Program

AGENCY: Employment and Training Administration, Labor.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The Employment and Training Administration of the Department 
of Labor is publishing the Native American allocations, distribution 
formulas and rationale, and individual grantee planning estimates for 
Program Year (PY) 1994 (July 1, 1994-June 30, 1995) for regular 
programs funded under Title IV-A of the Job Training Partnership Act, 
and for Calendar Year 1994 for Summer Youth Employment and Training 
Programs (SYETP) funded under Title II-B of the JTPA.

DATES: Written comments on this proposal are invited and must be 
received on or before May 20, 1994.

Office of Special Targeted Programs, Employment and Training

Mr. Charles L. Atkinson, Phone: 202-219-4778 (this is not a toll free 
number).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to section 162 of the Job Training 
Partnership Act (JTPA), the Employment and Training Administration of 
the Department of Labor publishes below for review and comment the 
proposed allocations and distribution formulas for areas to be served 
by Native American grantees to be funded under JTPA section 401, and 
JTPA Title II, Part B. The amounts to be distributed are $64,218,000 
for the JTPA section 401 programs for Program Year (PY) 1994 (July 1, 
1994-June 30, 1995); and $15,943,033 for the JTPA, Title II, Part B, 
Summer Youth Employment and Training Program (SYETP) for the Summer of 
Calendar Year 1994. The allocations reflect the 1990 U.S. Census data, 
the existing grantees and their currently assigned areas, and are 
subject to change for such reasons as Administrative Law Judge 
decisions, the possibility that a grantee will want to have its 
designation withdrawn, legislative changes, et al.
    The formula for allocating JTPA Section 401 funds provides that 25 
percent of the funding will be based on the number of unemployed Native 
Americans in the grantee's area, and 75-percent will be based on the 
number of poverty-level Native Americans in the grantee's area.
    The formula for allocating SYETP funds divides the funds among 
eligible recipients based on the proportion that the number of Native 
American youths in a recipient's area bears to the total number of 
Native American youths in all eligible recipients' areas.
    The rationale for the above formulas is that the number of poverty-
level persons, unemployed persons, and youths among the Native American 
population is indicative of the need for training and employment funds.
    Statistics on youths, unemployed persons, and poverty-level persons 
among Native Americans used in the above programs are derived from the 
Decennial Census of the Population, 1990.

    Signed at Washington, DC this 18th day of April 1994.
Douglas Ross,
Assistant Secretary of Labor.
