Pioneer Natural Resources USA, Incorporated Headquartered in 
Midland, Texas, et al.; 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 (19 USC 2273), the Department of Labor 
issued a Certification for NAFTA Transitional Adjustment Assistance on 
June 10, 1998, applicable to all workers of Pioneer Natural Resources 
USA, Incorporated, Headquartered in Midland, Texas. The notice was 
published in the Federal Register on July 13, 1998 (63 FR 37591).
    At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. New findings show that 
worker separations have occurred at Pioneer Natural Resources USA, 
Incorporated operating at various locations in New Mexico, Kansas and 
Louisiana. The workers are engaged in employment related to the 
production of crude oil.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Pioneer Natural Resources USA, Incorporated adversely affect 
by increased imports from Canada. Accordingly, the Department is 
amending the certification to cover workers of Pioneer Natural 
Resources USA, Incorporated operating at various locations in New 
Mexico, Kansas and Louisiana.
    The amended notice applicable to NAFTA--02262 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    ``All workers of Pioneer Natural Resources USA, Incorporated, 
headquartered in Midland, Texas (NAFTA-02262), operating at various 
locations in New Mexico (NAFTA-02262C), Kansas (NAFTA-02262D) and 
Louisiana (NAFTA-02262E) who became totally or partially separated 
from employment on or after March 10, 1997 through June 10, 2000 are 
eligible to apply for NAFTA-TAA under Section 250 of the Trade Act 
of 1974.''
