ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
This notice announces
allotments for PY 2016 for WIOA Title
I Youth, Adults and Dislocated Worker
Activities programs; final allotments for
Employment Service (ES) activities
under the Wagner-Peyser Act for PY
2016 and Workforce Information Grants
allotments for PY 2016.
WIOA allotments for States and the
State final allotments for the WagnerPeyser Act are based on formulas
defined in their respective statutes.
WIOA requires allotments for the
outlying areas to be competitively based
rather than based on a formula
determined by the Secretary of Labor
(Secretary) as occurred under the
Workforce Investment Act (WIA). For
PY 2016, the Consolidated
Appropriations Act, 2016 waives the
competition requirement, and the
Secretary is using the discretionary
formula rationale and methodology for
allocating PY 2016 funds for the
outlying areas (American Samoa, Guam,
the Commonwealth of the Northern
Mariana Islands, the Republic of Palau,
SUMMARY:

and the United States Virgin Islands)
that was published in the Federal
Register at 65 FR 8236 (Feb. 17, 2000).
WIOA specifically included the
Republic of Palau as an outlying area,
except during any period for which the
Secretary of Labor and the Secretary of
Education determine that a Compact of
Free Association is in effect and
contains provisions for training and
education assistance prohibiting the
assistance provided under WIOA; no
such determinations prohibiting
assistance have been made. The formula
that the Department of Labor
(Department) used for PY 2016 is the
same formula used in PY 2015 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 by May 18, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Department is announcing WIOA
allotments for PY 2016 for Youth
Activities, Adults and Dislocated
Worker Activities, Wagner-Peyser Act
PY 2016 final allotments, and PY 2016
Workforce Information Grant
allotments. This notice provides
information on the amount of funds
available during PY 2016 to States with
an approved WIOA Title I and WagnerPeyser Act Strategic Plan for PY 2016,
and information regarding allotments to
the outlying areas.
On December 18, 2015, the
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2016,
Public Law 114–113 was signed into
law (‘‘the Act’’). The Act, Division H,
Title I, Section 107 of the Act allows the
Secretary of Labor (Secretary) to set
aside up to 0.75 percent of most
operating funds for evaluations. The
evaluation provision is consistent with
the Federal government’s priority on
evidence-based policy and programming
and provides important opportunities to
expand evaluations and demonstrations
in the Department to build solid
evidence about what works best. In the
past, funds for ETA evaluations and
demonstrations were separately
appropriated and managed by ETA.
That separate authority has been
replaced by the set aside provision.
Funds are transferred to the
Department’s Chief Evaluation Office to
implement formal evaluations and
demonstrations in collaboration with
ETA. For 2016, the Secretary set aside
.25 percent of the Training and
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:54 Apr 15, 2016
Jkt 238001
Employment Services (TES) and State
Unemployment Insurance and
Employment Services Operations
(SUIESO) appropriations. ETA spread
the amount to be set aside for each
appropriation among the programs
funded by that appropriation with more
than $100 million in funding. This
includes WIOA Adult, Youth and
Dislocated Worker and Wagner-Peyser
Employment Service program budgets.
We also have attached tables listing
the PY 2016 allotments for programs
under WIOA Title I Youth Activities
(Table A), Adult and Dislocated
Workers Employment and Training
Activities (Tables B and C, respectively),
and the PY 2016 Wagner-Peyser Act
final allotments (Table D). We also have
attached the PY 2016 Workforce
Information Grant table (Table E).
Youth Activities Allotments. The
appropriated level for PY 2016 for
WIOA Youth Activities totals
$873,416,000. After reducing the
appropriation by $2,485,000 for
evaluations, $870,931,000 is available
for Youth Activities. Table A includes a
breakdown of the Youth Activities
program allotments for PY 2016 and
provides a comparison of these
allotments to PY 2015 Youth Activities
allotments for all States, and outlying
areas. For the Native American Youth
program, the total amount available is
1.5 percent of the total amount for
Youth Activities (after the evaluations
set aside), in accordance with WIOA
section 127. The total funding available
for the outlying areas was reserved at
0.25 percent of the amount appropriated
for Youth Activities (after the
evaluations set aside) after the amount
reserved for Native American Youth (in
accordance with WIOA section
127(b)(1)(B)(i)). On December 17, 2003,
Pub. L. 108–188, the Compact of Free
Association Amendments Act of 2003
(‘‘the Compact’’), was signed into law.
The Compact specified that the
Republic of Palau remained eligible for
WIA Title I funding. See 48 U.S.C.
1921d(f)(1)(B)(ix). WIOA section
512(g)(1) updated the Compact to refer
to WIOA funding. The Consolidated
Appropriations Act, 2016 (Division H,
Title II, Section 306 of Public Law 114–
113) authorized WIOA Title I funding to
Palau through FY 2016.
Under WIA, the Secretary had
discretion for determining the
methodology for distributing funds to
all outlying areas. Under WIOA the
Secretary must disseminate the funds
through a competitive process. For PY
2016, the Consolidated Appropriations
Act, 2016 waives the competition
requirement contained in WIOA section
127(b)(1)(B)(ii), 132(b)(1)(A)(ii), and
PO 00000
Frm 00075
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
22641
132(b)(2)(A)(ii) regarding funding to
outlying areas (e.g., American Samoa,
Guam, the Commonwealth of the
Northern Mariana Islands, the Republic
of Palau, and the United States Virgin
Islands). For PY 2016, the Department
used the same methodology used since
PY 2000 (i.e., we distribute funds among
the outlying areas by formula based on
relative share of the number of
unemployed, a minimum of 90 percent
of the prior year allotment percentage, a
$75,000 minimum, and a 130 percent
stop-gain of the prior year share). For
the relative share calculation in PY
2016, the Department continued to use
the data obtained from the 2010 Census
for American Samoa, Guam, the
Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana
Islands, and the United States Virgin
Islands. For the Republic of Palau, the
Department continued to use data from
Palau’s 2005 Census.
After the Department calculated the
amount for the outlying areas and the
Native American program, it was
determined that the amount available
for PY 2016 allotments to the States is
$855,722,367. This total amount was
below the required $1 billion threshold
specified in WIOA section
127(b)(1)(C)(iv)(IV); therefore, the
Department did not apply the WIOA
additional minimum provisions.
Instead, as required by WIOA, the
Department used the Job Training
Partnership Act (JTPA) (Pub. L. 97–300),
section 262(b)(2) (as amended by section
207 of the Job Training Reform
Amendments of 1992, Pub. L. 102–367)
minimums of 90 percent of the prior
year allotment percentage and 0.25
percent State minimum floor. WIOA
also provides that no State may receive
an allotment that is more than 130
percent of the allotment percentage for
the State for the previous year. The
three data factors required by WIOA for
the PY 2016 Youth Activities State
formula allotments are:
(1) The average number of
unemployed individuals for Areas of
Substantial Unemployment (ASUs) for
the 12-month period, July 2014–June
2015;
(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 in the
workforce and military) from special
tabulations of data from the American
Community Survey (ACS), which the
Department obtained from the Bureau in
2012. The Bureau collected the data
used in the special tabulations for

economically disadvantaged Youth
between January 1, 2006–December 31,
2010.
For purposes of identifying ASUs for
the within-state Youth Activities
allocation formula, States should
continue to use the data made available
by BLS (as described in the Local Area
Unemployment Statistics (LAUS)
Technical Memorandum No. S–15–13).
For purposes of determining the number
of economically disadvantaged Youth
for the statutory within-state allocation
formula, States should continue to use
the special tabulations of ACS data
made available to them in 2013 and
available at https://www.doleta.gov/
budget/disadvantagedYouthAdults.cfm.
See TEGL No. 21–12 for further
information.
Adult Employment and Training
Activities Allotments. The total
appropriated funds for Adult Activities
in PY 2016 is $815,556,000. After
reducing the appropriated amount by
$2,321,000 for evaluations,
$813,235,000 remains for Adult
Activities, of which $811,201,912 is for
States and $2,033,088 is for outlying
areas. Table B shows the PY 2016 Adult
Employment and Training Activities
allotments and a State by State
comparison of the PY 2016 allotments to
PY 2015 allotments.
In accordance with WIOA, the
Department reserved the total available
for the outlying areas at 0.25 percent of
the full amount appropriated for Adult
Activities (after the evaluations set
aside). As discussed in the Youth
Activities section above, in PY 2016 the
Department will distribute the Adult
Activities funding for the outlying areas,
using the same principles, formula and
data as used for outlying areas for Youth
Activities. After determining the
amount for the outlying areas, the
Department used the statutory formula
to distribute the remaining amount
available for allotments to the States.
The Department did not apply the
WIOA minimum provisions for the PY
2016 allotments because the total
amount available for the States was
below the $960 million threshold
required for Adult Activities in WIOA
section 132(b)(1)(B)(iv)(IV). Instead, as
required by WIOA, the Department
calculated minimum allotments using
the JTPA section 202(b)(2) (as amended
by section 202 of the Job Training
Reform Amendments of 1992)
minimums of 90 percent of the prior
year allotment percentage and 0.25
percent State minimum floor. WIOA
also provides that no State may receive
an allotment that is more than 130
percent of the allotment percentage for
the State for the previous year. The
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 238001
three formula data factors for the Adult
Activities program are the same as those
used for the Youth Activities formula,
except the Department used data for the
number of economically disadvantaged
Adults (age 18 to 72, excluding college
students in the workforce and military).
As noted above, updated data for
within-state ASU calculations is
available from the Bureau of Labor
Statistics (BLS), and States should
continue to use the economically
disadvantaged Adults data made
available to States by the Department in
2013.
Dislocated Worker Employment and
Training Activities Allotments. The
amount appropriated for Dislocated
Worker activities in PY 2016 totals
$1,241,719,000. The total appropriation
includes formula funds for the States,
while the National Reserve is used for
National Dislocated Worker Grants,
technical assistance and training,
demonstration projects, and the outlying
areas’ Dislocated Worker allotments.
After reducing the appropriated amount
by $3,533,000 for evaluations, a total of
$1,238,186,000 remains available for
Dislocated Worker activities. The
amount available for outlying areas is
$3,095,465, leaving $217,135,535 for the
National Reserve and a total of
$1,017,955,000 available for States. Like
the Adult program, Table C shows the
PY 2016 Dislocated Worker activities
allotments and a State by State
comparison of the PY 2016 allotments to
PY 2015 allotments.
Like the Adult Activities program, the
Department reserved the total available
for the outlying areas at 0.25 percent of
the full amount appropriated for
Dislocated Worker Activities (after the
evaluations set aside). Similar to Youth
and Adult funds, instead of
competition, in PY 2016 the Department
will use the same pro rata share as the
areas received for the PY 2016 WIOA
Adult Activities program to distribute
the outlying areas’ Dislocated Worker
funds, the same methodology used in
PY 2015. The three data factors required
in WIOA for the PY 2016 Dislocated
Worker State formula allotments are:
(1) Number of unemployed, averages
for the 12-month period, October 2014–
September 2015;
(2) Number of excess unemployed,
averages for the 12-month period,
October 2014–September 2015; and
(3) Number of long-term unemployed,
averages for the 12-month period,
October 2014–September 2015.
In PY 2016, under WIOA the
Dislocated Worker formula adopted
minimum and maximum provisions. No
State may receive an allotment that is
less than 90 percent of the State’s prior
PO 00000
Frm 00076

year allotment percentage or more than
130 percent of the State’s prior year
allotment percentage.
Wagner-Peyser Act ES Final
Allotments. The appropriated level for
PY 2016 for ES grants totals
$680,000,000. After reducing the
appropriated amount by $1,845,000 for
evaluations, a total of $678,155,000
remains available for ES programs. After
determining the funding for outlying
areas, the Department calculated
allotments to States using the formula
set forth at section 6 of the WagnerPeyser Act (29 U.S.C. 49e). The
Department based PY 2016 formula
allotments on each State’s share of
calendar year 2015 monthly averages of
the civilian labor force (CLF) and
unemployment. Section 6(b)(4) of the
Wagner-Peyser Act requires the
Secretary to set aside up to three percent
of the total funds available for ES to
ensure that each State will have
sufficient resources to maintain
statewide ES activities. In accordance
with this provision, the Department
included the three percent set-aside
funds in this total allotment. The
Department distributed the set-aside
funds in two steps to States that have
experienced a reduction in their relative
share of the total resources available this
year from their relative share of the total
resources available 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. ETA calculated the
median CLF density based on CLF data
provided by the BLS for calendar year
2015. All remaining set-aside funds
were distributed on a pro-rata basis in
Step 2 to all other States experiencing
reductions 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 $676,501,894 for States, as well
as $1,653,106 for outlying areas.
Under section 7(a), 90 percent of
funds must be used for labor exchange
services and other career services such
as job search and placement services to
job seekers; appropriate recruitment
services for employers; program
evaluations; developing and providing
labor market and occupational
information; developing management
information systems; and administering
the work test for unemployment
insurance claimants. Under section 7(b)
of the Wagner-Peyser Act, ten 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
E:\FR\FM\18APN1.SGM
18APN1

extra costs of exemplary models for
delivering job services.
Workforce Information Grants
Allotments. Total PY 2016 funding for
Workforce Information Grants
allotments to States is $32,000,000. The
allotment figures for each State are
listed in Table E. Funds are distributed
by administrative formula, with a
reserve of $176,800 for Guam and the
United States Virgin Islands. Guam and
the United States Virgin Islands
allotment amounts are partially based
on CLF data. The Department
22643
distributes the remaining funds 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 2015.

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Employment and Training Administration
Program Year (PY) 2016 Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act
(WIOA) Allotments; PY 2016 Wagner-Peyser Act Final Allotments and PY
2016 Workforce Information Grants
AGENCY: Employment and Training Administration, Labor.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This notice announces allotments for PY 2016 for WIOA Title I
Youth, Adults and Dislocated Worker Activities programs; final
allotments for Employment Service (ES) activities under the Wagner-
Peyser Act for PY 2016 and Workforce Information Grants allotments for
PY 2016.
WIOA allotments for States and the State final allotments for the
Wagner-Peyser Act are based on formulas defined in their respective
statutes. WIOA requires allotments for the outlying areas to be
competitively based rather than based on a formula determined by the
Secretary of Labor (Secretary) as occurred under the Workforce
Investment Act (WIA). For PY 2016, the Consolidated Appropriations Act,
2016 waives the competition requirement, and the Secretary is using the
discretionary formula rationale and methodology for allocating PY 2016
funds for the outlying areas (American Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of
the Northern Mariana Islands, the Republic of Palau, and the United
States Virgin Islands) that was published in the Federal Register at 65
FR 8236 (Feb. 17, 2000). WIOA specifically included the Republic of
Palau as an outlying area, except during any period for which the
Secretary of Labor and the Secretary of Education determine that a
Compact of Free Association is in effect and contains provisions for
training and education assistance prohibiting the assistance provided
under WIOA; no such determinations prohibiting assistance have been
made. The formula that the Department of Labor (Department) used for PY
2016 is the same formula used in PY 2015 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 by May 18, 2016.
ADDRESSES: Submit written comments to the Employment and Training
Administration (ETA), Office of Financial Administration, 200

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department is announcing WIOA allotments
for PY 2016 for Youth Activities, Adults and Dislocated Worker
Activities, Wagner-Peyser Act PY 2016 final allotments, and PY 2016
Workforce Information Grant allotments. This notice provides
information on the amount of funds available during PY 2016 to States
with an approved WIOA Title I and Wagner-Peyser Act Strategic Plan for
PY 2016, and information regarding allotments to the outlying areas.
On December 18, 2015, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2016,
Public Law 114-113 was signed into law (``the Act''). The Act, Division
H, Title I, Section 107 of the Act allows the Secretary of Labor
(Secretary) to set aside up to 0.75 percent of most operating funds for
evaluations. The evaluation provision is consistent with the Federal
government's priority on evidence-based policy and programming and
provides important opportunities to expand evaluations and
demonstrations in the Department to build solid evidence about what
works best. In the past, funds for ETA evaluations and demonstrations
were separately appropriated and managed by ETA. That separate
authority has been replaced by the set aside provision. Funds are
transferred to the Department's Chief Evaluation Office to implement
formal evaluations and demonstrations in collaboration with ETA. For
2016, the Secretary set aside .25 percent of the Training and
Employment Services (TES) and State Unemployment Insurance and
Employment Services Operations (SUIESO) appropriations. ETA spread the
amount to be set aside for each appropriation among the programs funded
by that appropriation with more than $100 million in funding. This
includes WIOA Adult, Youth and Dislocated Worker and Wagner-Peyser
Employment Service program budgets.
We also have attached tables listing the PY 2016 allotments for
programs under WIOA Title I Youth Activities (Table A), Adult and
Dislocated Workers Employment and Training Activities (Tables B and C,
respectively), and the PY 2016 Wagner-Peyser Act final allotments
(Table D). We also have attached the PY 2016 Workforce Information
Grant table (Table E).
Youth Activities Allotments. The appropriated level for PY 2016 for
WIOA Youth Activities totals $873,416,000. After reducing the
appropriation by $2,485,000 for evaluations, $870,931,000 is available
for Youth Activities. Table A includes a breakdown of the Youth
Activities program allotments for PY 2016 and provides a comparison of
these allotments to PY 2015 Youth Activities allotments for all States,
and outlying areas. For the Native American Youth program, the total
amount available is 1.5 percent of the total amount for Youth
Activities (after the evaluations set aside), in accordance with WIOA
section 127. The total funding available for the outlying areas was
reserved at 0.25 percent of the amount appropriated for Youth
Activities (after the evaluations set aside) after the amount reserved
for Native American Youth (in accordance with WIOA section
127(b)(1)(B)(i)). On December 17, 2003, Pub. L. 108-188, the Compact of
Free Association Amendments Act of 2003 (``the Compact''), was signed
into law. The Compact specified that the Republic of Palau remained
eligible for WIA Title I funding. See 48 U.S.C. 1921d(f)(1)(B)(ix).
WIOA section 512(g)(1) updated the Compact to refer to WIOA funding.
The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2016 (Division H, Title II,
Section 306 of Public Law 114-113) authorized WIOA Title I funding to
Palau through FY 2016.
Under WIA, the Secretary had discretion for determining the
methodology for distributing funds to all outlying areas. Under WIOA
the Secretary must disseminate the funds through a competitive process.
For PY 2016, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2016 waives the
competition requirement contained in WIOA section 127(b)(1)(B)(ii),
132(b)(1)(A)(ii), and 132(b)(2)(A)(ii) regarding funding to outlying
areas (e.g., American Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern
Mariana Islands, the Republic of Palau, and the United States Virgin
Islands). For PY 2016, the Department used the same methodology used
since PY 2000 (i.e., we distribute funds among the outlying areas by
formula based on relative share of the number of unemployed, a minimum
of 90 percent of the prior year allotment percentage, a $75,000
minimum, and a 130 percent stop-gain of the prior year share). For the
relative share calculation in PY 2016, the Department continued to use
the data obtained from the 2010 Census for American Samoa, Guam, the
Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and the United States
Virgin Islands. For the Republic of Palau, the Department continued to
use data from Palau's 2005 Census.
After the Department calculated the amount for the outlying areas
and the Native American program, it was determined that the amount
available for PY 2016 allotments to the States is $855,722,367. This
total amount was below the required $1 billion threshold specified in
WIOA section 127(b)(1)(C)(iv)(IV); therefore, the Department did not
apply the WIOA additional minimum provisions. Instead, as required by
WIOA, the Department used the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) (Pub.
L. 97-300), section 262(b)(2) (as amended by section 207 of the Job
Training Reform Amendments of 1992, Pub. L. 102-367) minimums of 90
percent of the prior year allotment percentage and 0.25 percent State
minimum floor. WIOA also provides that no State may receive an
allotment that is more than 130 percent of the allotment percentage for
the State for the previous year. The three data factors required by
WIOA for the PY 2016 Youth Activities State formula allotments are:
(1) The average number of unemployed individuals for Areas of
Substantial Unemployment (ASUs) for the 12-month period, July 2014-June
2015;
(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 in the workforce and military) from special
tabulations of data from the American Community Survey (ACS), which the
Department obtained from the Bureau in 2012. The Bureau collected the
data used in the special tabulations for
[[Page 22642]]
economically disadvantaged Youth between January 1, 2006-December 31,
2010.
For purposes of identifying ASUs for the within-state Youth
Activities allocation formula, States should continue to use the data
made available by BLS (as described in the Local Area Unemployment
Statistics (LAUS) Technical Memorandum No. S-15-13). For purposes of
determining the number of economically disadvantaged Youth for the
statutory within-state allocation formula, States should continue to
use the special tabulations of ACS data made available to them in 2013
and available at https://www.doleta.gov/budget/disadvantagedYouthAdults.cfm.
See TEGL No. 21-12 for further information.
Adult Employment and Training Activities Allotments. The total
appropriated funds for Adult Activities in PY 2016 is $815,556,000.
After reducing the appropriated amount by $2,321,000 for evaluations,
$813,235,000 remains for Adult Activities, of which $811,201,912 is for
States and $2,033,088 is for outlying areas. Table B shows the PY 2016
Adult Employment and Training Activities allotments and a State by
State comparison of the PY 2016 allotments to PY 2015 allotments.
In accordance with WIOA, the Department reserved the total
available for the outlying areas at 0.25 percent of the full amount
appropriated for Adult Activities (after the evaluations set aside). As
discussed in the Youth Activities section above, in PY 2016 the
Department will distribute the Adult Activities funding for the
outlying areas, using the same principles, formula and data as used for
outlying areas for Youth Activities. After determining the amount for
the outlying areas, the Department used the statutory formula to
distribute the remaining amount available for allotments to the States.
The Department did not apply the WIOA minimum provisions for the PY
2016 allotments because the total amount available for the States was
below the $960 million threshold required for Adult Activities in WIOA
section 132(b)(1)(B)(iv)(IV). Instead, as required by WIOA, the
Department calculated minimum allotments using the JTPA section
202(b)(2) (as amended by section 202 of the Job Training Reform
Amendments of 1992) minimums of 90 percent of the prior year allotment
percentage and 0.25 percent State minimum floor. WIOA also provides
that no State may receive an allotment that is more than 130 percent of
the allotment percentage for the State for the previous year. The three
formula data factors for the Adult Activities program are the same as
those used for the Youth Activities formula, except the Department used
data for the number of economically disadvantaged Adults (age 18 to 72,
excluding college students in the workforce and military).
As noted above, updated data for within-state ASU calculations is
available from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), and States should
continue to use the economically disadvantaged Adults data made
available to States by the Department in 2013.
Dislocated Worker Employment and Training Activities Allotments.
The amount appropriated for Dislocated Worker activities in PY 2016
totals $1,241,719,000. The total appropriation includes formula funds
for the States, while the National Reserve is used for National
Dislocated Worker Grants, technical assistance and training,
demonstration projects, and the outlying areas' Dislocated Worker
allotments. After reducing the appropriated amount by $3,533,000 for
evaluations, a total of $1,238,186,000 remains available for Dislocated
Worker activities. The amount available for outlying areas is
$3,095,465, leaving $217,135,535 for the National Reserve and a total
of $1,017,955,000 available for States. Like the Adult program, Table C
shows the PY 2016 Dislocated Worker activities allotments and a State
by State comparison of the PY 2016 allotments to PY 2015 allotments.
Like the Adult Activities program, the Department reserved the
total available for the outlying areas at 0.25 percent of the full
amount appropriated for Dislocated Worker Activities (after the
evaluations set aside). Similar to Youth and Adult funds, instead of
competition, in PY 2016 the Department will use the same pro rata share
as the areas received for the PY 2016 WIOA Adult Activities program to
distribute the outlying areas' Dislocated Worker funds, the same
methodology used in PY 2015. The three data factors required in WIOA
for the PY 2016 Dislocated Worker State formula allotments are:
(1) Number of unemployed, averages for the 12-month period, October
2014-September 2015;
(2) Number of excess unemployed, averages for the 12-month period,
October 2014-September 2015; and
(3) Number of long-term unemployed, averages for the 12-month
period, October 2014-September 2015.
In PY 2016, under WIOA the Dislocated Worker formula adopted
minimum and maximum provisions. No State may receive an allotment that
is less than 90 percent of the State's prior year allotment percentage
or more than 130 percent of the State's prior year allotment
percentage.
Wagner-Peyser Act ES Final Allotments. The appropriated level for
PY 2016 for ES grants totals $680,000,000. After reducing the
appropriated amount by $1,845,000 for evaluations, a total of
$678,155,000 remains available for ES programs. After determining the
funding for outlying areas, the Department calculated allotments to
States using the formula set forth at section 6 of the Wagner-Peyser
Act (29 U.S.C. 49e). The Department based PY 2016 formula allotments on
each State's share of calendar year 2015 monthly averages of the
civilian labor force (CLF) and unemployment. Section 6(b)(4) of the
Wagner-Peyser Act requires the Secretary to set aside up to three
percent of the total funds available for ES to ensure that each State
will have sufficient resources to maintain statewide ES activities. In
accordance with this provision, the Department included the three
percent set-aside funds in this total allotment. The Department
distributed the set-aside funds in two steps to States that have
experienced a reduction in their relative share of the total resources
available this year from their relative share of the total resources
available 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. ETA
calculated the median CLF density based on CLF data provided by the BLS
for calendar year 2015. All remaining set-aside funds were distributed
on a pro-rata basis in Step 2 to all other States experiencing
reductions 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 $676,501,894 for States, as well as $1,653,106 for
outlying areas.
Under section 7(a), 90 percent of funds must be used for labor
exchange services and other career services such as job search and
placement services to job seekers; appropriate recruitment services for
employers; program evaluations; developing and providing labor market
and occupational information; developing management information
systems; and administering the work test for unemployment insurance
claimants. Under section 7(b) of the Wagner-Peyser Act, ten 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
[[Page 22643]]
extra costs of exemplary models for delivering job services.
Workforce Information Grants Allotments. Total PY 2016 funding for
Workforce Information Grants allotments to States is $32,000,000. The
allotment figures for each State are listed in Table E. Funds are
distributed by administrative formula, with a reserve of $176,800 for
Guam and the United States Virgin Islands. Guam and the United States
Virgin Islands allotment amounts are partially based on CLF data. The
Department distributes the remaining funds 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
2015.
