2273), and section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974, (26 U.S.C. 2813), as

certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers at the 
Connectors and Backplane Assemblies Facility produce connectors and 
backplane assemblies; they are not separately identifiable by articles 
produced. Workers of the Printed Circuit Board Facility produce printed 
circuit boards.
    The subject firm originally named Teradyne, Inc., Teradyne 
Connection Systems (TCS), was renamed Teradyne, Inc., Amphenol TCS, a 
Division of Amphenol Corporation on December 1, 2005, due to a change 
in ownership. The State agency reports that workers' wages at the 
subject firm are being reported under the Unemployment Insurance (UI) 
tax account for Teradyne, Inc., currently known as Amphenol TCS, a 
Division of Amphenol Corporation, Nashua, New Hampshire.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending this certification to 
reflect a change in ownership.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Teradyne, Inc., currently known as Amphenol TCS, a Division 
of Amphenol Corporation, Connectors and Backplane Assemblies Facility 
and the Printed Circuit Board Facility who were adversely affected by a 
shift in production to Mexico, Malaysia and China.

hereby issued as follows:
