[Federal Register Volume 64, Number 244 (Tuesday, December 21, 1999)] [Notices] [Pages 71501-71502] From the Federal Register Online via the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] [FR Doc No: 99-33001] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF LABOR Employment and Training Administration [TA-W-34,695] Energizer Power Systems; Eveready Battery Company Now Known as Moltech Power Systems, Gainesville, FL; 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 U.S. Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on August 28, 1998 applicable to all workers of Energizer Power Systems located in Gainesville, Florida. The notice was published in the Federal Register on September 28, 1998 (63 FR 51605). The determination was amended on September 29, 1998 to include workers whose wages were reported under its parent firm, Eveready Battery Company. The amended notice was published in the Federal Register on October 9, 1998 (63 FR 54497). At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the certification for workers of the subject firm.

Company information shows that in November 1999, the Energizer Power Systems, Division of Eveready Battery Company, was purchased by Moltech Corporation. The Gainesville, Florida location of Energizer Power Systems became known as Moltech Power Systems and will continue to lay off workers. Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification determination to correctly identify the new ownership to read ``Energizer Power Systems, Division of Eveready Battery Company, now known as Moltech Power Systems,'' Gainesville, Florida. The intent of the Department's certification is to include all workers of Energizer Power Systems who were adversely affected by increased imports of rechargeable batteries.
