The April 7, 2008 FEDERAL REGISTER contains the allotments.
The WIA allotments for states and the final allotments for the Wagner-Peyser Act are based on formulas defined in their respective statutes. The WIA allotments for the outlying areas are based on a formula determined by the Secretary.

The formula for PY 2008 is the same as used for PY 2000.

Comments on the formula used to allot funds to the outlying areas should be sent by May 7 to the Employment and Training Administration, Office of Financial and Administrative Management, 200 Constitution Avenue, NW., Room N-4702, Washington, DC 20210, Attention: Kenneth Leung, 202-693-3471 (phone), 202-693-2859 (fax), e-mail: leung.kenneth@dol.gov.
