In accordance with section 223 of the

identify the subject firm title name to

read ‘‘Genicom Corporation, currently

known as IER, Inc.’’.

The amended notice applicable to

TA–W–37,848 is hereby issued as

follows:

All workers of Genicom Corporation,

currently known as IER, Inc., Temple, Texas

from employment on or after June 16, 1999

through August 18, 2002 are eligible to apply

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training

Administration

Workforce Investment Act; Lower

Living Standard Income Level

AGENCY: Employment and Training

Administration, Labor.

ACTION: Notice of determination of lower

living standard income level.

SUMMARY: Under Title I of the Workforce

Investment Act of 1998 (Public Law

105–220), the Secretary of Labor

annually determines the Lower Living

Standard Income Level (LLSIL) for uses

described in the Law. WIA defines the

term ‘‘Low Income Individual’’ as one

who qualifies under various criteria,

including an individual who received

income for a six-month period that does

not exceed the higher of the poverty line

or 70 percent of the lower living

standard income level. This issuance

provides the Secretary’s annual LLSIL

for 2001 and references the current 2001

Health and Human Services ‘‘Poverty

Guidelines.’’

EFFECTIVE DATE: This notice is effective

on May 9, 2001.

ADDRESSES: Send written comments to:

Mr. Ron Putz, Office of Adult Services,

Employment and Training

Administration, Department of Labor,

Room C–5325, 200 Constitution Avenue

NW., Washington, DC 20210.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr.

Ron Putz, Telephone 202–693–3575;

Fax (202) 693–3589 (these are not toll

free numbers).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: It is the

purpose of the Workforce Investment

Act of 1998 (WIA) ‘‘to provide

workforce investment activities, through

statewide and local workforce

investment systems, that increase the

employment, retention, and earnings of

participants, and increase occupational

skill attainment by participants, and, as

a result, improve the quality of the

workforce, reduce welfare dependency,

and enhance the productivity and

competitiveness of the Nation.’’

The LLSIL is used for several

purposes under WIA: specifically, WIA

Section 101(25) defines the term ‘‘low

income individual’’ for eligibility

purposes, Sections 127(b)(2)(C) and

132(b)(1)(IV) define the terms

‘‘disadvantaged adult,’’ and

‘‘disadvantaged youth’’ in terms of the

poverty line of LLSIL for purpose of

State allotments. The Governor and

State/Local Workforce Investment

Boards need the LLSIL for determining

eligibility for youth, eligibility for

employed adult workers for certain

services, and for the Work Opportunity

Tax Credit (WOTC). We encourage the

Governors and State/Local Workforce

Investment Boards to consult WIA and

its Regulations and Preamble at 29 CFR

Part 652 et al., for more specific

guidance in applying the LLSIL to

program requirements. The Department

of Health and Human Services

published the annual update of the

poverty-level guidelines in the Federal

Register at 65 Fed. Reg. 7555, (Feb. 16,

2001), The HHS 2001 Poverty guidelines

may also be found on the Internet at:

http://www.aspe.os.dhhs.gov/poverty/

01poverty.htm.

ETA plans to have the 1001 LLSIL

available on its web site at: http://

www.wdsc.org/llsil/llsi101.htm

WIA Section 101(24) defines the

LLSIL as ‘‘that income level (adjusted

for regional, metropolitan, urban, and

rural differences and family size)

determined annually by the Secretary

[of Labor] based on the most recent

lower living family budget issued by the

Secretary.’’ The most recent lower living

family budget was issued by the

Secretary of labor in the fall of 1981.

The four-person urban family budget

estimates, previously published by the

Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS),

provided the basis for the Secretary to

determine the LLSIL. BLS terminated

the four-person family budget series in

1982, after publication of the fall 1981

estimates. Currently BLS provides data

to ETA, from which it develops the

LLSIL tables.

The Employment and Training

Administration (ETA) published the

2000 updates to the LLSIL in the

Federal Register of May 12, 2000, at 65

FR 30630. This notice again updates the

LLSIL to reflect cost of living increases

for 2000 by applying the percentage

change in the December 2000 Consumer

Price Index for All Urban Consumers

(CPI–U), compared with the December

1999 CPI–U, to each of the May 12,

2000, LLSIL figures. Those updated

figures for a family of four are listed in

Table 1 below by region for both

metropolitan and nonmetropolitan

areas. Figures in all of the

accompanying tables are rounded up to

the nearest ten. Since ‘‘low income

individual,’’ ‘‘disadvantaged adult,’’ and

‘‘disadvantaged youth’’ may be

determined by family income at 70

percent of the LLSIL, pursuant to WIA

Sections, 101(25), 127(b)(2)(C) and

132(b)(1)(B)(v)(IV), respectively, those

figures are listed below as well.
