Regulations Implementing the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 |
Federal Register Notice: Interim Final Rule, 20 CFR Part 652 and Parts 660 through 671, Workforce Investment Act, 64 Fed. Reg. 18661 (Apr. 12, 1999) |
SUMMARY: These are interim final regulations for the implementation of the Workforce
Investment Act. The final regulations are not scheduled for publication until December 1999,
and the Act itself does not go into effect until July 1, 2000. Regulations need to be in place prior
to the effective date, however, to give States time to review and understand the program. ETA
endeavored to make the regulations "user-friendly" and notes that they are about half
the length of the JTPA regulations they will replace.
The procedures for hearings before ALJs will be similar to those for JTPA cases. 29 C.F.R. Part 18, Subpart A but not Subpart B, will apply. Subpoenas are authorized. The Grant Officer will have the "burden of production" to support his or her decision, and will supply an administrative file to support the decision; thereafter, the party seeking to overturn the decision will have the "burden of persuasion." Appeals will be to the ARB, which will have the discretion whether or not to accept the matter for review. Parties may "waive" their rights to an ALJhearing by choosing to participate in alternative dispute resolution but the "waiver" is revoked if the case is not settled within 60 days. The regulations also make reference to the non-discrimination provision, Section 188 of the WIA. ETA indicates that it will publish separate regulations, to be located at 29 CFR Part 37, and will be similar to the present JTPA non-discrimination provisions at 29 CFR Part 34. |
