Notice of a Change in Status of an Extended Benefit (EB) Period 
for Alaska

    This notice announces a change in benefit period eligibility under 
the EB Program for Alaska.
    Summary: The following change has occurred since the publication of 
the last notice regarding the State's EB status:
     July 3, 1999--Alaska's 13-week insured unemployment rate 
for the week ending June 12, 1999 fell below 6.0 percent and was less 
than 120 percent of the average for the corresponding period for the 
prior two years, causing Alaska to trigger ``off'' EB effective July 3, 
1999.

Information for Claimants

    The duration of benefits payable in the EB Program, and the terms 
and conditions on which they are payable, are governed by the Federal-
State Extended Unemployment Compensation Act of 1970, as amended, and 
the operating instructions issued to the States by the U.S. Department 
of Labor. In the case of a State ending an EB period, the State 
employment security agency will furnish a written notice to each 
individual who is currently filing a claim for EB of the forthcoming 
end of the EB period and its effect on the

individual's rights to EB (20 CFR 615.13(c)(4)).
    Persons who believe they may be entitled to EB, or who wish to 
inquire about their rights under the programs, should contact the 
nearest State employment service office or unemployment compensation 
claims office in their locality.

    Signed at Washington, D.C., on July 6, 1999.

Assistant Secretary of Labor for Employment and Training.
