AGENCY: Employment and Training Administration, Labor.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Announcement regarding states triggering ``off'' of Tiers 
Three and Four of the Emergency Unemployment Compensation (EUC08) 
program.
    Public Law 111-205 extended provisions in Public Law 111-92 which 
amended prior laws to create a Third and Fourth Tier of benefits within 
the EUC08 program for qualified unemployed workers claiming benefits in 
high unemployment states. The Department of Labor produces a trigger 
notice indicating which states qualify for EUC08 benefits within Tiers 
Three and Four and provides the beginning and ending dates of payable 
periods for each qualifying state. The trigger notice covering state 
eligibility for the EUC08 program can be found at: https://ows.doleta.gov/unemploy/claims_arch.asp. A new trigger notice is 
posted at this location each week that the program is in effect.
    Based on data published September 21, 2010 by the Bureau of Labor 
Statistics, the following trigger changes have occurred for states in 
the EUC08 program:
     New Hampshire's three month average seasonally-adjusted 
TUR for August declined to 5.8%, below the 6.0% threshold to remain 
``on'' Tier Three, hence the state triggered off of Tier Three. As a 
result, New Hampshire concluded its payable period in the third tier of 
the EUC program on October 16, 2010. Eligibility for claimants in New 
Hampshire have been reduced from a maximum potential entitlement of 47 
weeks to a maximum potential entitlement of 34 weeks in the EUC 
program.
     Delaware's three month average seasonally-adjusted TUR for 
August 2010 declined to 8.4%, below the 8.5% threshold to remain ``on'' 
Tier Four hence the state has triggered off of Tier Four. As a result, 
Delaware concluded its payable period in the Fourth tier of the EUC 
program on October 16, 2010. Eligibility for claimants in Delaware has 
been reduced from a maximum potential entitlement of 53 weeks to a 
maximum potential entitlement of 47 weeks in the EUC program.
