Total Number of Hours Required for Reporting Burden Per Year .................. 192 672 672 672

Note: Number of reports required per entity

per quarter/per year is impacted by the 3 year

life of each year of appropriated funds, i.e.,

PY 1997 and 1998 funds are available for

expenditure in PY 1999, thus 3 reports reflect

3 available funding years. DOL estimates 16

entities reporting for PY 1999. Beginning in

PY 2000, all entities (56) are required to

report under WIA.

Total Burden Cost (capital/startup):

$0.

Total Burden Cost (operating/

maintaining): $0.

Description: The proposed

Information Collection Request (ICR)

incorporates the necessary reporting

instructions for States to report financial

data related to Workforce Investment

Act programs to DOL. These

instructions have been prepared in

response to the requirement set forth at

20 CFR 667.300, for DOL to issue

financial reporting instructions to

States; and to ensure State compliance

with the reporting elements contained

in the Workforce Investment Act (WIA)

of 1998, Subtitle E. Sec. 185.

The WIA requires quarterly financial

reports which shall include information

identifying all program and activity

costs by cost category in accordance

with generally accepted accounting

principles and by year of appropriation.

The WIA also requires reporting any

income or profits earned, such

including such income or profits earned

by subrecipients and any costs incurred

(such as stand-in costs) that are

otherwise allowable except for funding

limitations. In addition, WIA requires

the reporting of costs only as

administrative or programmatic, with

computerization/technology costs not

included in the administrative cost limit

calculation.

The Standard Form 269 has been

modified to provide the six reporting

formats which will be used for WIA

reporting. Separate reporting formats

will be needed for: (1) Local area youth,

(2) local area adults, (3) local area

dislocated workers, (4) local

administration, (5) Statewide activities

(15% total Federal allotment), and (6)

Statewide rapid response.

ETA is designing software that will

contain the data elements required for

each of the reporting formats.

Instructions corresponding to the

required data elements also will be

provided to the States in the software

package. Transmittal of this data will

occur on a quarterly basis via the

Internet.

The data collection and reporting

requirements requested by the

Employment and Training

Administration are necessary to

effectively manage and evaluate the

financial status of the WIA program, to

measure regulatory compliance, to

prepare required reports to Congress,

and for audit purposes.
