A notice announcing the availability of fiscal year (FY) 2001 funds for a cooperative agreement program for expansion of prevention, care and HIV/AIDS surveillance with the Ministry of Public Health in the Kingdom of Thailand, was published in the Federal Register on July 16, 2001, [Vol. 66, No. 136, Pages 37036-37038]. The notice is corrected as follows:

On page 37038, First Column, Under Section C.
