SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Which LEAs are eligible for an award under the SRSA program?

    An LEA (including a public charter school that is considered an LEA 
under State law) is eligible for an award under the SRSA program if--
    (a) The total number of students in average daily attendance at all 
of the schools served by the LEA is fewer than 600, or each county in 
which a school served by the LEA is located has a total population 
density of fewer than 10 persons per square mile; and
    (b)(1) All of the schools served by the LEA are designated with a 
school locale code of 7 or 8 by the Department's National Center for 
Education Statistics (NCES); or
    (2) The Secretary has determined, based on a demonstration by the 
LEA and concurrence of the State educational agency, that the LEA is 
located in an area defined as rural by a governmental agency of the 
State.

    Note: The school locale codes are the locale codes determined on 
the basis of the NCES school code methodology in place on the date 
of enactment of section 6211(b) of the Elementary and Secondary 
Education Act of 1965, as amended.

Which eligible LEAs must submit an application to receive an FY 2015 
SRSA grant award?

    An eligible LEA must submit an application to receive an FY 2015 
SRSA grant award if that LEA has never submitted an application for 
SRSA funds in any prior year.
    All eligible LEAs that need to submit an application to receive an 
SRSA grant award in a given year are highlighted in yellow on the SRSA 
eligibility spreadsheets, which are posted annually on the SRSA program 
Web site at www2.ed.gov/programs/reapsrsa/eligibility.html.
    Under the regulations in 34 CFR 75.104(a), the Secretary makes a 
grant only to an eligible party that submits an application. Given the 
limited purpose served by the application under the SRSA program, the 
Secretary considers the application requirement to be met if an LEA 
submitted an SRSA application for any prior year. In this circumstance, 
unless an LEA advises the Secretary by the application deadline that it 
is withdrawing its application, the Secretary deems the application 
that an LEA previously submitted to remain in effect for FY 2015 
funding, and the LEA does not have to submit an additional application.
    We intend to provide, by March 30, 2015, a list of LEAs eligible 
for FY 2015 funds on the Department's Web site at https://www2.ed.gov/programs/reapsrsa/eligibility.html. This list will indicate which 
eligible LEAs must submit an electronic application to the Department 
to receive an FY 2015 SRSA grant award, and which eligible LEAs are 
considered already to have met the application requirement.
    Eligible LEAs that need to submit an application in order to 
receive FY 2015 SRSA funds must do so electronically by the deadline 
established in this notice.
    Electronic Submission of Applications: An eligible LEA that is 
required to submit an application to receive FY 2015 SRSA funds must 
submit an electronic application by June 30, 2015, 4:30:00 p.m., 
Washington, DC, time. If it submits its application after this 
deadline, the LEA will receive a grant award only to the extent that 
funds are available after the Department awards grants to other 
eligible LEAs under the program.
    Applications to receive FY 2015 SRSA funds may be obtained from, 
and must be submitted electronically using, the G5 system, accessible 
through the Department's G5 site at: www.G5.gov. When applicants access 
this site, they will receive specific instructions regarding the 
information to include in the SRSA application.
