Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 65 / Thursday, April 4, 2013 / Notices issues change over time but may be affected by lifestyle and directed interventions). We would welcome well-designed research and development projects with either (or another) focus. Change: None. Comments: One commenter suggested that community living and participation as a domain does not sufficiently reflect the importance of social relationships. Discussion: We are committed to people with disabilities being both in the community and part of the community. We welcome applications that design and evaluate interventions that go beyond physical integration to achieving social inclusion and interpersonal relationships. Change: None. 14. Centers of Excellence Comments: Two commenters asked for clarification of the expectations about the concept of ‘‘Centers of Excellence.’’ Discussion: ‘‘Centers of National Excellence’’ is a term that was added to the description of RRTCs by Congress in the last reauthorization of NIDRR. RRTCs, as Centers of Excellence, are expected to serve as ‘‘national resource centers’’ for the topics and populations they address. We agree with the commenter that introduction of the new term ‘‘Centers of Excellence’’ to describe RRTCs is unnecessarily confusing. Change: In the RRTC criteria, we will continue to require that RRTCs serve as ‘‘national resource centers’’ and continue to expect excellence from them, but we will eliminate the designation of ‘‘Centers of Excellence.’’ 15. Types of Programs Within the NIDRR Portfolio Comments: Two commenters indicated that the information about the types of programs that are administered by NIDRR is not clear. Discussion: NIDRR’s programs are designated in its authorizing legislation located in sections 200 through 205 of the Rehabilitation Act, as amended. We manage these programs in a manner consistent with the authorizing statute, regulations established in 34 CFR parts 350 through 359, and annual appropriations bills. Change: None.
