requests for continuation awards, 

including information provided in 

program narratives, budgets and budget 

narratives, and performance reports. 

Any activities to be carried out during 

the continuation year must be consistent 

with, or be a logical extension of, the 

scope, goals, and objectives of, each 

grantee’s application as approved in the 

2011 LINCS RPDC competition. 

Regulatory Flexibility Act Certification 

The Secretary certifies that the waiver 

and extension and the activities 

required to support an additional year of 

funding will not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities. 

The small entities that will be affected 

by this waiver and extension are the 

four currently-funded LINCS RPDC 

grantees and any potential applicants 

for LINCS RPDC grants in FY 2014. 

The Secretary further certifies that the 

waiver and extension will not have a 

significant economic impact on these 

LINCS RPDC entities because the waiver 

and extension impose minimal 

compliance costs to extend projects 

already in existence, and the activities 

required to support the additional year 

of funding will not impose additional 

regulatory burdens or require 

unnecessary Federal supervision. 

Furthermore, the costs of carrying out 

these activities could be paid for with 

program funds. 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

This notice of waiver and extension 

does not contain any information 

collection requirements. 

Intergovernmental Review 

The LINCS RPDC is subject to 

Executive Order 12372 and the 

regulations in 34 CFR part 79.
