### 21877 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 75 / Tuesday, April 19, 2011 / Notices

Proposals may be submitted electronically or in paper format by mail or hand delivery. We will not consider any proposal that does not comply with the deadline requirements.

a. Electronic Submission of Proposals. If you choose to submit your proposal to us electronically, email your proposal
to TEACHrfp@ed.gov. Please note the following:

• You must complete the electronic submission of your proposal by 4:30 p.m., Washington, DC time, on May 19,
2011.

• You will not receive additional point value because you submit your proposal in electronic format, nor will we penalize you if you submit your proposal in paper format.

• You must submit all documents electronically, including any narrative sections and all other attachments to your proposal as files in a .PDF (Portable Document) format only. If you upload a file type other than a .PDF or submit a password-protected file, we will not review that material.

• Prior to submitting your electronic proposal, you may wish to print a copy of it for your records.

• We may request that you provide us original signatures on other documents at a later date.

Deadline Date Extension in Case of System Unavailability: If you are prevented from electronically submitting your proposal on the deadline date because TEACHrfp@ed.gov was unavailable, we will grant you an extension of one business day to enable you to transmit your proposal electronically, by mail, or by hand delivery. We will grant this extension if—

• TEACHrfp@ed.gov was unavailable for 60 minutes or more between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., Washington, DC time, on the deadline date; or

• TEACHrfp@ed.gov was unavailable for any period of time between 3:30 p.m. and 4:30 p.m., Washington, DC time, on the deadline date.

We must acknowledge and confirm these periods of unavailability before granting you an extension. To request this extension or to confirm our acknowledgment of any system unavailability, you may e-mail TEACHrfp@ed.gov. If TEACHrfp@ed.gov was unavailable due to technical problems with the system and, therefore, the proposal deadline is extended, an e-mail will be sent to all entities that informed the Department that they intended to submit a proposal.

Extensions referred to in this section apply only to the unavailability of TEACHrfp@ed.gov. If TEACHrfp@ed.gov is available, and, for any reason, you are unable to submit your proposal electronically, you may submit your proposal in paper format by mail or hand delivery in accordance with the instructions in this notice.

b. Submission of Paper Copies of Proposals by Mail. If you submit your proposal in paper format by mail (through the U.S. Postal Service or a commercial carrier), you must mail the original and two copies of your proposal, on or before the proposal deadline date, to the Department at the following address: The TEACH Campaign, Office of Innovation and Improvement, U.S. Department of Education, 400 Maryland Ave., SW., Washington, DC 20202–5930.

You must show proof of mailing consisting of one of the following:

(i) A legibly dated U.S. Postal Service postmark.

(ii) A legible mail receipt with the date of mailing stamped by the U.S. Postal Service.

(iii) A dated shipping label, invoice, or receipt from a commercial carrier.

(iv) Any other proof of mailing acceptable to the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Education.

If you mail your proposal through the U.S. Postal Service, note that the Department does not accept either of the following as proof of mailing:

(i) A private metered postmark. (ii) A mail receipt that is not dated by the U.S. Postal Service.

If your proposal is postmarked after the proposal deadline date, we will not consider your proposal.

Note: The U.S. Postal Service does not uniformly provide a dated postmark. Before relying on this method, you should check with your local post office.

c. Submission of Paper Copies of Proposals by Hand Delivery. If you submit your proposal in paper format by hand delivery, you (or a courier service) must deliver the original and two copies of your proposal by hand, on or before the deadline date, to the Department at the following address: The TEACH Campaign, Office of Innovation and Improvement, U.S. Department of Education, 400 Maryland Ave., SW., Washington, DC 20202–5930.
