Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 185 / Tuesday, September 26, 2017 / Notices
above, we will consider whether a
center’s closure would result in a
significant reduction in student
diversity within the overall Job Corps
system.
The Department determined that these
considerations did not preclude closure
of Golconda. The Department is
requesting public comments on the
selection of Golconda for closure.
III. Temporary Closure of the Golconda
Job Corps Center
On July 19, 2017, the Department of
Labor temporarily closed Golconda.
Section III(I)(1) of the Interagency
Agreement between DOL and USDA
governing the operation of the Forest
Service-operated CCCs authorizes DOL,
in consultation with USDA, to
‘‘temporarily close a Job Corps CCC
managed by USDA, based upon a
concern for the health, safety and wellbeing of students, staff, and/or nearby
community(ies).’’
Golconda has a long history of
discipline and safety issues on campus,
including an inability to comply with
Job Corps’ discipline policy; failure to
adequately notify the Department of
serious incidents; and an inability to
ensure that students are provided a safe,
healthy, and secure learning
environment. Over the past several
years, DOL has made numerous
attempts to partner with the Forest
Service and center leadership to address
these issues. However, despite the
introduction of multiple new
procedures on center and the efforts of
numerous different center directors, the
operation of the center has not
improved and there has been no
improvement in the safety of the
students at Golconda. After careful
assessment, DOL, after consultation
with USDA, determined that Golconda’s
problems were so intractable that the
center was temporarily closed to ensure
the health and safety of the students and
staff currently on center.
V. The Process for Closing Job Corps
Centers, as Outlined in the Workforce
Innovation and Opportunity Act
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
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 Golconda CCC. The Department is
providing a 30-day period—the
maximum amount of time allowed for
comment under WIOA sec. 159(j)—for
interested individuals to submit written
comments on the proposed decision to
close these centers.
IV. Proposal to Permanently Close the
Golconda Job Corps Center
Based on the performance-based
criteria, and after applying the
additional considerations described
above, the Department proposes to
permanently close the Golconda Job
Corps Center.
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
2012–2016. Golconda 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.
