DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Workforce Investment Act of 1998
(WIA); Notice of Incentive Funding
Availability Based on Program Year
(PY) 2007 Performance
AGENCY: Employment and Training
Administration, Labor.
ACTION: Notice.
SUMMARY: The Department of Labor, in
collaboration with the Department of
Education, announces that eleven states
are eligible to apply for Workforce
Investment Act (WIA) (Pub. L. 105–220,
29 U.S.C. 2801 et seq.) incentive grant
awards authorized by section 503 of the
WIA.
DATES: The eleven eligible states must
submit their applications for incentive
funding to the Department of Labor by
June 25, 2009.
ADDRESSEE: Submit applications to the
Employment and Training
Administration, Office of Performance
and Technology, 200 Constitution

performance.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Eleven
(11) states (see Appendix) qualify to
receive a share of the $9.7 million
available for incentive grant awards
under WIA section 503. These funds,
which were contributed by the
Department of Education from
appropriations for the Adult Education
and Family Literacy Act, are available
for the eligible states to use through
June 30, 2011, to support innovative
workforce development and education
activities that are authorized under title
IB (Workforce Investment Systems) or
title II (the Adult Education and Family
Literacy Act (AEFLA)) of WIA, 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 adult education (AEFLA).
(Due to the lack of availability of PY
2007 performance data under the Carl D.
Perkins Vocational and Technical
Education Act of 1998 (Perkins III), the
Department of Labor and the
Department of Education did not
consider states’ performance levels
under Perkins in determining incentive
grants eligibility.) The goals included
employment after training and related
services, retention in employment, and
improvements in literacy levels, among
other measures. After review of the
performance data submitted by states to
the Department of Labor and to the
Department of Education, each
Department determined for its
program(s) which states exceeded their
performance levels (the Appendix at the
bottom of this notice lists the
performance 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 amount that each state is
eligible to receive was determined by
the Department of Labor and the
Department of Education, based on the
provisions in WIA section 503(c) (20
U.S.C. 9273(c)), and is proportional to
the total funding received by these
states for WIA title IB and AEFLA
programs.
The states eligible to apply for
incentive grant awards and the amounts
they are eligible to receive are listed in
the following chart:

Funding Availability Based on Program Year (PY) 2007 Performance
AGENCY: Employment and Training Administration, Labor.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Department of Labor, in collaboration with the Department
of Education, announces that eleven states are eligible to apply for
Workforce Investment Act (WIA) (Pub. L. 105-220, 29 U.S.C. 2801 et
seq.) incentive grant awards authorized by section 503 of the WIA.
DATES: The eleven eligible states must submit their applications for
incentive funding to the Department of Labor by June 25, 2009.
ADDRESSEE: Submit applications to the Employment and Training
Administration, Office of Performance and Technology, 200 Constitution

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Eleven (11) states (see Appendix) qualify to
receive a share of the $9.7 million available for incentive grant
awards under WIA section 503. These funds, which were contributed by
the Department of Education from appropriations for the Adult Education
and Family Literacy Act, are available for the eligible states to use
through June 30, 2011, to support innovative workforce development and
education activities that are authorized under title IB (Workforce
Investment Systems) or title II (the Adult Education and Family
Literacy Act (AEFLA)) of WIA, 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 adult education (AEFLA). (Due to the lack of availability of PY
2007 performance data under the Carl D. Perkins Vocational and
Technical Education Act of 1998 (Perkins III), the Department of Labor
and the Department of Education did not consider states' performance
levels under Perkins in determining incentive grants eligibility.) The
goals included employment after training and related services,
retention in employment, and improvements in literacy levels, among
other measures. After review of the performance data submitted by
states to the Department of Labor and to the Department of Education,
each Department determined for its program(s) which states exceeded
their performance levels (the Appendix at the bottom of this notice
lists the performance 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 amount that each state is eligible to receive was determined
by the Department of Labor and the Department of Education, based on
the provisions in WIA section 503(c) (20 U.S.C. 9273(c)), and is
proportional to the total funding received by these states for WIA
title IB and AEFLA programs.
The states eligible to apply for incentive grant awards and the
amounts they are eligible to receive are listed in the following chart:
