ACTION: Notice of intent to fund down the fiscal year (FY) 2009 grant slate for the Minority Science and Engineering Improvement Program. SUMMARY: The Secretary intends to use the grant slate developed in FY 2009 for the Minority Science and Engineering Improvement Program (MSEIP), authorized by Title III, Part E of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended (HEA), to fund down the FY 2009 grant slate to make new grant awards in FY 2010. The Secretary takes this action because a significant number of high-quality applications remain on last year’s grant slate. We expect to use an estimated $4,069,676 for new awards in FY 2010. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Karen W. Johnson, U.S. Department of Education, 1990 K Street, NW., 6th PO 00000 Frm 00027 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Floor, Washington, DC 20006–6450.

Individuals with disabilities can obtain this document in an accessible format (e.g., braille, large print, audiotape, or computer diskette) on request to the contact person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On April 1, 2009, we published a notice in the Federal Register (74 FR 14790) inviting applications for new awards under MSEIP. In response to this notice, we received a significant number of applications for grants under MSEIP in FY 2009 and funded 16 new grants. Because such a large number of high-quality applications were received, many applications that were awarded high scores by peer reviewers did not receive funding in FY 2009. In order to conserve funding that would have been required for a peer review of new applications submitted under this program, we intend to select grantees in FY 2010 from the existing slate of applicants. This slate was developed during the FY 2009 competition using the competitive preference priorities, invitational priorities, selection criteria, and requirements referenced in the April 1, 2009 notice.
