SUMMARY: This notice sets forth the Fiscal Year 1995 individual
allotments to States administering the Basic Support and Protection and
Advocacy programs, pursuant to section 125 and section 142 of the
Developmental Disabilities Assistance and Bill of Rights Act (Act). The
allotments for the States published herein are based upon Fiscal Year

approves an amount different from the Fiscal Year 1995 budget request,
the allotments will be adjusted accordingly.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Bettye J. Mobley, Chief, Family
Support Branch, Office of Financial Management, Administration for
Children and Families, Department of Health and Human Services, 370
L'Enfant Promenade SW. , Washington, DC 20447, Telephone (202) 401-
6955.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 125(a)(2) of the Act requires that
adjustments in the amounts of State allotments may be made not more
often than annually and that States are to be notified not less than
six (6) months before the beginning of any fiscal year of any
adjustments to take effect in that fiscal year.
The Administration on Developmental Disabilities has updated the
data elements for issuance of Fiscal Year 1995 allotments for the
Developmental Disabilities formula grant programs. The data elements
used in the update are:
A. The number of beneficiaries in each State and Territory under
the Childhood Disabilities Beneficiary Program, December 1992, are from
Table 5.J10 of the ``Social Security Bulletin: Annual Statistical
Supplement 1993'' issued by the Social Security Administration, U.S.
Department of Health and Human Services. The numbers for the Northern
Mariana Islands and the Trust Territories of the Pacific Islands, were
obtained from the Social Security Administration;
B. State data on Average Per Capita Income, 1987-92, are from Table
1, page 74 of the ``Survey of Current Business,'' September 1993,
issued by the Bureau of Economic Analysis, U.S. Department of Commerce;
comparable data for the Territories also were obtained from that
Bureau; and
C. State data on Total Population and Working Population (ages 18-
64) as of July 1, 1992, are from ``Current Population Reports:
Population Estimates and Projections, Series P-25, Number 1010, issued
by the Bureau of the Census, U.S. Department of Commerce. Estimates for
the Territories are no longer available, therefore, the Territories
population data are from the 1990 Census Population Counts. The
Territories' working populations were issued in the Bureau of Census
report, ``General Characteristics Report: 1980,'' which is the most
recent data available from the Bureau.

\1\The 1990 Amendments to the Developmental Disabilities Assistance and
Bill of Rights Act (the Act) provided that the Republic of the
Marshall Islands, the Federated States of Micronesia and the Republic
of Palau (formerly the Trust Territories of the Pacific Islands
(TTPI)) each would receive a minimum allotment under the Basic Support
formula program.
\2\Prior to the Act, TTPI had been eligible for a single minimum
allotment under both programs, Basic Support and Protection and
Advocacy. Under the 1990 Amendments, TTPI continues to be eligible for
a single minimum amount under the Protection and Advocacy program;
however, under the Compact of Free Association, P. L. 99-239, only the
Republic of Palau continues to be eligible to receive funds under the
Protection and Advocacy program. Therefore, the Republic of Palau will
receive its proportional share of the TTPI allotment, and the
remainder will be withheld for reallotment in accordance with section
142(b)(1) of the Act.
