SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 25, 2016, we published in the 
Federal Register (81 FR 24070) a notice inviting applications for new 
awards for FY 2016 for the i3 Development competition. The deadline for 
transmittal of full applications was August 16, 2016. We are reopening 
this competition in order to allow certain eligible applicants affected 
by the severe storms and flooding in Louisiana (described in more 
detail below) more time to prepare and submit their applications.
    Eligibility: Applicants are eligible to submit applications under 
this reopened competition if they are located in a Federally declared 
disaster area, as determined by the Federal Emergency Management Agency 
(FEMA) (see www.fema.gov/news/disasters.fema), and adversely affected 
by the severe storms and flooding beginning on August 11, 2016, and 
continuing, in Louisiana.
    Under section 14007(a)(1) of the American Recovery and Reinvestment 
Act of 2009 (ARRA) (Pub. L. 111-5), an eligible applicant for the 
Investing in Innovation Fund is (a) a local educational agency (LEA) or 
(b) a partnership between a nonprofit organization and (1) one or more 
LEAs or (2) a consortium of schools. An eligible applicant that is a 
partnership may apply under this reopened competition if any of the 
entities required to be part of the partnership (i.e., a nonprofit 
organization, an LEA, or a consortium of schools) are located in a 
Federally declared disaster area, as determined by FEMA, and adversely 
affected by the severe storms and flooding in Louisiana.
    An eligible applicant must provide a certification in its 
application that it meets the criteria for submitting an application as 
part of the reopened competition and be prepared to provide appropriate 
supporting documentation, if requested. If such an eligible applicant 
is submitting its application electronically, the submission of the 
application serves as the eligible applicant's attestation that it 
meets the criteria for submitting an application as part of this 
reopened competition.
    We are not reopening the application period for any other 
applicants. Thus, applications from applicants not affected by the 
severe storms and flooding that were not timely submitted may not be 
submitted as part of this reopened competition.

    Note:  All information in the NIA for this competition remains 
the same, except for the deadline date for certain eligible 
applicants and the deadline for intergovernmental review.
