1 A supplemental of $1,276,000 thousand is proposed to eliminate the projected fiscal year 2002 funding shortfall, which when enacted would increase the Pell Grants 2002 appropriation to $11,590,000 thousand. The supplemental funds for Pell Grants are to be completely offset by a rescission of funds from unrequested earmarks and low-priority programs in the fiscal year 2002 appropriations for the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education. The specific rescissions from each agency would be determined by congressional appropriations action.
2 Includes $25,000 thousand in fiscal year 2001 and $37,000 thousand in fiscal year 2002 for Special LEAP, pursuant to HEA Section 415A(b)(2) which states that when the appropriation for LEAP exceeds $30,000 thousand, the excess shall be reserved to carry out Special LEAP authorized under HEA Section 415E.
