competitions under the Comprehensive
Centers program until after the Congress
has completed the process of
reauthorizing the ESEA and the ETAA
since the primary work of the
Comprehensive Centers is to help
States, LEAs, and schools implement
key school improvement provisions of
the ESEA. We also have concluded that
it would be contrary to the public
interest to have a lapse in
Comprehensive Centers projects
pending these reauthorizations. For
these reasons, the Secretary proposes to
waive the requirements in 34 CFR
75.250, which prohibit project periods
exceeding five years, and the
requirements in 34 CFR 75.261(c)(2),
which limit the extension of a project
period if the extension involves the
obligation of additional Federal funds.
With these waivers: (1) Current
Comprehensive Centers grantees would
receive FY 2010 funds and continue to
operate through FY 2011 and possibly
beyond, if Congress continues to
appropriate funds for that purpose, and
(2) we would not announce a new
competition or make new awards under
the Comprehensive Centers program in
FY 2010.
The proposed waivers of 34 CFR
75.250 and 75.261(c)(2) would not affect
the applicability of the requirements in
34 CFR 75.253 (continuation of a multiyear project after the first budget period)
to any current Comprehensive Centers
grantee that receives a continuation
award as a result of the waivers.
In addition, these proposed waivers
would not exempt current
Comprehensive Centers grantees from
the account-closing provisions in 31
U.S.C. 1552(a), nor would they extend
the availability of funds previously
awarded to current Comprehensive
Centers grantees. Under 31 U.S.C.
1552(a), appropriated funds may be
used for payment of valid obligations for
only five years after the expiration of
their period of availability for Federal
obligation. After that time, the
unexpended balance of those funds is
canceled and returned to the U.S.
Treasury Department and is unavailable
for restoration for any purpose. The
waivers proposed in this notice would
not change this requirement.
Making these waivers, therefore,
would ensure that the important
services provided by the current
Comprehensive Centers grantees can be
continued, as the Department works on
reauthorization of the ETAA and ESEA
and designs a Comprehensive Centers
program that is clearly aligned with the
Department’s technical assistance
priorities. During this interim period the
activities of the current Comprehensive

Centers grantees would be modified to
support the Department’s technical
assistance priorities.
We will announce the final waivers,
if any, in a notice in the Federal
Register. We will determine the final
waivers after considering responses to
this notice and other information
available to the Department.
strengthened federalism. The Executive
Order relies on processes developed by
State and local governments for
coordination and review of proposed
Federal financial assistance.
This document provides early
notification of our specific plans and
actions for this program.
Proposed Waivers—Comprehensive
Centers Program
The Secretary proposes to waive the
requirements in 34 CFR 75.250 and
75.261(c)(2), which prohibit project
periods exceeding five years and
extensions of project periods that
involve the obligation of additional
Federal funds, for the current
Comprehensive Centers grantees.

Regulatory Flexibility Act Certification
The Secretary certifies that these
proposed waivers would not have a
significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities.
The small entities that would be
affected by these proposed waivers are:
(a) The FY 2005 grantees currently
receiving Federal funds; and
(b) The entities that are eligible for an
award under the Comprehensive
Centers program (i.e., research
organizations, institutions, agencies,
institutions of higher education,
partnerships among such entities, or
individuals, with the demonstrated
ability or capacity to carry out the
activities described in the notice
inviting applications published in the
Federal Register on June 3, 2005 (70 FR
53283) and corrected on June 20, 2005
(70 FR 35415)).
The Secretary certifies that the
proposed waivers would not have a
significant economic impact on these
entities because the proposed waivers
and the activities required to support
the additional years of funding would
not impose excessive regulatory burdens
or require unnecessary Federal
supervision. The proposed waivers
would impose minimal requirements to
ensure the proper expenditure of
program funds, including requirements
that are standard for continuation
awards.
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
This notice of proposed waivers does
not contain any information collection
requirements.

Order 12372 and the regulations in 34

potential applicants have the
opportunity to submit applications
under this competition. If you have
already successfully submitted an eapplication for this grant competition,
you do not need to resubmit your
application.
Deadline for Transmittal of
Applications: April 1, 2010.
