Levi Strauss and Company, Goodyear Cutting Facility and El Paso 
Field Headquarters 1440 Goodyear El Paso, Texas, Fayetteville, 
Arkansas; Harrison, Arkansas; Dallas CF Regional Office Dallas, 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 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 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 and the company, the Department 
reviewed the certification for workers of the subject firm. New 
information received by the company shows that worker separations will 
occur at the Levi Strauss and Company production facilitates located in 
Fayetteville and Harrison, Arkansas. The company also reports layoffs 
at the Dallas CF Regional Office in Dallas, Texas. The workers at these 
three locations 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 firm' workers in Fayetteville and Harrison, Arkansas, and 
Dallas, Texas.
    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-33,513 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), Fayetteville, Arkansas (TA-W-33,513Y), Harrison, Arkansas 
(TA-W-33,513Z), and Dallas, Texas (TA-W-33,513AA) 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 9th day of December 1997.
Grant D. Beale,
Acting Director, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
