Sec. 300x-30. Maintenance of effort regarding State expenditures


(a) In general

    With respect to the principal agency of a State for carrying out 
authorized activities, a funding agreement for a grant under section 
300x-21 of this title for the State for a fiscal year is that such 
agency will for such year maintain aggregate State expenditures for 
authorized activities at a level that is not less than the average level 
of such expenditures maintained by the State for the 2-year period 
preceding the fiscal year for which the State is applying for the grant.

(b) Waiver

                           (1) In general

        Upon the request of a State, the Secretary may waive all or part 
    of the requirement established in subsection (a) of this section if 
    the Secretary determines that extraordinary economic conditions in 
    the State justify the waiver.

              (2) Date certain for acting upon request

        The Secretary shall approve or deny a request for a waiver under 
    paragraph (1) not later than 120 days after the date on which the 
    request is made.

                     (3) Applicability of waiver

        Any waiver provided by the Secretary under paragraph (1) shall 
    be applicable only to the fiscal year involved.

(c) Noncompliance by State

                           (1) In general

        In making a grant under section 300x-21 of this title to a State 
    for a fiscal year, the Secretary shall make a determination of 
    whether, for the previous fiscal year, the State maintained material 
    compliance with any agreement made under subsection (a) of this 
    section. If the Secretary determines that a State has failed to 
    maintain such compliance, the Secretary shall reduce the amount of 
    the allotment under section 300x-21 of this title for the State for 
    the fiscal year for which the grant is being made by an amount equal 
    to the amount constituting such failure for the previous fiscal 
    year.

             (2) Submission of information to Secretary

        The Secretary may make a grant under section 300x-21 of this 
    title for a fiscal year only if the State involved submits to the 
    Secretary information sufficient for the Secretary to make the 
    determination required in paragraph (1).
