    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

applicable to workers of Mead Corporation, Mead School and Office 
Products, Binder Department located in Saint Joseph, Missouri. The

    At the request of the petitioner, the Department reviewed the

Joseph, Missouri plant.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Mead Corporation, Mead School and Office Products affected 
by the shift [in production to Mexico. Accordingly, the Department is 
amending the worker certification to include the workers of the Tablet 
and Paper Filler Departments.
