Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 32 / Thursday, February 16, 2012 / Notices consistent with, or be a logical extension of, the scope, goals, and objectives of each grantee’s application, as approved following the 2007 TCPCTIP competition. If we publish the proposed waivers and extension as final, we would award continuation grants based on information provided to us by each grantee, indicating that it is making substantial progress performing its TCPCTIP grant activities. The proposed extension of the project period and waivers of 34 CFR 75.250 and 75.261(c)(2) would not exempt the current TCPCTIP grantees from the appropriation account-closing provisions of 31 U.S.C. 1552(a), nor would they extend the availability of funds previously awarded to current TCPCTIP grantees. As a result of 31 U.S.C. 1552(a), appropriations available for a limited period 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 (31 U.S.C. 1552(b)). Regulatory Flexibility Act Certification The Secretary certifies that the proposed waivers and extension 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 and extension are the two grantees selected based on the May 15, 2007, notice currently receiving Federal funds. The Secretary certifies that the proposed waivers and extension would not have a significant economic impact on these entities because the proposed waivers and extension impose minimal compliance costs to extend projects already in existence, and the activities required to support the additional year or years of funding would not impose additional regulatory burdens or require unnecessary Federal supervision. srobinson on DSK4SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 This notice of proposed waivers and extension does not contain any information collection requirements.
