"SEC. 205. (a) The Secretary may make not more than two grants to any public or nonprofit entity which— "(1) has an approved application for a grant under section 203 or 211, and "(2) can reasonably be expected to have an operating deficit, for the period for which a grant is or will be made under such application, which is greater than the amount of the grant the entity is receiving or will receive under such application, for the entity's reasonable costs in providing mental health services which are described in section 201(b)(1) but which the entity did not provide before the date of the enactment of the Community Mental Health Centers Amendments of 1975. " (b)(1) Each grant under subsection (a) to an entity shall be made for the same period as the period for which the grant under section 203 or 211 for which the entity had an approved application is or will be made. "(2) The amount of any grant under subsection (a) to any entity shall be determined by the Secretary, but no such grant may exceed that part of the entity's projected operating deficit for the year for which the grant is made which is reasonably attributable to its costs of providing in such year the services with respect to which the grant is made. For purposes of this paragraph, the term 'projected operating deficit' means the excess of an entity's projected costs of operation (including the costs of operation related to the provision of services for which a grant may be made under subsection (a)) for a particular period over the total of the amount of State, local, and other funds (including funds under a grant under section 203, 204, or 211) received by the entity in that period and the fees, premiums, and thirdparty reimbursements which the entity may reasonably be expected to collect during that period.
