That notice incorrectly stated that match in the amount of 10 percent was required in order for applicants to meet the required cost match. This document corrects the error.

    In the Federal Register of July 25, 2016 (81 FR 48409), on page 
48409, in the third column, we revise the section ``2. Cost Sharing or 
Matching'' to read as follows: ``2. Cost Sharing or Matching: The 
Commissioner may award grants to public or private nonprofit agencies 
or organizations to pay part of the costs for interpreter training 
programs (section 302(f)(1)(A) of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973). 
Therefore, in order to be considered for funding, applicants must 
identify in the application budget and budget narrative a percentage of 
match towards the total cost of the project. It is up to the applicant 
to determine an appropriate percentage for the match contribution. To 
calculate match, applicants may use the match-calculator available at: 
https://rsa.ed.gov/match-calculator.cfm.''
