2. Incomplete applications as of the
deadline for submission will not be
considered. If an application is
determined to be incomplete, the
applicant will be notified in writing and
the application will be returned with no
further action.
3. Applications conforming with this
part will then be evaluated
competitively by a panel of Rural
Utilities Service employees selected by
the Administrator of Rural Utilities
Service, and will be awarded points as
described in the scoring criteria in 7
CFR 1739.17. Applications will be
ranked and grants awarded in rank
order until all grant funds are expended.
C. Selection Process
Grant applications are ranked by final
score. Rural Utilities Service selects
applications based on those rankings,
subject to the availability of funds.
VI. Award Administration Information
A. Award Notices
Rural Utilities Service recognizes that
each funded project is unique, and
therefore may attach conditions to
different projects’ award documents.
Rural Utilities Service generally notifies
applicants whose projects are selected
for awards by emailing a scanned copy
of an award letter. Rural Utilities
Service follows the award letter with a
grant agreement that contains all the
terms and conditions for the grant. An
applicant must execute and return the
grant agreement, accompanied by any
additional items required by the grant
agreement.
B. Administrative and National Policy
Requirements. The items listed in
paragraph IV.C.2.k of this notice, and
the Community Connect Grant Program
regulation, application guide and
accompanying materials implement the
appropriate administrative and national
policy requirements.
C. Reporting
1. Performance reporting. All
recipients of Community Connect Grant
Program financial assistance must
provide annual performance activity
reports to RUS until the project is
complete and the funds are expended. A
final performance report is also
required; the final report may serve as
the last annual report. The final report
must include an evaluation of the
success of the project. See 7 CFR
1739.19.
2. Financial reporting. All recipients
of Community Connect Grant Program
financial assistance must provide an
annual audit, beginning with the first
year a portion of the financial assistance
is expended. Audits are governed by
United States Department of Agriculture
audit regulations. See 7 CFR 1739.20.

Reporting. The applicant must have the
necessary processes and systems in
place to comply with the reporting
requirements for first-tier sub-awards
and executive compensation under the
Federal Funding Accountability and
Transparency Act of 2006 in the event
the applicant receives funding unless
such applicant is exempt from such
reporting requirements pursuant to 2

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
Background
On November 16, 2011, the Rowley
Company (Rowley) submitted a scope
request claiming that certain drapery
rail kits which it imports are outside the
scope of the Orders. The Department
issued its Final Scope Ruling on
Drapery Rail Kits on February 3, 2012;
in that ruling, the Department
determined that certain drapery rail kits
are within the scope of the Orders.
On August 10, 2012, Rowley filed its
brief with the Court. On October 19,
2012, the Department asked the Court to
grant it a voluntary remand that would
allow it to re-examine the determination
it reached in its Final Scope Ruling on
Drapery Rail Kits. On November 30,
2012, the Court granted the
Department’s request for a voluntary
remand. In the Remand Results, we
found that the drapery rail kits
described in the Scope Request
constituted ‘‘finished goods kits’’ as
described in the scope of the Orders,
and, thus, fall outside the scope. The
Department found that the drapery rail
kits are designed to incorporate readily
interchangeable drapes or curtains that
can change with users’ needs and are
intended to be customizable. On May
23, 2013, the CIT sustained the
Department’s Remand Results.3

Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Operations, ‘‘Final Scope
Ruling on Drapery Rail Kits’’ (February 3, 2012)
(Final Scope Ruling on Drapery Rail Kits).
