DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
[NAFTA-00946; NAFTA-00946A]


Montana Power Company, Colstrip Project Division, Colstrip, MT 
and Western Energy Company, Colstrip, MT; Amended Certification 
Regarding Eligibility To Apply for NAFTA Transitional Adjustment 
Assistance

    In accordance with Section 250(a), Subchapter D, Chapter 2, Title 
II, of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended (19 USC 2273), the Department 
of Labor issued a Certification for NAFTA Transitional Adjustment 
Assistance on May 10, 1996, applicable to all workers of Montana Power 
Company, Colstrip Project Division located in Colstrip, Montana. The 
certification was published in the Federal Register on May 24, 1996 (61 
FR 26220).
    At the request of petitioners, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The new findings show 
that worker separations have occurred at Western Energy Company in 
Colstrip, Montana. Western Energy is a wholly-owned subsidiary of 
Montana Power Company. The workers are engaged in employment related to 
the production of electricity.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of the subject firm who were adversely affected by increased 
imports. Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to 
include workers at Western Energy Company.
    The amended notice applicable to NAFTA-00946 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Montana Power Company, Colstrip Project Division 
(NAFTA-00946), and Western Energy Company (NAFTA-00946A), both 
located in Colstrip, Montana, who became totally or partially 
separated from employment on or after April 1, 1995, are eligible to 
apply for NAFTA-TAA under Section 250 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed in Washington, D.C., this 27th day of June 1996.
Linda G. Poole,
Acting Program Manager, Policy and Reemployment Services, Office of 
Trade Adjustment Assistance.
