Eagle Garment Finishing Inc., a/k/a Pastar, Inc., El Paso, Texas; 
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, as amended (19 USC 2273), the Department 
of Labor issued a Certification for NAFTA Transitional Adjustment 
Assistance on May 14, 1996, applicable to workers of Eagle Garment 
Finishing, Inc., El Paso, Texas. The notice was published in the 
Federal Register on May 24, 1996 (61 FR 26220).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers are engaged 
in employment related to the production of denim apparel. New 
information submitted to the Department shows that some of the workers 
had their wages reported to a separate unemployment insurance (UI) tax 
account, Pastar, Inc., which is the parent company of Eagle Garment 
Finishing, Inc.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Eagle Garment Finishing, Inc. who were adversely affected by 
increased imports from Mexico or Canada. Accordingly, the Department is 
amending the certification to include workers of Pastar, Inc.
    The amended notice applicable to NAFTA-00937 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Eagle Garment Finishing, Inc., a/k/a Pastar, 
Inc., El Paso, Texas, who became totally or partially separated from 
employment on or after March 18, 1995, are eligible to apply for 
NAFTA-TAA under Section 250 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, D.C. this 6th day of June 1996.
