SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June 26, 2018 we published in the Federal 
Register an NIA for this program (83 FR 29769) that listed a number of 
selection criteria, including assigned point values, and requirements 
for this competition. Additionally, we posted an application package 
for the program on

[[Page 39736]]

the Department's website at www2.ed.gov/programs/indiandemo/applicant.html and Grants.gov. Since that time, we have discovered that 
some parts of the selection criteria in the application package did not 
match the selection criteria in the NIA, and that some of the 
application package instructions relating to ``Part 6, Other 
Attachments'' did not match requirements and criteria in the NIA. 
Although we noted in the application package that the NIA was the 
official document governing this competition, we are publishing this 
supplemental notice to clarify that the selection criteria and 
requirements in the NIA are the official selection criteria and 
requirements for this competition. Please refer to the NIA for the 
selection criteria, including assigned point values, and requirements 
that apply to this competition. In addition to having been published in 
the Federal Register, the NIA is attached at the end of the application 
package under ``Legal and Regulatory Information.'' We also have 
updated the application package on the Department's website and 
grants.gov to correct the items described above. Please refer to those 
two websites for an updated application package.
    Applicants that have already submitted timely applications may 
resubmit their applications but are not required to do so.
    Applicants must submit their applications in Grants.gov by 4:30:00 
p.m., Washington, DC time on August 10, 2018. Instructions for 
submitting an application can be found in the NIA.

    Note: All information in the NIA remains the same.

    Program Authority: 20 U.S.C. 7441.
