Department of Education February 5, 2010 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

On January 20, 2010, we published in the Federal Register (75 FR 3212) a notice inviting applications for FY 2010 for the Cooperative Civic Education and Economic Education Exchange Program. The notice stated that a list of eligible countries was included in the application package (75 FR 3214). The list of eligible countries included in the application package at the time the notice inviting applications for FY 2010 was published was the list that was used in the FY 2009 program grant competition. However, an updated list of eligible countries has since been approved for FY 2010. The new list of eligible countries for FY 2010 is included in an updated application package that has been posted to the following Department of Education Web sites: https://e-Grants.ed.gov and https://www.ed.gov/programs/ coopedexchange/applicant.html. Therefore, in order to give applicants adequate time to access the updated application package, we are changing the deadline for the submission of applications to March 15, 2010. With this change in the deadline date, we are also changing the deadline date for intergovernmental review. The specific changes to be made are as follows:
