DATES: The public workshop will be held on Tuesday, December 1, 2009, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Alaska standard time. ADDRESSES: The workshop will be held at the Unalaska Public Library Alaskana Room, 64 Eleanor Drive, Unalaska, Alaska. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Alan Kinsolving, 928–774–4362 or Jennifer Watson, 907–586–7537. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The North Pacific Fishery Management Council has requested that NMFS prepare a discussion paper on improved catch accounting in the longline catcher/ processor sector of the Pacific cod fishery off Alaska. Pacific cod and associated bycatch in this fishery are currently accounted for using data collected by NMFS-certified observers. Because only a portion of sets in the fishery are observed, the data from observed sets are extrapolated to estimate catch from unobserved sets and for unobserved trips. In order to improve catch and bycatch accounting in this fishery, a group representing many of the freezer-longline vessel owners, the Freezer Longline Coalition, has suggested that Pacific cod be accounted for using the weight of processed product coupled with an estimate of drop-offs (fish which are caught but that do not enter the factory) made by a NMFS-certified observer. NMFS staff believes that cod catch can best be accounted for using motioncompensated scales to weigh Pacific cod prior to processing coupled with an observer estimate of drop-offs. However, there are issues associated with available space and product quality that may make this approach less practical in this fishery than in others where the use of motion-compensated scales is required. New approaches to catch accounting may lead to increased duties for observers as well as necessitating additional work space for observers. In order to inform the discussion paper that NMFS staff will be preparing on this issue, we seek input into the vessel-specific difficulties associated with the use of motion-compensated scales to weigh all retained cod; and issues associated with providing additional space for an observer sampling station. This workshop is open to the public, but NMFS is particularly seeking input from people who work on freezer longliners and are familiar with vessel operations. The workshop has been timed to coincide with a period when a large number of freezer longliners will VerDate Nov<24>2008 15:15 Nov 23, 2009 Jkt 220001 be in Dutch Harbor/Unalaska. As part of the process of gathering information on this issue, NMFS staff will be available before and after the meeting to tour individual vessels and discuss specific issues related to available space and the feasibility of weighing catch prior to processing. Special Accommodations The workshop will be physically accessible to people with disabilities. Requests for sign language interpretation or other auxiliary aids should be directed to Jennifer Watson, 907–586–7537, at least 10 working days prior to the meeting date. Dated: November 18, 2009.

Military-Connected Schools.

K-12 Education

    The Department of Defense considers the education of the dependents 
of members of the Armed Forces to be a critical quality of life issue. 
K-12 education concerns are often cited as a key reason for requesting 
changes in assignment and for deciding not to reenlist.

Eligibility

    Eligibility is determined through a two-tier process. The first 
tier, selection of installations, was determined by the Military 
Services and DoDEA using data provided by the Military Services as of 
October 2009. Installations had to have growth of 400 or more military 
students over the 2009-10 and 2010-11 school years in order to qualify. 
If an installation qualified, the Military Services listed the LEAs 
that served it. See attached list. LEAs were not involved in the 
determination of installation growth. LEAs that were listed must meet 
the requirements of the second tier of eligibility in order to submit a 
concept paper/full application.
    The second tier of eligibility is based on the size and percentage 
of the military student population measured at the school, not the 
district, level and on

military) students or 450 or more military students must target either 
their eligible elementary schools or their eligible secondary schools. 
LEAs with fewer than 4,500 total (military and non-military) students 
and fewer than 450 military students may target their eligible 
elementary and/or eligible secondary schools.
     Definition: Military student is defined as an elementary 
or secondary school student who is a dependent of a member of the Armed 
Forces or a civilian employee of the Department of Defense who is 
employed on Federal property. LEAs usually use Impact Aid data to 
determine their military student population.
