ACTION: Notice of Intent; Withdrawal.
AGENCY:
The U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers (USACE), Little Rock District,
is issuing this notice to advise Federal,
state, local governmental agencies and
the public that the USACE is
withdrawing its Notice of Intent (NOI)
to prepare a Draft Environmental Impact
Statement (EIS) for the Feasibility Study
to Investigate Hydrologic and Hydraulic
Problems Threatening Navigation,

Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 97 / Monday, May 22, 2017 / Notices
to the National Environmental Policy
Act (NEPA) for the Three Rivers
Feasibility Study, Arkansas and Desha
Counties, Arkansas. An agency scoping
meeting and Planning Charette were
held on August 11th and September 9–
11, 2015, respectively, to gather input
on the scope of the analysis, identify
possible alternatives and significant
issues to be evaluated in the Draft EIS,
as well as, the identification of
cooperating agencies. A public news
release announcing an open comment
period was released September 22, 2015
to solicit public comments from
interested parties relating to navigation
and ecosystem restoration opportunities
within the study area. Since that time,
in the course of project planning and
preliminary impact analysis, it no
longer appears that impacts associated
with project implementation would rise
to a level necessitating an EIS. In
compliance with the NEPA, the Little
Rock District will be preparing an
Environmental Assessment to address
the impacts of the proposed action and
alternatives. Therefore, the Little Rock
District is withdrawing the NOI to
prepare a Draft EIS.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Full Text of Announcement
I. Funding Opportunity Description
Purpose of Program: The purposes of
this program are to: (1) Help address
State-identified needs for personnel
preparation in special education, early
intervention, related services, and
regular education to work with children,
including infants and toddlers, with
disabilities; and (2) ensure that those
personnel have the necessary skills and
knowledge, derived from practices that
have been determined through
scientifically based research and
experience, to be successful in serving
those children.
Priority: In accordance with 34 CFR
75.105(b)(2)(v), this priority is from
allowable activities specified in the
statute (see sections 662 and 681 of the
Individuals with Disabilities Education
Act (IDEA)).
Absolute Priority: For FY 2017 and
any subsequent year in which we make
awards from the list of unfunded
applications from this competition, this
priority is an absolute priority. Under 34
CFR 75.105(c)(3), we consider only
applications that meet this priority.
This priority is:
National Center for Improving
Teacher and Leader Performance to
Better Serve Children with Disabilities.
Background:
Meeting the diverse needs of students
with disabilities in inclusive classrooms
and other school settings requires a
complex combination of knowledge and
skills, including the use of practices
supported by evidence. Organizations
such as the Council of Chief State
School Officers and the Council for
Exceptional Children, therefore, have
developed model standards of essential
knowledge and skills that they believe
teachers need in order to customize
learning and be effective in improving
student achievement, including the
achievement of students with
disabilities. In 2015, the National Policy
Board for Educational Administration
adopted a new set of professional
standards for leaders, known as the
Professional Standards for Education
Leaders. These standards describe the
PO 00000
Frm 00038
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

knowledge and skills education leaders
need to ensure every student is prepared
for the 21st century. The curricula in
teacher and leader preparation programs
must be better aligned with State
standards that reflect current knowledge
and skills and the use of practices
supported by evidence.
Further, under the Higher Education
Act of 1965, as amended (HEA), States
must annually report on the quality of
teacher preparation programs, identify
low-performing programs, and provide
them with technical assistance (TA).
States will need high-quality TA for
these activities.
Finally, under the Elementary and
Secondary Education Act of 1965
(ESEA), as amended by the Every
Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), States
must ensure that low-income and
minority students are not served at
disproportionate rates by ineffective,
out-of-field, or inexperienced teachers.
In addition, teacher and school leader
incentive programs are authorized
under Title II of the ESSA, and the Title
II set-aside allows a variety of activities,
including reforming teacher and leader
certification, teacher evaluation,
alternative certification, recruitment and
retention, professional development
(PD), and the TA provided to local
educational agencies (LEAs). State
educational agencies (SEAs) and
institutions of higher education (IHEs)
need high-quality TA to carry out these
reform efforts.
This competition will fund a national
center to assist SEAs, IHEs, and LEAs,
in addressing all of these needs to help
ensure that teachers and leaders have
the necessary knowledge and skills to
successfully meet the diverse needs of
students with disabilities.
Priority:
The purpose of this priority is to fund
a cooperative agreement to establish and
operate a national center for improving
teacher and leader performance to better
serve children with disabilities to
achieve, at a minimum, the following
outcomes:
(a) Improved capacity of States to
review and strengthen certification or
licensure standards and requirements,
in collaboration with IHEs and LEAs
that operate teacher and leader
preparation programs, in order to ensure
that these standards: (1) Are derived
from frameworks and practices
supported by evidence; and (2) reflect
the knowledge and skills necessary for
teachers and leaders to successfully
serve students with disabilities in
inclusive classrooms and school
settings, including, at a minimum,
competencies in evidence-based
