DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION
Direct Grant Programs
AGENCY: Department of Education.
ACTION: Notice reopening application deadline dates for certain direct
grant and fellowship programs.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Secretary reopens the deadline dates for the submission of
applications by certain applicants (see ELIGIBILITY) under certain
direct grant programs. All of the affected competitions are among those
under which the Secretary is making new awards for fiscal year (FY)
2000. The Secretary takes this action to allow more time for the
preparation and submission of applications by potential applicants
adversely affected by severe weather conditions resulting from
Hurricane Floyd. The reopenings are intended to help these potential
applicants compete fairly with other applicants under these programs.
Note: Twelve of the affected programs or competitions are under
the Rehabilitation Services Administration, Office of Special
Education and Rehabilitative Services. You can find information
related to each of these under Group I. Three of the programs or
competitions are under the National Institute on Disability and
Rehabilitation Research, Office of Special Education and
Rehabilitative Services. You can find information related to each of
these under Group II.
