        participants placed in law enforcement employment positions in 
        that year (not counting participants placed under a model 
        agreement under subsection (f)); as
            ``(B) the population of that State bears to the total 
        population of all the States.
    ``(2) The Secretary of Defense may vary the placement ratios 
determined for States under paragraph (1) if the Secretary is unable to 
enter into a sufficient number of agreements under subsection (d) with 
law enforcement agencies in all States to permit compliance with the 
ratios.
