Iowa Admin. Code r. 421-22.3 - Local administering agencies (LAAs)
(1) The department shall administer the
LIHEAP program by contracting with LAAs meeting program and fiscal guidelines
as required by federal law. Contracts with the LAAs will specify required and
allowable program activities, DHHS regulations, special conditions, transfer of
electronic data to fuel vendors and the state, program and fiscal reporting to
the department, and audit requirements.
(2) Each LAA will conduct outreach activities
to ensure that eligible households are made aware of the program. In addition
to its normal outreach functions, each LAA will authorize its workers to take
applications in an applicant's home as well as at local community, church, and
elderly centers and other locations deemed appropriate. A notice of the appeal
and hearing procedure must be posted at each intake site, and a copy of the
appeal and hearing procedure and any other state-required handouts must be
given to each client at the time of application or determination.
