SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August 12, 1996 (61 FR 41936), HUD published in the Federal Register a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for Technical Assistance for the John Heinz Neighborhood Development Program. The NOFA announced the availability of $132,978 for Fiscal Year 1996 under the John Heinz Neighborhood Development Program, to eligible technical assistance providers to provide technical assistance to eligible neighborhood development organizations. HUD was unable to select a technical assistance provider from the 14 applications received due to the fact that the applicants were either: (1) ineligible applicants; (2) applicants that did not propose to provide technical assistance to eligible neighborhood-based organizations; (3) applicants that proposed to serve only a single geographic area; or (4) applicants that did not respond to the Factors for Award. Therefore, no award/awards were made under the August 12, 1996 NOFA. Dated: November 27, 1996. Andrew Cuomo, Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development.
