340:105-10-14. State Plan amendments

Revised 5-13-02

(a) Policy.  The State Agency may amend the State Plan whenever necessary to reflect:

(1) new or revised federal statutes or regulations;

(2) a material change in any law, organization, policy or State Agency operation; or

(3) information required annually by Section 307(a)(15) of the Older Americans Act, as amended.

(b) Authority.  The authority for this Section is Title 45 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 1321.19.

(c) Procedures.  State Plan amendments are submitted to the State Council on Aging, Department of Human Services Executive Office, and Governor for approval prior to being submitted to the Administration on Aging regional office for final approval.  Amendments to the State Plan, which have the potential for substantially impacting older Oklahomans, go through the public hearing process as outlined in OAC 340:105-10-13(c)(10) through (13).

(d) Cross references.  See OAC 340:105-10-13.
