[TA-W-36,453]


Diamond Offshore Drilling, Inc., Houston, Texas and Operating at 
Various Offshore Drilling Sites Located in American Waters; 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 July 13, 1999, applicable to 
workers of Diamond Offshore Drilling, Inc., Houston, Texas. The notice 
was published in the Federal Register on August 11, 1999 (64 FR 43724).
    At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The company reports that 
worker separations have occurred at Diamond Offshore Drilling operating 
at various offshore drilling sites located in American waters. The 
workers are engaged in activities related to the exploration and 
drilling of crude oil and natural gas.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to 
include workers operating at various offshore drilling sites located in 
American waters.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Diamond Offshore Drilling, Inc. who were adversely affected 
by increased imports.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-36,453 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Diamond Offshore Drilling, Inc., Houston, Texas 
and operating at various offshore drilling sites located in American 
waters who became totally or partially separated from employment on 
or after June 6, 1998 through July 13, 2001 are eligible to apply 
for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 
1974.


    Signed at Washington, DC this 3rd day of November 2000.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
