Two Pell Grants in one year?

From a link on another thread I found this:

Quote:
The HEOA legislation authorized schools to disburse up to two Pell Grants in a single award year to Pell-eligible students. We also refer to this provision as allowing up to 200 percent of a student’s Pell Grant scheduled award in a single award year or allowing up to two times a student’s Pell Grant scheduled award in a single award year. This change was implemented during the 2009-2010 award year.
Could someone just give me a quick overview of this? Does it mean that if you go to school year round you can get extra Pell Grant money? I am just very confused and wondering what it meant.

Many thanks!
