Estimated Annual Component Administrative Cost $5,398.20 Not supplanting. Describe how the State agency ensures that costs attributed to the E&T program are not supplanting funds used for other existing educational programs. E&T funds will not be used to supplant non-Federal funds or existing educational services. Supplanting will not happen because DHS does not provide Hawaii DOE with any funds to operate any ELA services that Hawaii DOE provides. Hawaii DOE utilizes its own state and federal funds to operate its EPEL programs that serve all individuals in Hawaii, including E&T participants. The E&T program provides reimbursement directly to the E&T participant for any fees that the participant is charged. Such fees would be the same amount that all individuals who elect to take the English Language Acquisition programs offered by the Hawaii DOE are charged. Cost parity. Describe how the State agency ensures that costs charged to E&T do not exceed the costs charged for non-E&T participants. The E&T program is charged an amount equal to the fees charged to non-E&T participants for the same activity. Each campus offering courses through the Community School for Adults post their fees on their websites and the E&T case manager verifies the E&T participant paid the required fees and provides reimbursement of such fees. The E&T case manager verifies that the posted fees on each campus’ website matches the fees that the participant has paid. 1/28/26, 11:52 AM State Plan HI FY26 - Original Submission https://dam-fns.usda.gov/sites/default/files/microsite/snapet-hify26stateplan//index.html 53/86
