Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company; Notice of Application, 40576-40577 [E9-19268]

Download as PDF 40576 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 154 / Wednesday, August 12, 2009 / Notices Elsewhere in this issue of the Federal Register, the Department has amended the definition of the term consortium in the regulations for the AIVRS program (34 CFR 371.4(b)). The purpose of this regulatory change is to ensure that any consortium of Indian tribes could establish a separate legal entity to apply for a grant under this program. Prior to this regulatory change, the Department’s definition of the term consortium under the AIVRS program required Indian tribes that choose to form a consortium to designate one of the Indian tribes of the consortium to serve as the grantee; it did not also permit the Indian tribes in the consortium to create a separate legal entity that would serve as the grantee on behalf of the consortium and be responsible for using the grant funds to provide services to all the Indian tribes in the consortium. To ensure that the change in the regulatory definition of the term consortium under the AIVRS program applies to entities applying for a FY 2009 grant, we are reopening the competition and establishing a new deadline for the submission of applications. Only groups of Indian tribes that seek to apply for funding under the AIVRS program as a consortium using a separate legal entity as the applicant are permitted to submit an application under this reopened competition. Applicants that submitted applications by the July 23, 2009, deadline date in accordance with the terms of the May 14, 2009, notice inviting applications are not required to submit new applications. If an applicant that has already submitted an application for this competition now chooses to join a consortium and have a separate legal entity apply on behalf of the consortium, the applicant must notify the Department and reapply using the separate legal entity as the applicant by the deadline date in this notice. The new deadline date is: Deadline for Transmittal of Applications: September 11, 2009. For information (other than the deadline for submission) about how to submit your application, please refer to section IV. 6. Other Submission Requirements in the May 14, 2009 Federal Register notice (74 FR 22729).
