available in grant funds for educational and training programs to help 
identify, avoid, and prevent unsafe working conditions in and around

grant applications would be available June 30, 2009, on the Grants.gov 
Web site. The closing date for receipt of the grant applications was

ADDRESSES: Applications for grants submitted under this competition 
must be submitted electronically using the Government-wide site at

applicant, the MSHA Directorate of Educational Policy and Development 
will provide assistance to ensure that applications can be submitted 
online by the closing date. MSHA's Web page at http://www.msha.gov is a 
valuable source of background information on Brookwood-Sago Safety
