Levi Strauss and Company; Amended Certification Regarding 
Eligibility To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance

    In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 
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, 1998 (62 
FR 48888). The certification was subsequently amended to include 
subject firm workers at various facilities and offices and contract 
workers at facilities where the subject firm's workers had been 
previously certified.
    At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. New information received 
by the company shows that worker separations occurred at two companies; 
El Paso Physical Therapy Services and J and L Enterprises, performing 
contract services for Levi Strauss's previously certified production 
facilities; the Pellicano Finishing Facility, El Paso, Texas and the 
Amarillo Finishing Plant, Amarillo, Texas. Based on this new 
information, the Department is amending the certification to cover 
workers at El Paso Physical Therapy Services, El Paso, Texas and J and 
L Enterprises, Amarillo, Texas.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of
