DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-41,918]


Unilever Best Foods North America, Conopco, Santa Cruz, CA; 
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 October 1, 2002, applicable 
to workers of Unilever Best Foods North America, Santa Cruz, 
California. The notice was published in the Federal Register on October 
22, 2002 (67 FR 64923).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers were engaged 
in the production of packaged tea, including black tea and herbal tea.
    New information shows that some workers separated from employment 
at the subject firm had their wages reported under a separate 
unemployment insurance (UI) tax account for Conopco.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to 
properly reflect this matter.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Unilever Best Foods North America, Santa Cruz, California 
who were adversely affected by increased imports.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-41,918 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Unilever Best Foods North America, Conopco, Santa 
Cruz, California, who became totally or partially separated from 
employment on or after July 24, 2001, through October 1, 2004, are 
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under section 223 of the 
Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, DC this 7th day of April 2003.
Richard Church,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
