Sec.  1304.61  Noncompliance.

    (a) If the responsible HHS official, as a result of information 
obtained from a review of an Early Head Start or Head Start grantee, 
determines that the grantee is not in compliance with Federal or State 
requirements (including, but not limited to, the Head Start Act or one 
or more of the regulations under parts 1301, 1304, 1305, 1306 or 1308 of 
this title) in ways that do not constitute a deficiency, he or she will 
notify the grantee promptly, in writing, of the finding, identifying the 
area or areas of noncompliance to be corrected and specifying the period 
in which they must corrected.
    (b) Early Head Start or Head Start grantees which have received 
written notification of an area of noncompliance to be corrected must 
correct the area of noncompliance within the time period specified by 
the responsible HHS official. A grantee which is unable or unwilling to 
correct the specified areas of noncompliance within the prescribed time 
period will be judged to have a deficiency which must be corrected, 
either immediately or pursuant to a Quality Improvement Plan (see 45 CFR 
1304.3(a)(6)(iii) and 45 CFR 1304.60).
