Solicitation for Grant Applications
(SGA) Amendment One; State Energy
Sector Partnership (SESP) and
Training Grants
AGENCY: Employment and Training
Administration (ETA, Labor).
ACTION: Notice: Amendment to SGA/
DFA–PY–08–20.
SUMMARY: The Employment and
Training Administration published a
document in the Federal Register on
June 24, 2009, announcing the
availability of funds and solicitation for
grant applications (SGA) for State
Energy Sector Partnership (SESP) and
Training Grants to be awarded through
a competitive process. This notice is the
first amendment to the SGA and
clarifies items related to: (1) Updated
Attachment 1—Counties Impacted by
Automotive-Related Restructuring; (2)
the number of parts to the technical
proposal (Section IV: Application and
Submission Information, Part 2
Technical Proposal); (3) the number of
sub criteria to the Strategy and Project
Work Plan criteria in Section V.A.3); (4)
participants eligible to receive training
(Section III.D.1); and, (5) Section B on
Green Industries and Occupations
(Supplementary Information). The
document is hereby amended.
1. Attachment I—Counties Impacted
by Automotive Restructuring. This
notice replaces ‘‘Attachment I’’ as
referenced on p. 30127–30128, which is
a list of 281 counties impacted by
automotive-related restructuring from
the Center for Automotive Research. In
addition to the 281 counties, an
additional 31 counties have been
included on the list due to an
inadvertent omission on the original
list. This is the complete and final list
and there will be no further changes to
this list. Accordingly, the ‘‘old’’
Attachment I on p. 30127–30128 is
being replaced by the ‘‘new’’
Attachment I below:

AGENCY: Employment and Training
Administration (ETA), Labor.
ACTION: Notice: Amendment to SGA/
DFA–PY 08–18.
SUMMARY: The Employment and
Training Administration published a
document in the Federal Register on
June 24, 2009, announcing the
availability of funds and solicitation for
grant applications (SGA) for Energy
Training Partnerships awarded through
a competitive process. This amendment
to the SGA clarifies items related to: (1)
Eligible applicants (Section III.A); (2)
Statewide and local entities that are
eligible applicants (Section III.A.2); (3)
participants eligible to receive training
(Section III.E.1); (4) correction to
formatting of ‘‘Other Eligibility
Requirements’’ section; (5) Attachment
1 for the list of auto-impacted

information in Section B ‘‘Green
Industries and Occupations.’’ The
document is hereby amended.
1. Section III.A., ‘‘Eligible
Applicants’’: (page 30154) Is revised to
confirm that Local Workforce
Investment Boards and One Stop Career
Centers are not eligible applicants,
confirm that the applicant in the
proposed project must be clearly
designated, and provide information on
the definition of non-profit entities. In
the SGA, the language designated below
as ‘‘old text’’ is replaced with the
language designated as ‘‘new text,’’ as
follows:
VerDate Nov<24>2008

Jkt 217001
a. Old Text—‘‘Under this
announcement, eligible applicants are
private nonprofit organizations that
must apply under one of two categories:
(1) National labor-management
organizations with local networks; or (2)
Statewide or local nonprofit
partnerships. All applicants are
expected to work in conjunction with
partnerships consisting of labor
organizations, employers, Workforce
Investment Boards (WIBs), and other
organizations as defined in section
171(e)(2)(B)(ii) of WIA. These categories
create two applicant pools, which will
compete separately for funding under
this SGA.’’
b. New Text—‘‘Under this
announcement, eligible applicants are
private nonprofit organizations that
must apply under one of two categories:
(1) National labor-management
organizations with local networks; or (2)
Statewide or local nonprofit
partnerships. All applicants are
expected to work in conjunction with
partnerships consisting of labor
organizations, employers, Workforce
Investment Boards, and other
organizations as defined in section
171(e)(2)(B)(ii) of WIA. While the SGA
indicates required and suggested
partners, the proposal must designate a
lead applicant. These categories create
two applicant pools, which will
compete separately for funding under
this SGA. Local Workforce Investment
Boards and One Stop Career Centers are
not eligible applicants under this SGA.
A private nonprofit entity is an
organization that is legally organized for
the purposes of tax exempt nonprofit
status under the Internal Revenue
Service (IRS), or is actively pursuing IRS
nonprofit tax exempt status.’’
2. Section III.A.2.,’’Statewide and
Local Entities’’: (page 30154) Is revised
to confirm that eligible applicants for
the State and local category are
Statewide or local private nonprofit
entities, including private nonprofit
entities that serve American Indian
reservations. In the SGA, the language
designated below as ‘‘old text’’ is
replaced with the language designated
as ‘‘new text,’’ as follows:
a. Old Text—‘‘Statewide and Local
Entities: Applicants for the State and
local category are local or Statewide
non-profit entities with a joint
partnership of labor organizations,
employers or industry organizations,
Workforce Investment Boards and One
Stop Career Centers. A Statewide or
local entity that receives an award
under category 2 of this SGA may not
receive sub-grant or sub-contract
funding from a national organization
that receives an award under category 1.

For the purposes of this SGA, the term
‘State’ means each of the 50 States of the
United States, the District of Columbia,
and U.S. territories as defined in Section
VI.B.’’
b. New Text—‘‘Statewide and Local
Entities: Applicants for the State and
local category are Statewide or local
private nonprofit entities, including
private nonprofit entities that serve
American Indian reservations, with a
joint partnership of labor organizations,
employers or industry organizations,
Workforce Investment Boards and One
Stop Career Centers. A Statewide or
local private nonprofit entity that
receives an award under category 2 of
this SGA may not receive sub-grant or
sub-contract funding from a national
organization that receives an award
under category 1. For the purposes of
this SGA, the term ‘State’ means each of
the 50 States of the United States, the
District of Columbia, and U.S. territories
as defined in Section VI.B.’’
3. Section III.E.1, ‘‘Participants
Eligible to Receive Training’’: (page
30156) Is revised to clarify that
individuals with disabilities are among
the populations that can be served
through grants awarded through this
SGA by replacing the language
designated below as ‘‘old text’’ with the
language designated as ‘‘new text,’’ as
follows:
a. Old Text—‘‘Projects may also serve
individuals with a criminal record; and
populations that have not traditionally
been employed in construction and
skilled trade occupations, such as
women and minorities.’’
b. New Text—‘‘Projects may also
serve other types of individuals that
may not be a part of the categories
above, such as: individuals with a
criminal record; individuals with
disabilities; and populations that have
not traditionally been employed in
construction and skilled trade
occupations, such as women and
minorities.’’
4. Correction to formatting of ‘‘Other
Eligibility Requirements’’ section: The
‘‘Other Eligibility Requirements’’
section of the SGA is currently listed as
section ‘‘D. Other Eligibility
Requirements’’ on p. 30155. The section
was formatted incorrectly, and the SGA
is revised so that the ‘‘Other Eligibility
Requirements’’ section is now listed as
‘‘C. Other Eligibility Requirements’’
instead of ‘‘D. Other Eligibility
Requirements’’. With this correction,
‘‘Other Eligibility Requirements’’ is now
correctly listed as Section III.C. of the
SGA.

Energy Sector Partnership (SESP) and Training Grants
AGENCY: Employment and Training Administration (ETA, Labor).
ACTION: Notice: Amendment to SGA/DFA-PY-08-20.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Employment and Training Administration published a
document in the Federal Register on June 24, 2009, announcing the
availability of funds and solicitation for grant applications (SGA) for
State Energy Sector Partnership (SESP) and Training Grants to be
awarded through a competitive process. This notice is the first
amendment to the SGA and clarifies items related to: (1) Updated
Attachment 1--Counties Impacted by Automotive-Related Restructuring;
(2) the number of parts to the technical proposal (Section IV:
Application and Submission Information, Part 2 Technical Proposal); (3)
the number of sub criteria to the Strategy and Project Work Plan
criteria in Section V.A.3); (4) participants eligible to receive
training (Section III.D.1); and, (5) Section B on Green Industries and
Occupations (Supplementary Information). The document is hereby
amended.
1. Attachment I--Counties Impacted by Automotive Restructuring.
This notice replaces ``Attachment I'' as referenced on p. 30127-30128,
which is a list of 281 counties impacted by automotive-related
restructuring from the Center for Automotive Research. In addition to
the 281 counties, an additional 31 counties have been included on the
list due to an inadvertent omission on the original list. This is the
complete and final list and there will be no further changes to this
list. Accordingly, the ``old'' Attachment I on p. 30127-30128 is being
replaced by the ``new'' Attachment I below:
