SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

pathogenesis of inflammatory reactions

may depend upon the traffic of

inflammatory mediating cells from sites

of induction to sites of inflammation.

This trafficking is known to be

mediated, in part, by the interaction of

the integrin, α4β7, and the addressin,

mucosa adressin cell adhesion

molecule-1. This homing, which

governs the entry of cells into tissues, is

accompanied by additional adhesion

molecule-ligand interactions that ensure

the retention of cells in the target tissue.

The inventors believe the integrin,

αEβ7, may play a role in retaining

intraepithelial lymphocytes in the

intraepithelial site via its interaction

with E-cadherin. Experiments have

shown in IL–2-/- mice, that

administration of anti-αEβ7 can prevent

colonic inflammation and reverse preexisting inflammation. This data is

important because it strongly suggests

that both entry and retention of cells are

necessary for the induction and

maintenance of colitis in these IL–2-/-

mice. The present technology relates to

methods for treating inflammatory

reactions for but not necessarily limited

to: autoimmune diseases, graft-versushost disease and transplantation

rejections.

The prospective exclusive license:

will be royalty-bearing and will comply

with the terms and conditions of 35

U.S.C. § 209 and 37 CFR 404.7. The

prospective exclusive license may be

granted unless within sixty (60) days

from the date of this published notice,

the NIH receives written evidence and

argument that establish that the grant of

the license would not be consistent with

the requirements of 35 U.S.C. § 209 and

37 CFR 404.7.

Applications for a license in the field

of use filed in response to this notice

will be treated as objections to the grant

of the contemplated exclusive license.

Comments and objections submitted to

this notice will not be made available

for public inspection and, to the extent

permitted by law, will not be released

under the Freedom of Information Act,

5 U.S.C. § 552.

Empowerment Programs and Section 8

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On

February 24, 2000 (65 FR 9322), HUD

published its Fiscal Year (FY) 2000

Super Notice of Funding Availability

(SuperNOFA) for HUD’s Housing,

Community Development, and

Empowerment Programs and Section 8

Housing Voucher Assistance. The FY

2000 SuperNOFA announced the

availability of approximately $2.424

billion in HUD program funds covering

39 grant categories within programs

operated and administered by HUD

offices and Section 8 housing voucher

assistance. The FY 2000 SuperNOFA

included HUD’s funding availability

announcement for the Economic

Development Initiative (EDI). The EDI

section of the SuperNOFA announced

the availability of approximately $24.1

million in EDI funds to stimulate

economic development by local

governments and private sector parties.

This document extends the

application due date to apply for

funding for regional economic

development projects under the

Economic Development Initiative (EDI)

to July 14, 2000. This application due

date extension is only for regional

economic development project

applications. It has been brought to

HUD’s attention that the amount of time

necessary to collect and compile the

information necessary for a regional

economic development project

application is more time consuming

than that required for general economic

development project applications.

Accordingly, HUD is providing

additional time to prepare and submit

regional economic development project

applications. (Please note that the EDI

application due was extended

previously to June 13, 2000, for all

applications by notice published in the

Federal Register on May 9, 2000 (65 FR

26844).)

Please note that applicants that

already submitted applications for

regional economic development projects

by the June 13, 2000, application due

date, need not resubmit a new

application and need not amend their

applications. Applicants that already

submitted applications for regional

economic development projects,

however, may submit new or amended

applications if they choose to do so.

Applicants that already submitted

applications and plan to submit new or

amended applications should clearly

identify whether the information

submitted is new and replaces a

previously submitted application in its

entirety or is an addendum or

amendment to the previously submitted

application.

The funding availability

announcement for EDI is found at page

9787 of the February 24, 2000

SuperNOFA. The original

announcement contains all the

information with respect to EDI

application contents and where to

submit EDI applications. This notice

only provides the extended due date for

regional economic development project

applications.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION

I. Background

On March 17, 2000 (65 FR 14694),

HUD published the NOFA for ALCP for

Section 202 Projects which announced

the availability of $50,000,000 for the

physical conversion of Section 202

projects or portions of Section 202

projects to Assisted Living Facilities.

The purpose of this document is to

correct certain technical errors that

appeared in the published NOFA.

Technical Errors To Be Corrected

The page numbers referred to in this

notice refer to Federal Register page

numbers.

On page 14694, second column, under

the fourth full paragraph, which

addresses Application Kits, HUD failed

to include the toll free TTY number and

to indicate that application kits for the

ALCP NOFA and the Service

Coordinators NOFA are available on the

Internet. The TTY number and a

statement that both application kits are

available on the Internet are included by

this document.

On page 14696, second column, under

the sixth full paragraph, which

identifies contact persons for technical

assistance, HUD is correcting the name

of the office of the contact persons and

replacing the name of one of the contact

persons.

On page 14696, second column, the

paragraph designated ‘‘(14)’’ is revised

by adding a new sentence to the end of

the first full paragraph of paragraph (14)

to clarify that a Section 202/PRAC

project is not eligible to request funding

under the NOFA for Service

Coordinators for Multifamily Housing,

published also on March 17, 2000 (65

FR 14708), because the Section 202/

PRAC project may pay for the service

coordinator out of PRAC funds.

On page 14699, third column, the first

full paragraph under ‘‘Rating Factor 1,’’

contains an incorrect cross reference to

other sections of the NOFA and this

reference is corrected by this document.

On page 14699, third column, the last

paragraph in that column which

continues on page 14700, contains an

incorrect cross reference to other

sections of the NOFA and this reference

is corrected by this document.

On page 14700, first column, the first

full paragraph under Rating Factor 3,

contains an incorrect cross-reference to

other sections of the NOFA, and the

reference is corrected by this document.

On page 14700, second column, the

second full paragraph under Rating

Factor 4 contains an incorrect crossreference to other sections of the NOFA

and the reference is corrected by this

document.

On page 14700, third column at the

top, the paragraph designated ‘‘(3)’’

under Rating Factor 4 contains an

incorrect point assignment where the
