SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under Public Law 102-477, ``Indian

tribes and Alaska Natives will be afforded the opportunity to integrate 
these services in order to improve their effectiveness, reduce 
unemployment and reach tribally-determined goals. This program 
announcement invites tribes and Alaska Natives to apply for 
participation in the demonstration project which may begin on any 
quarterly basis. Tribes will receive guidance in preparing tribal 
plans, including a copy of the reporting requirements. The guidance
