DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration
[NAFTA-02719]


Quickie Manufacturing Corp. & Assembly Services, Inc., El Paso, 
TX; 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 December 16, 1998, 
applicable to all workers of Quickie Manufacturing Corporation, 
including workers of Assembly Services, Inc., located in El Paso, 
Texas. The notice will soon be published in the Federal Register.
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers produce wet 
mops, dust mops and plastic brooms. New findings show that there was 
previous certification, NAFTA-1285, issued on December 2, 1996, for 
workers of Assembly Services, Incorporated, El Paso, Texas who were 
engaged in employment related to the production of sweeping brooms. 
That certification expired December 2, 1998. To avoid an overlap in 
worker group coverage, the certification is being amended to change the 
impact date to December 3, 1998, for the workers of Assembly Services, 
Incorporated, engaged in employment related to the production of 
brooms.
    The amended notice applicable to NAFTA-02719 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Assembly Services, Incorporated, El Paso, Texas 
engaged in employment related to the production of sweeping brooms 
who became totally or partially separated from employment on or 
after December 3, 1998; and all workers of Quickie Manufacturing 
Corporation, including workers of Assembly Services, Incorporated, 
El Paso, Texas engaged in employment related to the production of 
wet mops, dust mops, and plastic brooms (except as stipulated above 
for workers of Assembly Services, Incorporated producing sweeping 
brooms), who became totally or partially separated from employment 
on or after October 21, 1997 through December 16, 2000, are eligible 
to apply for NAFTA-TAA under section 250 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, DC., this 16th day of December 1998.
Grant D. Beale,
Acting Director, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
