ACTION:

SUMMARY:
On June 10, 1998 (63 FR 31814), the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) issued a notice of availability of the 1998 Circular A-133
Compliance Supplement. The notice also offered interested parties
an opportunity to comment on the 1998 Circular A-133 Compliance
Supplement. OMB received comments from 10 different respondents.
These comments were very technical in nature and did not result
in any substantive changes to the Supplement. The 1999 Supplement
has been updated to add 35 additional programs, updated for program
changes, makes technical corrections, and makes changes reflected
in the public comment letters. A list of changes to the 1999 Supplement
can be found at Appendix 5 of the supplement. Due to its length,
the 1999 Supplement is not included in this Notice. See Addresses
for information about how to obtain a copy. OMB intends to annually
review, revise and/or update this supplement.
This
notice also offers interested parties an opportunity to comment
on the 1999 Supplement.

after June 30, 1998, and supersedes the 1998 Supplement. All comments
