SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to section 162 of the Job Training
Partnership Act (JTPA), the Employment and Training Administration of
the Department of Labor 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 $64,218,000
for the JTPA section 401 programs for Program Year (PY) 1994 (July 1,
1994-June 30, 1995); and $15,943,033 for the JTPA, Title II, Part B,
Summer Youth Employment and Training Program (SYETP) for the Summer of
Calendar Year 1994. The allocations reflect the 1990 U.S. Census data,
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designation withdrawn, legislative changes, et al.
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.

Assistant Secretary of Labor.
