Correction

In FR Doc. No. 2016-29907, in the Federal Register of December 13, 2016 (81 FR 89911), we make the following corrections:

(a) On page 89913, in the left column under the heading Competitive Preference Priorities, we remove “six” and “10,” and add in their place “seven” and “11,” respectively.

The revisions read as follows:

Competitive Preference Priorities: For FY 2017, these priorities are competitive preference priorities. Under 34 CFR 280.30(f), we will award up to seven additional points to an application, depending on how well the applicant addresses Competitive Preference Priorities 1, 2, and 3. Under 34 CFR 75.105(c)(2)(i) we will award up to an additional four points to an application, depending on how well the application addresses Competitive Preference Priority 4. Together, depending on how well the application meets these priorities, an application may be awarded up to a total of 11 additional points. Applicants may apply under any, all, or none of the competitive preference priorities. The maximum possible points for each competitive preference priority are indicated in parentheses following the name of the priority. These points are in addition to any points the application earns under the selection criteria in this notice.

(b) On page 89918, in the right column under the heading V. Application Review Information, we remove “110” and add in its place “111”.

The revision reads as follows:

Points awarded under these selection criteria are in addition to any points an applicant earns under the competitive preference priorities in this notice. The maximum score that an application may receive under the competitive preference priorities and the selection criteria is 111 points.
