deadline date for eligible applicants to apply for funding under this 
program.
    The Department of Education announces the reopening of the 
competition for new awards under National Institute on Disability and 
Rehabilitation Research (NIDRR)--Disability and Rehabilitation Research 
Projects and Centers Program--Advanced Rehabilitation Research Training 
(ARRT) Projects for Fiscal Year (FY) 2010.
    We are establishing a new deadline date for the transmittal of 
applications. We are taking this action because the recent closure of 
the U.S. Federal government on February 5, 8, and 9, 2010 due to 
blizzard conditions in the Mid-Atlantic Region may have interfered with 
applicants' ability to access needed technical assistance through the 
e-Grants Help Desk. The reopening is intended to ensure that all 
potential applicants have the opportunity to submit applications under 
this competition. If you have already successfully submitted an e-
application for this grant competition, you do not need to resubmit 
your application.
    Deadline for Transmittal of Applications: April 1, 2010.

    Note:  Applications for grants under this program must be 
submitted electronically using e-Application, accessible through the 
Department of Education's e-grants Web site at: http://e-grants.ed.gov.

    For information about how to submit your application 
electronically, please refer to Electronic Submission of Application in 
the December 11, 2010 notice (74 FR 65765-65769). We encourage 
applicants to submit their applications as soon as possible to avoid 
any problems with filing electronic applications on the last day.
