Berg Electronics Group, Incorporated, RF Division, A/K/A 
Specialty Connector, Franklin, Indiana; Amended Certification Regarding 
Eligibility to Apply for NAFTA-Transitional Adjustment Assistance

    In accordance with Section 250(a), Subchapter D, Chapter 2, Title 
II, of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended (19 U.S.C. 2273), the 
Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to Apply for 
NAFTA-Transitional Adjustment Assistance on July 27, 1998, applicable 
to workers of Berg Electronics Group, RF Division located in Franklin, 
Indiana. The notice was published in the Federal Register on August 7, 
1998 (63 FR 42435).
    At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers produce 
radio frequency (RF) connectors. The company has provided information 
showing that workers of Berg Electronics have had their wages reported 
under the unemployment insurance (UI) tax account for the former owner, 
Specialty Connector. Accordingly, the Department is amending the 
certification to reflect this matter.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of the subject firm adversely affected by the shift in 
production to Mexico.
