the program. Reviewers will assess your 

plans to monitor student progress and 

program activities, particularly in regard 

to intended outcomes indicated in your 

proposal. Successful applicants will be 

expected to submit quarterly reports, 

which should be included as an 

inherent component of the work plan. 

Proposals should also specify ways in 

which students will be encouraged and 

monitored to ensure they complete the 

mandatory end-of-the-year surveys 

administered through the E-GOALS 

system. 

7. Cost-effectiveness/cost sharing: 

Reviewers will analyze the budget for 

clarity and cost-effectiveness. They will 

also assess the rationale of the proposed 

budget and whether the allocation of 

funds is appropriate to complete tasks 

outlined in the project narrative. The 

overhead and administrative 

components of the proposal, including 

salaries and honoraria, should be kept 

as low as possible. All other items 

should be necessary and appropriate. 

Proposals should maximize cost-sharing 

through other private sector support as 

well as institutional direct funding 

contributions. Preference will be given 

to organizations whose proposals 

demonstrate a quality, cost-effective 

program.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

Federal Aviation Administration 

Notice of Submission Deadline for 

International Slots for the Summer 

2007 Scheduling Season 

AGENCY: Department of Transportation, 

FAA. 

ACTION: Notice of submission deadline 

SUMMARY: The FAA announces in this 

notice that the deadline for submitting 

requests for international Arrival 

Authorizations at Chicago O’Hare 

International Airport (ORD) for 

allocation under 14 CFR 93.29 is 

October 12, 2006. This date coincides 

with the deadline established by the 

International Air Transport Association 

(IATA) for the Schedule Coordination 

Conference for the Summer 2007 

season. The FAA will allocate ORD 

international Arrival Authorizations for 

the period covering the U.S. Summer 

Scheduling Season in accordance with 

recent changes to the start and end dates 

of daylight saving time in the United 

States. The applicable period is March 

11 through November 3, 2007. The FAA 

recognizes that these dates differ from 

the March 25 through October 27, 2007 

period used by IATA for the Summer 

2007 schedule. Therefore, for those 

carriers who previously submitted 

schedules to the FAA through March 24, 

2007, as part of the Winter 2006 


jlentini on PROD1PC65 with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 183 / Thursday, September 21, 2006 / Notices 55265 

submission, resubmission is not 

necessary unless schedule information 

has changed because the FAA has acted 

on those submissions. Carriers also may 

choose to file initial summer schedules 

through October 27, 2007, the end of the 

IATA Northern Summer Scheduling 

Season, and submit the period October 

28 through November 3, 2007, as part of 

winter schedules. 

Previously, the FAA designated 

Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport 

(O’Hare) as a Level 2, Schedules 

Facilitated Airport under the IATA 

Guidelines. The FAA has changed the 

designation for O’Hare to Level 3 based 

on runway movement parameters under 

an August 29, 2006, final rule (71 FR 

51382). Carriers are advised that this 

notice does not alter or change any 

coordination procedures conducted 

separately for O’Hare’s Terminal 5 

facilities. The IATA designation for 

those flights remains Level 2 and 

information on those submission 

requirements is available from IATA. 

Finally, the FAA notes that the High 

Density Rule slot limitations for John F. 

Kennedy International Airport (JFK) 

will not apply after January 1, 2007, in 

accordance with 49 U.S.C. § 41715(a)(2). 

Consequently, the FAA determination 

for JFK under IATA guidelines has 

changed to Level 1. Carriers do not need 

to submit JFK schedules for slot 

approval. 

DATES: Requests for international slots 

must be submitted no later than October 

12, 2006. 

ADDRESSES: Requests may be submitted 

by mail to Slot Administration Office,
