DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[NAFTA--03325 and 03325AA]


Levi Strauss & Company Wichita Falls Plant, Wichita Falls, TX and 
Walnut Creek Road Office, Walnut Creek, CA; 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, as amended (19 USC 2273), the Department 
of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to Apply for NAFTA 
Transitional Adjustment Assistance on August 11, 1999, applicable to 
workers of Levi Strauss & Company, Wichita Falls Plant, Wichita Falls, 
Texas. The notice was published in the Federal Register on September 
29, 1999 (64 FR 52543). The certification document was amended several 
times to include numerous facilities located at various locations.
    At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers are engaged 
in the production of denim and Docker apparel. The company reports that 
worker separations occurred at the Walnut Creek Road Office of Levi 
Strauss located in Walnut Creek, California. The Walnut Creek Road 
Office is a satellite office of the subject firms' headquarters in San 
Francisco, California and directly supports Levi Strauss's many 
production facilities. The intent of the Department's certification is 
to include all workers of Levi Strauss and Company who were adversely 
affected by increased imports of denim and Docker apparel from Mexico.
    The amended notice applicable to NAFTA--03325 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Levi Strauss & Company, Wichita Falls Plant, 
Wichita Falls, Texas (NAFTA-03325) and Walnut Creek Road Office, 
Walnut Creek, California (NAFTA-03325AA) who became totally or 
partially separated from employment on or after August 8, 1999 
through August 11, 2001 are eligible to apply for NAFTA-TAA under 
Section 250 of the Trade Act of 1974.


    Signed in Washington, DC this 19th day of October, 2000.
