SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

On February 5, 2020, we published in the Federal Register a notice inviting applications for the NASNTI Program (85 FR 6537). This notice revises the deadline for transmittal of applications and the deadline for intergovernmental review to extend both those deadlines. All other corrections and conditions in the notice remain the same.

We are extending this competition to allow applicants more time to prepare and submit their applications after requests from multiple applicants. Therefore, we are extending the competition to allow applicants to submit or resubmit applications that meet all of the requirements in the NIA. Applicants that have already submitted applications are encouraged to review their applications and determine whether they have met all eligibility and application requirements.

As stated above, applicants may resubmit applications that may not have met all of the requirements in the NIA. Applicants that have already submitted timely applications that meet all of the requirements of the NIA do not have to resubmit their applications. If a new application is not submitted, the Department will use the application that has already been submitted.
