DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-36,243 et al.]


Levi Strauss and Company, et. al.; 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 of Eligibility To 
Apply for Worker 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 (64 FR 38921).
    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 Levi 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 
of men's slacks and men's and women's jeans.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to 
properly reflect this matter.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-36,243 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of the following facilities of Levi Strauss & 
Company: Morrilton Sewing Facility, Morrilton, Arkansas (TA-W-
36,243), Little Rock Rescreen, Little Rock, Arkansas (TA-W-36,243D), 
Little Rock Customer Service Center, Little Rock, Arkansas (TA-W-
36,234E), KB's Environmental Service, Meniffee, Arkansas (TA-W-
36,243F) and Zimmerman Food Service, Morrilton, Arkansas (TA-W-
36,243G) who became totally or partially separated from employment 
on or after May 10, 1998 through June 24, 2001 are eligible to apply 
for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 
1974.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 1st day of February, 2000.
Grant D. Beale,
Program Manager, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
