    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 February 13, 2003, applicable 
to workers of Blandin Paper Company, Grand Rapids, Minnesota. The 
notice was published in the Federal Register on March 10, 2003 (68 FR

    At the request of a company official, the Department reviewed the

    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-50,598 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Blandin Paper, Grand Rapids, Minnesota including 
temporary workers of Search Resources, Grand Rapids, Minnesota 
engaged in employment related to the production of coated magazine
