NOTICE TO PARTICIPANTS

IN THE DIGITAL TELEVISION TRANSITION SURVEY

[Re: Release of DTV Survey Data to General Accounting
Office]{.underline}

The U.S. General Accounting Office (GAO) is conducting a review of the
Corporation for Public Broadcasting. In connection with this ongoing
project, GAO has requested access to certain information that the
Federal Communications Commission collected through a recent survey (May
2003) related to the transition to digital television (DTV).
Specifically, GAO seeks access to survey responses submitted to the
Commission by noncommercial educational television licensees (NCEs).

GAO's request for the survey data is made pursuant to 31 U.S.C. § 716,
under which federal agencies must provide GAO with access to records
held by such agencies. GAO notes in its request that it is required by
that section to maintain the same level of confidentiality for records
provided as is required of the head of the agency from which they are
obtained, and that GAO is precluded by 18 U.S.C. § 1905 from disclosing
confidential business information. Although the statutory proscription
is not applicable to disclosures to Congress, GAO explains that it is
GAO's policy to respect business confidential information and to protect
the competitive positions of individual companies in a manner consistent
with its reporting responsibilities. GAO also indicates that, as a
general matter, it excludes proprietary and confidential business
information from its congressional reports. If transmittal of that
information becomes necessary, GAO states that it will transmit any such
information separately and alert the recipient in Congress to the
sensitivity of the information and advise that release of it may be
prohibited by 18 U.S.C. § 1905. Finally, GAO states that it does not
disclose records in its files to the public that originate in another
agency and that it will refer any such requests to the originating
agency.

Commission regulations provide that proprietary and commercially
sensitive information will be withheld from public disclosure, subject
to the public's right to seek disclosure under the Freedom of
Information Act, 5 U.S.C. § 552. 47 C.F.R. § 0.457(d), 0.459(d).
Consistent with our regulations and the broadcast television stations'
expectations that information submitted to the Commission with a request
for confidential treatment not be made publicly available, we have
requested that the GAO not disclose confidential information contained
in the DTV survey responses.

Our regulations permit disclosure of records submitted to the Commission
in confidence to the Comptroller General (i.e. GAO) without prior
notification and that parties shall be notified of the disclosure of
those records to GAO. 47 C.F.R. § 0.442(d)(3). Accordingly, this notice
is being provided to broadcast television stations who have submitted
data in response to the DTV survey. If you have any questions, please
contact Michael Perko or David Savolaine in the Media Bureau at
202-418-7200.
Action Plan for Food Service Concerns

When schools in North Dakota were surveyed about starting the School
Breakfast Program, concerns were expressed about support from food
service personnel, food service time and energy, and adequate space and
facilities. This action plan addresses these concerns with possible
solutions.

**Concern:** Why should we start a breakfast program?

**Solution:** Mornings can be really crazy! School breakfast is an
option when family schedules are rushed or a child is unable to eat
early in the morning.

> Children ride the bus more than 30 minutes and get up as early as 5:30
>
> a.m. Recent studies show a link between nutrition and learning. A
> nutritious breakfast helps students be more alert so they can actively
> participate in class. Providing a nourishing breakfast every day
> allows your staff to be a part of the educational team. It also
> provides you with a great opportunity to interact with your students
> in a more relaxed setting so you can get to know them better. When
> asked about supervision of the breakfast service, Dixie Schultz, Food
> Service Director for the Mandan Public Schools, stated that food
> service indicates there are no behavior problems as students are just
> waking up and are happy to sit with friends or siblings. She also
> pointed out that adding breakfast provides additional revenue to the
> program, with costs that can be easily controlled with careful
> planning.

**Concern:** Food service staff members wonder how they will have the
time and energy to also prepare and serve breakfast.

**Solution:** When compared to lunch, breakfast can be a simpler meal to
prepare.

> Pre-packaged items can be used to keep labor costs at a minimum.
> Children
>
> serve themselves, and paper products are used to eliminate
> dishwashing. Just as with lunch, cycle menus can be utilized. Dixie
> Schultz, Food Service Director for the Mandan Public Schools, serves
> cereal, toast, juice and milk every day except Wednesdays when she
> varies the menu slightly by adding a cheese slice or a hot item.

**Concern:** Our cooler space may not be large enough to refrigerate
enough milk and juice for both breakfast and lunch.

**Solution #1:** If possible, modify the delivery schedule for milk and
juices so that milk cooler space is adequate for quantities for both
breakfast and lunch.

**Solution #2:** Purchase a 12-case milk cooler to store the additional
milk and juice needed for the program. Schools that need additional
refrigerated storage can usually find a used unit. North Dakota has a
State Surplus Department where schools can purchase surplus items for
little or no cost.

![](media/image1.png){width="0.25in"
height="0.32013888888888886in"}**Solution #3:** If the shelves are taken
out of a home-type refrigerator, several milk crates can be stacked in
the unit.

Chicago Math and Science Initiative

**Program Description**

**Rationale**

• Future opportunities and challenges facing students require
unprecedented skills in technology, critical thinking, and creative
problem solving, as well as a solid foundation with basic skills in
mathematics and basic conceptual understanding in science.

• For too many of our students, current levels of achievement in math
and science are not adequate to take advantage of these opportunities
and meet these challenges.

• A focus on mathematics and science helps children, helps Chicago, and
helps CPS.

**Basics**

• Comprehensive plan for mathematics and science improvement

• \$14.5 million commitment next year

• Additional \$10 million for renovation of high school science
laboratories

• 116 new positions for mathematics and science support

• Stronger partnerships with universities, national labs, and other
providers to leverage additional funds, expertise, and resources

• Consolidation and alignment of programs

• Improved data analysis and program evaluation

**Messages**

• The CMSI complements the Reading Initiative and is a critical step in
implementing the Education Plan.

• CMSI is a comprehensive program that will transform the way
mathematics and science are taught and supported throughout the Chicago
Public Schools - from the classroom, to the school, to the Instructional
Areas, to the whole district - and thus transform our students'
achievement in these essential subjects.

• CMSI includes better professional development, better support for
students, teachers, and principals, better instructional materials,
better assessment tools, laboratory facilities in our high schools, and
better coordination in policies and programs across CPS.

• Approaches and materials employed in CMSI promote a careful balance
between basic skills acquisition and development of conceptual
understanding.

• CMSI includes extensive support for teachers and teacher teams,
intensive programs for elementary schools, and a component for all high
schools.

**Goals** In 5 years (end of 2007-2008 school year):

• Mathematics and science instruction in Chicago Public Schools will be
improved, coherent, and well-supported.

• CPS students will perform significantly better on the math and science
ISAT and PSAE tests and the gap in performance between the CPS and the
state averages will be significantly narrowed.

• All math and science teachers will have, or be working towards, the
appropriate certification requirements.

• The number of students who complete a high-school level algebra class
in eighth grade will be increased dramatically.

• All high school science classes will be taught in fully renovated
modern laboratory classrooms.

• The percentage of students taking and passing an AP course in a math
or science subject with a score of 3 or higher will be increased
dramatically.

**FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:**

**XYZ Company Returns to Business**

After a brief hiatus, XYZ Company has re-opened with an exciting new
product line of wireless technology to assist businesses with their
growing IT needs.

**Reston, TX, October 8, 2003**- Bob Soldier, owner and president of the
XYZ Company who recently returned home after serving one year for the
United States Army in Iraq, announced on Monday that his company was
once again open for business. Along with re-opening, XYZ Company has
developed a unique dual band PC networking card that will enable
companies to operate more smoothly under the current wireless standard.

Unlike their major competitors, XYZ Company has created a dual band pc
card that reduces the amount of interruptions, while providing fast and
efficient service to the network. In the past, wireless pc cards have
been unreliable and incapable of handling a high volume of network
traffic. "XYZ's dual band pc card is a first of its kind. It has been
essential in our everyday operations because it provides our staff with
complete connectivity and compatibility", said GI Joe, President of MLA
Technologies.

"We are extremely excited about re-opening with this new product line.
The industry has needed a solution to the antiquated PC cards developed
in the early 90's. Our dual band PC card will allow both home and
business customers the flexibility to be connected at the fastest
wireless speeds possible where our technology is available. It will lead
to a number of opportunities for businesses to increase their
productivity. Its great to be back in business\...," commented Soldier.

Backed up by a five year warranty and 24 hour service, XYZ's new pc card
is currently available online through the company's website, as well as
through IT retailers, catalogues, and e-commerce sites.

About XYZ Company

Situated in the hill country in Reston, Texas, XYZ Company was founded
in 1987, by Bob Soldier in order to meet the growing IT needs for
corporate businesses. Over the past fifteen years, XYZ Company has

**Neugebauer Scores Another Victory for Fiscal Responsibility**

*Amendment Focuses Funding on Serious Mental Health* *Issues*

** **

**Washington, DC -** Congressman Randy Neugebauer succeeded Thursday in
restoring some fiscal responsibility in Congress by ending the funding
of federal grants to study dorm room wall decorations and \"what makes a
meaningful day.\"

 

   Neugebauer introduced an amendment to the FY 2005 Labor, Health and
Human Services, and Education Appropriations bill to prohibit the
National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) from funding two specific
grants.  The amendment, which does not take away funding for the NIMH,
but calls for the agency to focus its research funding on serious mental
health issues, was approved by voice vote.

 

   \"It is imperative that Congress be more responsible with taxpayer
money,\" Neugebauer said.  \"We should support research to find cures to
serious mental health diseases like Alzheimer\'s and depression instead
of wasting valuable dollars researching interior decorating for college
dorm rooms.\"

 

   Neugebauer introduced his amendment after reading the grant proposals
for two research projects.  The first study is titled \"Expressions of
Identity in Virtual and Physical Spaces.\" This study gave college
students \$100 to decorate their dorm room walls and design web pages. 
Researchers then attempted to discern how students express themselves
through these decorations.  Three \$1000 prizes were also given away in
a lottery to participants in the study.

 

   The second study, entitled \"Goals, Identity, and Meaning in Life,\"
attempted to find out \"what makes a meaningful day\" for today\'s
college students.  Since 1995, NIMH has provided more than \$1 million
to conduct this study.  The application for this study stated that
\"attending college may be a source of meaning itself-as a stepping
stone to future life goals or as a means of occupying a meaningful
social role.\"  The study also asked participants to keep a diary in
which they documented meaningful events. 

 

   \"The federal government has no business paying someone more than a
million dollars to figure out that college can be a meaningful
experience,\" Neugebauer said.  

 

   Several groups have expressed their support for Neugebauer\'s
amendments, including Concerned Women for America, Eagle Forum, and the
Family Research Council.

 

   Neugebauer is a member of the Washington Waste Watchers, a group of
House members working to bring fiscal responsibility back to the federal
government through eliminating waste, fraud, and abuse of taxpayer
money.

# News Alert #1

KWSD interrupts your regularly scheduled programming to bring you this
breaking news story. There appears to have been an accident involving a
speedy-ship delivery truck at the Zenith City Water Treatment Plant. The
driver of that truck, whose identity remains unknown at this time, was
on a routine delivery and apparently lost control of his vehicle,
swerving off of the driveway and crashing into one of the facility's
buildings. We are told that the driver is unconscious and is being taken
to Zenith City Hospital. There was a small engine fire in the vehicle,
and the wall of the building he hit suffered structural damages, but
fire and police authorities report that they have both situations under
control at this time. KWSD news now returs you to our "Election
Extravaganza" coverage.

\(a\) Under 31 U.S.C. 3716, VA and other creditor agencies must notify
Treasury of all debts over 180 days delinquent so that recovery of such
debts may be made by centralized administrative offset. This includes
those debts that VA and other agencies seek from the pay account of an
employee of another Federal agency via salary offset. Treasury and other
disbursing officials will match payments, including Federal salary
payments, against these debts. Where a match occurs, and all the
requirements for offset have been met, the payment will be offset to
satisfy the debt in whole or part.

\(b\) Prior to submitting a debt to Treasury for the purpose of
collection by offset, including salary offset, VA shall provide written
certification to Treasury that:

\(1\) The debt is past due and legally enforceable in the amount
submitted to Treasury and that VA will ensure that any subsequent
collections are credited to the debt and that Treasury shall be notified
of such;

\(2\) Except in the case of a judgment debt or as otherwise allowed by
law, the debt is referred to Treasury for offset within 10 years after
VA's right of action accrues;

\(3\) VA has complied with the provisions of 31 U.S.C. 3716 and 38 CFR
1.912 and 1.912a including, but not limited to, those provisions
requiring that VA provide the debtor with applicable notices and
opportunities for a review of the debt; and

\(4\) VA has complied with the provisions of 5 U.S.C. 5514 (salary
offset) and 38 CFR 1.980 through 1.994 including, but not limited to,
those provisions requiring that VA provide the debtor with applicable
notices and opportunities for a hearing.

\(c\) Specific procedures for notifying Treasury of debts for purposes
of collection by centralized administrative offset are contained in the
31 CFR 285.7. VA and other creditor agencies may notify Treasury of
debts that have been delinquent for 180 days or less, including debts
that VA and other creditor agencies seek to recover from the pay of an
employee via salary offset. (Authority: 31 U.S.C. 3716; 38 U.S.C. 501).
