Abstract
This notice announces allotments for PY 2024 for WIOA Title I Youth, Adult, and Dislocated Worker Activities programs; allotments for Employment Service (ES) activities under the Wagner-Peyser Act for PY 2024, and the allotments of Workforce Information Grants to States for PY 2024. WIOA allotments for states and the state allotments for the Wagner-Peyser Act ES are based on formulas defined in their respective statutes. WIOA requires allotments for the Outlying Areas to be competitively awarded rather than based on a formula determined by the Secretary of Labor (Secretary) as occurred under the Workforce Investment Act (WIA). However, for PY 2024, the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024 waives the competition requirement, and the Secretary is using the discretionary formula rationale and methodology for allocating PY 2024 funds for the Outlying Areas (American Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, the Republic of Palau, and the United States Virgin Islands) that was published in the Federal Register (Feb. 17, 2000). WIOA specifically included the Republic of Palau as an Outlying Area, except during any period for which the Secretary of Labor and the Secretary of Education determine that a Compact of Free Association is in effect and contains provisions for training and education assistance prohibiting the assistance provided under WIOA; no such determinations prohibiting assistance have been made. The formula that the Department of Labor (Department) used for PY 2024 is the same formula used in PY 2023 and is described in the section on Youth Activities program allotments. The Department invites comments only on the formula used to allot funds to the Outlying Areas.

Program Year (PY) 2024 Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act
(WIOA) Title I Allotments; PY 2024 Title III Wagner-Peyser Act
Employment Service Allotments and PY 2024 Workforce Information Grants
AGENCY: Employment and Training Administration, Labor.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This notice announces allotments for PY 2024 for WIOA Title I
Youth, Adult, and Dislocated Worker Activities programs; allotments for
Employment Service (ES) activities under the Wagner-Peyser Act for PY
2024, and the allotments of Workforce Information Grants to States for
PY 2024. WIOA allotments for states and the state allotments for the
Wagner-Peyser Act ES are based on formulas defined in their respective
statutes. WIOA requires allotments for the Outlying Areas to be
competitively awarded rather than based on a formula determined by the
Secretary of Labor (Secretary) as occurred under the Workforce
Investment Act (WIA). However, for PY 2024, the Further Consolidated
Appropriations Act, 2024 waives the competition requirement, and the
Secretary is using the discretionary formula rationale and methodology
for allocating PY 2024 funds for the Outlying Areas (American Samoa,
Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, the Republic of
Palau, and the United States Virgin Islands) that was published in the
Federal Register (Feb. 17, 2000). WIOA specifically included the
Republic of Palau as an Outlying Area, except during any period for
which the Secretary of Labor and the Secretary of Education determine
that a Compact of Free Association is in effect and contains provisions
for training and education assistance prohibiting the assistance
provided under WIOA; no such determinations prohibiting assistance have
been made. The formula that the Department of Labor (Department) used
for PY 2024 is the same formula used in PY 2023 and is described in the
section on Youth Activities program allotments. The Department invites
comments only on the formula used to allot funds to the Outlying Areas.
DATES: The Department must receive comments on the formula used to
allot funds to the Outlying Areas by June 10, 2024.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department is announcing WIOA allotments
for PY 2024 for Youth Activities, Adult and Dislocated Worker
Activities, Wagner-Peyser Act PY 2024 allotments, and PY 2024 Workforce
Information Grant allotments. This notice provides information on the
amount of funds available during PY 2024 to states with an approved
WIOA Combined or Unified State Plan, and information regarding
allotments to the Outlying Areas.
On March 23, 2024, the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act,
2024, Pub. L. 118-47 was signed into law (``the Act''). The Act,
Division D, title I, sections 106(b) and 107 of the Act allows the
Secretary of Labor (Secretary) to set aside up to 0.5 percent of each
discretionary appropriation for activities related to program integrity
and 0.75 percent of most operating funds for evaluations. For 2024, as
authorized by the Act, the Department has set aside $8,322,000 of the
Training and Employment Services (TES) and $2,190,000 of the State
Unemployment Insurance and Employment Services Operations (SUIESO)
appropriations impacted in this FRN for these activities. ETA reserved
these funds from the WIOA Adult, Youth, Dislocated Worker, Wagner-
Peyser Act Employment Service, and Workforce Information Grant program
budgets. Any funds not utilized for these reserve activities will be
provided to the states. We also have attached tables listing the PY
2024 allotments for programs under WIOA Title I Youth Activities (Table
A), Adult and Dislocated Workers Employment and Training Activities
(Tables B and C, respectively), and the PY 2024 Wagner-Peyser Act
allotments (Table D). We also have attached the PY 2024 Workforce
Information Grant table (Table E) and the total WIOA Youth, Adult and
Dislocated Worker funding for Outlying Areas (Table F).
Youth Activities Allotments. The appropriated level for PY 2024 for
WIOA Youth Activities totals $948,130,000. After reducing the
appropriation by $3,131,000 for set asides authorized by the Act and
reserving $925,200 for Migrant and Seasonal Farmworker (MSFW) Youth,
$944,073,800 is available for Youth Activities. Table A includes a
breakdown of the Youth Activities program allotments for PY 2024 and
provides a comparison of these allotments to PY 2023 Youth Activities
allotments for all States and Outlying Areas. The WIOA Youth formula
has a section in WIOA for a reservation for Migrant and Seasonal
Farmworker (MSFW) Youth if the appropriation exceeds $925,000,000. Per
WIOA 127(a)(1), ETA reserved 4 percent ($925,200) of the excess amount
for MSFW Youth. For the Native American Youth program, the total amount
available is 1.5 percent of the total amount for Youth Activities
(after set asides authorized by the Act) after the MSFW Youth
reservation (in accordance with WIOA section 127). The total funding
available for the Outlying Areas was reserved at 0.25 percent of the
amount appropriated for Youth Activities (after set asides authorized
by the Act) after the amount reserved for MSFW Youth and Native
American Youth (in accordance with WIOA section 127(b)(1)(B)(i)). On
December 17, 2003, Pub. L. 108-188, the Compact of Free Association
Amendments Act of 2003 (``the Compact''), was signed into law. The
Compact specified that the Republic of Palau remained eligible for WIA
Title I funding. See 48 U.S.C 1921d(f)(1)(B)(ix). WIOA sec. 512(g)(1)
updated the Compact to refer to WIOA funding. The National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 (Division A, Title XII, subtitle
F, section 1259C(c) of Pub. L. 115-91) authorized WIOA Title I funding
to the Republic of Palau through FY 2024.
Under WIA, the Secretary had discretion for determining the
methodology for distributing funds to all Outlying Areas. Under WIOA
the Secretary must award the funds through a competitive process.
However, for PY 2024, the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024
waives the competition requirement regarding funding to Outlying Areas
(e.g., American Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana
Islands, the Republic of Palau, and the United States Virgin Islands).
For PY 2024, the Department used the same methodology used since PY
2000 (i.e., we distribute funds among the Outlying Areas by formula
based on relative share of the number of unemployed, a minimum of 90
percent of the prior year allotment percentage, a $75,000 minimum, and
a 130 percent stop gain of the prior year share). For the relative
share calculation in PY 2024, the Department continued to use the data
obtained from the 2020 Census for American Samoa, Guam, the
Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and the United States
Virgin Islands. For the Republic of Palau, the Department used data
from Palau's 2020 Census. The Department will accept comments on this
methodology. The Act additionally allows Outlying Areas to submit a
single application according to the requirements established by the
Secretary for a consolidated grant for Adult, Youth, and Dislocated
Worker funds. Subject to approval of the grant application and other
reporting requirements of the Secretary, the Act allows Outlying Areas
receiving a consolidated grant to use those funds interchangeably
between Adult, Youth, and Dislocated Worker programs or activities.
Table F includes the total Youth, Adult and Dislocated Worker funding
for Outlying Areas.
After the Department calculated the amount for the MSFW Youth,
Outlying Areas and the Native American program, the amount available
for PY 2024 allotments to the states is $927,587,911. This total amount
is below the required $1 billion threshold specified in WIOA sec.
127(b)(1)(C)(iv)(IV); therefore, the Department did not apply the WIOA
additional minimum provisions. Instead, as required by WIOA, the
minimums of 90 percent of the prior year allotment percentage and 0.25
percent state minimum floor apply. WIOA also provides that no state may
receive an allotment that is more than 130 percent of the allotment
percentage for the state for the previous year. The three data factors
required by WIOA sec. 127(b)(1)(C)(ii) for the PY 2024 Youth Activities
state formula allotments are, summarized slightly, as follows:
(1) The average number of unemployed individuals in Areas of
Substantial Unemployment (ASUs) for the 12-month period, July 2022-June
2023 in each state compared to the total number of unemployed
individuals in ASUs in all states;
(2) Number of excess unemployed individuals or excess unemployed
individuals in ASUs (depending on which is higher) averages for the
same 12-month period used for ASU unemployed data compared to the total
excess unemployed individuals or ASU excess number in all states; and
(3) Number of disadvantaged youth (age 16 to 21, excluding college
students not in the workforce and military) from special tabulations of
data from the American Community Survey (ACS), which the Department
obtained from the Census Bureau in each state compared to the total
number of disadvantaged youth in all states. ETA obtained updated data
for use in PY 2023 and the same data was used in PY 2024. The Census
Bureau collected the data used in the special tabulations for
disadvantaged youth between January 1, 2016-December 31, 2020.
[[Page 39652]]
For purposes of identifying ASUs for the Youth Activities allotment
formula, the Department continued to use the data made available by BLS
(as described in the Local Area Unemployment Statistics (LAUS)
Technical Memorandum No. S-23-12). For purposes of determining the
number of disadvantaged youth, the Department used the special
tabulations of ACS data available at: <a href="https://www.dol.gov/agencies/eta/budget/formula/disadvantagedyouthadults">https://www.dol.gov/agencies/eta/budget/formula/disadvantagedyouthadults</a>. See TEGL No. 01-23 for further
information.
Adult Employment and Training Activities Allotments. The total
appropriated funds for Adult Activities in PY 2024 is $885,649,000.
After reducing the appropriated amount by $2,351,000 for set asides
authorized by the Act, $883,298,000 remains for Adult Activities, of
which $881,089,755 is for states and $2,208,245 is for Outlying Areas.
Table B shows the PY 2024 Adult Employment and Training Activities
allotments and a state-by-state comparison of the PY 2024 allotments to
PY 2023 allotments.
In accordance with WIOA, the Department reserved the total
available for the Outlying Areas at 0.25 percent of the full amount
appropriated for Adult Activities (after set asides authorized by the
Act). As discussed in the Youth Activities section above, in PY 2024
the Department will distribute the Adult Activities funding for the
Outlying Areas, using the same principles, formula, and data as used
for outlying areas for Youth Activities. The Department will accept
comments on this methodology. After determining the amount for the
Outlying Areas, the Department used the statutory formula to distribute
the remaining amount available for allotments to the states. The
Department did not apply the WIOA minimum provisions for the PY 2024
allotments because the total amount available for the states was below
the $960 million threshold required for Adult Activities in WIOA sec.
132(b)(1)(B)(iv)(IV). Instead, as required by WIOA, the minimums of 90
percent of the prior year allotment percentage and 0.25 percent state
minimum floor apply. WIOA also provides that no state may receive an
allotment that is more than 130 percent of the allotment percentage for
the state for the previous year. The three formula data factors for the
Adult Activities program are the same as those used for the Youth
Activities formula, except the Department used data for the number of
disadvantaged adults (age 22 to 72, excluding college students not in
the workforce and military).
Dislocated Worker Employment and Training Activities Allotments.
The amount appropriated for Dislocated Worker activities in PY 2024
totals $1,396,412,000. The total appropriation includes formula funds
for the states, while the National Reserve is used for National
Dislocated Worker Grants, technical assistance and training,
demonstration projects, Workforce Opportunity for Rural Communities,
Community College Grants, and the Outlying Areas' Dislocated Worker
allotments. After reducing the appropriated amount by $2,840,000 for
set asides authorized by the Act, a total of $1,393,572,000 remains
available for Dislocated Worker activities. The amount available for
Outlying Areas is $3,483,930, leaving $297,375,070 for the National
Reserve and a total of $1,092,713,000 available for states. Table C
shows the PY 2024 Dislocated Worker activities allotments and a state-
by-state comparison of the PY 2024 allotments to PY 2023 allotments.
Similar to the Adult Activities program, the Department reserved
the total available for the Outlying Areas at 0.25 percent of the full
amount appropriated for Dislocated Worker Activities (after set asides
authorized by the Act). Similar to Youth and Adult funds, instead of
competition, in PY 2024 the Department will use the same pro rata share
as the areas received for the PY 2024 WIOA Adult Activities program to
distribute the Outlying Areas' Dislocated Worker funds, the same
methodology used in PY 2023. The Department will accept comments on
this methodology.
The three data factors required in WIOA sec. 132(b)(2)(B)(ii) for
the PY 2024 Dislocated Worker state formula allotments are, summarized
slightly, as follows:
(1) Relative number of unemployed individuals in each state,
compared to the total number of unemployed individuals in all states,
for the 12-month period, October 2022-September 2023;
(2) Relative number of excess unemployed individuals in each state,
compared to the total excess number of unemployed individuals in all
states, for the 12-month period, October 2022-September 2023; and
(3) Relative number of long-term unemployed individuals in each
state, compared to the total number of long-term unemployed individuals
in all states, for the 12-month period, October 2022-September 2023.
In PY 2024, under WIOA the Dislocated Worker formula uses minimum
and maximum provisions. No state may receive an allotment that is less
than 90 percent of the state's prior year allotment percentage (stop
loss) or more than 130 percent of the state's prior year allotment
percentage (stop gain).
Wagner-Peyser Act ES Allotments. The appropriated level for PY 2024
for ES grants totals $675,052,000. After reducing the appropriated
amount by $2,159,000 for set asides authorized by the Act, $672,893,000
is available for ES grants. After determining the funding for Guam and
the United States Virgin Islands, the Department calculated allotments
to states using the formula set forth at section 6 of the Wagner-Peyser
Act (29 U.S.C. 49e). The Department based PY 2024 formula allotments on
each state's share of calendar year 2023 monthly averages of the
civilian labor force (CLF) and unemployment. Section 6(b)(4) of the
Wagner-Peyser Act requires the Secretary to set aside up to three
percent of the total funds available for ES to ensure that each state
will have sufficient resources to maintain statewide ES activities. In
accordance with this provision, the Department included the three
percent set aside funds in this total allotment. The Department
distributed the set-aside funds in two steps to states that have
experienced a reduction in their relative share of the total resources
available this year from their relative share of the total resources
available the previous year. In Step 1, states that have a CLF below
one million and are also below the median CLF density were maintained
at 100 percent of their relative share of prior year resources. ETA
calculated the median CLF density based on CLF data provided by the BLS
for calendar year 2023. The Department distributed all remaining set-
aside funds on a pro-rata basis in Step 2 to all other states
experiencing reductions in relative share from the prior year but not
meeting the size and density criteria for Step 1. The distribution of
ES funds (Table D) includes $671,252,721 for states, as well as
$1,640,279 for Outlying Areas.
Section 7(a) of the Wagner-Peyser Act (49 U.S.C. 49f(a)) authorizes
states to use 90 percent of funds allotted to a state for labor
exchange services and other career services such as job search and
placement services to job seekers; appropriate recruitment services for
employers; program evaluations; developing and providing labor market
and occupational information; developing management information
systems; and administering the work test for unemployment insurance
claimants. Section 7(b) of the Wagner-Peyser Act states that 10 percent
of the
[[Page 39653]]
total sums allotted to each state must be reserved for use by the
Governor to provide performance incentives for public ES offices and
programs, provide services for groups with special needs, and to
provide for the extra costs of exemplary models for delivering services
of the type described in section 7(a) and models for enhancing
professional development and career advancement opportunities of state
agency staff.
To provide services such as outreach to MSFWs, State Monitor
Advocate (SMA) responsibilities, and others, State Workforce Agencies,
(SWAs) must use Wagner-Peyser Act ES funding to provide employment
services to migrant and seasonal farmworkers (MSFW), which are
described at 20 CFR 651, 653, 654, and 658.
Workforce Information Grants Allotments. Total PY 2024 funding for
Workforce Information Grants allotments to states is $32,000,000. After
reducing the total by $31,000 for set asides authorized by the Act,
$31,969,000 is available for Workforce Information Grants. Table E
contains the allotment figures for each state and Outlying Area. The
Department distributes the funds by administrative formula, with a
reserve of $176,726 for Guam and the United States Virgin Islands. Guam
and the United States Virgin Islands allotment amounts are partially
based on CLF data. The Department distributes the remaining funds to
the states with 40 percent distributed equally to all states and 60
percent distributed based on each state's share of CLF for the 12
months ending September 2023.
