Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services; Office 
of Special Education Programs; Notice Inviting Applications for New 
Awards for Fiscal Year (FY) 1999

AGENCY: Department of Education.

ACTION: Correction Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On January 4, 1999, 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 Amendments of 1997 was published in the 
Federal Register (64 FR 351). The notice contained a ``chart'' that 
provided closing dates and other information regarding the transmittal 
of applications for the Fiscal Year 1999 competitions. The chart 
inadvertently listed ``1998'' dates. This notice corrects the chart (64 
FR 361) with the correct ``1999'' dates.
