DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration


Job Training Partnership Act: Migrant and Seasonal Farmworker 
Programs; Final Allocations

AGENCY: Employment and Training Administration, Labor.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The Employment and Training Administration is publishing the 
estimated final allocation for Program Year (PY) 1996 (July 1, 1996-
June 30, 1997) for the Migrant and Seasonal Farmworkers program (MSFW) 
authorized under Section 402 of the Job Training Partnership Act.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Charles C. Kane, Chief, Division 
of Seasonal Farmworker Programs. Telephone: (202) 219-5500 (this is not 
a toll-free number).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: the allocations set forth in the appendix to 
this notice were computed according to the Program year 1994 allocation 
formula published at 59 FR 17577 (April 13, 1994). When the 
appropriation for the Department of Labor's 1996 fiscal year was 
enacted into law, it incorporated the prior agreement of the House and 
Senate Committees on an appropriation amount for the 402 Migrant and 
Seasonal Farmworker Program of $69,285,000. Grant plans should proceed 
on the basis of this amount. This amount is a decrease of $10,682,000 
from the final (post-rescission) appropriation for PY 1995.
    For PY 1996, the State-by-State allocation formula is being applied 
to $65,486,767. The remaining $3,798,233 of the estimated PY 1996 
section 402 appropriation is being held in the section 402 national 
account to fund the housing program, the Hope, Arkansas, Migrant Rest 
Center, and other training and technical assistance projects.

Allocation Formula

    To maintain programmatic stability during the continued downsizing 
of the Federal MSFW program, the State-by-State estimated allocations 
were determined by the same formula that was used to allocate MSFW 
funds in PY 1995.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 14th day of May, 1996.

Director, Office of Special Targeted Programs.

Grant Officer, Division of Acquisition and Assistance.
