United States Leather, Lackawanna Leather, Including Leased 
Workers of Snelling Personnel Services Employed at United States 
Leather, Lackawanna Leather, El Paso, TX; Amended Certification 
Regarding Eligibility To Apply for NAFTA-Transitional Adjustment 
Assistance

    In accordance with Section 250(A), Subchapter D, Chapter 2, Title 
II, of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 USC 2273), the Department of Labor 
issued a Certification for NAFTA Transitional Adjustment Assistance on 
October 6, 2000, applicable to workers of United States Leather, 
Lackawanna Leather, El Paso, Texas. The notice was published in the 
Federal Register on November 1, 2000 (65 FR 65331).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. New information shows 
that some workers of United States Leather, Lackawanna Leather were 
leased from Snelling Personnel Services to produce leather hides used 
for the production of car seats at the El Paso, Texas facility. 
Information also shows that workers separated from employment at the 
subject firm had their wages reported under a separate unemployment 
insurance (UI) tax account for Snelling Personnel Services.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending the 
certification to include workers of Snelling Personnel Services leased 
to United States Leather, Lackawanna Leather, El Paso, Texas.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of United States Leather, Lackawanna Leather adversely affected 
by imports from Mexico.
    The amended notice applicable to NAFTA-04106 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of United States Leather, Lackawanna Leather, El 
Paso, Texas and leased workers of Snelling Personnel Services, El 
Paso, Texas engaged in employment related to the production of 
leather hides used for the production of car seats for United States 
Leather, Lackawanna Leather, El Paso, Texas who became totally or 
partially separated from employment on or after August 14, 1999 
through October 6, 2002 are eligible to apply for NAFTA-TAA under 
Section 250 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, DC this 19th day of December, 2000.

Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
