View Rule

The Education Department General Administrative Regulations (EDGAR) will be revised to make a variety of updates and revisions, including to update and clarify evidence-related components, to clarify how the Department makes determinations related to continuation awards under competitive grant programs, and to expand flexibility for grantees by clarifying that, where not prohibited by law or the terms and conditions of the grant award, subgranting authority rests with States. The Department received public input on the evidence-related components and continuous improvement during the development of the proposed rule and in the public comments to the proposed rule and we are considering this input for the final rule. In addition, the Department plans to amend these regulations where they are outdated in order to be consistent with current law.
