[NAFTA-03161, et al.]


Levi Strauss and Company, et al.; Amended Certification Regarding 
Eligibility To Apply for NAFTA-Transitional Adjustment Assistance

    In accordance with section 250(A), Subchapter D, Chapter 2, Title 
II, of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 USC 2273), the Department of Labor 
issued a Certification for NAFTA Transitional Adjustment Assistance on 
June 24, 1999, applicable to workers of Levi Strauss and Company, 
Morrilton Sewing Facility, located in Morrilton, Arkansas. The notice 
was published in the Federal Register on July 20, 1999 (FR 38922).
    At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers were engaged 
in the production of men's slacks and men's and women's jeans. New 
information received by the company shows that worker separations have 
occurred at the following facilities of Levis Strauss & Company: Little 
Rock Rescreen and Little Rock Customer Service, Little Rock, Arkansas, 
KB's Environmental Service, Menifee, Arkansas and Zimmerman Food 
Service, Morrilton, Arkansas. The Little Rock Rescreen and Little Rock 
Customer Service provided inspection, various customer services and 
distribution for Levi Strauss & Company. KB's Environmental Service and 
Zimmerman Food Service provided janitorial and cafeteria services for 
the subject firm's Morrilton Sewing Facility located in Morrilton, 
Arkansas which closed in early 1999.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of the subject firm, including full time contractors working at 
the above mentioned facilities, adversely affected by increased imports 
from Canada and Mexico.
    The amended notice applicable to NAFTA-03161 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of the following facilities of Levi Strauss & 
Company: Morrilton Sewing Facility, Morrilton, Arkansas (NAFTA-
03161), Little Rock Rescreen, Little Rock Arkansas (NAFTA-03161D), 
Little Rock Customer Service Center, Little Rock,
