anticipates award of 1 - 2 cooperative agreement(s) whose total

competitive opportunity.

Proposed projects for the 2007 grant may involve a demonstration,
training, outreach and/or education project that uses the lessons
learned from other chemical management programs to develop a new or
expand an existing program that makes available and improves chemical
management in the K-12 schools of a community.  Eligibility and
