You are correct about the 10 seat stipulation, which is included in the Senate bill that passed last week. However, a number of members of Congress (John McCain, to name drop) are pushing for complete termination of the EAS program in order to allow for local governments to fund and control programs themselves. Not sure that that push will have any effect since the Senate was pretty convincing in passing their bill (89-8), but stay tuned!
