[TA-W-55,262]


JDS Uniphase Corporation, Including On-Site Leased Workers of 
Manpower, Ciber and Spherion, Rochester, MN; 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 August 16, 2004, applicable to workers of JDS 
Uniphase Corporation, including leased workers of Manpower and Ciber, 
Rochester, Minnesota. The notice was published in the Federal Register 
on September 8, 2004 (69 FR 54321).
    At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers are engaged 
in the production of optical transceivers.
    New information shows that leased workers of Spherion were employed 
on-site at the Rochester, Minnesota location of JDS Uniphase 
Corporation.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending this 
certification to include leased workers of Spherion working on-site at 
JDS Uniphase Corporation, Rochester, Minnesota.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers employed at JDS Uniphase Corporation, Rochester, Minnesota who 
were adversely affected by a shift in production to Mexico and 
Thailand.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-55,262 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of JDS Uniphase Corporation, Rochester, Minnesota, 
including on-site leased workers of Manpower, Ciber and Spherion, 
who became totally or partially separated from employment on or 
after June 25, 2003, through August 16, 2006, 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 21st day of March 2006.
Richard Church,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
