2B Aero, Radio Frequency (RF) 

Missiles (BGM–71F–3–RF) 

Seven (7) TOW 2B Aero, RF Missile 

(BGM–71F–3–RF) Fly-to-Buy Missiles 

The estimated value of MDE is $51 

million. The total estimated cost of this 

effort is $51 million. 

This proposed sale will contribute to 

the foreign policy and national security 

of the United States by helping to 

improve the security of a friendly 

country which has been, and continues 

to be, an important force for political 

stability and economic progress in the 

Middle East. 

The proposed sale of the TOW 2B 

Missiles and technical support will 

advance Oman’s efforts to develop an 

integrated ground defense capability. 

Oman will use this capability to 

strengthen its homeland defense and 

enhance interoperability with the U.S. 

and other allies. Oman will have no 

difficulty absorbing these missiles into 

its armed forces. 

The proposed sale of this equipment 

and support will not alter the basic 

military balance in the region. 

The principal contractor will be 

Raytheon Missile Systems, Tucson, 

Arizona. 

There are no known offset agreements 

proposed in connection with this 

potential sale. 

Implementation of this proposed sale 

will require the U.S. Government or 

contractor representatives to travel to 

Oman for multiple periods for 

equipment de-processing/fielding, 

system checkout and new equipment 

training. There will be no more than 

three (3) contractor personnel in Oman 

at any one time and all efforts will take 

less than fourteen (14) weeks in total. 

There will be no adverse impact on 

U.S. defense readiness as a result of this 

proposed sale. 

Transmittal No. 15–65 

Notice of Proposed Issuance of Letter of 

Offer Pursuant to Section 36(b)(1) of the 

Arms Export Control Act, as amended 

Annex 

Item No. vii 

(vii) Sensitivity of Technology: 

1. The Radio Frequency (RF) Tubelaunched Optically-tracked Wire guided 

(TOW) 2B Aero Missile (BGM–71F–3– 

RF) is a fly-over, shoot-down version 

with the actual missile flight path offset 

above the gunner’s aim point. The TOW 

2B flies over the target and uses a laser 

profilometer and magnetic sensor to 

detect and fire two downward-directed, 

explosively-formed penetrator warheads 

into the target. The TOW 2B has a range 

of 200 to 3750m. A Radio Frequency 

(RF) Data link, replaced the traditional 

TOW wire guidance link in all new 

production variants of the TOW 

beginning in FY 07. No RF TOW AERO 

technical data will be released during 

program development without prior 

approval from the Office of the Deputy 

Assistant Secretary of the Army for 

Defense Exports and Cooperation. The 

hardware for the TOW 2B is 

UNCLASSIFIED. Software for 

performance data, lethality penetration 

and sensors are classified SECRET. 

2. If a technologically advanced 

adversary were to obtain knowledge of 

the specific hardware and software 

elements, the information could be used 

to develop countermeasures that might 

reduce weapon system effectiveness or 

be used in the development of a system 

with similar or advanced capabilities. 

3. A determination has been made 

that the recipient country can provide 

substantially the same degree of 

protection for the sensitive technology 

being released as the U.S. Government. 

This sale is necessary in furtherance of 

the U.S. foreign policy and national 

security objectives outlined in the 

Policy Justification. 

4. All defense articles and services 

listed in this transmittal have been 

authorized for release and export to the 

Government of Oman.

AGENCY: Office of Elementary and 

Secondary Education, Department of 

Education. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: Under the Small, Rural 

School Achievement (SRSA) program, 

the U.S. Department of Education 

(Department) awards grants on a 

formula basis to eligible local 

educational agencies (LEAs) to address 

the unique needs of rural school 

districts. In this notice, we establish the 

deadline for submission of fiscal year 

(FY) 2016 SRSA grant applications. 

An eligible LEA that has not 

previously submitted an application for 

SRSA funds in any prior year must 

submit an application electronically by 

the deadline in this notice. 

DATES: Application Deadline: May 2, 

2016, 4:30:00 p.m., Washington, DC 

time.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Under what statutory authority will FY 

2016 SRSA awards be made? 

The FY 2016 SRSA awards will be 

made under the statutory authority in 

title VI, part B, subpart 1 of the 

Elementary and Secondary Education 

Act of 1965 (ESEA), as amended by the 

No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (Pub. 

L. 107–110). Recently, the SRSA 

program was reauthorized under title V, 

part B, subpart 1 of the ESEA, as 

amended by the Every Student Succeeds 

Act (ESSA) (Pub. L. 114–95). However, 

under the Consolidated Appropriations 

Act, 2016 (Pub. L. 114–113), changes to 

the SRSA program under ESSA will not 

take effect until the 2017–18 school 

year. 

Which LEAs are eligible for an award 

under the SRSA program? 

For FY 2016, 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: For FY 2016, 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 ESEA, as amended by the No 

Child Left Behind Act of 2001. 

Which eligible LEAs must submit an 

application to receive an FY 2016 SRSA 

grant award? 

Under the regulations in 34 CFR 

75.104(a), the Secretary makes a grant 

only to an eligible party that submits an 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

6252 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 24 / Friday, February 5, 2016 / Notices 

application. However, 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. Unless an 

LEA advises the Secretary by the 

application deadline that it is 

withdrawing its application, the 

Secretary deems any previously 

submitted application to remain in 

effect for FY 2016. Accordingly, an 

eligible LEA must submit an FY 2016 

application only if that LEA has not 

submitted an application for SRSA 

funds in any prior year. 

We intend to provide, by April 1, 

2016, a list of LEAs eligible for FY 2016 

funds on the Department’s Web site at 

http://www2.ed.gov/programs/reapsrsa/

eligibility.html. This list will indicate 

which eligible LEAs have already met 

the application requirement, and which 

eligible LEAs must submit an 

application to receive an FY 2016 SRSA 

grant award. All eligible LEAs that need 

to submit an application will be 

highlighted in yellow on the SRSA 

eligibility spreadsheets. 

Electronic Submission of Applications 

An eligible LEA that is required to 

submit an application to receive FY 

2016 SRSA funds must submit an 

electronic application by May 2, 2016, 

4:30:00 p.m., Washington, DC time. Any 

application received from an eligible 

LEA after this deadline will be funded 

only to the extent that funds are 

available after the Department awards 

grants to other eligible LEAs under the 

program. 

Submission of an electronic 

application involves the use of the 

Department’s G5 System. Prospective 

applicants can access the electronic 

application for the SRSA Program at: 

www.g5.gov. When applicants access 

this site, they will receive specific 

instructions regarding the information 

to include in the SRSA application.
