DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-64,489]


Wyeth Pharmaceuticals, a Subsidiary of Wyeth, Currently Known as 
Pfizer, Rouses Point, NY; 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), as amended, the Department of Labor issued a Certification of 
Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and Alternative 
Trade Adjustment Assistance on December 11, 2008, applicable to workers 
of Wyeth Pharmaceuticals, a subsidiary of Wyeth, Rouses Point, New 
York. The notice was published in the Federal Register December 30, 
2008 (73 FR 79914).
    At the request of the state agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers are engaged 
in activities related to the production of various pharmaceutical 
products such as Rapaume Liquid, Effexor, Premarin IV, Premarin, 
Prempro, Premarin Vaginal Cream, CEDL, and CEC.
    New information shows that some workers separated from employment 
at the subject firm had their wages reported under a separate 
unemployment insurance (UI) tax account for Pfizer.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to 
properly reflect this matter.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Wyeth Pharmaceuticals, a subsidiary of Wyeth, currently 
known as Pfizer, who were adversely affected by a shift in plant 
production of various pharmaceutical products to Canada.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-64,489 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Wyeth Pharmaceuticals, a subsidiary of Wyeth, 
currently known as Pfizer, Rouses Point, New York, who become 
totally or partially separated from employment on or after November 
19, 2007, through December 11, 2010, 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 in Washington, DC, this 24th day of November 2009.
 Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
