NECTAC: Child Care Licensing Regulations can be attributed in part to federal legislation At least one child with special needs is currently enrolled in most The role of state child care regulations in http://www.nectac.org/topics/inclusion/meetings/rs_ccregs.asp
Extractions: SITE MAP A content analysis of child care licensing regulations was recently conducted to determine the extent to which regulations include provisions for children with special needs. Policy documents from the child care licensing agencies in four case study states were reviewed. Reviewers targeted requirements for child care centers in the areas of admission policy; adaptation of centers' physical environment, schedules and activities; special training for caregivers; consultation with specialists, and participation on a team of specialists for children with special needs. These efforts are part of a larger study that examined the relationship between state licensing regulations for child care and recommended practices for quality. Funded by the Office of Education Research and Improvement, the purpose of this research is to increase our knowledge and understanding of barriers to quality in early care and education settings, particularly as they relate to children's readiness for school.

The NPDES Storm Water Permit Program requires the implementation of stormwater programs. Currently the NPDES storm water permit program (Phase I) applies to only six local governments (Seattle, Tacoma, and the unincorporated areas of Snohomish, King, Pierce and Clark counties) and to Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) facilities within the legal boundaries of those jurisdictions. Industrial facilities that were owned or operated by municipalities with a population of less than 100,000 were previously exempted from the requirement to obtain a stormwater discharge permit.

Impact Of New Federal Regulations On High Schools Explained many and varied changes coming from both the state and federal government enrollment figures and a breakdown identifying the various special needs in grades http://boothbayregister.maine.com/2002-12-19/school_regulations.html
Extractions: The December 11 School Committee meeting included a presentation by Curriculum Director Mary Patrick and BRHS (Boothbay Region High School) Principal Jack Tourtillotte on the new federal regulations for high schools regarding graduation requirements. These regulations are the result of 15 years worth of teacher input. As an introduction to the presentation Tourtillotte related the history behind the Maine State Learning Results. The idea behind the Maine Learning Results, developed by the state, was to devise a set of goals that every high school graduate was to meet. There was debate within public forums across the state and the state legislature on what these goals should be. An example of one of the Learning Results is: every high school graduate will be an effective communicator and be able to demonstrate that ability. This learning result (and all others) were then assigned a set of 8 - 10 standards or indicators determining how students would achieve such an ability. After the Results became law, the state then required schools to ensure the Results were being carried out through documentation. A year ago, Chapter 127 was revised to align the Chapter's rules with the Maine State Learning Results. This year's eighth grade class will be the first class affected by the revised rules of Chapter 127 for graduation in 2007.

School system personnel and parents have been anxiously awaiting the final regulations since the release of the "draft" regulations in October 1997 in hopes that the final document would provide further guidance and stop the debate about controversial sections of the law, for example, the discipline of students with disabilities. Also, the NC Department of Public Instruction, Exceptional Children Division could not finish revising the state PROCEDURES Governing Programs and Services for Children with Special Needs without the final federal regulations. The regulations of most interest to families are those related to Part B of IDEA. The following pages of this Special Edition NEWS LINE only provide an overview of the changes made between the "draft" and the final regulations.

Extractions: Child Care Regulations Fail to Protect Low Income Children By Susan C. Antos On October 1 st the Office of Children and Family Services filed amendments to 18 NYCRR Part 415, imposing health and safety standards on informal providers, defining terms which relate to the unavailability of child care for public assistance recipients and codifying the practice of requiring public assistance recipients to search out informal care providers if they fail to find their own regulated care. These regulations were filed on an emergency basis only, and will expire on December 29, 1999. Since no notice of proposed rulemaking was filed, the time to comment on these regulations has not yet started to run although the Office of Children and Family Services has stated that they will accept comments at any time. The regulations provide a "guarantee" of child care services to recipients of family assistance who need care to participate in work activities, and provide that public assistance may not be terminated if child care is unavailable or unsuitable. However, these regulations make clear that public assistance recipients do not have a right to a guarantee of regulated care, which eviscerates the parental choice provisions in the federal regulations.

Extractions: It may be inconceivable to you that your homebased consulting service or handknit sweater business would have to comply with any of the numerous local, state and federal regulations, but in all likelihood it will. Avoid the temptation to ignore regulatory details. Doing so may avert some red tape in the short term, but could be an obstacle as your business grows. Taking the time to research the applicable regulations is as important as knowing your market. Below is a checklist of the most common requirements that affect small businesses, but it is by no means exhaustive. Bear in mind that regulations vary by industry. If you're in the food service business, for example, you will have to deal with the health department. If you use chemical solvents, you will have environmental compliance to meet. Carefully investigate the regulations that affect your industry. Being out of compliance could leave you unprotected legally, lead to expensive penalties, and jeopardize your business. Business Licenses There are many types of licenses. You need one to operate legally almost everywhere. If the business is located within an incorporated city limits, a license must be obtained from the city; if outside the city limits, then from the county.

Adoption Assistance For Children With Special Needs back 3 Note When the 1996 federal welfare reform states Adoption Assistance for Children With special needs (488 KB be in other sections of a state s code as http://naic.acf.hhs.gov/laws/sneeds.cfm
Extractions: Adoption Assistance for Children With Special Needs Children with special needs may qualify for adoption assistance (also called "adoption subsidy"), which is paid to adoptive families to help them defray expenses related to their child's need for ongoing therapies or treatment. There are two major funding sources of adoption assistance (subsidy): the Federal Title IV-E program under the Social Security Act and State programs, which vary from State to State. Adoption subsidy programs are typically categorized by the manner in which they are funded. Under the Federal Adoption Assistance Program, Federal Title IV-E matching funds are given to States that provide adoption assistance payments to parents who adopt children with special needs. The children must be eligible for Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) (according to AFDC eligibility requirements in effect in June 1996) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI). In addition, the program authorizes Federal matching funds for States that reimburse the non-recurring adoption expenses of adoptive parents of children with special needs, regardless of AFDC or SSI eligibility.
