*Title: * Child Care and Development Fund Plan for State/Territories.
*OMB No.: * 0970-0114.
*Description: * The ACF-118, the Child Care and Development (CCDF) Plan for States and Territories, is required from the child care lead agency by section 658E of the Child Care and Development Block Grant Act of 1990 (Pub. L. 101-508, 42 U.S.C. 9858). The implementing regulations for the Statutorily required Plan are at 45 CFR 98.10 through 98.19. The Plan is required biennially and remains in effect for two years. States/Territories have completed the ACF-118 for the FFY 2000-2001 biennium. However, approval for the ACF-118 expires May 31, 2000. States and Territories may amend during a biennium. Therefore, in order to provide continually for the Plan process, ACF is requesting that the current approval of the ACF-118 be extended through the end of the biennium, *i.e.,* September 30, 2001. The Tribal Plan (ACF-118A) is not affected by this notice.
*Respondents: * State, Local or Tribal Govt.
