supplementary information: On April 21, 1994, the Department published
a Notice of Funding Availability for Lead-Based Paint Hazard Control in
Priority Housing (FR-3643) in the Federal Register at 59 FR 19880
(``NOFA''). The NOFA announced the availability of $142 million for
grants to States and local governments. The NOFA also stated that to be
considered for funding, an original and two copies of the application
must be physically received in the Office of Lead-Based Paint Abatement
and Poisoning Prevention in Washington no later than 3:00 p.m. Eastern
Time on July 6, 1994.
For the three days immediately prior to the date that applications
were due under the NOFA, July 4 through July 6, East Central Illinois,
specifically Southeastern Cook County, Will County and Kankakee County,
were subjected to severe weather conditions, which disrupted electrical
service to many of the communities in this part of Illinois.
Accordingly, due to a weather emergency and a prolonged regional
power outage, the Department is extending the deadline of 3:00 pm
Eastern Time on July 6, 1994 for submission of applications under the
NOFA for Southeastern Cook County, Will County and Kankakee County,
Illinois. The Department will accept applications received from this
region by 3:00 pm Eastern Time on July 7, 1994 if (1) the applicant
submits a certification demonstrating that the applicant's ability to
prepare or submit the application was substantially impaired by the
above-described power outage; and (2) the Department approves the
certification.
Dated: August 3, 1994.
Henry G. Cisneros,
Secretary.
