Form ETA 8705B ETA 8705B Equitable Distribution Report

SCSEP State
Equitable Distribution (ED) Report

OMB Control Number: 1205-0400
Expiration Date: 11/30/2021

The Equitable Distribution (ED) State Report, Form 8705A, is based on the number of modified positions by county
(authorized positions adjusted for the applicable minimum wage in the county) as determined by the Census data, as well as
the number of enrollments by county as determined by the data in the ETA data collection system at the time of the report.
The State Report should include all grantees that operate in that State.
The Senior Community Service Employment Program (SCSEP) ED tables provide various calculations of the variance
between the modified positions and the number of current enrollments by county. Please use the modified positions by State
tables to fill out the values in Section I below and use those calculations to answer the two questions about the variance:
What is its significance; and what, if any, actions the grantees will take to come into better compliance with the equitable
distribution requirements? Submit the completed report to your FPO with a copy to
grants.SCSEPdocs@dol.gov.

collaboration among the state grantee and the national grantees within the state when addressing the
variances by county statewide for all grantees. Describe challenges that affect your collective ability to
meet and/or maintain ED in each county throughout the State. Identify if there is a history of
noncompliance with ED in any area. Describe any administrative issues, grantee/sub-grantee structure,
or external factors unrelated to ED patterns (e.g., a change of sub-grantee, natural disaster, etc.)
contributing to the problem.

between the state grantee and the national grantees operating in the State. Provide concrete steps
(consolidating positions by county, position swaps, attrition) to fix ED, particularly in difficult to serve
areas such as rural counties, counties where there has been a significant historical inequity, and/or areas
where there have been recent large increases in numbers of eligible persons.
