Announcement Regarding States
Triggering ‘‘off’’ of Tiers Three and

Employment and Training
Administration, Labor.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
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://

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.
Information for Claimants
The duration of benefits payable in
the EUC program, and the terms and
conditions under which they are
payable, are governed by Public Laws
110–252, 110–449, 111–5, 111–92, 111–

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title of Collection: Evaluation of the
National Science Foundation’s Math
and Science Partnership (MSP) Program.
OMB Control No.: 3145–0200.
Abstract: The National Science
Foundation (NSF) requests a three-year
clearance for an evaluation of the Math
and Science Partnership (MSP) program.
The MSP program is a research and
development (R&D) effort funded by the
NSF to integrate the work of higher
education, especially disciplinary
faculty in math, sciences, and
engineering, with that of K–12
communities in order to strengthen and
reform math and science education. The
program is authorized under the NSF
Authorization Act of 2002 (Pub. L. 107–
368), December 19, 2002 (to authorize
appropriations for FY 2003–07 and ‘‘for
other purposes’’). MSP is among 11
programs specifically authorized by the
legislation (Sec. 11 authorizes a 12th
program, the Centers for Research on
Mathematics and Science Learning and
Education Improvement).
NSF’s MSP program portfolio consists
of about 80 awards or projects (e.g.
design grants, standard or continuing
grants or cooperative agreements) that
initially were funded between 2002 and
2004. The type of awards subject to
study and data collection, however,
include only the comprehensive MSPs,
targeted MSPs and teacher institute
partnerships, or a universe of
approximately 65 discrete projects.
The evaluation’s data collection and
analysis activities will be conducted by
COSMOS Corporation, Bethesda, MD, in
partnership with Brown University via
a contract administered by the NSF’s
Division of Research, Evaluation and
Communication (REC). This evaluation
involves both quantitative and
qualitative data, collected from multiple
sources using multiple methods,
including secondary analyses of projectrelated materials such as existing
databases (MSP Management
Information System—OMB 3145–0199),
annual reports, Web sites, and relevant
