DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration


Senior Community Service Employment Program

AGENCY: Employment and Training Administration, Labor.

ACTION: Notice of Procedures for Recapture and Reobligation of 
Unexpended Program Year Grant Funds.

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

SUMMARY: the Employment and Training Administration interprets Federal 
law requirements pertaining to the 2000 Amendments to the Older 
Americans Act (OAA), Pub. L. 106-501, for the administration of the 
Senior Community Service Employment Program (SCSEP) authorized under 
Title V of the Act. These interpretations are issued in Older Worker 
Bulletins transmitted to SCSEP grantees. The Older Worker Bulletin 
described below is published in the Federal Register in order to inform 
the public.
    Older Worker bulletin No. 03-04 advises SCSEP grantees of the 
procedures for the recapture and reobligation of unexpended Program 
Year SCSEP grant funds, as authorized under section 515(c) of the OAA. 
The recaptured funds will retain their original fiscal identity--e.g., 
recaptured Program Year 2001 funds will still be considered as Program 
Year 2001 funds when reobligated.
    The Employment and Training Administration is authorized to 
reobligate such funds within two succeeding Program Years to be used 
for incentive grants technical assistance or grants or contracts for 
any other SCSEP program. The operating instructions in Older Worker 
bulletin No. 03-04 are issued to SCSEP grantees as guidance provided by 
the Employment and Training Administration in its role as administrator 
of Title V of the OAA.
    Pending the issuance of regulations implementing the provisions of 
the 2000 Amendments to the OAA, the procedures in Older Worker Bulletin 
No. 03-04 constitute the controlling guidance for SCSEP grantees 
relative to this section of the Amendments.

    Signed at Washington, DC this 27 day of May, 2003.
Emity Stover DeRocco,
Assistant Secretary of Labor.

    Attachment: Older Worker Bulletin No. 03-04.
