variation; and c) to evaluate the

and the Program Assessment Rating 

Tool (PART). OSEP revisions have: (a) 

Modified items that collect information 

on scholars’ knowledge and skills to 

reduce grantee work burden and to 

diminish response ambiguity, to 

simplify data entry and analysis, and to 

delete two items that were no longer 

needed; (b) added one item to determine 

whether the grantee expects the scholar 

to complete the program; (c) added two 

items to first section to determine if 

scholar received funding under a 

previous grant and the number of credit 

hours earned prior to starting the 

current grant program and that will be 

accepted for program completion; and 

(d) enhanced instructions for a few 

items to make the form more userfriendly and diminish response 

ambiguity.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On May 

11, 2010, the DOE released two RFIs in 

the Federal Register regarding the 

implementation of the National 

Broadband Policy. (75 FR 26203, 75 FR 

26206). The first RFI requested 

information from electric utilities, 

consumer groups, and other interested 

parties regarding the protection of and 

access to consumer energy usage data as 

federal, state, and private entities seek 

to develop Smart Grid technologies. The 

second RFI requested information on 

the evolving needs of electric utilities as 

Smart Grid technologies are more 

broadly deployed. These RFIs, intended 

to solicit opinions from a diversity of 

stakeholders, provided for the 

submission of comments by July 12, 

2010, and the submission of reply 

comments by July 26, 2010. To date, 

DOE has received more than 80 

comments from electric utilities, private 

corporations, and consumer groups. 

Given the high volume of comment 

submission and the apparent public 

interest, the DOE has determined that an 

extension of the public reply comment 

period is appropriate and is hereby 

extending the reply comment period. 

DOE will consider any comments 

received by August 9, 2010 and deems 

any comments received between July 

12, 2010 and July 22, 2010 to be timely 

submitted. 

Issued in Washington, DC, on July 16,
