Additions 

On 8/31/2012 (77 FR 53179–53180)

determined that the products and

not have a significant impact on a 

substantial number of small entities. 

The major factors considered for this

additional reporting, recordkeeping or 

other compliance requirements for small 

entities other than the small 

organizations that will furnish the 

products and services to the 

Government. 

2. The action will result in 

authorizing small entities to furnish the 

products and services to the 

Government. 

3. There are no known regulatory 

alternatives which would accomplish 

the objectives of the Javits-WagnerO’Day Act (41 U.S.C. 8501–8506) in

TRICARE Over-the-Counter Drug 

Demonstration Project 

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, DoD. 

ACTION: Notice of an extension to the 

TRICARE Over-the-Counter Drug

interested parties of a 2-year extension 

of the demonstration project in which 

the Department of Defense (DoD) 

evaluates allowing selected over-thecounter (OTC) drugs to be included on 

the TRICARE uniform formulary. The 

Department will continue to evaluate

when the selected OTC drugs are 

determined to be clinically effective. 

DATES: This demonstration project will 

continue through November 4, 2014.

Colonel George Jones, TRICARE 

Management Activity, Pharmaceutical 

Operations Directorate, telephone (703)

the project. The demonstration project 

continues to be authorized by 10 U.S.C.

DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION 

Race to the Top—District 

AGENCY: Office of the Deputy Secretary, 

Department of Education. 

ACTION: Notice reopening the Race to the 

Top—District competition. 

Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance 

(CFDA) Number: 84.416. 

SUMMARY: The Secretary reopens the 

Race to the Top—District competition to 

extend the deadline for submitting 

applications. Hurricane Sandy 

prevented many applicants from 

submitting their applications by the 

October 30, 2012, deadline. The 

hurricane also closed Federal 

Government offices in Washington, DC, 

on October 29 and 30, 2012. The 

Department, therefore, could not receive 

applications on those days. 

For local educational agencies located 

in States affected by Hurricane Sandy 

and for which the President has issued 

a major disaster declaration or an 

emergency declaration, the new 

deadline is 4:30 p.m. Washington, DC 

time on Wednesday, November 7, 2012. 

For local educational agencies 

everywhere else, the new deadline is 

4:30 p.m. Washington, DC time on 

Friday, November 2, 2012. 

DATES: Deadline for Transmittal of 

Applications: 

For local educational agencies located 

in States affected by Hurricane Sandy 

and for which the President has issued 

either a major disaster declaration or an 

emergency declaration: November 7, 

2012. For local educational agencies 

located everywhere else: November 2, 

2012.

Education, 400 Maryland Avenue SW., 

room 7e208, Washington, DC 20202–

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August 

16, 2012, we published in the Federal 

Register (77 FR 49654) a notice inviting 

applications for the Race to the Top— 

District competition. That notice 

established an October 30, 2012, 

deadline for submitting applications. 

We are extending that deadline because 

Hurricane Sandy prevented many 

applicants from submitting their 

applications by that deadline. The 

hurricane also closed Federal 

Government offices in Washington, DC, 

on October 29 and 30, 2012. The 

Department, therefore, could not receive 

applications on those days. For local 

educational agencies located in States 

affected by Hurricane Sandy and for 

which the President has issued a major 

disaster declaration or an emergency 

declaration, the new deadline is 4:30 

p.m. Washington, DC time on 

Wednesday, November 7, 2012. For 

local educational agencies located 

everywhere else, the new deadline is
