project, we will consider the extent to
which the applicant has identified
specific gaps and weaknesses in the
preparation of all students for
postsecondary education and careers
without need for remediation, the
nature and magnitude of those gaps and
weaknesses, and the extent to which the
proposed project will address those gaps
and weaknesses effectively.
Final Priorities, Requirements,
Definition, and Selection Criteria
We will announce the final priorities,
requirements, definition, and selection
criteria in a notice in the Federal
Register. We will determine the final
priorities, requirements, definitions, and
selection criteria after considering
responses to this notice and other
information available to the Department.
This notice does not preclude us from
proposing additional priorities,
requirements, definitions, and selection
criteria, subject to meeting applicable
rulemaking requirements.

Note: This notice does not solicit
applications. In any year in which we choose
to use one or more of these priorities,
requirements, definition, and selection
criteria, we invite applications through a
notice in the Federal Register.
Executive Order 12866: This notice
has been reviewed in accordance with
Executive Order 12866. Under the terms
of the order, we have assessed the
potential costs and benefits of this
regulatory action.
The potential costs associated with
this proposed regulatory action are
those resulting from statutory
requirements and those we have
determined as necessary for
administering this program effectively
and efficiently.
In assessing the potential costs and
benefits—both quantitative and
qualitative—of this proposed regulatory
action, we have determined that the
benefits of the proposed priorities,
requirements, definition, and selection
criteria justify the costs.
We have determined, also, that this
regulatory action does not unduly
interfere with State, local, and tribal
governments in the exercise of their
governmental functions.
Discussion of Costs and Benefits:
Elsewhere in this notice we discuss the
potential costs and benefits, both
quantitative and qualitative, of the
proposed priorities, requirements,
definition, and selection criteria under
the background sections to the
Priorities, Requirements, Definition, and
Selection Criteria.

Certain sections of the proposed
priorities, requirements, definition, and
selection criteria for the SLC grant
program contain changes to information
collection requirements already
approved by the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) under OMB control
number 1810–0676 (1890–0001). We
will be publishing a separate notice in
the Federal Register requesting
comments on these changes.
Intergovernmental Review: This
program is subject to Executive Order
12372 and the regulations in 34 CFR
part 79. One of the objectives of the
Executive order is to foster an
intergovernmental partnership and a
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.
