short period of time; illuminate the
complex range of policies, programs,
and practices used by these turnaround
schools; and compare them to strategies
employed by not improving, chronically
low-performing schools. The ultimate
goal of the study is to specify replicable
policies, programs, and practices that
hold greatest promise for further
rigorous analysis. To this end, the study
will collect data from school principals
as well as school staff through a webbased and telephone survey and on-site
interviews in selected schools. The data
will be used by the U.S. Department of
Education to identify policies,
programs, and practices associated with
school turnaround that can be
rigorously tested in a future impact
evaluation study.

I. Funding Opportunity Description
Purpose of Program: The Migrant
Education Even Start (MEES) Family
Literacy program is intended to help
break the cycle of poverty and illiteracy
of migratory agricultural or fishing
families by improving the educational
opportunities of these families through
the integration of early childhood
education, adult literacy or adult basic
education, and parenting education into
a unified family literacy program. This
program is implemented through
cooperative activities that build on highquality existing community resources to
create a new range of educational
services for the most-in-need migratory
agricultural or fishing families, promote
the academic achievement of migratory
children and adults, assist migratory
children in meeting challenging State
content standards and challenging State
achievement standards, and use
instructional programs based on
scientifically based reading research on
preventing and overcoming reading
difficulties for children and adults. The
application package contains a
description of the 15 program elements
that MEES projects must implement, as
required by Title I, Part B, section 1235
of the Elementary and Secondary
Education Act of 1965, as amended
(ESEA).
Priority: This notice includes one
competitive preference priority. This
priority is from the Education
Department General Administrative
Regulations (EDGAR) that apply to this
program (34 CFR 75.225).
Competitive Preference Priority: For
FY 2010 and any subsequent year in
which we make awards from the list of
unfunded applicants from this
competition, this priority is a
competitive preference priority. Under
34 CFR 75.105(c)(2)(i), we award an
additional five points to an application
that meets this priority.
This priority is:
Novice Applicant
The applicant must be a ‘‘novice
applicant.’’ Under 34 CFR 75.225 a
novice applicant is an applicant that has
never received a grant or subgrant under
the MEES program; has never been a
participant in a group application,
submitted in accordance with §§ 75.127
through 75.129 of EDGAR, that received
a grant under the MEES program; and
has not had an active discretionary grant
from the Federal Government in the five
years before the deadline date for
applications under the MEES program.
Program Authority: 20 U.S.C.

III. Eligibility Information
1. Eligible Applicants: Any State or
local government entity, institution of
higher education or non-profit
organization is eligible to apply for a
grant under the MEES Program. For
example, the following types of entities
are eligible to apply: State educational
agencies (SEAs) that administer migrant
education programs; local educational
agencies (LEAs) that have a high
percentage of migratory students;
nonprofit community-based
organizations that work with migratory
agricultural or fishing families; and
faith-based organizations that work with
migratory agricultural or fishing
families.
2. Cost Sharing or Matching: See
section 1234(b) of the ESEA. MEES
grants are funded for 48 months. The
matching requirement for a new MEES
program begins at 10 percent of the total
cost of the project in the project’s first
year and increases incrementally as the
project continues to receive Federal
support, through 40 percent in its fourth
budget cycle. Previously funded MEES
projects may apply for a second 48month cycle, where, in years 5 through
8, the project must provide a 50 percent
cost share of the total cost of the project.
Further, a current or former MEES
project may apply for a third project
cycle that would fund their ninth year
and beyond. Those projects, beginning
in year 9, must maintain a 65 percent
cost share of the total cost of the project.
See ESEA section 1234(b).

The Commission’s Rules of Practice
and Procedure require all intervenors
filing documents with the Commission
to serve a copy of that document on
each person whose name appears on the
official service list for the project.
Further, if an intervenor files comments
or documents with the Commission
relating to the merits of an issue that
may affect the responsibilities of a
particular resource agency, they must
also serve a copy of the document on
that resource agency.
k. Description of Application: The
applicant seeks approval to amend
Article 407 of its project license to
revise the schedule for management of
lake levels (rule curve). Under the
licensed rule curve, the reservoir level
is maintained at an elevation of 439 feet
mean sea level (msl) between April 15
and August 31 of each year. Beginning
on September 1, the reservoir level is
then reduced until it reaches 437 feet
msl by October 1. The level is
maintained at 437 feet msl until January
1, and then is further reduced to 434.5
feet msl by February 1. At that time, the
reservoir level starts increasing until it
reaches 439 feet msl, and the annual
cycle is repeated.
Now the licensee proposes to
maintain the reservoir level at 439 feet
msl from April 15 until November 1.
Between November 1 and December 1
the reservoir level would gradually
descend to 437 feet msl, then continue
descending to 434.5 feet msl between
December 1 and January 15, and be
maintained at 434.5 feet msl until
January 31. Between February 1 and
April 15, the reservoir level would
gradually increase from 434.5 feet msl to
439 feet msl. In addition, the reservoir
levels may be occasionally modified to
the extent necessary to comply with the
minimum downstream releases required
by Article 408. In summary, the licensee
proposes to maintain the upper
reservoir level of 439 feet msl for two
additional months through November 1,
and to attain the low reservoir level of
434.5 feet msl by January 15 instead of
February 1. The licensee states that
these proposed changes to the operating
rule curve would allow greater
recreational access to the lake during
the fall and, in the winter, allow
additional time to complete
maintenance work which requires lower
water levels.
l. A copy of the application is
available for review at the Commission
in the Public Reference Room or may be
viewed on the Commission’s Web site at
https://www.ferc.gov using the ‘‘eLibrary’’
link. Enter the docket number excluding
the last three digits in the docket

Intervene: Anyone may submit
comments, a protest, or a motion to
intervene in accordance with the
requirements of Rules of Practice and
Procedure, 18 CFR 385.210, .211, .214.

protests or other comments filed, but
only those who file a motion to
intervene in accordance with the
Commission’s Rules may become a
party to the proceeding. Any comments,
protests, or motions to intervene must
be received on or before the specified
comment date for the particular
application.
Any filings must bear in all capital
letters the title ‘‘COMMENTS,’’
‘‘PROTEST,’’ or ‘‘MOTION TO
INTERVENE,’’ as applicable, and the
Project Number of the particular
application to which the filing refers. A
copy of any motion to intervene must
also be served upon each representative
of the Applicant specified in the
particular application.
o. Agency Comments: Federal, State,
and local agencies are invited to file
comments on the described application.
A copy of the application may be
obtained by agencies directly from the
applicant. If an agency does not file
comments within the time specified for
filing comments, it will be presumed to
have no comments. One copy of an
agency’s comments must also be sent to
the Applicant’s representatives.

Full Text of Announcement
I. Funding Opportunity Description
Purpose of Program: The Migrant Education Even Start (MEES) Family
Literacy program is intended to help break the cycle of poverty and
illiteracy of migratory agricultural or fishing families by improving
the educational opportunities of these families through the integration
of early childhood education, adult literacy or adult basic education,
and parenting education into a unified family literacy program. This
program is implemented through cooperative activities that build on
high-quality existing community resources to create a new range of
educational services for the most-in-need migratory agricultural or
fishing families, promote the academic achievement of migratory
children and adults, assist migratory children in meeting challenging
State content standards and challenging State achievement standards,
and use instructional programs based on scientifically based reading
research on preventing and overcoming reading difficulties for children
and adults. The application package contains a description of the 15
program elements that MEES projects must implement, as required by
Title I, Part B, section 1235 of the Elementary and Secondary Education
Act of 1965, as amended (ESEA).
Priority: This notice includes one competitive preference priority.
This priority is from the Education Department General Administrative
Regulations (EDGAR) that apply to this program (34 CFR 75.225).
Competitive Preference Priority: For FY 2010 and any subsequent
year in which we make awards from the list of unfunded applicants from
this competition, this priority is a competitive preference priority.
Under 34 CFR 75.105(c)(2)(i), we award an additional five points to an
application that meets this priority.
This priority is:
Novice Applicant
The applicant must be a ``novice applicant.'' Under 34 CFR 75.225 a
novice applicant is an applicant that has never received a grant or
subgrant under the MEES program; has never been a participant in a
group application, submitted in accordance with Sec. Sec. 75.127
through 75.129 of EDGAR, that received a grant under the MEES program;
and has not had an active discretionary grant from the Federal
Government in the five years before the deadline date for applications
under the MEES program.
Program Authority: 20 U.S.C. 6381a(a)(1)(A).
[[Page 15697]]
Applicable Regulations: EDGAR in 34 CFR parts 74, 75, 77, 79, 80,
81, 82, 84, 85, 86, 97, 98, and 99.
Note: The regulations in 34 CFR part 79 apply to all applicants
except federally recognized Indian tribes.
Note: The regulations in 34 CFR part 86 apply to institutions of
higher education only.
II. Award Information
Type of Award: Discretionary grants.
Estimated Available Funds: $1,196,500.
Contingent upon the availability of funds and the quality of
applications, we may make additional awards in FY 2011 from the list of
unfunded applicants from this competition.
Estimated Range of Awards: $250,000-$400,000 per year.
Estimated Average Size of Awards: $325,000 per year.
Estimated Number of Awards: 3.
Note: The Department is not bound by any estimates in this
notice.
Project Period: Up to 48 months.
III. Eligibility Information
1. Eligible Applicants: Any State or local government entity,
institution of higher education or non-profit organization is eligible
to apply for a grant under the MEES Program. For example, the following
types of entities are eligible to apply: State educational agencies
(SEAs) that administer migrant education programs; local educational
agencies (LEAs) that have a high percentage of migratory students;
nonprofit community-based organizations that work with migratory
agricultural or fishing families; and faith-based organizations that
work with migratory agricultural or fishing families.
2. Cost Sharing or Matching: See section 1234(b) of the ESEA. MEES
grants are funded for 48 months. The matching requirement for a new
MEES program begins at 10 percent of the total cost of the project in
the project's first year and increases incrementally as the project
continues to receive Federal support, through 40 percent in its fourth
budget cycle. Previously funded MEES projects may apply for a second
48-month cycle, where, in years 5 through 8, the project must provide a
50 percent cost share of the total cost of the project. Further, a
current or former MEES project may apply for a third project cycle that
would fund their ninth year and beyond. Those projects, beginning in
year 9, must maintain a 65 percent cost share of the total cost of the
project. See ESEA section 1234(b).
3. Other: Eligible MEES participants consist of migratory children
and their parents who meet the definitions of a migratory child, a
migratory agricultural worker, or a migratory fisher in 34 CFR 200.81,
and who also meet the additional conditions specified in section
1236(a) of the ESEA.

please go to https://www.ed.gov/fund/grant/apply/appforms/appforms.html.
4. Performance Measures: The Government Performance and Results Act
(GPRA) directs Federal departments and agencies to improve the
effectiveness of their programs by engaging in strategic planning,
setting outcome-related goals for programs, and measuring program
results against those goals. Program officials must develop performance
measures for all of their grant programs in order to assess their
performance and effectiveness. The Department has established a set of
measures to assess the effectiveness of the Even Start program. The
MEES Family Literacy projects will report data on the following
measures: (1) The percentage of adults showing significant learning
gains on measures of reading; (2) the percentage of limited English
proficient (LEP) adults showing significant learning gains on measures
of English language acquisition; (3) the percentage of school-age
adults who earn a high school diploma or GED; (4) the percentage of
non-school-age adults who earn a high school diploma or GED; (5) the
percentage of children entering kindergarten who are achieving
significant learning gains on measures of language development; (6) the
average number of letters preschool-age children can identify; (7) the
percentage of school-age children who are reading on grade level; and
(8) percentage of parents who show improvement on measures of parental
support for children's learning in the home, school environment, and
