Technical and Supervisory Assistance Grants

AGENCY: Farmers Home Administration, USDA.

ACTION: Notice of extension of grant preapplication filing deadline.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Farmers Home Administration (FmHA) announces an extension 
of the closing date for filing Technical and Supervisory Assistance 
(TSA) Grant preapplications, from March 17, 1994 (as first announced in 
the notice published at 59 FR 7240 on February 15, 1994) to March 28, 
1994. This extension of time is granted due to the brief initial 31-day 
preapplication period. This action is taken to comply with Agency 
regulations found in 7 CFR part 1944, subpart K which require the 
Agency to announce the opening and closing dates for receipt of 
preapplications for TSA grants from eligible applicants. The intended 
effect of this Notice is to provide public and private nonprofit 
corporations, agencies, institutions, organizations, Indian tribes, and 
other associations notice of these dates. This TSA grant program will 
be available to provide funds to eligible applicants to conduct 
programs of technical and supervisory assistance for low-income rural 
residents to obtain and/or maintain occupancy of adequate housing.

DATES: The extended closing date for acceptance by FmHA of 
preapplications is March 28, 1994. This period will be the only time 
during the current fiscal year that FmHA accepts preapplications. 
Preapplications must be received by or postmarked on or before March 
28, 1994.

ADDRESSES: Submit preapplications to FmHA field offices; applicants 
must contact their FmHA State Office for this information.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Walter B. Patton, Senior Loan Officer, 
Single Family Housing Processing Division, USDA, FmHA, Room 5334, South 
Agriculture Building, Washington, D.C. 20250, telephone (202) 720-0099 
(This is not a toll free number).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FmHA extends the closing date for 
acceptance of preapplications for the Technical and Supervisory 
Assistance Grant program published at 59 FR 7240 on February 15, 1994, 
until March 28, 1994. This extension of time is granted due to the 
brief initial 31-day preapplication period. FmHA will be selecting 
grantees based on the preapplications submitted, requesting final 
application, and then obligating funds. Entities wishing to apply for 
assistance should contact the FmHA State Office to receive further 
information and copies of the application package.
