Wagner-Peyser Funding Allocation for Employment Service Activities
The Wagner-Peyser Act, as amended by the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA), 
Title V, establishes a formula for distributing funds to states for employment 
services activities. With this formula, Texas will receive $51,320,141 for 
Program Year 1992, beginning July 1, 1992 and ending June 30, 1993. Ninety 
percent of this amount must be used for basic labor exchange services under  
sec.501, subsection 7(a); 10% will be reserved for use at the governor's 
discretion within legislatively designated parameters under subsection 7(b).
Texas Civil Statutes, Article 5221b-10, designates the Texas Employment 
Commission (TEC) as the state agency to administer activities funded by the 
Wagner-Peyser Act. The state herein presents the method and schedule proposed 
for distributing substate resources under sec.501, subsection 7(a).
Staff positions will be distributed to TEC administrative regions throughout the 
state according to the following formula: each region will be held at an 80% 
hold harmless level; and the distribution will be based upon each region's 
accomplishment of individual and transaction placements and new and renewal 
applications.
These funds will be available to support staff and nonpersonal services (rent, 
utilities, equipment, supplies, etc.) effective July 1, 1992. Actual 
disbursement of these funds will be made from the TEC State Office in accordance 
with the federally approved cost accounting system and state procurement 
guidelines.
The respective TEC regional directors have the discretion for hiring and 
assignment of specific individuals and for purchases and contracts for 
nonpersonal services within federal and state guidelines; however, these funds 
may not be applied to functions other than labor exchange services.
Comments in regard to the substate distribution of the Wagner-Peyser funds 
should be submitted in writing to Charlean Jackson, Deputy Administrator for 
Employment and Personnel, TEC Building, 15th Street and Congress Avenue, Austin, 
Texas 78778.
Information in regard to the specific allocation of any service delivery area as 
a result of this distribution formula is available from the same source. Any 
requests for modification of the distribution formula must be received by June 
12, 1992 to be considered for the Program Year 1992 funding cycle. Such requests 
will be addressed, and a response outlining action taken will be issued by the 
chairman of TEC.
