DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION
Direct Grant Programs
AGENCY: Department of Education.
ACTION: Notice of extension of application deadline dates for certain
direct grant programs under which the Secretary is making new awards.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Secretary extends the deadline dates for the submission of
applications under certain direct grant programs under which the
Secretary is making new awards for fiscal year (FY) 1994, as well as
applications for funding under section 3 of Impact Aid Maintenance and
Operations for FY 1995. The Secretary also revises the deadlines for
(1) intergovernmental review for those programs subject to the
requirements of Executive Order 12372 (Intergovernmental Review of
Federal Programs); and (2) State educational agency (SEA) comments for
applications under section 2 or 3 of Impact Aid Maintenance and
Operations. The Secretary takes this action to allow more time for the
preparation and submission of applications by potential applicants
adversely affected by severe weather conditions in various areas of the
Nation or by the recent earthquake in California. The extensions are
intended to help these potential applicants compete fairly with other
applicants under these programs.
Note: The programs in this notice are in two groups depending on
the deadline dates originally or previously announced. The two
groups are identified in the Supplementary Information section of
the notice.
DATES: The new deadline date for transmitting applications under each
program in Group I is February 25, 1994. The new deadline date for
transmitting applications under each program in Group II is listed with
that program.
For programs in Group I that are subject to Executive Order 12372,
the deadline date for the transmittal of State Process Recommendations
by SPOCs and comments by other interested parties is on April 26, 1994.
For applications under section 2 or 3 of Impact Aid Maintenance and
Operations, the deadline date for the transmittal of comments by SEAs
is on March 14, 1994.
For programs in Group II that are subject to Executive Order 12372,
the deadline date for the transmittal of State Process Recommendations
for each program is listed with that program.
ADDRESSES: The address and telephone number for obtaining applications
for, or further information about, an individual program are in the
application notice for that program. The date and Federal Register
citation of the application notice are listed for each program.
Individuals who use a telecommunications device for the deaf (TDD)
may call the TDD number, if any, listed in the individual application
notices. If a TDD number is not listed for a given program, individuals
who use a TDD may call the Federal Information Relay Service (FIRS) at
1-800-877-8339 between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m., Eastern time, Monday through
Friday.
The address for transmitting recommendations and comments under
Executive Order 12372 is in the appendix to the notice inviting
applications for new awards under direct grant programs and fellowship
programs published in the Federal Register on September 24, 1993 (58 FR
50138).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The programs for which the Secretary
announces closing date extensions are in two groups:
Group I: These are programs whose originally announced application
deadline dates fell between January 18 and January 31, 1994.
New Deadlines: The new deadline for each of these competitions is
two weeks from the date of publication of this notice in the Federal
Register.
Eligibility: Because this extension is based on the adverse effects
of severe weather conditions or the adverse effects of the California
earthquake, the extended deadline dates apply to applications from all
applicants across the Nation.
Group II: These are programs whose originally announced application
deadline dates fell between February 1 and February 18, 1994.
New Deadlines: The new deadline for each of these competitions is
three weeks from the application deadline date originally or previously
announced in the Federal Register.
Eligibility: Because the extensions for programs in Group II are
based on the adverse effects of the California earthquake, the extended
deadline dates apply to applications from applicants located in the
State of California only.
Organization of Notice
Both Chart I and Chart II list programs in order of Code of Federal
Domestic Assistance (CFDA) number, regardless of which principal office
of the Department administers a particular program.
Chart I: In addition to the CFDA number, the list includes the name
of the program or competition, the date on which the application notice
was published in the Federal Register, and a reference to the volume
number and page number of the notice. In the case of Impact Aid
Maintenance and Operations, reference is to the regulations for the
program in Title 34 of the Code of Federal Regulations (34 CFR).
Because the new--that is, extended--application deadline date for all
of these programs is the same, a separate deadline is not listed for
each program.
Chart II: In addition to the CFDA number, the list includes the
name of the program or competition, the date on which the application
notice was published in the Federal Register, a reference to the volume
number and page number of the notice, and the new--that is, extended--
application deadline date.
