ACTION: Notice. AGENCY: The Workforce Innovation Opportunity Act (WIOA), requires the Secretary of Labor (Secretary) to conduct reallotment of certain WIOA formula allotted funds based on ETA 9130 financial reports submitted by states as of the end of the prior PY. This notice publishes the dislocated worker PY 2021 funds for recapture by state and the amount to be reallotted to eligible states. DATES: This notice is effective February 10, 2022. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Kimberly Vitelli, Administrator, U.S. Department of Labor, Office of Workforce Investment, Employment and Training Administration, Room C–4510, 200 Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC Telephone (202) 693– 3980 (this is not a toll-free number) or fax (202) 693–3981. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Fiscal Year (FY) 2021 Appropriations Act, Congress appropriated WIOA PY 2021 funds in two portions: (1) Funds available for obligation July 1, 2021 (i.e., PY 2021 ‘‘base’’ funds), and (2) funds available for obligation October 1, 2021 SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00074 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 7871 (i.e., FY 2022 ‘‘advance’’ funds). Together, these two portions make up the complete PY 2021 WIOA funding. Training and Employment Guidance Letter (TEGL) No. 19–20 announced WIOA allotments based on this appropriation and TEGL No. 16–19 alerted states to the recapture and reallotment of funds’ provisions based on obligations of PY 2020 funding, as required under WIOA Section 132(c). This section and 127(c) of WIOA requires the Secretary of Labor (Secretary) to conduct reallotment of excess unobligated WIOA Adult, Youth, and Dislocated Worker formula funds based on ETA 9130 financial reports submitted by states at the end of the prior program year (i.e., PY 2020). WIOA regulations at 20 CFR 683.135 describe the procedures the Secretary uses for recapture and reallotment of funds. ETA will not recapture any PY 2021 funds for the Adult and Youth programs because there are no states where PY 2020 unobligated funds exceed the statutory requirements of 20 percent of state allotted funds. However, for the Dislocated Worker program, Oklahoma had unobligated PY 2020 funds in excess of 20 percent of their allotments. Therefore, ETA will recapture a total of $89,236 from PY 2021 funding from Oklahoma and reallot those funds to the remaining eligible states, as required by WIOA Section 132(c). ETA will issue a Notice of Award to the states to reflect the recapture and reallotment of these funds. ETA will make adjustments of funds to the FY 2022 advance portion of the PY 2021 allotments, which ETA issued in October 2021. The attached tables display the net changes to PY 2021 formula allotments. WIOA and its implementing regulations are silent on how states must distribute realloted funds, so states have flexibility to determine the methodology used. For any state subject to recapture of funds, WIOA Section 132(c)(5) requires the Governor to prescribe equitable procedures for reacquiring funds from the state and local areas. As mentioned, ETA will make the recapture/reallotment adjustments to the FY 2022 advance portion of the PY 2021 allotment. Therefore, for reporting purposes, states must reflect the recapture/reallotment amount (decrease or increase) in the ‘‘Total Federal Funds Authorized’’ line of any affected FY 2022 ETA 9130 financial reports (State Dislocated Worker Activities, Statewide Rapid Response, Local Dislocated Worker Activities) in a manner consistent with the method of E:\FR\FM\10FEN1.SGM 10FEN1 7872 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 28 / Thursday, February 10, 2022 / Notices jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with NOTICES1 distribution of these amounts to state and local areas used by the state.

Notice on Reallotment of Workforce Innovation Opportunity Act 
(WIOA) Title I Formula Allotted Funds for Dislocated Worker Activities 
for Program Year (PY) 2021

AGENCY: Employment and Training Administration (ETA), Labor.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Workforce Innovation Opportunity Act (WIOA), requires the 
Secretary of Labor (Secretary) to conduct reallotment of certain WIOA 
formula allotted funds based on ETA 9130 financial reports submitted by 
states as of the end of the prior PY. This notice publishes the 
dislocated worker PY 2021 funds for recapture by state and the amount 
to be reallotted to eligible states.

DATES: This notice is effective February 10, 2022.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Kimberly Vitelli, Administrator, 
U.S. Department of Labor, Office of Workforce Investment, Employment 
and Training Administration, Room C-4510, 200 Constitution Avenue NW, 
Washington, DC Telephone (202) 693-3980 (this is not a toll-free 
number) or fax (202) 693-3981.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Fiscal Year (FY) 2021 Appropriations 
Act, Congress appropriated WIOA PY 2021 funds in two portions: (1) 
Funds available for obligation July 1, 2021 (i.e., PY 2021 ``base'' 
funds), and (2) funds available for obligation October 1, 2021 (i.e., 
FY 2022 ``advance'' funds). Together, these two portions make up the 
complete PY 2021 WIOA funding. Training and Employment Guidance Letter 
(TEGL) No. 19-20 announced WIOA allotments based on this appropriation 
and TEGL No. 16-19 alerted states to the recapture and reallotment of 
funds' provisions based on obligations of PY 2020 funding, as required 
under WIOA Section 132(c). This section and 127(c) of WIOA requires the 
Secretary of Labor (Secretary) to conduct reallotment of excess 
unobligated WIOA Adult, Youth, and Dislocated Worker formula funds 
based on ETA 9130 financial reports submitted by states at the end of 
the prior program year (i.e., PY 2020).
    WIOA regulations at 20 CFR 683.135 describe the procedures the 
Secretary uses for recapture and reallotment of funds. ETA will not 
recapture any PY 2021 funds for the Adult and Youth programs because 
there are no states where PY 2020 unobligated funds exceed the 
statutory requirements of 20 percent of state allotted funds. However, 
for the Dislocated Worker program, Oklahoma had unobligated PY 2020 
funds in excess of 20 percent of their allotments. Therefore, ETA will 
recapture a total of $89,236 from PY 2021 funding from Oklahoma and 
reallot those funds to the remaining eligible states, as required by 
WIOA Section 132(c).
    ETA will issue a Notice of Award to the states to reflect the 
recapture and reallotment of these funds. ETA will make adjustments of 
funds to the FY 2022 advance portion of the PY 2021 allotments, which 
ETA issued in October 2021. The attached tables display the net changes 
to PY 2021 formula allotments.
    WIOA and its implementing regulations are silent on how states must 
distribute realloted funds, so states have flexibility to determine the 
methodology used. For any state subject to recapture of funds, WIOA 
Section 132(c)(5) requires the Governor to prescribe equitable 
procedures for reacquiring funds from the state and local areas.
    As mentioned, ETA will make the recapture/reallotment adjustments 
to the FY 2022 advance portion of the PY 2021 allotment. Therefore, for 
reporting purposes, states must reflect the recapture/reallotment 
amount (decrease or increase) in the ``Total Federal Funds Authorized'' 
line of any affected FY 2022 ETA 9130 financial reports (State 
Dislocated Worker Activities, Statewide Rapid Response, Local 
Dislocated Worker Activities) in a manner consistent with the method of

distribution of these amounts to state and local areas used by the 
state. The state must include an explanation of the adjustment in the 
remarks section of the adjusted reports.
