This document also established an application deadline for applicants to submit their applications for Fiscal Year (FY) 2010 on April 12, 2011. The Agency is extending the application period to May 6, 2011. Applications received after May 6, 2011, will not be considered for FY 2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Under this Program, the Agency will enter into contracts with advanced biofuel producers to pay such producers for the production of eligible advanced biofuels.
As published, the interim rule stated that applications for FY 2010 must be submitted by April 12, 2011. This date is referenced in the preamble SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION on page 7936, column 2, lines 4 and 5 and on page 7966, column 2, in the last paragraph of the column. The Agency is extending the application period to May 6, 2011.
