SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

In the Final Rule (85 FR 59916), amendatory instruction 10 stated that 34 CFR 76.784 was being added to subpart I of part 76 of the Department's regulations. However, that section is being added to subpart G of part 76, so we are issuing this correction to revise the instruction accordingly. In addition, we are correcting the document by removing one sentence which was inadvertently included in the preamble, regarding the Regulatory Identification Number.
