PRESS RELEASE
Louisiana Awarded $10 Million Federal Grant for Oil Spill-Related Re-employment Services
Additional $3.4 million in grants awarded for other re-employment needs
BATON ROUGE (June 30, 2010) - The Louisiana Workforce Commission has been awarded three National Emergency Grants, including a $10 million grant to provide employment-related assistance and retraining for people who have lost their jobs because of the oil spill.
Funds from that grant will fund a variety of services, including basic skills and job skills assessments, training and job placement assistance. The grant also covers services for people who have lost work as a direct result of the spill, such as shrimpers, and as an indirect result of the spill, such as those affected by the federal moratorium on some offshore drilling.
"This grant will help prepare people for other careers as they deal with the effects of the oil spill disaster on their lives, families and communities," said Curt Eysink, executive director of the Louisiana Workforce Commission. "The full costs of providing these employment services for all the people who ultimately may need them could be significantly greater than $10 million, and we will pursue additional funding as the need arises."
The grant, awarded by the U.S. Department of Labor, will fund services in the following parishes: Acadia, Allen, Assumption, Beauregard, Calcasieu, Cameron, Evangeline, Iberia, Jefferson, Jefferson Davis, Lafayette, Lafourche, Orleans, Plaquemines, St. Bernard, St. Tammany, St. Landry, St. Martin, St. Mary, Terrebonne, and Vermilion.
Services funded by the grant will be provided in connection with existing workforce development programs operated by the LWC. Grant services will be provided through the LWC's network of Business and Career Solutions Centers and mobile units in the affected parishes. Training will be provided by public institutions, such as community and technical colleges, and by certified private training providers.
Hopes ride on giant oil skimmer in Gulf of Mexico
By TOM BREEN, Associated Press Writer Tom Breen, Associated Press Writer –
NEW ORLEANS – The latest hopes are riding on a massive new skimmer to clean oil from near the spewing well in the Gulf of Mexico, while a local Louisiana parish's plan to block the slick has been rejected by federal officials.
A 48-hour test of the Taiwanese vessel dubbed "A Whale" began Saturday and was to continue through Sunday.
TMT Shipping created what is billed as the world's largest oil skimmer by converting an oil tanker after the April 20 explosion sent millions of gallons of crude spilling into the Gulf.
The vessel was expected to cruise a 25-square-mile test site just north of the Macondo Deepwater well site, company officials said.
The U.S. Coast Guard and BP are waiting to see if the vessel, which is 10 stories high and as long as 3 1/2 football fields, can live up to its makers' promise of being able to process up to 21 million gallons of oil-fouled water a day.
