ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
The Department of Labor
(DOL), in collaboration with the
Department of Education (ED),
announces that eight States are eligible

U.S.C. 2801 et seq.) incentive grant
awards authorized by section 503 of the
WIA.

Change 12, which will be forthcoming.

Luke Murren at Murren.Luke@dol.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Eight
States (see Appendix) qualify to receive
a share of the $9,884,265 available for
incentive grant awards under WIA
section 503. These funds, which were
contributed by ED from appropriations
for the Adult Education and Family
Literacy Act at WIA title II (AEFLA), are
available for the eligible States to use
through June 30, 2016, to support
innovative workforce development and
education activities that are authorized
under WIA title IB (Workforce
Investment Systems) or WIA title II
(AEFLA), or under the Carl D. Perkins
Career and Technical Education Act of
2006 (Perkins IV), 20 U.S.C. 2301 et
seq., as amended by Public Law 109–
270. In order to qualify for a grant
award, a State must have exceeded its
performance levels for WIA title IB and
WIA title II. (Perkins IV removed the
requirement that funds be reserved to
carry out section 503 of WIA which only
referenced Pub. L. 105–332 (Perkins III);
thus, DOL and ED do not consider
States’ performance levels under
Perkins IV in determining eligibility for
incentive grants under section 503 of
WIA). The performance related goals
used to determine a State’s eligibility
status include: (1) Employment after
training and related services, as well as
retention in employment, and (2)
improvements in literacy levels, among
other measures. After review of the
performance data submitted by States to
DOL and ED, each Department
determined which States exceeded their
performance levels for its respective
program(s) (the Appendix at the bottom
of this notice lists the eligibility of each
State by program). These lists were
compared, and States that exceeded
their performance levels for both
programs are eligible to apply for and
receive an incentive grant award.
The States eligible to apply for
incentive grant awards and the amounts
they are eligible to receive are listed in
the following chart:

instructions on what happens to records
when no longer needed for current
Government business. They authorize
the preservation of records of
continuing value in the National

of records already authorized for
disposal. NARA invites public
comments on such records schedules, as
required by 44 U.S.C. 3303a(a).
DATES: Requests for copies must be
received in writing on or before May 15,
2014. Once the appraisal of the records
is completed, NARA will send a copy of
the schedule. NARA staff usually
prepare appraisal memoranda that
contain additional information

proposed schedule. These, too, may be
requested and will be provided once the
appraisal is completed. Requesters will
be given 30 days to submit comments.
