AGENCY: Office of English Language Acquisition, Department of 
Education.

ACTION: Notice; extension of deadline date.

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

SUMMARY: On May 4, 2016, we published in the Federal Register (81 FR 
26780) a notice inviting applications for new awards for fiscal year 
(FY) 2016 for the Data Disaggregation Initiative Program. The notice 
established July 5, 2016, as the deadline date for eligible applicants 
to apply for funding under the program. This notice extends the 
deadline for transmittal of applications to August 1, 2016. All other 
requirements and conditions stated in the notice inviting applications, 
including the deadline for intergovernmental review, remain the same.

DATES: Deadline for Transmittal of Applications: August 1, 2016. 
Deadline for Intergovernmental Review: September 1, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:  On May 4, 2016, we published in the Federal 
Register (81 FR 26780) a notice inviting applications for new awards 
(NIA) for FY 2016 for the Data Disaggregation Initiative Program. The 
NIA established July 5, 2016, as the deadline date for eligible 
applicants to apply for funding under the program. However, as the NIA 
requires SEAs to submit an application in consortia with one or more 
LEAs, we believe it is critical that the SEAs be given additional time 
to engage in discussions with LEAs and take the necessary steps to 
secure the partnership documentation before the summer break begins. At 
the same time, we intend to make awards by the end of the current 
fiscal year. Therefore, we are extending the deadline for transmittal 
of applications to August 1, 2016. In order to make awards by the end 
of FY 2016, under 34 CFR 79.8(a), we are not extending the deadline for 
intergovernmental review, which remains September 1, 2016. All other 
requirements and conditions stated in the NIA remain the same.
