to add funds or, if required by Congressional action, to reduce the
amount of funds available for expenditure.
(b) The INA grantee may request Departmental approval to modify its
plan to add, expand, delete, or diminish any service allowable under
these regulations. The INA grantee may modify its plan without

number which exceeds 25 percent of the participants previously proposed
to be served, or by 25 participants, whichever is larger.
(c) The Department will act upon any modification within thirty
(30) calendar days of receipt of the proposed modification. In the
event that further clarification or modification is required, the
Department may extend the thirty (30) day time frame to conclude
appropriate negotiations.
