Levi Strauss and Company; Goodyear Cutting Facility and El Paso 
Field Headquarters 1440 Goodyear, El Paso, Texas; San Benito, Texas, 
Amended Certification Regarding Eligibility To Apply for Worker 
Adjustment Assistance

    In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 USC 
2273) the Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to 
Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on August 7, 1997, applicable to 
workers of Levi Strauss and Company, located in El Paso, Texas. The 
notice was published in the Federal Register on September 17, 1997 (62 
FR 48888). The certification was subsequently amended to include the 
subject firm workers at the El Paso Field Headquarters in El Paso, 
Texas. The amendment was issued on September 14, 1997 and published in 
the Federal Register on September 30, 1997 (62 FR 51155).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. New information received 
by the State shows that worker separations have occurred at the San 
Benito, Texas plant of Levi Strauss and Company. The workers in San 
Benito are engaged in employment related to the production of men's, 
women's and youth's denim jeans and jackets. Based on this new 
information, the Department is amending the certification to cover the 
subject firms' workers at the San Benito, Texas plant.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Levi Strauss and Company who were adversely affected by 
increased imports of men's, women's and youth's denim jeans and 
jackets.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-22,513 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    ``All workers of Levi Strauss and Company, Goodyear Cutting 
Facility and El Paso Field Headquarters, El Paso, Texas (TA-W-
33,513) and San Benito, Texas (TA-W-33,513X) who were engaged in 
employment related to the production of men's, women's and youth's 
denim jeans and jackets who became totally or partially separated 
from employment on or after May 13, 1996 are eligible to apply for 
adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.''

    Signed at Washington D.C. this 10th day of November 1997.
Grant D. Beale,
Acting Director, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
