    The company reports that Sappi Fine Paper North America purchased 
Potlatch Corporation, Minnesota Pulp and Paper Division on May 13, 
2002. Information shows that employees separated from Potlatch after 
the May 13, 2002 selling date, were separated as employees of Sappi 
Fine Paper and, therefore, were not found eligible for trade adjustment 
assistance under the current certification covering Potlatch employees.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Potlatch Corporation, Minnesota, Pulp and Paper Division, 
who were adversely affected by increased imports.
    Accordingly, the Department is amended the certification 
determination to properly reflect this matter.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-39,255 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Potlatch Corporation, Sappi Fine Paper North 
America, Honeywell Corporation, Minnesota Pulp and Paper Division, 
Brainerd, Minnesota who become totally or partially separated from 
employment on or after May 1, 2000, through February 20, 2004, are 
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the 
Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 26th day of September, 2002.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
