consultative process with Indian tribes
and other interested parties about the
future implementation of this program,
as soon as possible, without unduly
delaying this year’s grant competition.
Accordingly, the Secretary has
determined that it is preferable to award
grants for one-year project periods in FY
2001, rather than to award grants for
three-year project periods. The
extension of the application deadline is
intended to provide eligible applicants,
who have begun preparation of three-
year project applications based on the
March 28, 2001 notice, with additional
time to revise their applications in
accordance with this notice of
modification.
New Deadline for Transmittal of
Applications: June 21, 2001.

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of
Energy (DOE) Office of Research and
Engineering (NN–20), of the Office of
Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation (NN),
National Nuclear Security
Administration (NNSA), in keeping
with its mission to strengthen the
Nation’s capabilities in the areas of
nonproliferation of weapons of mass
destruction and national security
through the support of science,
engineering and mathematics,
announces its interest in receiving grant
applications from academic researchers,
preferably in collaborative partnerships
with U.S. Department of Energy
Laboratories. The purpose of this
program is to expand our national
capability to detect illicit nuclear
proliferation activities and to attract
new talent to national security research
and development organizations. The
DOE is seeking applications from
domestic private and public institutions
of higher learning to support innovative
research in areas that will contribute to
the Department of Energy’s
Nonproliferation and National Security
missions.
DATES: The deadline for receipt of
applications is 5 p.m. MDT June 18,
2001. The issuance date of Solicitation
No. DE–PS07–01ID14060 will be

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
purpose of this program is to expand
our national capability to detect illicit
nuclear proliferation activities and to
attract new talent to national security
research and development
organizations. The DOE is seeking
applications from domestic private and
public institutions of higher learning to
support innovative research in areas
that will contribute to the Department of
Energy’s Nonproliferation and National
Security missions. Approximately
$600,000 in federal funds is expected to
be available to fund the first year of
selected research efforts. DOE
anticipates making 3 grant awards, each
with a budget of $200,000 per year and
a project performance period of three
years. Additional grants may be
awarded at a later date if more funding
becomes available. There is a limit of
one award per institution. Award of a
grant under this solicitation does not
commit the Government to fund any
follow-on research. Successful
applicants will be required to submit
annual and final reports to DOE. Project
performance periods are divided into
budget periods. Each budget period is
12 months, beginning on the day of
award. Continuation of the award into
each new budget period will be based
on submission of timely and informative
reports; adequate progress based on
reports and site visits from DOE
representatives; and adequate planning
for the new budget period. Planning
should be based on the budget period
not the fiscal or calendar year. All U.S.
institutions of higher learning, whether
private or public, may submit
applications in response to this
solicitation. DOE anticipates that federal
funds provided through this solicitation
will be used to support research and
development (R&D) by faculty and
students at institutions of higher
learning. Collaboration or a close
working relationship with a DOE
National Laboratory is strongly
encouraged; however, no award dollars
can be used to fund DOE Laboratory
activities.
The solicitation will be available in
full text via the Internet on DOE’s
Industry Interactive Procurement
System (IIPS) at http://e-center.doe.gov.
Technical and non-technical questions
should be submitted in writing to
