    In accordance with section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 USC 
2273) the Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to 
Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on February 19, 2002, applicable

Akron, Ohio, including various facilities located in Ohio, Illinois, 
New York, Pennsylvania and Indiana. The notice was published in the 
Federal Register on February 28, 2002 (67 FR 93225).
    At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The company reports that 
worker separations occurred at the Corporate Office, Akron, Ohio 
location of the subject firm. The Corporate Office provides 
administrative support functions including finance, sales, marketing 
customer service and Human Resource services to the subject firms' many 
production facilities. Findings also show that worker separations 
occurred at the Canton Special Metals Plant, Canton, Ohio location of 
the subject firm. The workers are engaged in the production of hot 
rolled steel bars, cold finished steel bars and specialty steel. The 
intent of the Department's certification is to include all workers of 
Republic Technologies International adversely affected by increased 
imports.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to cover 
workers of Republic Technologies International, Corporate Office, 
Akron, Ohio and the Canton Special Metals Plant, Canton, Ohio.
