DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Employment and Training Administration
Notice on Reallotment of Workforce Investment Act (WIA) Title I
Formula Allotted Funds for Dislocated Worker Activities for Program
Year (PY) 2010
AGENCY: Employment and Training Administration, Labor.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Workforce Investment Act, Public Law 105-220, requires the
Secretary of Labor (Secretary) to conduct reallotment of dislocated
worker formula allotted funds based on State financial reports
submitted as of the end of the prior PY. This notice publishes PY 2010
dislocated worker funds for recapture by State and the amount to be
reallotted to eligible States.
DATES: This notice is effective March 16, 2011.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Grace Kilbane, Administrator, U.S.
Department of Labor, Office of Workforce Investment, Employment and
Training Administration, 200 Constitution Avenue, NW., Room S-4231,
Washington, DC. Telephone (202) 693-3980 (this is not a toll-free
number) or fax (202) 693-3981.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: WIA Section 132(c) requires the Secretary to
conduct reallotment of WIA funds for the prior program year in any case
where unobligated balances exceeded twenty percent. The procedures the
Secretary uses for recapture and reallotment of funds are described in
WIA regulation at 20 Code of Federal Regulations Section 667.150. For
PY 2009 funds, financial reports were analyzed and found zero instances
for the WIA Youth and Adult programs in which unobligated balances
exceeded twenty percent. For the Dislocated Worker program, however,
there were two States that had unobligated PY 2009 funds in excess of
20 percent. Therefore, a total of $408,982 will be recaptured from PY
2010 funding from these two States and reallotted to the remaining
States, as required by WIA Section 132(c). The description of the
methodology used for the calculation of the recapture/reallotment
amounts and the distribution of the changes to PY 2010 formula
allotments for dislocated worker activities are attached.
For any State from which funds are being recaptured, WIA Section
132(c)(5) requires the governor to prescribe equitable procedures for
reacquiring funds from the State and local areas.

Dislocated Worker State Formula PY 2010 Reallotment Methodology
Reallotment Summary
This year, the Employment and Training Administration (ETA)
analyzed State Workforce Investment Act (WIA) Dislocated Worker 9130
financial reports from the 6/30/10 reporting period for program year
(PY) 2009 to determine if any State had unobligated funds in excess of
twenty percent of their PY 2009 allotment amount. If so, that amount
will be recaptured from PY 2010 funds and realloted among eligible
States.
Source Data: State WIA 9130 Financial Status Reports.
Program:
State Dislocated Worker.
Rapid Response.
Local Dislocated Worker (includes local administration).
Period: June 30, 2010.
Years Covered: PY 2009.
Reallotment Calculation Process
(1) Determine the unobligated balance: In order to accomplish this,
ETA computes the State's total amount of PY 2009 State obligations
(including FY 2010 funds) for the Dislocated Worker (DW) program. State
obligations are the sum of DW statewide activities obligations, Rapid
Response obligations, and 100 percent of local DW program funds (which
includes funds for local administration). The State's total unobligated
balance for the DW program is the 2009 DW allotment amount minus the
total DW obligations. (Note: for re-allotment purposes, DW allotted
funds transferred to the Navajo Nation are added back to Arizona, New
Mexico, and Utah local DW authorized amounts).
(2) Excluding State administrative costs: Section 667.150 of the
regulations provides that the recapture calculations exclude the
reserve for State administration, which is part of the DW statewide
activities. Data on State administrative amounts authorized and
obligated are not reported on WIA 9130 financial reports. In the
preliminary calculation to determine States potentially liable for
recapture, the DW portion of the State administrative amount authorized
is estimated by calculating the five percent maximum amount for State
DW administrative costs using the DW State allotment amounts. For the
DW portion of the State administrative amount obligated, 100 percent of
the estimated authorized amount is treated as obligated.
(3) Follow-up with States potentially liable for recapture: ETA
requests that those States potentially liable for recapture provide
additional data on State administrative amounts included in the PY 2009
and FY 2010 Statewide Activities amounts (authorized and obligated as
of 6/30/10). If a State provides actual State DW administrative costs,
authorized and obligated, in the comments section of revised 9130
reports, this data replaces the estimates. Based on the requested
additional actual data submitted by potentially liable States on
revised reports, the DW total allotment for these States is reduced by
the DW portion of the State administrative amount authorized. Likewise,
the DW total obligations for these States are reduced by the DW portion
of the obligated State administrative funding.
(4) Those States (including those adjusted by actual State
administrative data) with unobligated balances exceeding 20 percent of
the combined PY2009 DW allotment amount will have their PY 2010 DW
funding (from the FY 2011 advance portion of PY 2010 DW funding made
available in the FY 2010 Appropriations Act) reduced (recaptured) by
the amount of the excess.
(5) Finally, States with unobligated balances which do not exceed
20 percent (eligible States) will receive a share of the total
recaptured amount (based on their share of the total PY 2009 DW
allotments of eligible States) in their PY 2010 DW funding (the FY 2011
advance portion of PY 2010 DW funding made available in the FY 2010
Appropriations Act).
