‘‘Corporation’’) was established through 

the LSC Act ‘‘for the purpose of 

providing financial support for legal 

assistance in noncriminal matters or 

proceedings to persons financially 

unable to afford such assistance.’’ 42 

U.S.C. 2996b(a). LSC performs this 

function primarily through distributing 

funding appropriated by Congress to 

independent civil legal aid programs 

providing legal services to low-income 

persons throughout the United States 

and its possessions and territories. 42 

U.S.C. 2996e(a)(1)(A). LSC designates 

geographic service areas and structures 

grants to support services to the entire 

eligible population in a service area or 

to a specified subpopulation of eligible 

clients. 45 CFR 1634.2(c) & (d), 

1634.3(b). LSC awards these grants 

through a competitive process. 45 CFR 

part 1634. Congress has mandated that 

LSC ‘‘insure that grants and contracts 

are made so as to provide the most 

economical and effective delivery of 

legal assistance to persons in both urban 

and rural areas.’’ 42 U.S.C. 2996f(a)(3). 

Throughout the United States and 

U.S. territories, LSC provides Basic 

Field—General grants to support legal 

services for eligible clients. LSC 

provides funding for those grants on a 

per-capita basis using the poverty 

population as determined by the U.S. 

Census Bureau every three years. Pub. L. 

104–134, tit. V, 501(a), 110 Stat. 1321, 

1321–50 (1996), as amended by Pub. L. 

113–6, div. B, tit. IV, 127 Stat. 198, 268 

(2013) (LSC funding formula adopted in 

1996, incorporated by reference in LSC’s 

appropriations thereafter, and amended 

in 2013). Since its establishment in 

1974, LSC has also provided 

subpopulation grants to support legal 

services for the needs of agricultural 

workers through Basic Field—Migrant 

grants under the authority of the LSC 

Act to structure grants for the most 

economic and effective delivery of legal 

assistance. 42 U.S.C. 2996f(a)(3). 

Congress amended the LSC Act in 1977 

to require that LSC conduct a study of 

the special legal needs of various 

subpopulations, including migrant or 

seasonal farm workers, and develop and 

implement appropriate means of 

addressing those needs. 42 U.S.C. 

2996f(h). LSC’s study, issued in 1979, 

concluded that specialized legal 

expertise and knowledge were needed 

to address the distinctive ‘‘unmet 

special legal problems’’ that migrant and 

seasonal farmworkers shared because of 

their status as farmworkers. Legal 

Services Corporation, Special Legal 

Problems and Problems of Access to 

Legal Services of Veterans, Migrant and 

Seasonal Farm Workers, Native 

Americans, People, with Limited 

English-Speaking Ability, and 

Individuals in Sparsely Populated 

Areas, 1979. 

LSC provides funding for Basic 

Field—Migrant grants on a per-capita 

basis by determining the size of the 

subpopulation and separating that 

population from the overall poverty 

population for the applicable geographic 

area or areas. LSC expects programs 

receiving these grants to serve the legal 

needs of a broad range of eligible 

agricultural workers and their 

dependents who have specialized legal 

needs that are most effectively and 

efficiently served through a dedicated 

grant program. LSC currently uses data 

regarding migrant and seasonal 

farmworkers, and their families, from 

the early 1990s, with some adjustments 

based on changes in the general poverty 

population. These data are no longer 

current and do not reflect the entire 

population served by these grants. 

The United States Department of 

Labor, Employment and Training 

Administration (ETA) collects data 

regarding agricultural workers for 

federal grants serving the needs of the 

American agricultural worker 

population. The U.S. Census Bureau 

does not maintain data regarding 

agricultural workers. LSC has contracted 

with ETA for more current data 

regarding the agricultural worker 

population served by these grants. ETA 

has provided LSC with these data, 

including state-by-state breakdowns. 

The changes in data will result in 

changes in funding levels for these 

grants. A description of these data and 

their development is available at: http:// 

www.lsc.gov/about/

mattersforcomment.php. 

LSC management has proposed to the 

LSC Board of Directors (Board) that LSC 

use the new data for these grants as 

follows: 

(1) Implement the new data for 

calculation of these grants beginning in 

January 2016; 

(2) phase in the funding changes to 

provide intermediate funding halfway 

between the old and new levels for 2016 

and to fully implement the new levels 

for 2017; 

(3) update the data every three years 

on the same cycle as LSC updates 

poverty population data from the U.S. 

Census Bureau for the distribution of 

LSC’s Basic Field—General grants. 

LSC Management presented this 

proposal to the Board’s Operations and 

Regulations Committee (Committee) on 

January 22, 2015. The Committee then 

recommended Management’s proposal 

to the full board on January 24, 2015. 

The Board adopted the recommendation 

of Management and the Committee that 

LSC publish this notice of 

Management’s proposal in the Federal 

Register for comment. The Committee 

will meet to consider all comments 

received and make a recommendation to 

the Board for a final decision. 

LSC management’s proposal and 

related documents are available at:

LSC invites public comment on this 

issue. Interested parties may submit 

comments to LSC before the deadline 

stated above.
