SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Deadline Date Extension

    In the March 27 i3 Scale-up NIA the Department announced the 2012 
i3 Scale-up grant competition and indicated that the Deadline for 
Transmittal of Applications was May 29, 2012. Applicants under this 
competition are required to use Grants.gov. Since publishing the March 
27 i3 Scale-up NIA, it has come to the Department's attention that the 
Grants.gov help desk will be closed in observance of Memorial Day on 
Monday, May 28--the day before the original Deadline for the 
Transmittal of Applications that was announced in the March 27 i3 
Scale-up NIA. The Department extends the deadline date for this 
competition to May 30, 2012 so that applicants will have sufficient 
access to the Grants.gov help desk to address any technical issues 
related to the application submission that may arise the day before the 
deadline date. As a result of the change in the deadline date, we are 
also extending the Date for Intergovernmental Review by one day--to 
July 26, 2012.

Correction

    An error appears in the Electronic Submission of Applications 
section of the March 27 i3 Scale-up NIA. In seven places within that 
section, the notice indicates that applications must be fully uploaded 
and submitted and must be date and time stamped by the Grants.gov 
system no later than 4:30 p.m., Washington, DC time, on the application 
deadline date. These references to ``4:30 p.m.'' should be references 
to ``4:30:00 p.m.'' For this reason, we correct the March 27 i3 Scale-
up NIA as follows:
    On page 18225, second column, second bulleted paragraph, correct 
the three references to ``4:30 p.m.'' to read ``4:30:00 p.m.''.
    On page 18225, third column, last paragraph, correct the reference 
to ``4:30 p.m.'' to read ``4:30:00 p.m.''.
    On page 18226, first column, first full paragraph, correct the two 
references to ``4:30 p.m.'' to read ``4:30:00 p.m.''.
    On page 18226, second column, last paragraph, correct the reference 
to ``4:30 p.m.'' to read ``4:30:00 p.m.''.
