[TA-W-34,761]


The Oldham Saw Company, Burt, NY; 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 Notice of Certification 
Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on 
September 3, 1998, applicable to workers of Oldham Saw Company located 
in Burt, New York. The notice was published in the Federal Register on 
September 28, 1998 (63 FR 51605).
    At the request of petitioners, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers produced 
circular saw blades. New information obtained from the company reveal 
that after the closure of the Burt plant, some of the workers continued 
temporary employment conducting worker training on the equipment for a 
new Oldham Saw Company plan in West Jefferson, North Carolina. At the 
completion of the worker training in North Carolina, the Burt, New York 
workers were terminated. These workers wages were being reported to the 
Unemployment Insurance tax account for The Oldham Saw Company in West 
Jefferson, North Carolina. The intent of the Department's certification 
is to include all workers of The Oldham Saw Company, Burt, New York, 
who were affected by increased imports. Accordingly, the Department is 
amending the worker certification to reflect this matter.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-34,761 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of The Oldham Saw Company, Burt, New York, including 
workers whose wages were paid by The Oldham Saw Company, West 
Jefferson, North Carolina, who became totally or partially separated 
from employment on or after July 8, 1997 through September 3, 2000, 
are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of 
the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed in Washington, DC, this 16th day of February, 1999.
Grant D. Beale,
Acting Director, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
