Publication of Final Program Plan for Fiscal Year 2002

AGENCY: Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, Office 
of Justice Programs, Justice.

ACTION: Notice regarding publication of the Office of Juvenile Justice 
and Delinquency Prevention's Final Program Plan for fiscal year (FY) 
2002.

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

SUMMARY: The Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention 
(OJJDP) is publishing this notice to inform the public that it will 
postpone publication of its FY 2002 Final Program Plan to accommodate 
any written comments sent through the U.S. mail which may not yet have 
reached OJJDP due to precautions taken in response to the anthrax 
attacks.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: OJJDP at 202-307-5911. [This is not a 
toll-free number.]

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OJJDP's Proposed Program Plan for fiscal 
year 2002 was published in the Federal Register on October 23, 2001 (66 
FR 53692-710). The October 23 Notice requested that comments on the 
Proposed Plan be received by December 7, 2001.
    During that time period, however, mail delivery to OJJDP was 
severely disrupted as a result of the extraordinary circumstances 
arising from the September 11 terrorist acts and subsequent anthrax 
attacks involving the U.S. mail.
    OJJDP expects to receive its backlogged mail within the next few 
weeks. Consequently, in order to properly review, consider, and respond 
to any comments submitted by the public on its Proposed Plan, OJJDP 
will delay publication of the FY 2002 Final Program Plan. OJJDP will 
make every effort to respond to comments in a timely manner and to 
publish its Final Program Plan in the Federal Register in early 2002.

    Dated: December 18, 2001.
Terrence S. Donahue,
Acting Administrator, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency 
Prevention.
