DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-52,656]


Agere Systems, Inc., Allentown, PA; 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 7, 2003, applicable 
to workers of Agere Systems, Inc., Allentown, Pennsylvania. The notice 
will be published soon in the Federal Register.
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers produce 
integrated circuits and are not separately identifiable by product 
line.
    New findings show that there was a previous certification, TA-W-
39,449, issued on August 29, 2001, for workers of Agere Systems, 
Integrated Circuits Div., Allentown, Pennsylvania who were engaged in 
employment related to the production of integrated circuits. That 
certification expired August 29, 2003. To avoid an overlap in worker 
group coverage, this certification is being amended to change the 
impact date from August 15, 2002 to August 30, 2003, for workers of the 
subject firm.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-52,656 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    Workers of Agere Systems, Inc., Allentown, Pennsylvania, engaged 
in employment related to the production of integrated circuits, who 
became totally or partially separated from employment on or after 
August 30, 2003, through October 7, 2005, are eligible to apply for 
adjustment assistance under section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 3rd day of November, 2003.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
