DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[NAFTA-03888]


Lear Corp., United Technologies, Automotive, Inc.; Mold and Die 
Shop, El Paso, TX; 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 
July 11, 2000, applicable to workers of Lear Corp., Mold and Die Shop, 
El Paso, Texas. The notice was published in the Federal Register on 
July 24, 2000 (65 FR 45621).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers inspected, 
modified and assembled dies manufactured by outside vendors but used by 
the subject firm for crimping wire terminals. New information received 
from the company shows that on May 4, 1999, Lear Corp. purchased United 
Technologies Automotive, Inc. Information also shows that workers 
separated from employment at Lear Corp., Mold and Die Shop had their 
wages reported under a separate unemployment insurance (UI) tax account 
for United Technologies Automotive, Inc.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to 
properly reflect this matter.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Lear Corp., Mold and Die Shop, El Paso, Texas who were 
adversely affected by the shift of production to Mexico.
    The amended notice applicable to NAFTA-03888 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Lear Corp., United Technologies Automotive, Inc., 
Mold and Die Shop, El Paso, Texas who became totally or partially 
separated from employment on or after April 21, 1999 through July 
11, 2002 are eligible to apply for NAFTA-TAA under Section 250 of 
the Trade Act of 1974.


    Signed at Washington, D.C. this 13th day of September, 2000.
Edward A. Tomchick,
Director, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
