ACTION: Notice. AGENCY: This notice announces allotments for PY 2024 for WIOA Title I Youth, Adult, and Dislocated Worker Activities programs; allotments for Employment Service (ES) activities under the Wagner-Peyser Act for PY 2024, and the allotments of Workforce Information Grants to States for PY 2024. WIOA allotments for states and the state allotments for the WagnerPeyser Act ES are based on formulas defined in their respective statutes. WIOA requires allotments for the Outlying Areas to be competitively awarded rather than based on a formula determined by the Secretary of Labor (Secretary) as occurred under the Workforce Investment Act (WIA). However, for PY 2024, the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024 waives the competition requirement, and the Secretary is using the discretionary formula rationale and methodology for allocating PY 2024 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 (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 2024 is the same formula used in PY 2023 and is described in the section on Youth Activities program allotments. The Department invites comments only on the formula used to allot funds to the Outlying Areas. DATES: The Department must receive comments on the formula used to allot funds to the Outlying Areas by June 10, 2024.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department is announcing WIOA allotments for PY 2024 for Youth Activities, Adult and Dislocated Worker Activities, Wagner-Peyser Act PY 2024 allotments, and PY 2024 Workforce Information Grant allotments. This notice provides information on the amount of funds available during PY 2024 to states with an approved WIOA Combined or Unified State Plan, and information regarding allotments to the Outlying Areas. On March 23, 2024, the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024, Pub. L. 118–47 was signed into law (‘‘the Act’’). The Act, Division D, title I, sections 106(b) and 107 of the Act allows the Secretary of Labor (Secretary) to set aside up to 0.5 percent of each discretionary appropriation for activities related to program integrity and 0.75 percent of most operating funds for evaluations. For 2024, as authorized by the Act, the Department has set aside $8,322,000 of the Training and Employment Services (TES) and $2,190,000 of the State Unemployment Insurance and Employment Services Operations (SUIESO) appropriations impacted in this FRN for these activities. ETA reserved these funds from the WIOA Adult, Youth, Dislocated Worker, Wagner-Peyser Act Employment Service, and Workforce Information Grant program budgets. Any funds not utilized for these reserve activities will be provided to the states. We also have attached tables listing the PY 2024 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 2024 Wagner-Peyser Act allotments (Table D). We also have attached the PY 2024 Workforce Information Grant table (Table E) and the total WIOA Youth, Adult and Dislocated Worker funding for Outlying Areas (Table F). Youth Activities Allotments. The appropriated level for PY 2024 for WIOA Youth Activities totals $948,130,000. After reducing the appropriation by $3,131,000 for set asides authorized by the Act and reserving $925,200 for Migrant and Seasonal Farmworker (MSFW) Youth, $944,073,800 is available for Youth Activities. Table A includes a breakdown of the Youth Activities program allotments for PY 2024 and provides a comparison of these allotments to PY 2023 Youth Activities allotments for all States and Outlying Areas. The WIOA Youth formula has a VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:17 May 08, 2024 Jkt 262001 section in WIOA for a reservation for Migrant and Seasonal Farmworker (MSFW) Youth if the appropriation exceeds $925,000,000. Per WIOA 127(a)(1), ETA reserved 4 percent ($925,200) of the excess amount for MSFW Youth. For the Native American Youth program, the total amount available is 1.5 percent of the total amount for Youth Activities (after set asides authorized by the Act) after the MSFW Youth reservation (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 set asides authorized by the Act) after the amount reserved for MSFW Youth and 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 sec. 512(g)(1) updated the Compact to refer to WIOA funding. The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 (Division A, Title XII, subtitle F, section 1259C(c) of Pub. L. 115–91) authorized WIOA Title I funding to the Republic of Palau through FY 2024. Under WIA, the Secretary had discretion for determining the methodology for distributing funds to all Outlying Areas. Under WIOA the Secretary must award the funds through a competitive process. However, for PY 2024, the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024 waives the competition requirement 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 2024, 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 2024, the Department continued to use the data obtained from the 2020 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 used data from Palau’s 2020 Census. The Department will accept comments on this methodology. The Act PO 00000 Frm 00073 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 39651 additionally allows Outlying Areas to submit a single application according to the requirements established by the Secretary for a consolidated grant for Adult, Youth, and Dislocated Worker funds. Subject to approval of the grant application and other reporting requirements of the Secretary, the Act allows Outlying Areas receiving a consolidated grant to use those funds interchangeably between Adult, Youth, and Dislocated Worker programs or activities. Table F includes the total Youth, Adult and Dislocated Worker funding for Outlying Areas. After the Department calculated the amount for the MSFW Youth, Outlying Areas and the Native American program, the amount available for PY 2024 allotments to the states is $927,587,911. This total amount is below the required $1 billion threshold specified in WIOA sec. 127(b)(1)(C)(iv)(IV); therefore, the Department did not apply the WIOA additional minimum provisions. Instead, as required by WIOA, the minimums of 90 percent of the prior year allotment percentage and 0.25 percent state minimum floor apply. 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 sec. 127(b)(1)(C)(ii) for the PY 2024 Youth Activities state formula allotments are, summarized slightly, as follows: (1) The average number of unemployed individuals in Areas of Substantial Unemployment (ASUs) for the 12-month period, July 2022–June 2023 in each state compared to the total number of unemployed individuals in ASUs in all states; (2) Number of excess unemployed individuals or excess unemployed individuals in ASUs (depending on which is higher) averages for the same 12-month period used for ASU unemployed data compared to the total excess unemployed individuals or ASU excess number in all states; and (3) Number of disadvantaged youth (age 16 to 21, excluding college students not in the workforce and military) from special tabulations of data from the American Community Survey (ACS), which the Department obtained from the Census Bureau in each state compared to the total number of disadvantaged youth in all states. ETA obtained updated data for use in PY 2023 and the same data was used in PY 2024. The Census Bureau collected the data used in the special tabulations for disadvantaged youth between January 1, 2016–December 31, 2020. E:\FR\FM\09MYN1.SGM 09MYN1 ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1 39652 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 91 / Thursday, May 9, 2024 / Notices For purposes of identifying ASUs for the Youth Activities allotment formula, the Department continued to use the data made available by BLS (as described in the Local Area Unemployment Statistics (LAUS) Technical Memorandum No. S–23–12). For purposes of determining the number of disadvantaged youth, the Department used the special tabulations of ACS data available at: https://www.dol.gov/ agencies/eta/budget/formula/ disadvantagedyouthadults. See TEGL No. 01–23 for further information. Adult Employment and Training Activities Allotments. The total appropriated funds for Adult Activities in PY 2024 is $885,649,000. After reducing the appropriated amount by $2,351,000 for set asides authorized by the Act, $883,298,000 remains for Adult Activities, of which $881,089,755 is for states and $2,208,245 is for Outlying Areas. Table B shows the PY 2024 Adult Employment and Training Activities allotments and a state-by-state comparison of the PY 2024 allotments to PY 2023 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 set asides authorized by the Act). As discussed in the Youth Activities section above, in PY 2024 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. The Department will accept comments on this methodology. 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 2024 allotments because the total amount available for the states was below the $960 million threshold required for Adult Activities in WIOA sec. 132(b)(1)(B)(iv)(IV). Instead, as required by WIOA, the minimums of 90 percent of the prior year allotment percentage and 0.25 percent state minimum floor apply. 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 disadvantaged adults (age 22 to 72, excluding college students not in the workforce and military). VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:17 May 08, 2024 Jkt 262001 Dislocated Worker Employment and Training Activities Allotments. The amount appropriated for Dislocated Worker activities in PY 2024 totals $1,396,412,000. 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, Workforce Opportunity for Rural Communities, Community College Grants, and the Outlying Areas’ Dislocated Worker allotments. After reducing the appropriated amount by $2,840,000 for set asides authorized by the Act, a total of $1,393,572,000 remains available for Dislocated Worker activities. The amount available for Outlying Areas is $3,483,930, leaving $297,375,070 for the National Reserve and a total of $1,092,713,000 available for states. Table C shows the PY 2024 Dislocated Worker activities allotments and a stateby-state comparison of the PY 2024 allotments to PY 2023 allotments. Similar to 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 set asides authorized by the Act). Similar to Youth and Adult funds, instead of competition, in PY 2024 the Department will use the same pro rata share as the areas received for the PY 2024 WIOA Adult Activities program to distribute the Outlying Areas’ Dislocated Worker funds, the same methodology used in PY 2023. The Department will accept comments on this methodology. The three data factors required in WIOA sec. 132(b)(2)(B)(ii) for the PY 2024 Dislocated Worker state formula allotments are, summarized slightly, as follows: (1) Relative number of unemployed individuals in each state, compared to the total number of unemployed individuals in all states, for the 12month period, October 2022–September 2023; (2) Relative number of excess unemployed individuals in each state, compared to the total excess number of unemployed individuals in all states, for the 12-month period, October 2022– September 2023; and (3) Relative number of long-term unemployed individuals in each state, compared to the total number of longterm unemployed individuals in all states, for the 12-month period, October 2022–September 2023. In PY 2024, under WIOA the Dislocated Worker formula uses minimum and maximum provisions. No state may receive an allotment that is PO 00000 Frm 00074 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 less than 90 percent of the state’s prior year allotment percentage (stop loss) or more than 130 percent of the state’s prior year allotment percentage (stop gain). Wagner-Peyser Act ES Allotments. The appropriated level for PY 2024 for ES grants totals $675,052,000. After reducing the appropriated amount by $2,159,000 for set asides authorized by the Act, $672,893,000 is available for ES grants. After determining the funding for Guam and the United States Virgin Islands, 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 2024 formula allotments on each state’s share of calendar year 2023 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 2023. The Department distributed all remaining set-aside funds 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 $671,252,721 for states, as well as $1,640,279 for Outlying Areas. Section 7(a) of the Wagner-Peyser Act (49 U.S.C. 49f(a)) authorizes states to use 90 percent of funds allotted to a state 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. Section 7(b) of the WagnerPeyser Act states that 10 percent of the E:\FR\FM\09MYN1.SGM 09MYN1 39653 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 91 / Thursday, May 9, 2024 / Notices total sums allotted to each state must be reserved for use by the Governor to provide performance incentives for public ES offices and programs, provide services for groups with special needs, and to provide for the extra costs of exemplary models for delivering services of the type described in section 7(a) and models for enhancing professional development and career advancement opportunities of state agency staff. To provide services such as outreach to MSFWs, State Monitor Advocate (SMA) responsibilities, and others, State Workforce Agencies, (SWAs) must use Wagner-Peyser Act ES funding to provide employment services to migrant and seasonal farmworkers (MSFW), which are described at 20 CFR 651, 653, 654, and 658. Workforce Information Grants Allotments. Total PY 2024 funding for Workforce Information Grants allotments to states is $32,000,000. After reducing the total by $31,000 for set asides authorized by the Act, $31,969,000 is available for Workforce Information Grants. Table E contains the allotment figures for each state and Outlying Area. The Department distributes the funds by administrative formula, with a reserve of $176,726 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 2023.

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration


Program Year (PY) 2024 Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act 
(WIOA) Title I Allotments; PY 2024 Title III Wagner-Peyser Act 
Employment Service Allotments and PY 2024 Workforce Information Grants

AGENCY: Employment and Training Administration, Labor.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: This notice announces allotments for PY 2024 for WIOA Title I 
Youth, Adult, and Dislocated Worker Activities programs; allotments for 
Employment Service (ES) activities under the Wagner-Peyser Act for PY 
2024, and the allotments of Workforce Information Grants to States for 
PY 2024. WIOA allotments for states and the state allotments for the 
Wagner-Peyser Act ES are based on formulas defined in their respective 
statutes. WIOA requires allotments for the Outlying Areas to be 
competitively awarded rather than based on a formula determined by the 
Secretary of Labor (Secretary) as occurred under the Workforce 
Investment Act (WIA). However, for PY 2024, the Further Consolidated 
Appropriations Act, 2024 waives the competition requirement, and the 
Secretary is using the discretionary formula rationale and methodology 
for allocating PY 2024 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 (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 2024 is the same formula used in PY 2023 and is described in the 
section on Youth Activities program allotments. The Department invites 
comments only on the formula used to allot funds to the Outlying Areas.

DATES: The Department must receive comments on the formula used to 
allot funds to the Outlying Areas by June 10, 2024.

ADDRESSES: Questions on this notice can be submitted to the Employment 
and Training Administration, Office of Workforce Investment, 200

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department is announcing WIOA allotments 
for PY 2024 for Youth Activities, Adult and Dislocated Worker 
Activities, Wagner-Peyser Act PY 2024 allotments, and PY 2024 Workforce 
Information Grant allotments. This notice provides information on the 
amount of funds available during PY 2024 to states with an approved 
WIOA Combined or Unified State Plan, and information regarding 
allotments to the Outlying Areas.
    On March 23, 2024, the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 
2024, Pub. L. 118-47 was signed into law (``the Act''). The Act, 
Division D, title I, sections 106(b) and 107 of the Act allows the 
Secretary of Labor (Secretary) to set aside up to 0.5 percent of each 
discretionary appropriation for activities related to program integrity 
and 0.75 percent of most operating funds for evaluations. For 2024, as 
authorized by the Act, the Department has set aside $8,322,000 of the 
Training and Employment Services (TES) and $2,190,000 of the State 
Unemployment Insurance and Employment Services Operations (SUIESO) 
appropriations impacted in this FRN for these activities. ETA reserved 
these funds from the WIOA Adult, Youth, Dislocated Worker, Wagner-
Peyser Act Employment Service, and Workforce Information Grant program 
budgets. Any funds not utilized for these reserve activities will be 
provided to the states. We also have attached tables listing the PY 
2024 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 2024 Wagner-Peyser Act 
allotments (Table D). We also have attached the PY 2024 Workforce 
Information Grant table (Table E) and the total WIOA Youth, Adult and 
Dislocated Worker funding for Outlying Areas (Table F).
    Youth Activities Allotments. The appropriated level for PY 2024 for 
WIOA Youth Activities totals $948,130,000. After reducing the 
appropriation by $3,131,000 for set asides authorized by the Act and 
reserving $925,200 for Migrant and Seasonal Farmworker (MSFW) Youth, 
$944,073,800 is available for Youth Activities. Table A includes a 
breakdown of the Youth Activities program allotments for PY 2024 and 
provides a comparison of these allotments to PY 2023 Youth Activities 
allotments for all States and Outlying Areas. The WIOA Youth formula 
has a section in WIOA for a reservation for Migrant and Seasonal 
Farmworker (MSFW) Youth if the appropriation exceeds $925,000,000. Per 
WIOA 127(a)(1), ETA reserved 4 percent ($925,200) of the excess amount 
for MSFW Youth. For the Native American Youth program, the total amount 
available is 1.5 percent of the total amount for Youth Activities 
(after set asides authorized by the Act) after the MSFW Youth 
reservation (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 set asides authorized 
by the Act) after the amount reserved for MSFW Youth and 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 sec. 512(g)(1) 
updated the Compact to refer to WIOA funding. The National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 (Division A, Title XII, subtitle 
F, section 1259C(c) of Pub. L. 115-91) authorized WIOA Title I funding 
to the Republic of Palau through FY 2024.
    Under WIA, the Secretary had discretion for determining the 
methodology for distributing funds to all Outlying Areas. Under WIOA 
the Secretary must award the funds through a competitive process. 
However, for PY 2024, the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024 
waives the competition requirement 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 2024, 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 2024, the Department continued to use the data 
obtained from the 2020 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 used data 
from Palau's 2020 Census. The Department will accept comments on this 
methodology. The Act additionally allows Outlying Areas to submit a 
single application according to the requirements established by the 
Secretary for a consolidated grant for Adult, Youth, and Dislocated 
Worker funds. Subject to approval of the grant application and other 
reporting requirements of the Secretary, the Act allows Outlying Areas 
receiving a consolidated grant to use those funds interchangeably 
between Adult, Youth, and Dislocated Worker programs or activities. 
Table F includes the total Youth, Adult and Dislocated Worker funding 
for Outlying Areas.
    After the Department calculated the amount for the MSFW Youth, 
Outlying Areas and the Native American program, the amount available 
for PY 2024 allotments to the states is $927,587,911. This total amount 
is below the required $1 billion threshold specified in WIOA sec. 
127(b)(1)(C)(iv)(IV); therefore, the Department did not apply the WIOA 
additional minimum provisions. Instead, as required by WIOA, the 
minimums of 90 percent of the prior year allotment percentage and 0.25 
percent state minimum floor apply. 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 sec. 127(b)(1)(C)(ii) for the PY 2024 Youth Activities 
state formula allotments are, summarized slightly, as follows:
    (1) The average number of unemployed individuals in Areas of 
Substantial Unemployment (ASUs) for the 12-month period, July 2022-June 
2023 in each state compared to the total number of unemployed 
individuals in ASUs in all states;
    (2) Number of excess unemployed individuals or excess unemployed 
individuals in ASUs (depending on which is higher) averages for the 
same 12-month period used for ASU unemployed data compared to the total 
excess unemployed individuals or ASU excess number in all states; and
    (3) Number of disadvantaged youth (age 16 to 21, excluding college 
students not in the workforce and military) from special tabulations of 
data from the American Community Survey (ACS), which the Department 
obtained from the Census Bureau in each state compared to the total 
number of disadvantaged youth in all states. ETA obtained updated data 
for use in PY 2023 and the same data was used in PY 2024. The Census 
Bureau collected the data used in the special tabulations for 
disadvantaged youth between January 1, 2016-December 31, 2020.

[[Page 39652]]

    For purposes of identifying ASUs for the Youth Activities allotment 
formula, the Department continued to use the data made available by BLS 
(as described in the Local Area Unemployment Statistics (LAUS) 
Technical Memorandum No. S-23-12). For purposes of determining the 
number of disadvantaged youth, the Department used the special 
tabulations of ACS data available at: https://www.dol.gov/agencies/eta/budget/formula/disadvantagedyouthadults. See TEGL No. 01-23 for further 
information.
    Adult Employment and Training Activities Allotments. The total 
appropriated funds for Adult Activities in PY 2024 is $885,649,000. 
After reducing the appropriated amount by $2,351,000 for set asides 
authorized by the Act, $883,298,000 remains for Adult Activities, of 
which $881,089,755 is for states and $2,208,245 is for Outlying Areas. 
Table B shows the PY 2024 Adult Employment and Training Activities 
allotments and a state-by-state comparison of the PY 2024 allotments to 
PY 2023 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 set asides authorized by the 
Act). As discussed in the Youth Activities section above, in PY 2024 
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. The Department will accept 
comments on this methodology. 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 2024 
allotments because the total amount available for the states was below 
the $960 million threshold required for Adult Activities in WIOA sec. 
132(b)(1)(B)(iv)(IV). Instead, as required by WIOA, the minimums of 90 
percent of the prior year allotment percentage and 0.25 percent state 
minimum floor apply. 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 
disadvantaged adults (age 22 to 72, excluding college students not in 
the workforce and military).
    Dislocated Worker Employment and Training Activities Allotments. 
The amount appropriated for Dislocated Worker activities in PY 2024 
totals $1,396,412,000. 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, Workforce Opportunity for Rural Communities, 
Community College Grants, and the Outlying Areas' Dislocated Worker 
allotments. After reducing the appropriated amount by $2,840,000 for 
set asides authorized by the Act, a total of $1,393,572,000 remains 
available for Dislocated Worker activities. The amount available for 
Outlying Areas is $3,483,930, leaving $297,375,070 for the National 
Reserve and a total of $1,092,713,000 available for states. Table C 
shows the PY 2024 Dislocated Worker activities allotments and a state-
by-state comparison of the PY 2024 allotments to PY 2023 allotments.
    Similar to 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 set asides 
authorized by the Act). Similar to Youth and Adult funds, instead of 
competition, in PY 2024 the Department will use the same pro rata share 
as the areas received for the PY 2024 WIOA Adult Activities program to 
distribute the Outlying Areas' Dislocated Worker funds, the same 
methodology used in PY 2023. The Department will accept comments on 
this methodology.
    The three data factors required in WIOA sec. 132(b)(2)(B)(ii) for 
the PY 2024 Dislocated Worker state formula allotments are, summarized 
slightly, as follows:
    (1) Relative number of unemployed individuals in each state, 
compared to the total number of unemployed individuals in all states, 
for the 12-month period, October 2022-September 2023;
    (2) Relative number of excess unemployed individuals in each state, 
compared to the total excess number of unemployed individuals in all 
states, for the 12-month period, October 2022-September 2023; and
    (3) Relative number of long-term unemployed individuals in each 
state, compared to the total number of long-term unemployed individuals 
in all states, for the 12-month period, October 2022-September 2023.
    In PY 2024, under WIOA the Dislocated Worker formula uses minimum 
and maximum provisions. No state may receive an allotment that is less 
than 90 percent of the state's prior year allotment percentage (stop 
loss) or more than 130 percent of the state's prior year allotment 
percentage (stop gain).
    Wagner-Peyser Act ES Allotments. The appropriated level for PY 2024 
for ES grants totals $675,052,000. After reducing the appropriated 
amount by $2,159,000 for set asides authorized by the Act, $672,893,000 
is available for ES grants. After determining the funding for Guam and 
the United States Virgin Islands, 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 2024 formula allotments on 
each state's share of calendar year 2023 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 2023. The Department distributed all remaining set-
aside funds 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 $671,252,721 for states, as well as 
$1,640,279 for Outlying Areas.
    Section 7(a) of the Wagner-Peyser Act (49 U.S.C. 49f(a)) authorizes 
states to use 90 percent of funds allotted to a state 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. Section 7(b) of the Wagner-Peyser Act states that 10 percent 
of the

[[Page 39653]]

total sums allotted to each state must be reserved for use by the 
Governor to provide performance incentives for public ES offices and 
programs, provide services for groups with special needs, and to 
provide for the extra costs of exemplary models for delivering services 
of the type described in section 7(a) and models for enhancing 
professional development and career advancement opportunities of state 
agency staff.
    To provide services such as outreach to MSFWs, State Monitor 
Advocate (SMA) responsibilities, and others, State Workforce Agencies, 
(SWAs) must use Wagner-Peyser Act ES funding to provide employment 
services to migrant and seasonal farmworkers (MSFW), which are 
described at 20 CFR 651, 653, 654, and 658.
    Workforce Information Grants Allotments. Total PY 2024 funding for 
Workforce Information Grants allotments to states is $32,000,000. After 
reducing the total by $31,000 for set asides authorized by the Act, 
$31,969,000 is available for Workforce Information Grants. Table E 
contains the allotment figures for each state and Outlying Area. The 
Department distributes the funds by administrative formula, with a 
reserve of $176,726 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 2023.
