DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[NAFTA-6334]


Nortel Networks Corp., Manufacturing Operations, Billerica, 
Massachusetts; 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 U.S.C. 2273), the 
Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to Apply for 
NAFTA Transitional Adjustment Assistance on November 5, 2002, 
applicable to workers of Nortel Networks Corporation, Billerica, 
Massachusetts. The notice was published in the Federal Register on 
November 22, 2002 (67 FR 70462).
    At the request of a company official, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers produce 
computer network systems components. The certification was issued for 
all workers of Nortel Networks Corporation, Billerica, Massachusetts. 
New information provided by the company shows that the petition was 
filed on behalf of workers in the Manufacturing Operations group. 
Workers in this group are separately identifiable from other worker 
groups at the Billerica location of the firm.
    It is the Department's intent to provide coverage to those workers 
adversely affected by the shift in production from the workers' firm to 
Canada. Accordingly, the certification is being amended to limit the 
certification to workers of Nortel Networks, Billerica, Massachusetts, 
Manufacturing Operations.
    The amended notice applicable to NAFTA-6334 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    Workers of Nortel Networks Corporation, Manufacturing 
Operations, Billerica, Massachusetts, who became totally or 
partially separated from employment on or after July 1, 2001, 
through November 5, 2004, are eligible to apply for NAFTA-TAA under 
section 250 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed in Washington, DC this 26th day of November 2002.
Richard Church,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
