In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended
(``Act''), 19 U.S.C. 2273, the Department of Labor issued a
Certification of Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance
on November 20, 2015, applicable to workers of Verso Corporation,
Wickliffe Mill, including on-site leased workers from Select Staffing,
U.S. Security Associates and Abbco Janitorial, Wickliffe, Kentucky. The
Department's notice of determination was published in the Federal
Register on January 11, 2016 (81 FR 1227).
At the request of a state workforce office and a company official,
the Department reviewed the certification for workers of the subject
firm. The workers are engaged in activities related to the production
of coated and uncoated freesheet paper for catalogs, magazines, retail
inserts, direct mail and general commercial printing applications and
market pulp.
New information shows that worker separations have occurred at
Verso Corporation, Wickliffe Mill, including on-site leased workers
from Select Staffing, U.S. Security Associates and Abbco Janitorial,
Wickliffe, Kentucky (TA-W-90,281), Verso Corporation, Beaver Dam
Woodyard, Beaver Dam, Kentucky (TA-W-90,281A), Verso Corporation,
Eddyville Woodyard, Eddyville, Kentucky (TA-W-90,281B), Verso
Corporation, Waldschmidt Woodyard, Wickliffe, Kentucky (TA-W-90,281C),

(TA-W-90,281D), Verso Corporation, Big Sandy Woodyard, Camden,
Tennessee (TA-W-90,281E), Verso Corporation, Dover Woodyard, Dover,
Tennessee (TA-W-90,281F). The employees support and work in conjunction
with Verso Corporation, Wickliffe Mill, including on-site leased
workers from Select Staffing, U.S. Security Associates and Abbco
Janitorial, Wickliffe, Kentucky (TA-W-90,281) in woodyards which served
to procure wood from the source, contracted with timber harvesters, and
served as the collection site of the wood for short term storage until
it was transported to the mill.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include all
workers of the subject firm who were adversely affected by customer
imports of coated and uncoated freesheet paper for catalogs, magazines,
retail inserts, direct mail and general commercial printing
applications and market pulp.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending this
certification to include employees of Verso Corporation, Wickliffe
Mill, including on-site leased workers from Select Staffing, U.S.
Security Associates and Abbco Janitorial, Wickliffe, Kentucky (TA-W-
90,281), Verso Corporation, Beaver Dam Woodyard, Beaver Dam, Kentucky
