SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Reintegration of Ex-Offenders (RExO),
Adult Program grantees provide selected
standardized information pertaining to
customers in the programs for the
purposes of general program oversight,
evaluation, and performance
assessment. The ETA provides all
grantees with a management
information system to use for collecting
participant data and for preparing and
submitting the required quarterly
reports. This ICR has been identified as
a revision, because the BeneChoice
information collection is cancelled,
along with ETA–9140A, and the ICR has
been renamed. The BeneChoice grant is
now concluded.
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. A Federal agency generally
cannot conduct or sponsor a collection
of information, and the public is
generally not required to respond to an
information collection, unless it is
approved by the OMB under the PRA
and displays a currently valid OMB
Control Number. In addition,
notwithstanding any other provisions of
law, no person shall generally be subject
to penalty for failing to comply with a
collection of information if the
collection of information does not
display a valid OMB Control Number.
See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The
DOL obtains OMB approval for this
information collection under OMB
Control Number 1205–0455. The current
OMB approval is scheduled to expire on
March 31, 2012; however, it should be
noted that existing information
collection requirements submitted to the
OMB receive a month-to-month
extension while they undergo review.
For additional information, see the
related notice published in the Federal
Register on November 4, 2011 (76 FR
68509).
Interested parties are encouraged to
send comments to the OMB, Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs at
the address shown in the ADDRESSES
section within 30 days of publication of
this notice in the Federal Register. In
order to help ensure appropriate
consideration, comments should
reference OMB Control Number 1205–
0455. The OMB is particularly
interested in comments that:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 226001
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
The
Department of Labor (Department) is
announcing WIA allotments for PY 2012
for Youth Activities, Adults and
Dislocated Worker Activities, WagnerPeyser Act PY 2012 final allotments and
FY 2012 Workforce Information Grant
allotments. This notice provides
information on the amount of funds
available during PY 2012 to States with
an approved WIA Title I and WagnerPeyser Act Strategic Plan for PY 2012,
and information regarding allotments to
the outlying areas.
The allotments are based on the funds
appropriated in the Consolidated
Appropriations Act, 2012, Public Law
112–74, Division F, signed December
23, 2011. The Act requires an acrossthe-board rescission of 0.189 percent to
all Federal Fiscal Year (FY) 2012
discretionary program funding.
Included below are tables listing the PY
2012 allotments for programs under
WIA Title I Youth Activities (Table A),
Adult and Dislocated Workers
Employment and Training Activities
(Tables B and C, respectively), and the
PY 2012 Wagner-Peyser Act final
allotments (Table D). Also attached is
the PY 2012 Workforce Information
Grant table (Table E).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
VerDate Mar<15>2010
17:10 Mar 15, 2012
Jkt 226001
Youth Activities Allotments
PY 2012 Youth Activities funds under
WIA total $824,353,022 (including the
0.189 percent rescission). Table A
includes a breakdown of the Youth
Activities program allotments for PY
2012 and provides a comparison of
these allotments to PY 2011 Youth
Activities allotments for all States, and
outlying areas. Before determining the
amount available for States, the total
funding available for the outlying areas
was reserved at 0.25 percent of the full
amount appropriated for Youth
Activities (after the 0.189 percent
rescission). On December 17, 2003,
Public Law 108–188, the Compact of
Free Association Amendments Act of
2003 (‘‘the Compact’’), was signed. The
Compact provided for consolidation of
WIA Title I funding, for the Marshall
Islands and Micronesia into
supplemental grants provided from the
Department of Education’s
appropriation. See 48 USC
1921d(f)(1)(B)(iii). The Compact also
specified that the Republic of Palau
remained eligible for WIA Title I
funding. See 48 USC 1921d(f)(1)(B)(ix).
The Consolidated Appropriations Act,
2012 (in the Department of Education’s
General Provisions at Section 306 of
Title III, Division F, Pub. L. 112–74)
amended the Compact to extend the
availability of WIA Title I funding to
Palau through FY 2012.
The methodology for distributing
funds to all outlying areas is not
specified by WIA, but is at the
Secretary’s discretion. The methodology
used is the same as used since PY 2000,
i.e., funds are distributed among the
remaining areas by formula based on
relative share of number of unemployed,
a 90 percent hold-harmless of the prior
year share, a $75,000 minimum, and a
130 percent stop-gain of the prior year
share. As in PY 2011, data for the
relative share calculation in the PY 2012
formula were from 2000 Census data for
all outlying areas, obtained from the
Bureau of the Census Bureau (Bureau)
and are based on 2000 Census surveys
for those areas conducted either by the
Bureau or the outlying areas under the
guidance of the Bureau.
The total amount available for Native
Americans is 1.5 percent of the total
amount for Youth Activities, in
accordance with WIA section 127. After
determining the amount for the outlying
areas and Native Americans, the amount
available for allotment to the States for
PY 2012 is $809,926,845. This total
amount was below the required $1
billion threshold specified in section
127(b)(1)(C)(iv)(IV); therefore, as in PY
2011, the WIA additional minimum
PO 00000
Frm 00089
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

provisions were not applied, and,
instead, as required by WIA, the Job
Training Partnership Act (JTPA) section
202(a)(3) (as amended by section 701 of
the Job Training Reform Amendments of
1992) minimums of 90 percent holdharmless of the prior year allotment
percentage and 0.25 percent State
minimum floor were used. Also, as
required by WIA, the provision applying
a 130 percent stop-gain of the prior year
allotment percentage was used. The
three formula factors required in WIA
use the following data for the PY 2012
allotments:
(1) Number of unemployed for Areas
of Substantial Unemployment (ASUs)
averages for the 12-month period, July
2010 through June 2011;
(2) Number of excess unemployed
individuals or the ASU excess
(depending on which is higher) averages
for the same 12-month period used for
ASU unemployed data; and
(3) Number of economically
disadvantaged youth (age 16 to 21,
excluding college students and military)
from special 2000 Census calculations.
Beginning with the PY 2006
allotments, States identify the ASU data
for the PY 2012 allotments using special
2000 Census data based on households,
obtained under Employment and
Training Administration contract with
the Census Bureau and provided to
States by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
It should be noted that the most
current Census, conducted in 2010, did
not include the long form survey which
ETA would have used to update the
data from the 2000 Census. Instead, ETA
will continue to work with the Census
Bureau over the next years to use data
from the American Community Survey
(ACS). ETA will alert States when new
data are available for use in within-State
allocation formulas; however, updated
data will not be available for use with
PY 2012 funding.
Adult Employment and Training
Activities Allotments
The total Adult Employment and
Training Activities appropriation is
$770,810,637 (including the 0.189
percent rescission). Table B shows the
PY 2012 Adult Employment and
Training Activities allotments and
comparison to PY 2011 allotments by
State. Like the Youth Activities
program, the total available for the
outlying areas was reserved at 0.25
percent of the full amount appropriated
for Adult Activities. As discussed in the
Youth Activities section above, WIA
funding for the Marshall Islands and
Micronesia is no longer provided;
instead, funding is provided in the
Department of Education’s
E:\FR\FM\16MRN1.SGM
16MRN1
15806
Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 52 / Friday, March 16, 2012 / Notices
appropriation. The Adult Activities
funds for grants to the remaining
outlying areas, for which the
distribution methodology is at the
Secretary’s discretion, were distributed
among the areas by the same principles,
formula and data as used for outlying
areas for Youth Activities. After
determining the amount for the outlying
areas, the amount available for
allotments to the States is $768,883,610.
Like the Youth Activities program, the
WIA minimum provisions were not
applied for the PY 2012 allotments
because the total amount available for
the States was below the $960 million
threshold required for Adult Activities
in section 132(b)(1)(B)(iv)(IV). Instead,
as required by WIA, the minimum
allotments were calculated using the
JTPA section 202(a)(3) (as amended by
section 701 of the Job Training Reform
Amendments of 1992) minimums of 90
percent hold-harmless of the prior year
allotment percentage and 0.25 percent
State minimum floor. Also, like the
Youth Activities program, a provision
applying a 130 percent stop-gain of the
prior year allotment percentage was
used. The three formula factors use the
same data as used for the PY 2012
Youth Activities formula, except that
data from the 2000 Census for the
number of economically disadvantaged
adults (age 22 to 72, excluding college
students and military) were used.
As noted above, ETA will alert States
when new census data are available for
use in within-State allocation formulas;
however, updated data will not be
available for use with PY 2012 funding.
Dislocated Worker Employment and
Training Activities Allotments
The total Dislocated Worker
appropriation is $1,232,217,892
(including the 0.189 rescission). The
total appropriation includes formula
funds for the States, while the National
Reserve is used for National Emergency
Grants, technical assistance and
training, demonstration projects, and
the outlying areas’ Dislocated Worker
allotments. Table C shows the PY 2012
Dislocated Worker Activities fund
allotments by State. Like the Youth and
Adult Activities programs, the total
available for the outlying areas was
reserved at 0.25 percent of the full
amount appropriated for Dislocated
Worker Activities. WIA funding for the
Marshall Islands and Micronesia is no
longer provided, as discussed above.
The Dislocated Worker Activities funds
for grants to the remaining outlying
areas, for which the distribution
methodology is at the Secretary’s
discretion, were distributed by the same
pro rata share as the areas received for
the PY 2012 WIA Adult Activities
program, the same methodology used in
PY 2011. For the State distribution of
formula funds, the three formula factors
required in WIA use the following data
for the PY 2012 allotments:
(1) Number of unemployed, averages
for the 12-month period, October 2010
through September 2011;
(2) Number of excess unemployed,
averages for the 12-month period,
October 2010 through September 2011;
and
(3) Number of long-term unemployed,
averages for the 12-month period,
October 2010 through September 2011.
Since the Dislocated Worker
Activities formula has no floor amount
or hold-harmless provisions, funding
changes for States directly reflect the
impact of changes in the number of
unemployed.
Wagner-Peyser Act ES Final Allotments
The appropriated level for PY 2012
for ES grants totals $700,841,900
(including the 0.189 rescission). After
determining the funding for outlying
areas, allotments to States were
calculated using the formula set forth at
section 6 of the Wagner-Peyser Act (29
U.S.C. 49e). PY 2012 formula allotments
were based on each state’s share of
calendar year 2011 monthly averages of
the civilian labor force (CLF) and
unemployment. The Secretary is
required to set aside up to three percent
of the total available funds to assure that
each State will have sufficient resources
to maintain statewide ES activities, as
required under section 6(b)(4) of the
Wagner-Peyser Act. In accordance with
this provision, the three percent setaside funds are included in the total
allotment. The set-aside funds were
distributed in two steps to States that
have lost in relative share of resources
from the previous year. In Step 1, States
that have a CLF below one million and
are also below the median CLF density
were maintained at 100 percent of their
relative share of prior year resources.
All remaining set-aside funds were
distributed on a pro-rata basis in Step 2
to all other States losing in relative
share from the prior year but not
meeting the size and density criteria for
Step 1. The distribution of ES funds
(Table D) includes $699,133,491 for
States, as well as $1,708,409 for outlying
areas.
Under section 7 of the Wagner-Peyser
Act, 10 percent of the total sums allotted
to each State shall be reserved for use
by the Governor to provide performance
incentives for ES offices, services for
groups with special needs, and for the
extra costs of exemplary models for
delivering job services.
Workforce Information Grants
Allotments
Total PY 2012 funding for Workforce
Information Grants allotments to States
is $31,939,520 (after the 0.189 percent
rescission). The allotment figures for
each State are listed in Table E. Funds
are distributed by administrative
formula, with a reserve of $176,655 for
Guam and the Virgin Islands. The
remaining funds are distributed to the
States with 40 percent distributed
equally to all States and 60 percent
distributed based on each State’s share
of CLF for the 12 months ending
September 2011.

allotments for Employment Service (ES) activities under the Wagner-
Peyser Act for PY 2012 and Workforce Information Grants allotments for
PY 2012. Allotments for the Work Opportunity Tax Credits will be

WIA allotments for States and the State final allotments for the
Wagner-Peyser Act are based on formulas defined in their respective
statutes. The WIA allotments for the outlying areas are based on a
formula determined by the Secretary of Labor (Secretary). As required
by WIA section 182(d), on February 17, 2000, a notice of the
discretionary formula for allocating PY 2000 funds for the outlying
areas (American Samoa, Guam, Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Northern
Marianas, Palau, and the Virgin Islands) was published in the Federal
Register at 65 FR 8236 (February 17, 2000). The rationale for the
formula and methodology was fully explained in the February 17, 2000,
Federal Register notice. The formula for PY 2012 is the same as used
for PY 2000 and is described in the section on Youth Activities program
allotments. Comments are invited on the formula used to allot funds to
the outlying areas.
DATES: Comments on the formula used to allot funds to the outlying
areas must be received April 16, 2012.

allotments (Table D). Also attached is the PY 2012 Workforce
Information Grant table (Table E).
Youth Activities Allotments
PY 2012 Youth Activities funds under WIA total $824,353,022
(including the 0.189 percent rescission). Table A includes a breakdown
of the Youth Activities program allotments for PY 2012 and provides a
comparison of these allotments to PY 2011 Youth Activities allotments
for all States, and outlying areas. Before determining the amount
available for States, the total funding available for the outlying
areas was reserved at 0.25 percent of the full amount appropriated for
Youth Activities (after the 0.189 percent rescission). On December 17,
2003, Public Law 108-188, the Compact of Free Association Amendments
Act of 2003 (``the Compact''), was signed. The Compact provided for
consolidation of WIA Title I funding, for the Marshall Islands and
Micronesia into supplemental grants provided from the Department of
Education's appropriation. See 48 USC 1921d(f)(1)(B)(iii). The Compact
also specified that the Republic of Palau remained eligible for WIA
Title I funding. See 48 USC 1921d(f)(1)(B)(ix). The Consolidated
Appropriations Act, 2012 (in the Department of Education's General
Provisions at Section 306 of Title III, Division F, Pub. L. 112-74)
amended the Compact to extend the availability of WIA Title I funding
to Palau through FY 2012.
The methodology for distributing funds to all outlying areas is not
specified by WIA, but is at the Secretary's discretion. The methodology
used is the same as used since PY 2000, i.e., funds are distributed
among the remaining areas by formula based on relative share of number
of unemployed, a 90 percent hold-harmless of the prior year share, a
$75,000 minimum, and a 130 percent stop-gain of the prior year share.
As in PY 2011, data for the relative share calculation in the PY 2012
formula were from 2000 Census data for all outlying areas, obtained
from the Bureau of the Census Bureau (Bureau) and are based on 2000
Census surveys for those areas conducted either by the Bureau or the
outlying areas under the guidance of the Bureau.
The total amount available for Native Americans is 1.5 percent of
the total amount for Youth Activities, in accordance with WIA section
127. After determining the amount for the outlying areas and Native
Americans, the amount available for allotment to the States for PY 2012
is $809,926,845. This total amount was below the required $1 billion
threshold specified in section 127(b)(1)(C)(iv)(IV); therefore, as in
PY 2011, the WIA additional minimum provisions were not applied, and,
instead, as required by WIA, the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA)
section 202(a)(3) (as amended by section 701 of the Job Training Reform
Amendments of 1992) minimums of 90 percent hold-harmless of the prior
year allotment percentage and 0.25 percent State minimum floor were
used. Also, as required by WIA, the provision applying a 130 percent
stop-gain of the prior year allotment percentage was used. The three
formula factors required in WIA use the following data for the PY 2012
allotments:
(1) Number of unemployed for Areas of Substantial Unemployment
(ASUs) averages for the 12-month period, July 2010 through June 2011;
(2) Number of excess unemployed individuals or the ASU excess
(depending on which is higher) averages for the same 12-month period
used for ASU unemployed data; and
(3) Number of economically disadvantaged youth (age 16 to 21,
excluding college students and military) from special 2000 Census
calculations.
Beginning with the PY 2006 allotments, States identify the ASU data
for the PY 2012 allotments using special 2000 Census data based on
households, obtained under Employment and Training Administration
contract with the Census Bureau and provided to States by the Bureau of
Labor Statistics.
It should be noted that the most current Census, conducted in 2010,
did not include the long form survey which ETA would have used to
update the data from the 2000 Census. Instead, ETA will continue to
work with the Census Bureau over the next years to use data from the
American Community Survey (ACS). ETA will alert States when new data
are available for use in within-State allocation formulas; however,
updated data will not be available for use with PY 2012 funding.
Adult Employment and Training Activities Allotments
The total Adult Employment and Training Activities appropriation is
$770,810,637 (including the 0.189 percent rescission). Table B shows
the PY 2012 Adult Employment and Training Activities allotments and
comparison to PY 2011 allotments by State. Like the Youth Activities
program, the total available for the outlying areas was reserved at
0.25 percent of the full amount appropriated for Adult Activities. As
discussed in the Youth Activities section above, WIA funding for the
Marshall Islands and Micronesia is no longer provided; instead, funding
is provided in the Department of Education's
[[Page 15806]]
appropriation. The Adult Activities funds for grants to the remaining
outlying areas, for which the distribution methodology is at the
Secretary's discretion, were distributed among the areas by the same
principles, formula and data as used for outlying areas for Youth
Activities. After determining the amount for the outlying areas, the
amount available for allotments to the States is $768,883,610. Like the
Youth Activities program, the WIA minimum provisions were not applied
for the PY 2012 allotments because the total amount available for the
States was below the $960 million threshold required for Adult
Activities in section 132(b)(1)(B)(iv)(IV). Instead, as required by
WIA, the minimum allotments were calculated using the JTPA section
202(a)(3) (as amended by section 701 of the Job Training Reform
Amendments of 1992) minimums of 90 percent hold-harmless of the prior
year allotment percentage and 0.25 percent State minimum floor. Also,
like the Youth Activities program, a provision applying a 130 percent
stop-gain of the prior year allotment percentage was used. The three
formula factors use the same data as used for the PY 2012 Youth
Activities formula, except that data from the 2000 Census for the
number of economically disadvantaged adults (age 22 to 72, excluding
college students and military) were used.
As noted above, ETA will alert States when new census data are
available for use in within-State allocation formulas; however, updated
data will not be available for use with PY 2012 funding.
Dislocated Worker Employment and Training Activities Allotments
The total Dislocated Worker appropriation is $1,232,217,892
(including the 0.189 rescission). The total appropriation includes
formula funds for the States, while the National Reserve is used for
National Emergency Grants, technical assistance and training,
demonstration projects, and the outlying areas' Dislocated Worker
allotments. Table C shows the PY 2012 Dislocated Worker Activities fund
allotments by State. Like the Youth and Adult Activities programs, the
total available for the outlying areas was reserved at 0.25 percent of
the full amount appropriated for Dislocated Worker Activities. WIA
funding for the Marshall Islands and Micronesia is no longer provided,
as discussed above. The Dislocated Worker Activities funds for grants
to the remaining outlying areas, for which the distribution methodology
is at the Secretary's discretion, were distributed by the same pro rata
share as the areas received for the PY 2012 WIA Adult Activities
program, the same methodology used in PY 2011. For the State
distribution of formula funds, the three formula factors required in
WIA use the following data for the PY 2012 allotments:
(1) Number of unemployed, averages for the 12-month period, October
2010 through September 2011;
(2) Number of excess unemployed, averages for the 12-month period,
October 2010 through September 2011; and
(3) Number of long-term unemployed, averages for the 12-month
period, October 2010 through September 2011.
Since the Dislocated Worker Activities formula has no floor amount
or hold-harmless provisions, funding changes for States directly
reflect the impact of changes in the number of unemployed.
Wagner-Peyser Act ES Final Allotments
The appropriated level for PY 2012 for ES grants totals
$700,841,900 (including the 0.189 rescission). After determining the
funding for outlying areas, allotments to States were calculated using
the formula set forth at section 6 of the Wagner-Peyser Act (29 U.S.C.
49e). PY 2012 formula allotments were based on each state's share of
calendar year 2011 monthly averages of the civilian labor force (CLF)
and unemployment. The Secretary is required to set aside up to three
percent of the total available funds to assure that each State will
have sufficient resources to maintain statewide ES activities, as
required under section 6(b)(4) of the Wagner-Peyser Act. In accordance
with this provision, the three percent set-aside funds are included in
the total allotment. The set-aside funds were distributed in two steps
to States that have lost in relative share of resources from the
previous year. In Step 1, States that have a CLF below one million and
are also below the median CLF density were maintained at 100 percent of
their relative share of prior year resources. All remaining set-aside
funds were distributed on a pro-rata basis in Step 2 to all other
States losing in relative share from the prior year but not meeting the
size and density criteria for Step 1. The distribution of ES funds
(Table D) includes $699,133,491 for States, as well as $1,708,409 for
outlying areas.
Under section 7 of the Wagner-Peyser Act, 10 percent of the total
sums allotted to each State shall be reserved for use by the Governor
to provide performance incentives for ES offices, services for groups
with special needs, and for the extra costs of exemplary models for
delivering job services.
Workforce Information Grants Allotments
Total PY 2012 funding for Workforce Information Grants allotments
to States is $31,939,520 (after the 0.189 percent rescission). The
allotment figures for each State are listed in Table E. Funds are
distributed by administrative formula, with a reserve of $176,655 for
Guam and the Virgin Islands. The remaining funds are distributed to the
States with 40 percent distributed equally to all States and 60 percent
distributed based on each State's share of CLF for the 12 months ending
September 2011.
