I Letter Sent to Governors II Federal Register notice (57 FR 57842-57845). ATTACHMENT I: Letter Sent to Governors February 2, 1993 The Honorable H. Guy Hunt Governor of Alabama Montgomery, Alabama 36130 Dear Governor Hunt: I am sending you a copy of the Federal Register notice published on December 1992 Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) Title III formula- allotted funds. The limited resources available under Title III are distributed to States each year to provide retraining and basic readjustment services to dislocated workers. Under the provisions of the Act, excess formula-allotted funds that remain unexpended at the end of the program year are to be recaptured and reallotted among eligible States. The reallotment process is based on expenditure reports submitted by the States. The reallotment of PY 1992 funds reflects the excess unexpended Title III formula-allotted funds as of June 30, 1992, as reported by each State. If you have any questions about this process, please feel free to contact me. I look forward to your continued assistance in helping dislocated workers move rapidly into new jobs. Sincerely, CAROLYN M. GOLDING Acting assistant Secretary Enclosure ATTACHMENT II: Federal Register notice (57 FR 57842-57845). Federal Register #235, 12-7-92, TEGL #3-92 DEPARTMENT OF LABOR Employment and Training Administration Job Training Partnership Act: Employment and Training Assistance for Dislocated Workers; Reallotment of Title III Funds AGENCY: Employment and Training Administration, Labor ACTION: Notice SUMMARY: The Department of Labor is publishing for public information the Job Training Partnership Act Title III (Employment and Training Assistance for Dislocated Workers) funds identified by States for reallotment, and the amount to be reallotted to eligible States. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Robert N. Colombo, Director, Office of Worker Retraining and Adjustment Programs, Employment and Training Administration, Department of Labor, room N-4703, 200 Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20210. Telephone: 202-219-5577 (this is not a toll-free number) SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to Title III of the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA or the Act), as amended by the Economic Dislocation and Worker Adjustment Assistance Act (EDWAA), the Secretary of Labor (Secretary) is required to recapture funds from States identified pursuant to section 303(b) of the Act, and reallot such funds by a Notice of Obligation (NOO) adjustment to current year funds to "eligible States" and "eligible high unemployment States" as set forth in section 303(a), (b), and (c) of JTPA. 29 U.S.C. 1653. The basic reallotment process was described in Training and Employment Guidance Letter No. 4-88, dated November 25, 1988, Subject: Reallotment and Reallocation of Funds under Title III of the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) as amended, 53 FR 43737 (December 2, 1988). The reallotment process for Program Year (PY) 1992 funds was described in Training and Employment Guidance Letter No. 2-91, dated December 27, 1991, Subject: Reallotment of Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) Title III Formula-Allotted Funds. NOO adjustments to the PY 1992 (July 1, 1992-June 30, 1993) formula allotments are being issued based on expenditures reported to the Secretary by the States, as required by the recapture and reallotment provisions at Section 303 of JTPA 29 U.S.C. 1653. The funds recaptured are an amount equal to the sum of every State's unexpended PY 1991 formula funds in excess of 20 percent of its PY 1991 formula allotments, and all unexpended funds made available by formula for PY 1990. A State's PY 1991 formula allotments include the initial allotment for PY 1992, and any additional funds received by the State during the PY 1991 reallotment process. Funds are recaptured from PY 1992 formula allotments, and are distributed by formula to eligible States and eligible high unemployment States, resulting in either an upward or downward adjustment to every State's PY 1992 allotment. Unemployment Data The unemployment data used in the formula for reallotments, relative numbers of unemployed and relative numbers of excess unemployed, were for the July 1991 through June 1992 period. Long- term unemployment data used were for calendar year 1991. The determination of "eligible high unemployment State" for the reallotment of excess unexpended funds was also based on unemployment data for the period July 1991 through June 1992, with all average unemployment rates rounded to the nearest tenth of one percent. The unemployment data were provided by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, bsaed on the Current Population Survey. The table below displays the distribution of the net changes to PY 1992 formula allotments.

Column 2: This column shows the amount of excess funds (unexpended PY 1991 funds in excess of 20 percent of the State's PY 1991 formula allotments as described above and/or unexpended PY 1990 formula alloted funds), which are subject to reallotment. PY 1992 funds in an amount equal to the excess funds identified will be recaptured from such States and distributed as discussed below. Column 3: This column shows total excess funds distributed among all "eligible States" by applying the regular Title III formula. "Eligible States" are those with unexpended PY 1991 funds at or below the level of 20 percent of their PY 1991 formula allotments as described above. Column 45: Eligible States with unemployment rates higher than the national average, which was 7.2 percent for the 12-month period, are "eligible high unemployment States." These eligible high unemployment States received amounts equal to their share of the excess funds (the amounts shown in column 3) according to the regular Title III formula. This is Step 1 of the reallotment process. These amounts are shown in column 4 and total $566,578. Column 5: The sum of the remaining shares of available funds ($287,382) for eligible States with unemployment rates less than or equal to the national average is distrubted among all eligible States, again using the regular Title III allotment formula. This is Step 2 of the reallotment process. These amounts are shown in column 5. Column 6: Net changes in PY 1992 formula allotment are presented. This column represents the decreases in Title III funds shown in column 2, and the increases in Title III funds shown in columns 4 and 5. NOOs in the amounts shown in column 6 are being issued to the States listed. Equitable Procedures Pursuant to section 303(d) of the Act, Governors of States required to make funds available for reallotment shall prescribe equitable procedures for making funds available from the State and substate grantees. 29 U.S.C. 1653(d). Distribution of Funds Funds are being reallotted by the Secretary in accordance with section 303(a),(b), and (c) of the Act, using the factors described in section 302(b) of the Act. 29 U.S.C. 1652(b) and 1653 (a), (b), and (c), Distribution within States of funds alloted to States shall be in accordance with section 302(c) and (d) of the Act (29 U.S.C. 1652(c) and (d), and the JTPA regulation at 20 CFR 631.12(d). Signed at Washington, DC, this 25th day of November, 1992. Roberts T. Jones, Assistant Secretary of Labor
