SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
On July 28, 2021, we published in the Federal Register (86 FR
40510) the NIA for EIR Early-phase Grants. Under the NIA, applications
were due on August 27, 2021. We are reopening this competition for five
days for affected applicants to allow those applicants more time to
prepare and submit their applications.
Eligibility:
The reopening of this competition applies to eligible applicants
under the Early-phase Grants competition that are affected applicants.
An eligible applicant for the Early-phase Grant competition is defined
in the NIA. The federally declared disaster areas under this
declaration are the jurisdictions identified by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency under declaration 4609-DR-TN in which assistance to
individuals or public assistance has been authorized. To determine if
you are an affected applicant, see the Emergency Declaration available
at: <a href="http://www.fema.gov/disaster/4609">www.fema.gov/disaster/4609</a> and <a href="https://www.fema.gov/disaster/4609/designated-areas">https://www.fema.gov/disaster/4609/designated-areas</a>.
An affected applicant submitting an application as part of the
reopened competition must provide a certification in its application
that it is located in a jurisdiction that is part of one of the
applicable federally declared disaster areas and must provide
appropriate supporting documentation, if requested.
We are not reopening the application period for all applicants.
Thus, applications from applicants that are not affected applicants may
not be submitted as part of this reopened period for submission of
applications.
Note: All information in the NIA remains the same, except for
the deadline date for affected applicants and the deadline for
intergovernmental review.
Program Authority: 20 U.S.C. 7261.
