## Abstract

This final rule amends the Cooperative State Research, Education, and Extension Service (CSREES) regulations relating to the administration of the Rangeland Research Grants Program, which prescribe the procedures to be followed annually in the solicitation of rangeland research grant proposals, the evaluation of such proposals, and the award of rangeland research grants under this program. This rule implements the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act as outlined in Sec. 3401.6(c)(16), revises the objectives of the program as stated in Sec. 3401.17(a), changes the agency name to reflect the Departmental Reorganization, and makes a few additional minor changes. CSREES is publishing these regulations in their entirety to enhance their use by the public and to ensure expeditious submission and processing of grant proposals.
