In addition, after publication of the Federal Register notice, an agency decision was made to extend the due date for those applications due, as published, on 09-01-01 until 10-01-01.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The Office of Population Affairs published a notice in the Federal Register of June 8, 2001 announcing the anticipated availability of funds for family planning services grnats. Table I of this notice requires two changes. Inadvertently, the State of South Carolina was not included in the list of Populations/areas to be served. In addition, an agency decision was made to extend the due date for those applications due, as published, on 09-01-01 until 10-01-01. As a result of the addition of South Carolina as an eligible area, the total amount of funds available is increased to approximately $16.5 million. This requires that the anticipated total amount of funds announced be changed to reflect the actual total. In addition, the telephone number of Christy Crosser, one of the persons to contact for further information on Program Requirements in PHS Region VIII, was incorrect. This document corrects these four items.
