SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Corrections
In the Federal Register of December
22, 2015 (80 FR 79574), on page 79576,
in the third column, section II. Award
Information, under ‘‘Estimated
Available Funds,’’ we correct the
estimated amount to $150,000,000. In
addition, we correct the ‘‘Maximum
Award,’’ which is located a couple
paragraphs below the ‘‘Estimated
Available Funds,’’ to read:
Maximum Award:
• For an applicant that is not
currently receiving a Talent Search
Program grant, the maximum award
amount is $240,000 for a project that
will serve a minimum of 500
participants, based upon a perparticipant cost of no more than $480.
• For an applicant that is currently
receiving a Talent Search Program grant,
the maximum award amount is the
greater of (a) $240,000 or (b) the award
amount obtained by multiplying the
applicant’s approved FY 2015 number
of participants by $480, to serve at least
the number of participants approved to
serve in FY 2015. The minimum
number of participants an applicant
proposes to serve must be 500 and the
project must propose a per-participant
cost that does not exceed $480 per
participant. For example, an applicant
whose FY 2015 approved number of
participants is 600 is eligible for a grant
of up to $288,000 to serve 600
participants.
We will reject any application that
proposes a budget exceeding the
maximum amount listed above for a
single budget period of 12 months. We
will also reject any application that
proposes a budget to serve fewer than
500 participants, and will reject any
application that proposes a budget that
exceeds the maximum per participant
cost of $480.
All other information in the December
22, 2015, notice remains unchanged.
