    In accordance with Section 250(A), Subchapter D, Chapter 2, Title

Illinois location are engaged in the production of picture frames. 
Workers at the Waukegan, Illinois location provide distribution 
services for the production facilities of Newell Company, Acme Frame--
a/k/a Intercraft.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to cover 
workers at the subject firms' Mundelein and Waukegan, Illinois 
locations.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Newell Company, Acme Frame--a/k/a Intercraft adversely 
affected by imports from Mexico and Canada.

follows:

    All workers of Newell Company, Acme Frame Division, a/k/a 
Intercraft, Harrisburg, Arkansas (NAFTA-2089), Mundelein, Illinois 
(NAFTA-2089A) and Waukegan, Illinois (NAFTA-2089B) who became
