DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration
[NAFTA-03069; et al.]


Crescent/U.S. Mat, LLC, Art Advantage Division, Hot Springs 
Plant, Hot Springs, SD, et al.; Amended Certification Regarding 
Eligibility To Apply for NAFTA Transitional Adjustment Assistance

    In accordance with Section 250(a), Subchapter 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 April 12, 1999, applicable to workers of 
Crescent/U.S. Mat, LLC, Art Advantage Division, Hot Springs Plant, Hot 
Springs, South Dakota. The notice was published in the Federal Register 
on May 11, 1999 (64 FR 25374).
    At the request of the Sate agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers at the subject firm. New findings show that 
worker separations will occur at the Rapid City Administrative Officers 
and Warehouse, Rapid City, South Dakota location of Crescent/U.S. Mat, 
LLC, Art Advantage Division, when it closes in December 1999. The Rapid 
City, South Dakota location is the administrative offices and warehouse 
for the subject firms' production facility in Hot Springs, South Dakota 
which closed in August 1999. The workers were engaged in the production 
of pre-cut picture frame mats.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Crescent/U.S. Mat LLC adversely affected by imports from 
Mexico.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to cover 
workers at Crescent/U.S. Mat, LLC, Rapid City Administrative Offices 
and Warehouse, Rapid City, South Dakota.
    The amended notice applicable to NAFTA--03069 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Crescent/U.S. Mat, Hot Springs Plant, Hot 
Springs, South Dakota (NAFTA-03069) and Rapid City Administrative 
Offices and Warehouse, Rapid City, South Dakota (NAFTA-03069A) who 
became totally or partially separated from employment on or after 
March 30, 1998 through April 12, 2001 are eligible to apply for 
NAFTA-TAA under Section 250 of the Trade Act of 1974.
