DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration
[TA-W-33,300]


McDonnell Douglas Corporation Douglas Aircraft Company (DAC) a/k/
a Boeing Company, Long Beach, CA; 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 Notice of Certification 
Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on 
August 14, 1997, applicable to workers of McDonnell Douglas 
Corporation, Douglas Aircraft Company (DAC) located in Long Beach, 
California. The notice will soon be published in the Federal Register.
    At the request of the United Automobile, Aerospace and Agriculture 
Implement Workers of America, Local 148, and the State agency, the 
Department reviewed the certification for workers of the subject firm 
producing commercial jet transport aircraft. The findings show that the 
Boeing Company purchased the subject firm plant on August 1, 1997. 
Accordingly, some of the workers separated from employment at the Long 
Beach facility have had their wages reported under the unemployment 
insurance (UI) tax account for the Boeing Company. Accordingly, the 
Department is amending the certification to properly reflect this 
matter.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of the Long Beach, California plant adversely affected by 
increased imports.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-33,300 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of McDonnell Douglas Corporation, Douglas Aircraft 
Company (DAC), also known as the Boeing Company (as of August 1, 
1997), Long Beach, California, who became totally or partially from 
employment on or after March 23, 1997 through August 14, 1999, 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 April 1998.
Grant D. Beale,
Acting Director, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
