out of high school (20 U.S.C. 1416 (a)(3)(A)). 

There are no substantive differences 

between the proposed waiver and 

extension and this final waiver and 

extension. 

Public Comment 

In response to our invitation in the 

notice of proposed waiver and extension 

of the project period, we did not receive 

any substantive comments. Generally, 

we do not address comments that raise 

concerns not directly related to the 

proposed waiver and extension of 

project period. 

Background 

On June 23, 2008, the Department 

published a notice in the Federal 

Register (73 FR 35376) inviting 

applications for new awards for fiscal 

year (FY) 2008 for a National Dropout 

Prevention Center for Students with 

Disabilities. The Center was funded 

under the Technical Assistance and 

Dissemination to Improve Services and 

Results for Children with Disabilities 

(TA&D) program, authorized under 

section 663 of the Individuals with 

Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). Its 

purpose is to provide States and local 

educational agencies (LEAs) with 

technical assistance (TA) on (1) 

Implementing and evaluating effective 

comprehensive dropout prevention, 

reentry, and school completion models 

and practices for students with 

disabilities; (2) developing and 

improving data collection systems to 

track students at risk of dropping out; 

and (3) designing training for 

policymakers, administrators, and 

practitioners that will help them 

support efforts to improve dropout 

prevention, reentry, and school 

completion for students with 

disabilities. 

Based on the selection criteria 

published in the 2008 notice inviting 

applications, the Department made one 

award for a period of 60 months to 

Clemson University to establish the 

Center, which is currently known as the 

National Dropout Prevention Center for 

Students with Disabilities. The Center 

has the following four interrelated goals 

that reflect its overarching purpose: 

• Goal 1: Increase the awareness of 

policymakers, administrators, and 

practitioners about dropout prevention, 

reentry, and school completion. 

• Goal 2: Increase the number of 

States that set and meet reasonable and 

rigorous performance targets for State 

Performance Plan Indicators 1 1 and 2.2

• Goal 3: Help State educational 

agencies (SEAs) and LEAs develop and 

improve data systems to track students 

at risk of dropping out. 

• Goal 4: Help SEAs and LEAs 

implement and evaluate effective 

comprehensive school-completion 

models, practices, and systems for 

students with disabilities. 

The Center works to accomplish these 

goals through a combination of the 

following: (1) Knowledge development 

activities to synthesize what is currently 

known about dropout prevention for 

students with disabilities and to 

develop a series of high-quality 

products that can be used by States in 

designing and developing effective 

dropout prevention programs; (2) TA to 

SEAs, LEAs, and organizations to 

increase their capacity to design and 

implement effective dropout prevention, 

reentry, and school completion models 

and practices; (3) collaboration with a 

variety of organizations that provide 

direct program services and TA to 

education agencies that provide 

educational programs and services to 

students with disabilities in order to 

prepare and disseminate information 

and materials that will increase the 

awareness and use of research-validated 

practices by a variety of audiences; and 

(4) dissemination of knowledge and 

information about effective dropout 

prevention programs, policies, and 

resources to SEAs and LEAs. 

The Center’s current project period is 

scheduled to end on September 30, 

2013. We do not believe that it would 

be in the public interest to run a 

competition for a new Center this year 

because the Department is planning to 

change the organization of its TA 

activities to better meet the needs of 

States and LEAs for TA relating to 

transition to college and the workforce, 

including dropout prevention, for 

students with disabilities. We also have 

concluded that it would be contrary to 

the public interest to have a lapse in the 

provision of TA services currently 

provided by the Center pending the 

changes to the organization of the 

Department’s TA activities. For these 

reasons, the Secretary waives the 

requirements in 34 CFR 75.250, which 

prohibit project periods exceeding five 

years, and waives the requirements in 

34 CFR 75.261(a) and (c)(2), which limit 

the extension of a project period if the 

extension involves the obligation of 

additional Federal funds. The waiver 

allows the Department to issue a 

continuation award in the amount of 

$665,000 to Clemson University 

(H326W080003) for an additional 12- 

month period, which should ensure that 

the Center’s TA, training, and 

dissemination of information to 

families, SEAs, LEAs, and other State 

agencies will not be interrupted. 

Any activities to be carried out during 

the year of the continuation award must 

be consistent with, or be a logical 

extension of, the scope, goals, and 

objectives of the grantee’s application as 

approved in the 2008 National Dropout 

Prevention Center for Students with 

Disabilities competition. 

The requirements applicable to 

continuation awards for this 

competition, set forth in the June 23, 

2008, notice inviting applications, and 

the requirements in 34 CFR 75.253 

apply to any continuation awards 

sought by the current National Dropout 

Prevention Center for Students with 

Disabilities grantee. We base our 

decisions regarding a continuation 

award on the program narrative, budget, 

budget narrative, and program 

performance report submitted by the 

current grantee, and the requirements in 

34 CFR 75.253. 

Waiver of Delayed Effective Date 

The Administrative Procedure Act 

requires that a substantive rule must be 

published at least 30 days before its 

effective date, except as otherwise 

provided for good cause (5 U.S.C. 

553(d)(3)). We received no substantive 

comments on the proposed waiver and 

extension of project period, and we have 

not made any substantive changes to the 

proposed waiver and extension of 

project period. The Secretary has made 

a determination to waive the delayed 

effective date to ensure provision of TA 

services currently provided by the 

Center pending the changes to the 

organization of the Department’s TA 

activities. 

Regulatory Flexibility Act Certification 

The Secretary certifies that this 

waiver and extension of the project 

period would not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities. 

The only entity that would be affected 

by this waiver and extension of the 

project period is the current grantee. 

The Secretary certifies that this 

waiver and final extension would not 

have a significant economic impact on 

this entity because the extension of an 

existing project imposes minimal 

compliance costs, and the activities

V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews 

I. Summary of Today’s Final Action 

EPA is approving several related 

actions. First, under Clean Air Act (CAA 

or ‘‘Act’’) section 110(k)(3), EPA is 

approving a maintenance plan for the 

1997 8-hour ozone standard (‘‘San Diego 

8-hour maintenance plan’’) for the San 

Diego County 1997 ozone 

nonattainment area (‘‘San Diego 8-hour 

area’’) as a revision to the California 

state implementation plan (SIP).1 The 

San Diego 8-hour maintenance plan is 

included in a document titled 

Redesignation Request and 

Maintenance Plan for the 1997 National 

Ozone Standard for San Diego County 

(December 2012) submitted by the 

California Air Resources Board (CARB) 

on December 28, 2012. 

In connection with the San Diego 8- 

hour maintenance plan, EPA finds that 

the maintenance demonstration 

showing how the area will continue to 

attain the 1997 8-hour ozone national 

ambient air quality standard (1997 

ozone NAAQS or 1997 ozone standard) 

for at least 10 years beyond 

redesignation (i.e., through 2025) and 

the contingency provisions describing 

the actions that the San Diego County 

Air Pollution Control District 

(SDCAPCD) will take in the event of a 

future monitored violation meet all 

applicable requirements for 

maintenance plans and related 

contingency provisions in CAA section 

175A. EPA is also approving the motor 

vehicle emissions budgets (MVEBs) in 

the San Diego 8-hour maintenance plan 

because we find that they meet the 

applicable transportation conformity 

requirements under 40 CFR 93.118(e). 

Second, under CAA section 

107(d)(3)(D), EPA is approving CARB’s 

request that accompanied the submittal 

of the San Diego 8-hour maintenance 

plan, that is, to redesignate the San 

Diego 8-hour area to attainment for the 

1997 ozone standard. We are doing so 

based on our conclusion that the area 

has met the five criteria for 

redesignation under CAA section 

107(d)(3)(E). Our conclusion in this
