3. Background. The funds for the allotments announced in this TEGL are part of the
funds appropriated in the Department of Labor Appropriations Act, 2012, Title I of
Division F of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2012, P.L. 112-74, signed into
law December 23, 2011 (from this point forward, referred to as “the Act”). Section
527 of Title V of Division F of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2012,
incorporated a mandatory across the board (ATB) rescission of 0.189 percent
impacting the PY 2012 funding for the programs covered by this TEGL. For the
Adult and Dislocated Worker programs, the 0.189 percent rescission only impacts
the “base” funds that states receive on July 1, 2012.
The Act also states:
A local board may still transfer up to 30 percent of funds between the Adult
and Dislocated Worker funding streams if approved by the Governor.
A local board may still award contracts for “class-size training,” that is, a
local board may still award a contract to an institution of higher education or
other eligible training provider if the local board determines that it would
facilitate the training of multiple individuals in high-demand occupations, if
such contract does not limit customer choice.
Notwithstanding section 128(a)(1) of the Workforce Investment Act (WIA),
the amount available for the Governor for statewide workforce investment
activities shall not exceed 5 percent of the amount allotted to the State from
each of the WIA Youth, Adult, and Dislocated Worker, PY 2012
appropriations.
Salary caps from FY 2010 are maintained (i.e., $179,700). No funds under the
header “Employment and Training Administration” may be used by a
recipient or sub-recipient to pay the salary and bonus of an individual, either
as direct costs or indirect costs, at a rate in excess of Executive Level II, and
states may establish lower salary caps.
The WIA allotments for states are based on formula provisions defined in WIA (see
Attachment A for WIA and Wagner-Peyser formula descriptions).
The WIA allotments for the outlying areas (e.g., American Samoa, Guam, Northern
Marianas, Palau, and the Virgin Islands) are based on a discretionary formula as
authorized under WIA Title I. The Marshall Islands and Micronesia no longer
receive WIA Title I funding; instead, these areas now receive funding from the
Department of Education’s appropriation (See Compact of Free Association
Amendments of 2003, P.L. 108-188 (December 17, 2003), codified at 48 U.S.C.
1921d(f)(1)(B)(iii)(the “Compact”). The Compact also specified that the Republic of
Palau remained eligible for WIA Title I funding. See 48 U.S.C. 1921d(f)(1)(B)(ix).
The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2012 (in the Department of Education’s
General Provisions at Section 306, Title III, Division F, P.L. 112-74) amended the
Compact to extend the availability of WIA Title I funding to Palau through FY 2012.
In addition to this TEGL, allotments and descriptions of the allotment formulas will
be published in the Federal Register. Comments may be submitted to the
Employment and Training Administration (ETA), on the formula used to distribute
funds to outlying areas.
4. State WIA Youth Activities Funds: Title I--Chapter 4--Youth Activities.
A. State Allotments. The appropriated level for PY 2012 for WIA Youth Activities
totals $824,353,022, which includes $12,365,295 for Native Americans,
$809,926,844 for states, and $2,060,883 for outlying areas. These amounts include
the ATB 0.189 percent rescission. Attachment B contains a breakdown of the
WIA Youth Activities program allotments by state for PY 2012 and provides a
comparison of these allotments to PY 2011. Please note that the Department of
Labor (the Department) will provide the Native American Youth allotments in a
separate TEGL.
The three data factors required by WIA for the PY 2012 Youth Activities state
formula allotments are:
1. The number of unemployed for Areas of Substantial Unemployment (ASUs)
averages for the 12-month period, July 2010 through June 2011, as prepared
by the states since PY 2006 using special 2000 Census data based on
households, obtained under contract with the Census Bureau and provided to
states by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS);
2. The number of excess unemployed individuals or the ASU excess (depending
on which is higher) averages for the same 12-month period as used for ASU
unemployed data; and,
3. The number of economically disadvantaged youth (age 16 to 21, excluding
college students and military) from special 2000 Census tabulations.
Since the total amount available for states in PY 2012 is below the required $1
billion threshold specified in WIA section 127(b)(1)(C)(iv)(IV), which was also
the case in PY 2011, the WIA additional minimum provisions are not applicable.
Instead, as required by WIA, the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) section
262(a)(3) (as amended by section 701 of the Job Training Reform Amendments of
1992) minimums of 90 percent hold-harmless of the prior year allotment
percentage and 0.25 percent state minimum floor apply. WIA also requires the
application of a 130 percent stop-gain of the prior year allotment percentage.
B. PY 2012 Funding WIA Agreement/Notice of Obligations (NOOs). Upon
execution of the PY 2012 WIA Annual Funding Agreement, Youth program
funds will be available for use by states.
C. Within-State Allocations. States must distribute WIA Youth Activities funds
among local workforce investment areas (subject to reservation of the 5 percent
limitation for statewide workforce investment activities as discussed in the
Background Section of this TEGL) in accordance with the provisions of WIA
section 128 and the approved WIA/Wagner-Peyser Act State Plan. For purposes
of identifying ASUs for the within-state Youth Activities allocation formula, as
done since PY 2006, states should continue to use the special 2000 Census data
based on households which were obtained under contract with the Census
Bureau and provided to states in October 2006 by BLS. States must use such data
for this purpose until further notice. For purposes of developing the number of
economically disadvantaged Youth Activities for the statutory formula, states
should continue to use the special 2000 Census data provided to them for the
within-state youth allocations beginning in PY 2004.
It should be noted that the most current Census, conducted in 2010, did not
include the long form survey which ETA would have used to update the
economically disadvantaged data from the 2000 Census. Instead, ETA will
continue to work with the Census Bureau over the next year to use data from the
American Community Survey (ACS). ETA will alert states when data from the
ACS are available for use in within-state allocation formulas; however, updated
data will not be available for use with PY 2012 funding.
D. Transfers of Funds. Local workforce investment areas lack the authority to
transfer funds to or from the Youth Activities program.
E. Reallotment of Funds. The Secretary of Labor reallots Youth Activities program
formula funds, as provided for by WIA Section 127(c), based on completed PY
financial reports submitted by the states. Reallotment of funds among states
under WIA will occur during PY 2012 based on state obligations made during PY
2011 (20 CFR §667.150).
5. State Adult Employment and Training Activities Funds: Title I--Chapter 5--Adult
and Dislocated Worker Employment and Training Activities.
A. State Allotments. The total appropriated funds for PY 2012 for Adult Activities
are $770,810,637 of which $768,883,610 is for states and $1,927,027 is for outlying
areas. These amounts include the ATB 0.189 percent rescission. Attachment C
shows the PY 2012 Adult Activities allotments and a comparison to PY 2011
allotments by state.
The three formula data factors for the Adult Activities program are the same as
those used for the Youth Activities formula, except the Department used data for
the number of economically disadvantaged adults (age 22 to 72, excluding
college students and military). Since the total amount available for the Adult
Activities program for states in PY 2012 is below the required $960 million
threshold specified in WIA section 132(b)(1)(B)(iv)(IV), as was also the case in PY
2011, the WIA additional minimum provisions are not applicable. Instead, as
required by WIA, the JTPA section 262(a)(3) (as amended by section 701 of the
Job Training Reform Amendments of 1992) minimums of 90 percent hold-
harmless of the prior year allotment percentage and 0.25 percent state minimum
floor apply. Also, like the Youth program, the Department used the provision
applying the 130 percent stop-gain of the prior year allotment percentage.
B. PY 2012 Funding WIA Agreement/NOOs. For PY 2012, Congress appropriated
funds for this program in two portions: $58,810,637 available for obligation on
July 1, 2012 (PY 2012) (including 0.189 percent rescission), and $712,000,000
available for obligation on October 1, 2012 (FY 2013). The Department prorated
allotments to states and outlying areas based on these total amounts and will
issue two NOOs: one for July 1, 2012, under the PY 2012 WIA grant agreement,
and the other for October 1, 2012, also under the PY 2012 WIA grant agreement
(see Attachment D).
C. Within-State Allocations. States must distribute WIA Adult Activities funds for
PY 2012 allotments among local workforce investment areas (subject to
reservation of the 5 percent limitation for statewide workforce investment
activities) in accordance with the provisions in WIA section 133 and the
approved WIA/Wagner Peyser Act State Plan.
Similar to the Youth Activities program, for purposes of identifying ASUs for the
within-state Adult Activities allocation formula, states must use the special 2000
Census data provided to them by BLS in October 2006 until further notice. For
purposes of developing the number of economically disadvantaged adults for
the statutory formula, states should continue to use the special 2000 Census data
provided to them for the within-state Adult Activities allocations beginning in
PY 2004.
It should be noted that the most current Census, conducted in 2010, did not
include the long form survey which ETA would have used to update the
economically disadvantaged data from the 2000 Census. Instead, ETA will
continue to work with the Census Bureau over the next year to use data from the
ACS. ETA will alert states when data from the ACS are available for use in
within-state allocation formulas; however, updated data will not be available for
use with PY 2012 funding.
D. Transfers of Funds. WIA section 133(b)(4) provides the authority for local
workforce investment areas, with approval of the Governor, to transfer up to 20
percent of the Adult Activities funds to Dislocated Worker Activities, and up to
20 percent of Dislocated Worker Activities funds to Adult Activities. The
Department of Labor Appropriations Act, 2012, provided that notwithstanding
section 133(b)(4), up to 30 percent of these funds could be transferred between
programs, which is applicable for the life of the funds.
E. Reallotment of Funds. Reallotment of Adult Activities program formula funds,
as provided for by WIA section 132(c), is based on completed PY financial
reports submitted by the states. Reallotment of funds among states under WIA
will occur during PY 2012 based on state obligations of PY 2011 funds made
during PY 2011 (20 CFR §667.150).
6. State Dislocated Worker Employment and Training Funds: Title I--Chapter 5-
Adult and Dislocated Worker Employment and Training Activities.
Appropriated funds for PY 2012 for the Dislocated Worker Activities program total
$1,232,217,892, with $1,008,151,464 for states, $3,080,545 for outlying areas, and
$220,985,883 for the National Reserve. These amounts include the 0.189 percent
rescission.
A. State Allotments. Attachment E shows the PY 2012 Dislocated Worker Activities
fund allotments by state and a comparison to PY 2011.
The three data factors required in WIA for the PY 2012 Dislocated Worker state
formula allotments are:
1. The number of unemployed, averaged for the 12-month period, October
2010 through September 2011;
2. The number of excess unemployed, averaged for the 12-month period,
October 2010 through September 2011; and
3. The number of long-term unemployed, averaged for the 12-month period,
October 2010 through September 2011.
B. PY 2012 Funding WIA Agreement/NOOs. For PY 2012, Congress appropriated
funds for this program in two portions for both formula funds and National
Reserve funds. For formula funds, $148,151,464 is available for obligation on July
1, 2012 (PY 2012) (including the 0.189 percent rescission), and $860,000,000 is
available for obligation on October 1, 2012 (FY 2013). For the National Reserve,
which includes funds for the outlying areas, $24,066,428 is available for obligation
on July 1, 2012 (PY 2012) (including the 0.189 percent rescission), and $200,000,000
is available for obligation on October 1, 2012 (FY 2013). Allotments to states and
outlying areas are prorated based on the two amounts for formula funds and
National Reserve, respectively. Allotments will be issued in two NOOs: one for
July 1, 2012, under the PY 2012 WIA grant agreement, and the other for October 1,
2012, (also under the PY 2012 WIA grant agreement) (see Attachment F).
C. Within-State Allocations. Dislocated Worker Activities funds for PY 2012
allotments are to be distributed among local workforce investment areas (subject
to the governor’s reservation of up to 25 percent for statewide rapid response
activities and the 5 percent limitation for statewide workforce investment
activities as discussed in the Background Section of this TEGL in accordance with
the provisions in WIA section 133 and the approved WIA/Wagner-Peyser Act
State Plan.
D. Transfers of Funds. WIA section 133(b)(4) provides the authority for local
workforce investment areas, with approval of the Governor, to transfer up to 20
percent of the Adult Activities funds to Dislocated Worker Activities, and up to 20
percent of Dislocated Worker Activities funds to Adult Activities. The
Department of Labor Appropriations Act, 2012, provided that notwithstanding
section 133(b)(4), up to 30 percent of these funds could be transferred between
programs, which is applicable for the life of the funds.
E. Reallotment of Funds. Reallotment of Dislocated Worker program formula
funds, as provided for by WIA section 132(c), is based on completed PY financial
reports submitted by the states. Reallotment of funds among states under WIA will
occur during PY 2012 based on state obligations made during PY 2011 (20 CFR
§667.150).
7. Wagner-Peyser Employment Service Final Allotments. The appropriated level for
PY 2012 for grants for the Employment Service programs totals $700,841,900
(including the 0.189 percent rescission). After determining the funding for outlying
areas, allotments to states are calculated using the formula set forth at section 6 of
the Wagner-Peyser Act (29 U.S.C. 49e). PY 2012 formula allotments are based on
each state’s share of calendar year 2011 monthly averages of the Civilian Labor
Force (CLF) and unemployment. The distribution of Wagner-Peyser Act funds for
PY 2012 includes $699,133,491 for states, as well as $1,708,409 for outlying areas.
Attachment G shows the distribution of PY 2012 ES formula amounts by state
compared to PY 2011.
Under section 7(b) of the Wagner-Peyser Act, ten percent of the total sums allotted
to each state shall be reserved for use by the governor to provide performance
incentives, services for groups with special needs, and for the extra costs of
exemplary models for delivering job services.
8. Workforce Information Grants. Total funds for PY 2012 are $31,939,520 (including
the 0.189 percent rescission). Funds are distributed to states by administrative
formula with $176,655 for Guam and the Virgin Islands. The remaining funds are
distributed to the states with 40 percent distributed equally to all states, and 60
percent distributed based on each state’s share of the Civilian Labor Force for the 12
months ending September 2011. The allotment figures are listed in Attachment H.
Policy guidance on the use of workforce information grants will be forthcoming.
9. Submission. In order to achieve greater efficiencies and as part of ETA’s ongoing
effort to streamline the mandatory grant award process, all States are required to
submit an electronically signed copy of an SF 424, Application for Federal Assistance
and the WIA Agreement (Attachment I) through Grants.gov under announcement
name: ETA/TEGL/PY 12-01. An electronically submitted SF 424 and WIA
Agreement through Grants.gov constitute official signed documents and should
reflect the combined funding for all three WIA programs (Dislocated Worker, Adult
& Youth). The closing date for receipt of the documents under this TEGL is March
29, 2012. The WIA Youth funds will be awarded in April 2012, and the WIA
Dislocated Worker and Adult funds will be awarded in July 2012.
States must submit a second SF 424 and the ES Agreement (Attachment J)
electronically through http://www.grants.gov under announcement name:
ETA/TEGL/PY 12-01 no later than June 15, 2012, for the Wagner-Peyser
Employment Service Program and the Workforce Information Grants to States
Allotments for PY 2012. This SF 424 and ES Agreement constitute official signed
documents and should reflect the combined funds for the Wagner-Peyser
Employment Service Program and the Workforce Information Grants funds. The
Wagner-Peyser Employment Service Program and Workforce Information funds
will be awarded in July 2012.
The process can be complicated and time-consuming. States are strongly advised to
initiate the process as soon as possible and to plan for time to resolve technical
problems if necessary.
States should immediately initiate and complete the “Get Registered” registration
steps at http://www.grants.gov/applicants/get_registered.jsp. States should read
through the registration process carefully before registering. Time should be
factored in for electronic submission in order to avoid unexpected delays that could
result in the rejection of the documents. The site also contains registration checklists
to help you walk through the process. The Department strongly recommends that
States download the “Organization Registration Checklist” at
http://www.grants.gov/assets/Organization_Steps_Complete_Registration.pdf
and prepare the information requested before beginning the registration process.
Reviewing and assembling required information before beginning the registration
process will alleviate last minute searches for required information and save time.
The first SF 424 should include the amount for all three funding streams, youth,
adult and dislocated worker, and reflect the amount entered in item #18, Estimated
Funding. The States must have a D–U–N–S® Number and must register with the
Federal Central Contractor Registry (CCR). Include the EIN and DUNS numbers in
item #s 8b and 8c, respectively. Item #11 must include the Catalog of Federal
Domestic Assistance Number for all three funding streams, 17.278 – WIA Dislocated
Worker, 17.259 - WIA Youth, and 17.258 - WIA Adult. The second SF 424 will
include two programs, Employment Service (Wagner-Peyser) and Workforce
Information Grants to States allotments for PY 2012 and the combined amount for
both programs is to be entered in item #18, Estimated Funding. Also, include the
EIN and DUNS numbers in item #s 8b and 8c, respectively. The Catalog of Federal
Domestic Assistance Number for the two programs is 17.207.
If States encounter a problem with Grants.gov and do not find an answer in any of
the other resources, call 1-800-518-4726 or 606-545-5035 to speak to a Customer
Support Representative or email [email protected]. The Contact Center is
open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It is closed on federal holidays.
For further information about the submission requirement, please contact Ms.
Sharon Carter, Grants Management Specialist, Division of Workforce System
Federal Assistance at (202) 693-3323. States should e-mail all submission questions
to [email protected] and must specifically reference ETA-TEGL-PY-12-01, and
along with question(s), include a contact name, fax, and phone number.
10. Reporting. For the WIA formula programs, states are required to submit the seven
designated WIA quarterly financial status reports covering funds received for each
of the programs (including separate reports for each of the fund year periods for the
Adult and Dislocated Worker Activities programs -- July 1 funds and October 1
funds). These seven WIA reports provide financial data for statewide Youth,
statewide Adult, statewide Dislocated Worker, statewide Rapid Response
(Dislocated Worker Activities), local Youth, local Adult, and local Dislocated Worker
activities. States are also required to submit the designated financial reports each
quarter for the Wagner-Peyser Act funds and the Workforce Information Grant
funds.
11. Inquiries. Questions regarding these allotments may be directed to the
appropriate Regional Office. Information on allotments and planning requirements
may also be found on the ETA Web site at http://www.doleta.gov.

this agreement, the “Modification 0” supplement to the agreement will serve as the
initial PY 2012, Notice of Obligation. Funds are obligated for the amount indicated in
the “Modification 0” document in accordance with the Grantee’s PY 2012 allotment
levels. The Federal obligation level will be amended by the Grant Officer to increase (or

8. Veterans’ Priority Provisions: This program, funded by the U.S. Department of Labor
is subject to the provisions of the “Jobs for Veterans Act” (JVA), Public Law 107-288
(38 USC 4215), as implemented by the Final Rule published on December 19, 2008 at
73 Fed. Reg. 78132. The JVA provides priority of service to veterans and spouses of
eligible veterans for the receipt of employment, training, and placement services.
Agreement by a program operator to implement priority of service is a condition of
receipt of DOL funds. The Planning Guidance (either the Stand-Alone Planning
Guidance at 73 FR 72853 (December 1, 2008)) or the Unified Planning Guidance at 73
FR 73730 (December 3, 2008) and TEGL 10-09 requires states to describe the policies
and strategies in place to ensure, pursuant to the Jobs for Veterans Act and the
regulations, that priority of service is provided to veterans (and eligible spouses) who
otherwise meet the eligibility requirements for qualified employment and training
programs funded in whole or in part by the U.S. Department of Labor. In addition,
the states are required to provide assurances that they will comply with the Veterans’
Priority of Service Provisions established by the Jobs for Veterans Act (38 USC 4215)
and TEGL 10-09.
9. Buy American Notice Requirement: It is the sense of Congress that, to the greatest extent
practicable, all equipment and products purchased with funds made available under the
Workforce Investment Act should be American made. See WIA Section 505—Buy
American Requirements.
10. Salary and Bonus Limitations: In compliance with Pub. L. 111-117 (Division D, sec.
107), none of the funds appropriated in the Act under the heading ‘Employment and
Training’ shall be used by a recipient or subrecipient of such funds to pay the salary
and bonuses of an individual, either as direct costs or indirect costs, at a rate in excess
of Executive Level II. This limitation shall not apply to vendors providing goods and
services as defined in OMB Circular A-133. Where States are recipients of such funds,
States may establish a lower limit for salaries and bonuses of those receiving salaries
and bonuses from subrecipients of such funds, taking into account factors including
the relative cost-of-living in the State, the compensation levels for comparable State or
local government employees, and the size of the organizations that administer Federal
programs involved including Employment & Training Administration programs. See
Training and Employment Guidance Letter number 5-06 for further clarification.
11. Intellectual Property Rights: The Federal Government reserves a paid-up,
nonexclusive and irrevocable license to reproduce, publish or otherwise use, and to
authorize others to use for federal purposes: i) the copyright in all products
developed under the grant, including a subgrant or contract under the grant or
subgrant; and ii) any rights of copyright to which the grantee, subgrantee or a
contractor purchases ownership under an award (including but not limited to
curricula, training models, technical assistance products, and any related materials).
Such uses include, but are not limited to, the right to modify and distribute such
products worldwide by any means, electronically or otherwise. Federal funds may
not be used to pay any royalty or licensing fee associated with such copyrighted
material, although they may be used to pay costs for obtaining a copy which is limited
to the developer/seller costs of copying and shipping. If revenues are generated
through selling products developed with grant funds, including intellectual property,
these revenues are program income. Program income is added to the grant and must
be expended for allowable grant activities.
If applicable, the following needs to be on all products developed in whole or
in part with grant funds:
This workforce solution was funded by a grant awarded by the U.S.
Department of Labor’s Employment and Training Administration. The
solution was created by the grantee and does not necessarily reflect the official
position of the U.S. Department of Labor. The Department of Labor makes no
guarantees, warranties, or assurances of any kind, express or implied, with
respect to such information, including any information on linked sites and
including, but not limited to, accuracy of the information or its completeness,
timeliness, usefulness, adequacy, continued availability, or ownership. This
solution is copyrighted by the institution that created it. Internal use, by an
organization and/or personal use by an individual for non-commercial
purposes, is permissible. All other uses require the prior authorization of the
copyright owner.”
12. ACORN Prohibition. Section 511 of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2010 (P.L.
111-117, Division E) (“CAA”), requires that no direct or indirect funding from the
Consolidated Appropriations Act may be provided to the Association of Community
Organizations for Reform Now (“ACORN”) or any of its subsidiaries through
Federal grantees or contractors. DOL is required to take steps so that no Federal
funds from the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2010, are awarded or obligated by
DOL grantees or contractors to ACORN or its subsidiaries as subgrantees,
subcontractors, or other subrecipients. This prohibition applies not only to a direct
recipient of Federal funds, but also to a subrecipient (e.g., a subcontractor,
subgrantee, or contractor of a grantee).
13. WIA PY 2012 Agreement Transparency Act: Federal Funding Accountability and
Transparency Act of 2006 Pub. L. 109-282 as amended by section 6202 of Pub. L. 110-
252 (“FFATA”). Grantees must ensure that they have the necessary processes and
systems in place to comply with the reporting requirements of FFATA. See Training
and Employment Guidance Letter (TEGL) No. 11-10 (issued November 15, 2010)

Change 1), and Attachment A to this agreement.
14. Signatory Information: By signing below, the signatories agree to the terms and
conditions of this agreement, including all applicable assurances and certifications,
on behalf of their respective agencies indicated below. In the absence of a signature
by the Grantee only, this award is nevertheless effective by virtue of Grantee’s

Grantee’s expenditure of any funds properly granted hereunder constitutes
acceptance of the award, including any new or additional terms and conditions as
may be attached hereto.

implemented a new Office of Management and Budget (OMB)-approved
quarterly financial reporting form to be used for financial reporting starting with
the quarter which ended September 30, 2007. The reporting instructions for the
newly approved form are posted on the www.doleta.gov/grants website. State

or deny approval is delegated to the State for programs funded under this
Agreement except that the Secretary reserves the right to require transfer of title
on nonexpendable Automated Data Processing Equipment in accordance with
the provisions at 29 CFR 97.32 (g). Pursuant to 20 CFR 652.8(d)(2), the Secretary
reserves the right to exercise prior approval authority in other areas, after
providing advance notice to the State. Accordingly, capital expenditures for
real property are allowable as a direct cost only if approved by the Secretary
(Grantor).
- For personnel benefit costs charged to Wagner-Peyser Act funds on behalf of
Employment Service (ES) employees who are members of fringe benefit plans
which do not meet the requirements of OMB Circular A-87, Attachment B, Item
11, the costs of employer contributions or expenses incurred for ES fringe benefit
plans are allowable as an addition to OMB Circular A-87, provided that:
(i) For retirement plans: (A) all covered employees joined the plan before
October 1, 1983; (B) the plan is authorized by State law; (C) the plan was
previously approved by the Secretary; (D) the plan is insured by a private carrier
which is licensed to operate this type of plan in the applicable State; and (E) any
dividends or similar credits because of participation in the plan are credited
against the next premium falling due under the contract;
(ii) For all ES fringe benefit plans other than retirement plans, if the Secretary
granted a time extension after October 1, 1983, to the existing approval of such a
plan, costs of the plan are allowable until such time as the plan is comparable in
cost and benefits to fringe benefit plans available to other similarly employed ES
employees. At such time as the cost and benefits of an approved fringe benefit
plan are equivalent to the cost and benefits of plans available to other similarly
employed ES employees, the time extension will cease and the cited
requirements of OMB Circular A-87 will apply; and
(iii) For retirement plans and all other fringe benefit plans covered in (i) and (ii)
of this paragraph, any additional costs resulting from improvements of the plans
made after October 1, 1983, are not chargeable to funds under this agreement.

supplemented by the Wagner-Peyser Act regulations at 20 CFR 652.8(f).
Intergovernmental Personnel Act (42 U.S.C. 4701) and amendments thereto.
9. Veterans’ Priority Provisions: This program, funded by the U.S. Department of
Labor is subject to the provisions of the “Jobs for Veterans Act” (JVA), Public Law 107-
288 (38 USC 4215), as implemented by the Final Rule published on December 19, 2008 at
73 Fed. Reg. 78132. The JVA provides priority of service to veterans and spouses of
certain veterans for the receipt of employment, training, and placement services. The
Planning Guidance (either the Stand-Alone Planning Guidance at 73 FR 72853
(December 1, 2008)) or the Unified Planning Guidance at 73 FR 73730 (December 3,
2008) requires states to describe the policies and strategies in place to ensure, pursuant
to the Jobs for Veterans Act and the regulations, that priority of service is provided to
veterans (and certain spouses) who otherwise meet the eligibility requirements for all
employment and training programs funded by the U.S. Department of Labor. In
addition, the states are required to provide assurances that they will comply with the
Veterans’ Priority Provisions established by the Jobs for Veterans Act (38 USC 4215).
10. Salary and Bonus Limitations. In compliance with Department of Labor
Appropriations Act, 2010, Division D of Pub. L. 111-117, sec. 107, none of the funds
appropriated in the Act under the heading ‘Employment and Training’ shall be used
by a recipient or subrecipient of such funds to pay the salary and bonuses of an
individual, either as direct costs or indirect costs, at a rate in excess of Executive Level
II. This limitation shall not apply to vendors providing goods and services as defined
in OMB Circular A-133. Where States are recipients of such funds, States may
establish a lower limit for salaries and bonuses of those receiving salaries and
bonuses from subrecipients of such funds, taking into account factors including the
relative cost-of-living in the State, the compensation levels for comparable State or
local government employees, and the size of the organizations that administer
Federal programs involved including Employment & Training Administration
programs. See Training and Employment Guidance Letter number 5-06 for further
clarification.
11. Intellectual Property Rights: The Federal Government reserves a paid-up,
nonexclusive and irrevocable license to reproduce, publish or otherwise use, and to
authorize others to use for federal purposes: i) the copyright in all products developed
under the grant, including a subgrant or contract under the grant or subgrant; and ii)
any rights of copyright to which the grantee, subgrantee or a contractor purchases
ownership under an award (including but not limited to curricula, training models,
technical assistance products, and any related materials). Such uses include, but are not
limited to, the right to modify and distribute such products worldwide by any means,
electronically or otherwise. Federal funds may not be used to pay any royalty or
licensing fee associated with such copyrighted material, although they may be used to
pay costs for obtaining a copy which is limited to the developer/seller costs of copying
and shipping. If revenues are generated through selling products developed with grant
funds, including intellectual property, these revenues are program income. Program
income is added to the grant and must be expended for allowable grant activities.
If applicable, the following needs to be on all products developed in whole or
in part with grant funds:

12. W-PA PY 2012/FY 2013 Agreement Transparency Act: Federal Funding
Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006 Pub. L. 109-282 as amended by section
6202 of Pub. L. 110-252 (“FFATA”). Grantees must ensure that they have the necessary
processes and systems in place to comply with the reporting requirements of FFATA.
See Training and Employment Guidance Letter (TEGL) No. 11-10 (issued November 15,
2010) http://wdr.doleta.gov/directives/attach/TEGL/TEGL11-10acc.pdf (and
upcoming Change 1), and Attachment A to this agreement.
13. ACORN Prohibition: Section 511 of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2010
(P.L. 111-117, Division E) (“CAA”), requires that no direct or indirect funding from
the Consolidated Appropriations Act may be provided to the Association of
Community Organizations for Reform Now (“ACORN”) or any of its subsidiaries
through Federal grantees or contractors. DOL is required to take steps so that no
Federal funds from the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2010, are awarded or
obligated by DOL grantees or contractors to ACORN or its subsidiaries as
subgrantees, subcontractors, or other subrecipients. This prohibition applies not only
to a direct recipient of Federal funds, but also to a subrecipient (e.g., a subcontractor,
subgrantee, or contractor of a grantee).
14. Signatory Information: By signing below, the signatories agree to the terms and
conditions of this agreement, including all applicable assurances and certifications, on
behalf of their respective agencies indicated below. In the absence of a signature by the
Grantee only, this award is nevertheless effective by virtue of Grantee’s electronic
signature on the SF-424 upon which this award is based. In addition, the Grantee’s
expenditure of any funds properly granted hereunder constitutes acceptance of the
award, including any new or additional terms and conditions as may be attached
hereto.
