AGENCY:

Department of Education.

ACTION:

Notice inviting applications for new awards for fiscal year (FY) 2000; correction.

SUMMARY:

On April 28, 2000, a notice inviting applications for new awards under the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services; Grant Applications under Part D, Subpart 2 of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act was published in the Federal Register (65 FR 25156). The notice included an “Estimated Project Awards” section in the Parent Training and Information Centers priority that listed project award amounts for State awards, including Virgin Islands and American Samoa, and interim State awards (65 FR 25167). Information stating that other awards may also be made to authorized entities in Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and the freely associated States, was inadvertently omitted from this section. In addition, the notice contained a “chart” that provided closing dates and other information regarding the transmittal of applications for the Fiscal Year 2000 competitions. This notice will correct the “Estimated Project Awards” section and the “chart” (65 FR 25170) by including the following information, “Awards may also be made under the Parent Training and Information Centers competition (CFDA 84.328M) to authorized entities in Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and the freely associated States. However, maximum funding levels have not been specified.”

Note to applicants:

Potential applicants should consult the statement of the final priority published on April 28, 2000 (65 FR 25156) to ascertain the substantive requirements for their applications.

Correction

Awards may also be made under the Parent Training and Information Centers competition (CFDA 84.328M) to authorized entities in Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and the freely associated States. However, maximum funding levels have not been specified.

2. In the Federal Register of April 28, 2000 (65 FR 25170) correct footnote 1 of the chart to read as follows:
