The purpose and effect of the proposed rule development is to amend specific Fish and Wildlife Research Institute grant program guidelines that are incorporated by reference into the overall rule on the issuance of agency grants. The amendment will update the date of the guidelines referenced in the rule from February 2005 to January 2007. The guidelines have been changed to addresses the appointment and membership of the Fish and Wildlife Research Grants Committee, deleting the specific member’s names while maintaining the existing procedure for determining membership and appointments. Changes are also made to conform to the renumbering of the rule.
