Job Training Partnership Act: Native American Programs; Proposed 
Total Allocations and Allocation Formulas for Program Year 1995 Regular 
Program and Calendar Year 1995 Summer Youth Employment and Training 
Program

AGENCY: Employment and Training Administration (ETA), Labor.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The ETA of the Department of Labor (DOL) is publishing the 
proposed Native American allocations, distribution formulas and 
rationale, and individual grantee planning estimates for Program Year 
(PY) 1995 (July 1, 1995-June 30, 1996) for regular programs funded 
under Title IV-A of the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA), and for 
Calendar Year (CY) 1995 for Summer Youth Employment and Training 
Programs (SYETP) funded under Title II-B of the JTPA.

DATES: Written comments on this proposal are invited and must be 
received on or before March 13, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Send written comments to: Mr. Paul A. Mayrand, Director, 
Office of Special Targeted Programs, Employment and Training 
Administration, room N-4641, 200 Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, 
DC 20210.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Mr. Thomas M. Dowd, Phone: 202-219-8502 (this is not a toll free 
number).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to Section 162 of the JTPA, ETA of 
the DOL publishes below for review and comment the proposed allocations 
and distribution formulas for areas to be served by Native American 
grantees to be funded under JTPA Section 401, and JTPA Title II, Part 
B. The amounts to be distributed are $64,080,040 for the JTPA Section 
401 programs for PY 1995 (July 1, 1995-June 30, 1996); and $15,768,370 
for the JTPA Title II, Part B, SYETP for the Summer of CY 1995. The 
planning estimates reflect the existing grantees and their currently 
assigned areas, and are subject to change for such reasons as 
Administrative Law Judge decisions, the possibility that a grantee will 
want to have its designation withdrawn, and legislative changes.
    The formula for allocating JTPA Section 401 funds provides that 25 
percent of the funding will be based on the number of unemployed Native 
Americans in the grantee's area, and 75 percent will be based on the 
number of poverty-level Native Americans in the grantee's area.
    The formula for allocating SYETP funds divides the funds among 
eligible recipients based on the proportion that the number of Native 
American youths in a recipient's area bears to the total number of 
Native American youths in all eligible recipients' areas.
    The rationale for the above formulas is that the number of poverty-
level persons, unemployed persons, and youths among the Native American 
population is indicative of the need for training and employment funds.
    Statistics on youths, unemployed persons, and poverty-level persons 
among Native Americans used in the above programs are derived from the 
Decennial Census of the Population, 1990.

    Signed at Washington, D.C., this 6th day of February 1995.
Douglas Ross,
Assistant Secretary of Labor.
