add any school is initiated, it must meet all the applicable requirements of § 57.3804 within three years.
