DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

[TA-W-57,582 and TA-W-57,582A]


EPEC, LLC, New Bedford, MA, Including an Employee of EPEC, LLC, 
New Bedford, MA Located in Lake in Benson, NC; Amended Notice of 
Certification Regarding Eligibility To Apply for Worker Adjustment 
Assistance and Negative Determination Regarding Eligibility To Apply 
for Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance

    In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 
2273), and Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974 (26 U.S.C. 2813), as 
amended, the Department of Labor issued a Certification Regarding 
Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and a Negative 
Determination Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Alternative Trade 
Adjustment Assistance on August 16, 2005, applicable to workers of 
EPEC, LLC, New Bedford, Massachusetts. The notice was published in the 
Federal Register on September 8, 2005 (70 FR 53390).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. New information shows 
that a worker separation occurred involving an employee of the New 
Bedford, Massachusetts facility of EPEC, LLC located in Benson, North 
Carolina. Mr. Jeffrey Martin Hinman provided engineering support 
services for the production of printed circuit boards at the New 
Bedford, Massachusetts location of the subject firm.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending this 
certification to include an employee of the New Bedford, Massachusetts 
facility of EPEC, LLC located in Benson, North Carolina.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of EPEC, LLC, New Bedford, Massachusetts, who were adversely 
affected by company imports.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-57,582 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    ``All workers of EPEC, LLC, New Bedford, Massachusetts (TA-W-
57,582), including an employee of EPEC, LLC, New Bedford, 
Massachusetts located in Benson, North Carolina (TA-W-57,582A), who 
became totally or partially separated from employment on or after 
July 15, 2004, through August 16, 2007, are eligible to apply for 
adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974;'' 
and

    I further determine that all workers of EPEC, LLC, New Bedford, 
Massachusetts, including an employee of EPEC, LLC, New Bedford, 
Massachusetts located in Benson, North Carolina are denied eligibility 
to apply for alternative trade adjustment assistance under Section 246 
of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 31st day of October 2005.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
