3. Background. The planned transition of participants following the national grantee
   competition is scheduled for October 1, 2012. Therefore, current national grantees will
   continue service through the first quarter of PY 2012. The original TEGL 26-11, issued on
   April 30, 2012, provided funding and allocation information for only the states and territories
   but did not include the national grantee allocations. This change1 includes the allocations and
   necessary planning instructions for current national grantees for the PY 2012 1st quarter.

4. Overall Approach. The Department of Labor (the Department) will issue new grants to
   current grantees for the first quarter of PY 2012 to continue services in their current areas.
   These new grants will be one quarter’s proportional share, i.e. 25 percent of the PY 2012
   funding to serve clients during the first quarter (July 1 – September 30, 2012). Current
   grantees must submit the requested documents (see #7 below) by June 18, 2012. The
   remaining PY 2012 funds will be allocated after the announcement of the SGA results.

   After the results of the SGA are announced, current national grantees who applied under the
   competition and were successful will receive a modification of the new grant for the
   remainder of the program year October 1, 2012 – June 30, 2013.

5. Notice of Obligation (NOO). The Department will issue NOOs with new grant numbers
   and allocation amounts for the SCSEP program to continuing national grantees for PY 2012
   1st quarter.

6. PY 2012 Program Allotments. See Attachment A for funding amounts and authorized
   positions.

7. Inquiries. Questions regarding these allotments may be directed to the appropriate Federal
   Project Officer. Information on the allotments and planning requirements may also be found
   in the SGA/ DFA PY-11-04 available at www.doleta.gov/grants/find_grants.cfm.

8. Schedule and Action Requested. Current national grantees must submit

   •   SF-424
   •   SF-424A
   •   Budget Narrative for the first quarter allocations
   •   Signed Programmatic Assurances
   •   Program Narrative
   •   Any Optional Special Requests

   No other narrative information will be required. We will provide a generic Statement of
   Work to grantees for PY 2012 to use in place of a more detailed Program Narrative. Funding


   amounts and authorized position allocations are in Attachment A. Documents should be
   submitted to [email protected] by June 18, 2012.

       Develops and implements methods to recruit minority populations to ensure they are
       enrolled at least in proportion to their numbers in the population in the area.
       Develops and implements strategies to recruit applicants who have priority of service as
       defined in OAA section 518(b) (1)-(2) and by the Jobs for Veterans Act, P.L. 107-288.
       Individuals have priority who:
           a) Are covered persons in accordance with the Jobs for Veterans Act (covered
              persons – veterans and eligible spouses, including widows and widowers – who
              are eligible for SCSEP must receive services instead of, or before, non-covered
              persons);
           b) Are 65 years or older;
           c) Have a disability;
           d) Have limited English proficiency;
           e) Have low literacy skills;
           f) Reside in a rural area;
           g) Have low employment prospects;
           h) Have failed to find employment after utilizing services provided through the One-
              Stop Delivery System;
           i) Are homeless or are at risk for homelessness.


Assessment
       Assesses participants at least twice per 12 month period.
       Uses assessment information to determine the most appropriate community service
       assignments for participants.

Individual Employment Plan (IEP)
       Establishes an initial goal of unsubsidized employment for all participants.
       Updates the IEP at least as frequently as assessments occur (at least twice per 12 month
       period).
       Modifies the IEP as necessary to reflect other approaches to self-sufficiency, if it
       becomes clear that unsubsidized employment is not feasible for a participant.
       For participants who will reach the individual durational limit or would not otherwise
       achieve unsubsidized employment, includes provision in the IEP to transition to other
       services.

Community Service Assignment (CSA)
       Ensures that the initial CSA is based on the assessment done at enrollment.

       Uses the IEP to determine when, if appropriate, to rotate participants through assignments
       to acquire skills necessary for unsubsidized employment.

       Selects host agencies that are designated 501(c) (3) organizations or public agencies.

       Ensures procedures are in place to assure adequate supervision of participants at host
       agencies.

       Ensures procedures are in place to ensure safe and healthy working conditions.

Recertification of Participants
       Recertifies the income eligibility of each participant at least once every 12 months, or
       more frequently if circumstances warrant.


Physical Examinations
       Offers physical examinations to participants upon program entry, and each year
       thereafter, as a benefit of enrollment.
       Obtains a written waiver from each participant who declines to have a physical
       examination.
       Grantee does not receive a copy or use the results of the physical examination to establish
       eligibility or for any other purpose.


Host Agencies
       Develops and implements methods for recruiting new host agencies to provide a variety
       of training options that will enable participants to increase their skill level and transition
       to unsubsidized employment.
       Maintenance of Effort: Community service assignments do not reduce the number of
       employment opportunities or vacancies that would otherwise be available to individuals
       who are not SCSEP participants.
            Community service assignments do not displace currently employed workers
                (including partial displacement, such as a reduction in non-overtime work, wages,
                or employment benefits).
            Community service assignments do not impair existing contracts or result in the
                substitution of Federal funds for other funds in connection with work that would
                otherwise be performed.
            Community service assignments do not assign or continue to assign a participant
                to perform the same work, or substantially the same work, as that performed by an
                individual who is on layoff.

        orientation, training and community service assignment. The applicable wage is the
        highest of the Federal, state, or local minimum wage.

Participant Benefits
        Provides workers’ compensation and other benefits that are required by state or Federal
        law (such unemployment insurance), and the costs of physical examinations.
        Establishes written policies relating to compensation for scheduled work hours during
        which grantee or sub-recipients are closed for Federal holidays.
        Establishes written policies relating to approved breaks in participation and any necessary
        sick leave that is not part of an accumulated sick leave program.
        Does not use grant funds to pay the cost of pension benefits, annual leave, accumulated
        sick leave, or bonuses.

Durational Limits
     Maximum Average Project Duration: 27 Months
        Complies with average project duration of 27 months or less, unless DOL approves an
        extension to 36 months.

     Maximum Individual Participant Duration: 48 Months
        Complies with the requirement that participants may participate in the program no longer
        than 48 months (whether or not consecutively) unless the grantee’s approved policy
        allows for an extension of time and the participant meets the extension criteria.
        Notifies participants of its policy pertaining to the maximum duration requirement,
        including the possibility of a waiver, if applicable, at the time of enrollment and each
        year.
        Provides 30-day written notice to participants prior to durational limit exit from the
        program

        assistance before the participants’ maximum enrollment duration has expired.
        .


Termination Procedures
       Provides a 30-day written notice for all terminations that states the reason for termination
       and informs the participants of grievance policies and right to appeal.

Written Termination Policies
Written termination policies are in effect and provided to participants at enrollment for:
               Provision of false information
               Incorrect initial eligibility determination
               Income ineligibility determined at recertification
               Participant has reached individual durational limit
               Participant has become employed while enrolled
               Cause (a for-cause termination policy must be approved by the Department prior
               to implementation)
               IEP-related termination
                   IEP terminations are based solely on a participant’s refusal to accept a
                      reasonable number of job offers or referrals to unsubsidized employment
                      (or to conduct a reasonable search for employment) consistent with their
                      IEP, unless there are extenuating circumstances.

Equitable Distribution
       Complies with the Equitable Distribution (ED) plan for each state in which grantee
       operates and will only make changes in the location of authorized positions within a state
       in accordance with the state ED plan and with the approval of the Department.

       operators on a regular basis.
       Ensures that sub-recipients and local project operators receive adequate resources to
       effectively operate local projects.
       Trains sub-recipients and local project operators on SCSEP financial requirements to help
       them effectively manage their own expenditures, and provide more general financial
       training as needed.
       Ensures that all financial reports are accurate and submits them in a timely manner, as
       required.

       barriers to employment, national grantees give special consideration to organizations
       (including former recipients of national grants) with demonstrated expertise in serving
       individuals with barriers to employment, as defined in the statute.

Complaint Resolution

       Establishes and uses written grievance procedures for complaint resolution for applicants,

                PROGRAM YEAR 2012 OPTIONAL SPECIAL REQUESTS


Applicants with special requests in one or more of the following areas must submit their requests
and any supporting documentation as an attachment to their PY 2012 grant applications.
Requests for approval should provide a substantive rationale, e.g., improved program
management, better service to participants, or least disruption possible to participants.

Additional Funds for Participant Training and Supportive Services – Older Americans Act
(OAA), Section 502(c)(6)(C). Any applicant that wishes to request additional funds must
provide the specific information listed in this section. Applicants requesting additional funds for
participant training and supportive services should not submit a separate budget narrative for
these activities. Instead, the detailed budget narrative in the grant application should identify the
specific training and supportive service activities that, if approved, the applicant will provide to
participants. The applicant should also include costs associated with this request in the SF-424
and SF-424A.

The 2006 Amendments to the OAA permit an exception to the 75 percent minimum level of
expenditures on participant wages and fringe benefits. This exception allows grantees to request
to use not less than 65 percent of program funds for wages, benefits, and other costs, so that up to
an additional 10 percent of funds are available for training and supportive services to directly
benefit participants. As required in Section 502(C)(6)(C)(IV) of the OAA, applicants seeking
this waiver must provide a work plan that includes the following:

     (a)   A detailed description of the additional training and supportive services;
     (b) An explanation of how activities will directly benefit participants, improve project
         effectiveness, and improve employment outcomes for individuals served;
     (c)   A sequence and timeline for these activities;
     (d) If applicable, an explanation concerning whether displacement of eligible individuals
         or elimination of positions will occur, and information on the number of individuals
         displaced or positions eliminated; and
     (e)   Which performance measures the applicant expects will improve from the
           expenditure of additional funds, and the amounts by which it expects each measure
           will improve.

Increase in Administrative Cost Limitations – 20 CFR 641.870. The Department of Labor
(Department) may authorize an increase in the amount available for administrative costs to not
more than 15 percent if it determines that it is necessary to carry out the project, and if the
applicant demonstrates that:


               (a)   It is incurring major administrative cost increases in necessary program
                     components; or
               (b)   The number of employment positions or eligible minority individuals
                     participating in the project will decline if administrative costs are not
                     increased; or
               (c)   The project size is so small that the amount of administrative expenses
                     incurred to carry out the project necessarily exceeds 13.5 percent of project
                     funding.
General statements that costs have increased do not constitute adequate justification. The
applicant must identify which costs have increased, why they have increased, and how these
costs relate to program operations.

Change 4-Year Durational Limit Waiver Options. Grantees received approval for one of the
following durational limit policies to take effect in PY 2011:

       (1)   Option 1: Grantee does not offer extensions to any participants
       (2)   Option 2: Grantee offers extensions to each and every participant who meets any
             one of the seven waiver factors
       (3)   Option 3: Grantee offers extensions to each and every participant who meets a
             specific subset of the seven waiver factors.

Applicants should describe: (a) their currently-approved individual durational limit policy; and
(b) which of the three options above the applicant proposes to adopt, and the effective date of
implementing this revised policy for new and current enrollees. Please note that any new policy
for 2012 requires Departmental approval and must have an effective date of at least 120 days
after approval receipt.

Extension of Maximum Project Duration – OAA Section. 502(b)(1)(C)(ii). The maximum
average project duration based on overall participation is 27 months. Applicants may request
permission from the Department to increase their maximum average project duration to 36
months.

On-the-Job Experience (OJE) Training Option. If an applicant wishes to utilize OJE as an
additional training option, it must meet the requirements stipulated in Older Worker Bulletin 04-

04. Applicants must provide an OJE policy and sample contracts to the Department for approval
before they can exercise this option.

Cross-Border Agreements – 20 CFR 641.515(c). State applicants may enter into agreements
to permit cross-border enrollment of eligible participants. These agreements must cover both
state and national grantee slots, and must be submitted for approval by the Department.
