4. Performance Measures: Under the 

Government Performance and Results 

Act of 1993, the Department has 

established a set of performance 

measures, including long-term 

measures, that are designed to yield 

information on various aspects of the 

effectiveness and quality of the Training 

and Information for Parents of Children 

with Disabilities program. The measures 

focus on the extent to which projects 

provide high-quality materials, the 

relevance of project products and 

services to educational and early 

intervention policy and practice, and 

the usefulness of products and services 

to improve educational and early 

intervention policy and practice. 

Grantees will be required to provide 

information related to these measures in 

annual reports submitted to the 

Department. 

Grantees also will be required to 

report information on their projects’ 

performance in annual reports to the 

Department (34 CFR 75.590). 

5. Continuation Awards: In making a 

continuation award, the Secretary may 

consider, under 34 CFR 75.253, the 

extent to which a grantee has made 

‘‘substantial progress toward meeting 

the objectives in its approved 

application.’’ This consideration 

includes the review of a grantee’s 

progress in meeting the targets and 

projected outcomes in its approved 

application, and whether the grantee 

has expended funds in a manner that is 

consistent with its approved application 

and budget. In making a continuation 

award, the Secretary also considers 

whether the grantee is operating in 

compliance with the assurances in its 

approved application, including those 

applicable to Federal civil rights laws 

that prohibit discrimination in programs 

or activities receiving Federal financial 

assistance from the Department (34 CFR 

100.4, 104.5, 106.4, 108.8, and 110.23).

(42 U.S.C. 7151(b), 7172(f)) and require

On January 12, 2012, DOE received an

authority to transmit electric energy 

from the United States to Mexico for 

five years as a power marketer using 

existing international transmission 

facilities. Pilot Power does not own any 

electric transmission facilities nor does 

it hold a franchised service area. 

The electric energy that Pilot Power 

proposes to export to Mexico would be 

surplus energy purchased from electric 

utilities, Federal power marketing 

agencies, and other entities within the 

United States. The existing international 

transmission facilities to be utilized by 

Pilot Power have previously been 

authorized by Presidential permits 

issued pursuant to Executive Order

for open access transmission by third 

parties.

desiring to be heard in this proceeding 

should file a comment or protest to the 

application at the address provided 

above. Protests should be filed in

CFR 385.211). Any person desiring to 

become a party to these proceedings 

should file a motion to intervene at the 

above address in accordance with FERC 

Rule 214 (385.214). Five copies of such 

comments, protests, or motions to 

intervene should be sent to the address 

provided above on or before the date

Mexico should be clearly marked with 

OE Docket No. 383. An additional copy 

is to be filed directly with Thomas E. 

Darton, Pilot Power Group, Inc., 8910 

University Center Lane, Suite 520,

A final decision will be made on this 

application after the environmental 

impacts have been evaluated pursuant 

to DOE’s National Environmental Policy 

Act Implementing Procedures (10 CFR 

part 1021) and after a determination is 

made by DOE that the proposed action 

will not have an adverse impact on the 

reliability of the U.S. electric power 

supply system. 

Copies of this application will be 

made available, upon request, for public 

inspection and copying at the address 

provided above, by accessing the 

program Web site at http://energy.gov/
