Workforce Investment Act Amendments; Supplement
Given that the Department of Labor (the Department) is now posting public comments on the Internet through the https:// www.regulations.gov Web site, the federal eRulemaking portal, the following language should be inserted at the end of the ADDRESSES section of the preamble for the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking at 71 FR 76558 (December 20, 2006). ``Please note that comments received will be posted on the https:// www.regulations.gov Web site. The https://www.regulations.gov Web site is the federal eRulemaking portal and all comments received will be available and accessible to the public. Therefore, the Department recommends that commenters safeguard their personal information such as Social Security Numbers, personal addresses, telephone numbers, and e- mail addresses included in their comments as such may become easily available to the public via the https://www.regulations.gov Web site. If a comment is e-mailed directly to the Department's address without going through https://www.regulations.gov, the comment will have the sender's e-mail address attached to it and therefore, the e-mail address and information contained therein may be posted online. It is the responsibility of the commenter to safeguard their information. All comments received will be posted on https://www.regulations.gov and may be posted without information redacted. However, for comments that were submitted to ETA before the publication of this Supplement, ETA will make every effort to redact apparently confidential information before posting the comment on https://www.regulations.gov.''
Labor Certification Process for the Temporary Employment of Aliens in Agriculture and Logging in the United States: 2007 Adverse Effect Wage Rates, Allowable Charges for Agricultural and Logging Workers' Meals, and Maximum Travel Subsistence Reimbursement
The Employment and Training Administration (ETA) of the U.S. Department of Labor (Department or DOL) is issuing this Notice to announce the 2007 AEWRs for employers seeking to employ temporary or seasonal nonimmigrant foreign workers to perform agricultural labor or services (H-2A workers) or logging (H-2 logging workers); the allowable charges for 2007 that employers seeking H-2A workers and H-2 logging workers may levy upon their workers when three meals a day are provided by the employer; and the maximum travel subsistence reimbursement which a worker with receipts may claim in 2007. AEWRs are the minimum wage rates the Department has determined must be offered and paid by employers of H-2A workers or H-2 logging workers to U.S. and foreign workers. AEWRs are established in order to prevent the employment of these foreign workers from adversely affecting wages of similarly employed U.S. workers. The Department also announces the minimum and maximum charge of travel subsistence expenses a worker may claim in 2007.
