[TA-W-58,145]


General Cable, A/K/A Nextgen Fiber Optics, A Subsidiary Of 
General Cable Technologies Corporation, Datacom Business Team Dayville, 
Connecticut; Amended Certification Regarding Eligibility To Apply for 
Worker Adjustment Assistance and 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 of Eligibility 
to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and Alternative Trade 
Adjustment Assistance on February 23, 2005, applicable to workers of 
General Cable, a subsidiary of General Cable Technologies Corp., 
Datacom Business Team, Dayville, Connecticut. The notice was published 
in the Federal Register on December 15, 2005 (70 FR 74369).
    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 fiber communication cable.
    New information shows that General Cable purchased NextGen Fiber 
Optics in July 2005 and that some workers separated from employment at 
the subject firm had their wages reported under a separate unemployment 
insurance (UI) tax account for NextGen Fiber Optics.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to 
properly reflect this matter.

[[Page 9162]]

    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of General Cable, a subsidiary of General Cable Technologies 
Corporation, Datacom Business Team, Dayville, Connecticut, who were 
adversely affected by increased customer imports.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-58,145 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of General Cable, a/k/a NextGen Fiber Optics, a 
subsidiary of General Cable Technologies Corporation, Data Com 
Business Team, Dayville, Connecticut, who became totally or 
partially separated from employment on or after October 17, 2004, 
through November 21, 2007, are eligible to apply for adjustment 
assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, and are also 
eligible to apply for alternative trade adjustment assistance under 
Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 6th day of February 2006.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
