ratio of equal to or more than 70 percent may not be selected for 
further processing and obligation after June 13, 2005. These

prior to June 13, 2005, and that meet program criteria, but score less 
than 25 points or score 25 points or more but have a development cost 
ratio of equal to or more than 70 percent may be selected for 
obligation after June 13, 2005, with the highest scoring responses 
receiving priority as long as funds remain available. These corrections 
are also intended to ensure that the Agency will continue to select the

notwithstanding the score, as long as the response meets program 
criteria and funds remain available.

scoring proposals, in light of the remaining funding, until all funds 
are expended.''
    On page 12569, in the second column, under the heading DATES, the 
fifth sentence, ``Priority for the selection of proposals that meet the 
threshold score of 25 will be given to the highest scoring proposals,'' 
is removed.
    On page 12574, in the first column, first paragraph, under the 
heading ``Scoring of Priority Criteria for Selection of Projects,'' the

13, 2005, the Agency will select the highest scoring proposals, in 
light of the remaining funding, until all funds are expended.''
    On page 12574, in the first column, first paragraph, under the

is removed.
