4. Job Corps’ Commitment to Diversity
Job Corps currently serves a diverse
student population and remains
committed to serving disadvantaged
youth from all backgrounds. In making
final closure decisions under any of the
three criteria, we will consider whether
a center’s closure would result in a
significant reduction in student
diversity within the overall Job Corps
system.

Closure

IV. The Process for Closing Job Corps
Centers, as Outlined in the Workforce
Innovation and Opportunity Act
(WIOA)
The Department’s process for closing
Job Corps centers will follow the
requirements of section 159(j) of the
WIOA, which include the following:
• The proposed decision to close a
particular center is announced in
advance to the general public through
publication in the Federal Register or
other appropriate means;
• A reasonable comment period, not
to exceed 30 days, is established for
interested individuals to submit written
comments to the Secretary; and
• The Member of Congress who
represents the district in which such
center is located is notified within a

Based on the performance-based
criteria, and after applying the
additional considerations described
above, the Department proposes to close
the Ouachita Job Corps Center in Royal,
Arkansas. As noted above, the two new
criteria did not factor into this decision.
In applying the performance-based
criteria, the Department first calculated
the five-year OMS performance level,
the five-year OBS, and the five-year FCI
and then calculated the Overall Rating
for Primary Selection Factors, as
described above, using data from PY
2010–2014. The Ouachita Job Corps
Center in received the lowest Overall
Rating for Primary Selection Factors
and, therefore, the lowest ranking.
After ranking the centers based on the
primary criteria, the Department then
applied the additional considerations.
The Department determined that these
considerations did not preclude closure
of the Ouachita Job Corps Center. The
Department is requesting public
comments on the selection of the
Ouachita Job Corps Center for closure.
The Department will implement the
closure process pursuant to the center
closure requirements outlined in the
WIOA at section 159(j) and as stipulated
in the DOL/USDA Interagency
Agreement.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
reasonable period of time in advance of
any final decision to close the center.
This Notice serves as the public
announcement of the decision to close
the Ouachita Job Corps Center. The
Department is providing a 30-day period
for interested individuals to submit
written comments on the proposed
decision to close these centers.
