VIII. Effective Date
17. These regulations are effective on
May 1, 2010. In accordance with 5
U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Commission finds
that good cause exists to make this Final
Rule effective less than 30 days after its
publication in the Federal Register. The
rule concerns a matter of administrative
procedures and does not affect the rights
of persons appearing before the
Commission. Therefore, there is no
reason to make it effective at a later
time.
18. The provisions of 5 U.S.C. 801
regarding Congressional review of Final
Rules do not apply to this Final Rule,
because the rule concerns agency
procedure and practice and will not
substantially affect the rights of nonagency parties.
19. The Commission is issuing this as
a Final Rule without a period for public
comment. Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b), notice
and comment procedures are
unnecessary where a rulemaking
concerns only agency procedure and
practice, or where the agency finds that
notice and comment is unnecessary.
This rule concerns only matters of
agency procedure and will not
significantly affect regulated entities or
the general public.

ACTION: Interim final rule; reopening
comment period.
SUMMARY: On March 4, 2010, the
Department of Education published in
the Federal Register an interim final
rule and requested comments on that
rule for the Magnet Schools Assistance
Program (MSAP). The rule became
effective March 4, 2010, and the
comment period for the interim final
rule ended on April 5, 2010. During the
comment period, the Department
received requests asking that the
Department extend the comment period
for the interim final rule. This document
announces the reopening of the
comment period.
DATES: The Department reopens the
public comment period for the interim
final rule that was published in the
Federal Register on March 4, 2010
(75 FR 9777). Comments must be
received on or before May 17, 2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Department reopens the public
comment period for the interim final
rule that was published in the Federal
Register on March 4, 2010 (75 FR 9777)
because we have determined that a
longer comment period would provide
local educational agencies submitting
grant applications under the MSAP for
fiscal year (FY) 2010 funding and other
interested parties an opportunity to
submit comments on the interim rule
after the May 3, 2010 application
deadline date announced for the FY
2010 grant competition in the notice
inviting applications published on
March 4, 2010 (75 FR 9879).
The Department believes this
approach will improve the quality of

ACTION:
SUMMARY: On February 11, 2010, LSC
issued an Interim Final Rule and
Request for Comments repealing its
regulatory prohibition on the claiming
of, and the collection and retention of
attorneys’ fees pursuant to Federal and
State law permitting or requiring the
awarding of such fees. The action was
taken in accordance with the
elimination on the statutory prohibition
on attorneys’ fees in LSC’s FY 2010
appropriation legislation. The rule
moved provisions on accounting for and
use of attorneys’ fees and acceptance of
reimbursements from clients from part
1642 (which was eliminated) to part
1609 of LSC’s regulations. LSC also
made technical changes to its
regulations to remove cross references to
the obsolete statutory and regulatory
citations. With this document, LSC is
responding to the comments received
and confirming the February 11 rule as
final without change.
DATES: This final rule is effective April
26, 2010.
