DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Administration 

Announcement Regarding States 

Triggering ‘‘off’’ of Tiers Three and 

Four of Emergency Unemployment 

Compensation 2008 (EUC08) 

AGENCY: Employment and Training 

Administration, Labor. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: Announcement regarding 

states triggering ‘‘off’’ of Tiers Three and 

Four of the Emergency Unemployment 

Compensation (EUC08) program. 

Public Law 111–205 extended 

provisions in Public Law 111–92 which 

amended prior laws to create a Third 

and Fourth Tier of benefits within the 

EUC08 program for qualified 

unemployed workers claiming benefits 

in high unemployment states. The 

Department of Labor produces a trigger 

notice indicating which states qualify 

for EUC08 benefits within Tiers Three 

and Four and provides the beginning 

and ending dates of payable periods for 

each qualifying state. The trigger notice 

covering state eligibility for the EUC08 

program can be found at: http:// 

ows.doleta.gov/unemploy/ 

claims_arch.asp. A new trigger notice is 

posted at this location each week that 

the program is in effect. 

Based on data published September 

21, 2010 by the Bureau of Labor 

Statistics, the following trigger changes 

have occurred for states in the EUC08 

program: 

• New Hampshire’s three month 

average seasonally-adjusted TUR for 

August declined to 5.8%, below the 

6.0% threshold to remain ‘‘on’’ Tier 

Three, hence the state triggered off of 

Tier Three. As a result, New Hampshire 

concluded its payable period in the 

third tier of the EUC program on 

October 16, 2010. Eligibility for 

claimants in New Hampshire have been 

reduced from a maximum potential 

entitlement of 47 weeks to a maximum 

potential entitlement of 34 weeks in the 

EUC program. 

• Delaware’s three month average 

seasonally-adjusted TUR for August 

2010 declined to 8.4%, below the 8.5% 

threshold to remain ‘‘on’’ Tier Four 

hence the state has triggered off of Tier 

Four. As a result, Delaware concluded 

its payable period in the Fourth tier of 

the EUC program on October 16, 2010. 

Eligibility for claimants in Delaware has 

been reduced from a maximum 

potential entitlement of 53 weeks to a 

maximum potential entitlement of 47 

weeks in the EUC program. 

Information for Claimants 

The duration of benefits payable in 

the EUC program, and the terms and 

conditions under which they are 

payable, are governed by Public Laws 

110–252, 110–449, 111–5, 111–92, 111– 

118, 111–144, 111–157, and 111–205, 

and the operating instructions issued to 

the states by the U.S. Department of 

Labor. Persons who believe they may be 

entitled to additional benefits under the 

EUC08 program, or who wish to inquire 

about their rights under the program, 

should contact their State Workforce 

Agency.
