Allowance may be made for—

Except as provided in paragraph (c)(2) of this section, a lead agency under this part may not charge indirect costs to its part C grant.
If approved by the lead agency's cognizant Federal agency or by the Secretary, the lead agency must charge indirect costs through either—
