## Abstract

The Department of Energy (DOE) is amending its Assistance Regulations to make changes in the solicitation requirements and the way the public is notified of funding opportunities that result in the award of grants and cooperative agreements. The Department's Assistance Regulations currently require that solicitations or notices of solicitations be published in the Federal Register. Since March 2003, DOE has also been posting synopses of solicitations on the Grants.gov FIND module at http://www.Grants.gov. This is the government-wide Internet site for Federal agencies' announcements of financial assistance funding opportunities. DOE will continue providing notices of announcements of funding opportunities in both the Federal Register and at the Grants.gov FIND module until the effective date of this rule. After that date, DOE will no longer publish separate notices in the Federal Register, because the information is provided at the Grants.gov FIND Internet site.
