Yes. In addition to the requirements for the use of IDEA funds, if an LEA uses Recovery funds for construction, it must comply with specific requirements relating to the use of American iron, steel and manufactured goods used in the project (ARRA §1605), as well as the wage rate provisions (ARRA §1606). Also, ARRA §1604 prohibits the use of any ARRA funds, including IDEA Recovery funds, for any casino, or other gambling establishment, aquarium, zoo, golf course, or swimming pool.
