 (b)  In addition to the requirements incorporated by reference in 34 CFR 300.301 (relating to initial evaluations), the initial evaluation shall be completed and a copy of the evaluation report presented to the parents no later than 60 calendar days after the agency receives written parental consent for evaluation, except that the calendar days from the day of the last day of the spring school term up to and including the day before the first day of the subsequent fall school term will not be counted.
