Synopsis of 2015 Supplement

    The 2015 Supplement adds five new programs and deletes 11 programs 
(including nine completed under the American Recovery and Reinvestment 
Act). It has also updated for program changes and technical 
corrections. In addition, it removed two compliance requirements from 
the standard list of such requirements: Davis Bacon (formerly 
compliance requirement D) and Real Property Acquisition and Relocation 
Assistance (formerly compliance requirement K). Part 3--Compliance 
Requirements is divided into two subparts. Subpart 3.1 is applicable to 
awards issued prior to December 26, 2014 and Subpart 3.2 is applicable 
to awards issued on or after December 26, 2014.
    The five added programs are:

Opportunities, and Revived Economies of the Gulf Coast States

Loan Cancellations (part of Student Financial Aid Cluster)

    A list of changes to the 2015 Supplement can be found at Appendix 
V. Appendix VII provides an audit alert concerning deletion of American 
Recovery and Reinvestment Act programs from clusters (which accounts 
for many of the deleted programs), an updated coverage treatment of
