DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration
[TA-W-34,479 and TA-W-34,479A]


Nabors Drilling USA, Incorporated Williston, North Dakota and 
Operating at Various Locations in Montana; 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 Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to 
Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on June 26, 1998 applicable to 
workers of Nabors Drilling USA, Incorporated, Williston, North Dakota 
(TA-W-34,479). The notice was published in the Federal Register on July 
31, 1998 (63 FR 40935).
    At the request of the petitioners, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers provide 
contract drilling services in the crude oil and natural gas industry. 
New information provided by the company shows that some workers 
separated from employment at Nabors Drilling USA, Incorporated, 
Williston, North Dakota had their wages reported under a separate 
unemployment insurance (UI) tax account for Nabors Drilling USA 
operating at various locations in the State of Montana. Based on these 
findings, the Department is amending the certification to include 
workers of Nabors Drilling USA, Incorporated operating at various 
locations in the State of Montana.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Nabors Drilling USA, Incorporated who were adversely 
affected by increased imports.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-34,479 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Nabors Dirlling USA, Incorporated, Williston, 
North Dakota (TA-W-34, 479) and operating at various locations in 
Montana (TA-W-34,479A), who became totally or partially separated 
from employment on or after April 14, 1997 through June 26, 2000 are 
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the 
Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, DC. this 18th day of November, 1998.
Grant D. Beale,
Acting Director, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
