(PY)2000 Performance AGENCY: Employment and Training Administration (ETA), Labor. ACTION: Notice. SUMMARY: The Department of Labor, in collaboration with the Department of Education, announces that 12 States are eligible to apply for Workforce Investment Act
(WIA)(Pub. L. 105-220, 29 U.S.C. 2801 *et seq.* ) incentive awards under the WIA Regulations. DATES: The 12 eligible States must submit their applications for incentive funding to the Department of Labor by June 17, 2002. ADDRESSES: Submit applications to the Employment and Training Administration, Performance Accountability Task Force, 200 Constitution Avenue NW, Room N-4470, Washington, DC 20210, Attention: Christine Kulick, 202-693-3937 (phone), 202-693-3113 (fax), e-mail: *ckulick@doleta.gov.* Please be advised that mail delivery in the Washington, DC area has been inconsistent because of concerns about anthrax contamination. States are encouraged to submit applications via e-mail. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: The Performance Accountability Task Force: Christine Kulick (phone: 202-693-3937 or e-mail: *ckulick@doleta.gov* ) or Jim Aaron (phone: 202-693-2814 or e-mail: *jaaron@doleta.gov* ). (These are not toll-free numbers.) Information may also be found at the *Web site—http://usworkforce.org.* SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: After the first year of full implementation of the Workforce Investment Act across the country, 12 States (see list below) have qualified to receive a share of the $27.6 million available for incentive grant awards under WIA section 503. These funds are available to the States through June 30, 2004, to support innovative workforce development and education activities that are authorized under title I or title II (the Adult Education and Family Literacy Act (AEFLA)) of WIA, or under the Perkins Act (Pub. L. 105-332, 20 U.S.C. 2301 *et seq.* ) In order to qualify for a grant award, a State must have exceeded performance levels, agreed to by the Secretaries, Governor, and State Education Officer, for outcomes in WIA title I, adult education (AEFLA), and vocational education (Perkins Act) programs. The goals included placement after training, retention in employment, and improvement in literacy levels, among other measures. After review of the performance data submitted by States to the Department of Labor and to the Department of Education, each Department determined which States would qualify for incentives for its program(s). ( *See* below for a list of the States that qualified under all three programs.) These lists of eligible States were compared, and States that qualified under all three programs are eligible to receive an incentive grant award. The amount that each State is eligible to receive was determined by the Department of Labor and the Department of Education and is based on WIA section 503(c) (20 U.S.C. 9273(c)) and is proportional to the total funding received by these States for the three programs. The States eligible to apply for incentive grant awards, and the amounts they are eligible to receive, are listed below: State Amount of award 1. Connecticut $ 1,652,500 2. Florida $ 3,000,000 3. Idaho $ 975,500 4. Illinois $ 3,000,000 5. Indiana $ 2,896,500 6. Kentucky $ 3,000,000 7. Maine $ 819,700 8. Massachusetts $ 2,887,400 9. Michigan $ 3,000,000 10. North Dakota $ 750,000 11. Texas $ 3,000,000 12. Wisconsin $2,599,000 These eligible States must submit their applications for incentive funding to the Department of Labor by June 17, 2002. As set forth in the provisions of WIA section 503(b)(2) (20 U.S.C. 9273(b)(2)), 20 CFR 666.220(b) and Training and Employment Guidance Letter
(TEGL)No. 20-01, Application Process for Workforce Investment Act
(WIA)Section 503 Incentive Grants, Program Year 2000 Performance, which is available at *http://usworkforce.org* , the application must include assurances that: A.

The State and the eligible agency, as appropriate, exceeded the State adjusted levels of performance for WIA title I, the State adjusted levels of performance for the AEFLA, and the performance levels established for Perkins Act programs. In addition, States are requested to provide a description of the planned use of incentive grants as part of the application process, to ensure that the State's planned activities are innovative and are otherwise authorized under the WIA title I, the AEFLA, and/or the Perkins Act as amended, as required by WIA Section 503(a). TEGL No. 20-01 provides the specific application process that States must follow to apply for these funds.
