Headquartered in Houston, TX and Operating at Various Locations in the 
States of: Alaska, TA-W-35,663A; California, TA-W-35,663B; Colorado, 
TA-W-35,663C; Louisiana, TA-W-35,663D; Oklahoma, TA-W-35,663E; Texas,

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 Certification Regarding 
Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on March 25, 
1999, applicable to workers of Baker Hughes Inteq, headquartered in 
Houston, Texas and operating in the States of Alaska, California, 
Colorado, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Texas and Wyoming. The notice was 
published in the Federal Register on April 27, 1999 (64 FR 22648). The 
certification was amended on April 20, 1999, to include workers 
separated from employment at the subject firm's West Virginia 
locations. The notice of amendment was published in the Federal 
Register on May 6, 1999, (64 FR 22417).
    At the request of a State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers of Baker 
Hughes Inteq are engaged in employment related to exploration and 
drilling of crude oil wells for unaffiliated customers. New information 
provided by the State agency and a company official show that some of 
the workers at various Baker Hughes Inteq locations have had their 
wages reported to the Unemployment Insurance (UI) tax account for Baker 
Hughes Oilfield Operations.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to cover all 
workers of Baker Hughes Inteq who were adversely affected by increased 
imports of crude oil. Accordingly, the Department is amending the 
certification to include workers of the subject firm whose wages were 
reported as Baker Hughes Oilfield Operations.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-35,663 and TA-W-35,663A-H is 
hereby issued as follows:

    All workers of Baker Hughes Inteq also known as Baker Hughes 
Oilfield Operations, headquartered in Houston, Texas (TA-W-35,663), 
and operating at various locations in the States of Alaska (TA-W-
35,663A), California (TA-W-35,663B), Colorado (TA-W-35,663C), 
Louisiana (TA-W-35,663D), Oklahoma (TA-W-35,663F), Texas (TA-W-
35,663G) and Wyoming (TA-W-35,663H), who became totally or partially 
separated from employment on or after February 2, 1998 through March 
25, 2001, are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under 
section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 20th day of May 1999.
Grant D. Beale,
Acting Director, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
