DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION
Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services; Special
Education--Training and Information for Parents of Children With
Disabilities--Parent Training and Information Centers
ACTION: Notice inviting applications for new awards for fiscal year
(FY) 2006; Correction.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: On November 8, 2005, we published in the Federal Register (70
FR 67675) a notice inviting applications for new awards for FY 2006 for
the Training and Information for Parents of Children with
Disabilities--Parent Training and Information Centers competition. The
notice contained incomplete funding information and did not include
Nebraska among the States for which the Department will accept
applications for a 5-year award to establish a parent training and
information center (PTI Center). To create a unified system of service
delivery, and provide the broadest coverage for the parents and
families in every State, the Department makes awards in five-year
cycles to each State. Nebraska should have been included in the list of
States for which the Department intends to fund one PTI Center to serve
the entire State in FY 2006.
On page 67675, third column, and page 67677, first column, the
following corrections are necessary: (1) Under Estimated Available
Funds, the estimated funding amount for the Parent Training and
Information Centers competition is corrected to read ``$5,417,915'';
(2) the Estimated Average Size of Awards is corrected to read
``$285,153''; and (3) the Estimated Number of Awards is corrected to
read ``19''.
In addition, on page 67677, second column, the second and fourth
paragraphs are corrected to include Nebraska in (1) the list of States
for which we will be accepting applications for 5-year awards, and (2)
the list of States for which one award may be made to a qualified
applicant for a PTI Center to serve the entire State. The chart on page
67677, third column, is also corrected to include Nebraska with a
maximum funding amount of $230,625.
