Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 58 / Monday, March 29, 2021 / Notices
discretionary grant competition, the
Secretary may consider, under 34 CFR
75.217(d)(3), the past performance of the
applicant in carrying out a previous
award, such as the applicant’s use of
funds, achievement of project
objectives, and compliance with grant
conditions. The Secretary may also
consider whether the applicant failed to
submit a timely performance report or
submitted a report of unacceptable
quality.
In addition, in making a competitive
grant award, the Secretary requires
various assurances, including those
applicable to Federal civil rights laws
that prohibit discrimination in programs
or activities receiving Federal financial
assistance from the Department (34 CFR
100.4, 104.5, 106.4, 108.8, and 110.23).
For this competition, the Department
has waived the peer review process for
this program. Department staff will
review eligible applications using the
absolute priority criteria provided in
this notice.
2. Risk Assessment and Specific
Conditions: Consistent with 2 CFR
200.206, before awarding grants under
this competition the Department
conducts a review of the risks posed by
applicants. Under 2 CFR 200.208, the
Secretary may impose specific
conditions and, under 2 CFR 3474.10, in
appropriate circumstances, high-risk
conditions on a grant if the applicant or
grantee is not financially stable; has a
history of unsatisfactory performance;
has a financial or other management
system that does not meet the standards
in 2 CFR part 200, subpart D; has not
fulfilled the conditions of a prior grant;
or is otherwise not responsible.
4. Integrity and Performance System:
If you are selected under this
competition to receive an award that
over the course of the project period
may exceed the simplified acquisition
threshold (currently $250,000), under 2
CFR 200.206(a)(2) we must make a
judgment about your integrity, business
ethics, and record of performance under
Federal awards—that is, the risk posed
by you as an applicant—before we make
an award. In doing so, we must consider
any information about you that is in the
integrity and performance system
(currently referred to as the Federal
Awardee Performance and Integrity
Information System (FAPIIS)),
accessible through the System for
Award Management. You may review
and comment on any information about
yourself that a Federal agency
previously entered and that is currently
in FAPIIS.
Please note that, if the total value of
your currently active grants, cooperative
agreements, and procurement contracts
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 253001
from the Federal Government exceeds
$10,000,000, the reporting requirements
in 2 CFR part 200, Appendix XII,
require you to report certain integrity
information to FAPIIS semiannually.
Please review the requirements in 2 CFR
part 200, Appendix XII, if this grant
plus all the other Federal funds you
receive exceed $10,000,000.
VI. Award Administration Information
1. Award Notices: If your application
is successful, the individuals listed as
the Authorizing Representative and
Director will receive a Grant Award
Notification (GAN); or we may send you
an email containing a link to access an
electronic version of your GAN.
If your application is not evaluated or
not selected for funding, we will notify
you.
2. Administrative and National Policy
Requirements: We identify
administrative and national policy
requirements in the application package
and reference these and other
requirements in the Applicable
Regulations section of this notice.
We reference the regulations outlining
the terms and conditions of an award in
the Applicable Regulations section of
this notice and include these and other
specific conditions in the GAN. The
GAN also incorporates your approved
application as part of your binding
commitments under the grant.
3. Reporting: Reporting requirements
are specified in each program’s
Certification and Agreement or
Supplemental Agreement.
(b) At the end of your project period,
you must submit a final performance
report, including financial information,
as directed by the Secretary. If you
receive a multiyear award, you must
submit an annual performance report
that provides the most current
performance and financial expenditure
information as directed by the Secretary
under 34 CFR 75.118. The Secretary
may also require more frequent
performance reports under 34 CFR
75.720(c).

manufacturing capacity and the

vehicle batteries, and policy
recommendations to address these risks.
Written Comments
The Department is particularly
interested in information directed to the
policy objectives listed in E.O. 14017 as
they affect the supply chain for highcapacity batteries, including electric
vehicle batteries, including but not
limited to the following elements:
(i) Critical materials including battery
grade nickel, cobalt and lithium,
underlying the supply chain for highcapacity batteries, including electric
vehicle batteries;
(ii) Manufacturing and other
capabilities necessary to produce highcapacity batteries, including extraction
of raw materials, refining, production of
advanced cathode and anode powders,
separators, electrolytes, current
collectors and advanced recycling
technologies for high-capacity batteries;
(iii) The availability of the key skill
sets and personnel necessary to sustain
a competitive U.S. high-capacity
batteries ecosystem, including the
domestic education and manufacturing
workforce skills needed for highcapacity battery manufacturing; the
skills gaps therein, and any
opportunities to meet future workforce
needs;
(iv) Risks or contingencies that may
disrupt the high-capacity batteries
supply chain (including defense,
intelligence, cyber, homeland security,
health, climate, environmental, natural,
market, economic, geopolitical, humanrights or forced labor risks):
(a) Risks resulting from lack of or
failure to develop domestic
manufacturing capabilities, including
emerging capabilities;
(v) The resilience and capacity of the
high-capacity battery supply chain to
support national and economic security
and emergency preparedness, including:
(a) Manufacturing, recycling, or other
needed capacities (including ability to
modernize to meet future needs);
(b) Gaps in manufacturing
capabilities, including nonexistent,
