[Docket No. 99121533-3181-08]



 

National Technical Assistance, Training, Research, and 

Evaluation: University Research Parks, Technology-Led Economic 

Development Strategies, and Information Dissemination--Request for 

Proposals



AGENCY: Economic Development Administration (EDA), Department of 

Commerce (DOC).



ACTION: Request for grant proposals (RFP) upon availability of funds.



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



SUMMARY: EDA publishes this notice to reopen the application submission 

period for ten days to allow applicants to submit proposals addressing 

Section VI.B.I. entitled ``Information Dissemination to Practitioners 

Serving Distressed Areas.'' EDA reopens the proposal period because the 

proposals that addressed ``Information Dissemination to Practitioners 

Serving Distressed Areas,'' did not adequately meet the established 

criteria for EDA to select a proposal for funding consideration.



DATES: Prospective applicants are advised that proposals for funding 

will be accepted through August 8, 2003, at any of the addresses 

provided in the May 23, 2003, RFP. Proposals received after 4 p.m. 

e.d.t., on August 8, 2003, will not be considered for funding.



FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: John J. McNamee, 202.482.4085; e-mail: 

jmcnamee@eda.doc.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On May 23, 2003, EDA published a Notice in 

the Federal Register at 68 FR 28672, requesting proposals for several 

RFPs. Section VI.B.I. of that Notice requested proposals for 

``Information Dissemination to Practitioners Serving Distressed 

Areas.'' Proposals received in response to Section VI.B.I. did not 

adequately meet the established criteria for EDA to select a proposal 

for funding consideration. Consequently, EDA hereby reopens for ten 

days the proposal submission period for the information dissemination 

proposals only. New proposals, as well as revisions of proposals 

submitted earlier, will be accepted. All other requirements of the May 

23, 2003, notice remain in effect.



    Dated: July 23, 2003.

David A. Sampson,

Assistant Secretary for Economic Development.
