[Docket No. 99121533-3181-08]


National Technical Assistance, Training, Research, and 
Evaluation: University Research Parks, Technology-Led Economic 
Development Strategies, and Information Dissemination--Request for 
Proposals

AGENCY: Economic Development Administration (EDA), Department of 
Commerce (DOC).

ACTION: Request for grant proposals (RFP) upon availability of funds.

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

SUMMARY: EDA publishes this notice to reopen the application submission 
period for ten days to allow applicants to submit proposals addressing 
Section VI.B.I. entitled ``Information Dissemination to Practitioners 
Serving Distressed Areas.'' EDA reopens the proposal period because the 
proposals that addressed ``Information Dissemination to Practitioners 
Serving Distressed Areas,'' did not adequately meet the established 
criteria for EDA to select a proposal for funding consideration.

DATES: Prospective applicants are advised that proposals for funding 
will be accepted through August 8, 2003, at any of the addresses 
provided in the May 23, 2003, RFP. Proposals received after 4 p.m. 
e.d.t., on August 8, 2003, will not be considered for funding.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: John J. McNamee, 202.482.4085; e-mail: 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On May 23, 2003, EDA published a Notice in 
the Federal Register at 68 FR 28672, requesting proposals for several 
RFPs. Section VI.B.I. of that Notice requested proposals for 
``Information Dissemination to Practitioners Serving Distressed 
Areas.'' Proposals received in response to Section VI.B.I. did not 
adequately meet the established criteria for EDA to select a proposal 
for funding consideration. Consequently, EDA hereby reopens for ten 
days the proposal submission period for the information dissemination 
proposals only. New proposals, as well as revisions of proposals 
submitted earlier, will be accepted. All other requirements of the May 
23, 2003, notice remain in effect.

    Dated: July 23, 2003.
David A. Sampson,
Assistant Secretary for Economic Development.
