ACTION: Notice.

AGENCY:
This notice announces changes in
benefit period eligibility under the EB
program that have occurred since the
publication of the last notice regarding
the States’ EB status:
• Based on data released by the
Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) on May
21, 2021:
Æ The seasonally-adjusted total
unemployment rate (TUR) for New
Mexico exceeded 8.0 percent was
greater than 110 percent in both the
prior or second prior year. Legislation
the State enacted adopting the optional
TUR triggers became effective the week
ending June 19, 2021, meaning the New
Mexico will begin a high unemployment
period (HUP) period effective July 4,
2021. Beginning July 4, 2021, the
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:26 Jul 15, 2021
Jkt 253001
maximum potential EB entitlement for
claimants in New Mexico will be 20
weeks.
Æ The 13-week mandatory ‘‘on’’
period for the HUP for the District of
Columbia and Massachusetts will end
on July 3, 2021. During the 13-week
mandatory ‘‘on’’ period, the seasonallyadjusted TURs for both the District and
Massachusetts fell below the 8.0%
threshold necessary to remain ‘‘on’’ a
HUP. As such, beginning July 4, 2021,
the maximum potential EB entitlement
for claimants in the District of Columbia
and Massachusetts will decrease from
20 weeks to 13 weeks.
• Based on the data released by the
BLS on June 23, 2021 the seasonallyadjusted TUR for Massachusetts and
Rhode Island fell below the 6.5%
threshold to remain ‘‘on’’ EB. Therefore,
the EB period for both states will end on
July 17, 2021.
The trigger notice covering state
eligibility for the EB program can be
found at: https://ows.doleta.gov/
unemploy/claims_arch.as.
Information for Claimants
The duration of benefits payable in
the EB program, and the terms and
conditions on which they are payable,
are governed by the Federal-State
Extended Unemployment Compensation
Act of 1970, as amended, and the
operating instructions issued to the
states by the U.S. Department of Labor.
In the case of a state beginning an EB
period, the State Workforce Agency will
furnish a written notice of potential
entitlement to each individual who has
exhausted all rights to regular benefits
and is potentially eligible for EB (20
CFR 615.13(c)(1)).
Persons who believe they may be
entitled to EB, or who wish to inquire
about their rights under the program,
should contact their State Workforce
Agency.
