## Abstract

This rule amends the regulations for the U.S. Repatriate Program. Under the U.S. Repatriate Program, State agencies provide assistance to groups of United States citizens who are returned from foreign countries to the United States by the Department of State due to war, threat of war, civil disorder, or natural disaster. This rule requires such agencies to request and obtain advance approval from the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) to incur expenses for developing and preparing to implement repatriation plans for groups of eligible persons. This rule is necessary in order for ACF to provide appropriate oversight of the limited funding available for such activities.
