    A notice announcing the availability of Fiscal Year 1998 funds for 
grants to support State and Local Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention

[[Page 12815]]

    On page 5549, first column, under ``Availability of Funds'', under 
heading ``Awards for State Applicants'' the first paragraph should 
read: ``To determine the suggested level of funding for which an 
individual State is eligible, State applicants should refer to the 
accompanying table entitled ``State CLPPs Only: Funding Categories 
Based on Projected Level of Effort Required to Provide Prevention 
Services to a State Population.''
    The second paragraph should read: ``Awards for eligible counties 
and cities, territories, tribes, and the District of Columbia should 
range from $250,000--$450,000, with an average award of $350,000. This 
is a suggested funding range.''
    On page 5549, column two; under ``Additional Information on 
Funding'', the first sentence of the first paragraph should read ``For 
State applicants for Part A: CLPP funding only: Determine your 
suggested category (Category 1, 2, or 3) according to the table on the 
next page''.
    On page 5549, column three, last paragraph should be deleted and 
replaced with: ``Applicants are encouraged to use the funding category 
that is suggested for the applicant's State; however, note that these 
are suggested funding guidelines and should not be regarded as absolute 
funding limits.''
    All other information and requirements of the notice remain the 
same.
