Mead Paper Corporation, Rumford, Maine et al; Amended 
Certification Regarding Eligibility To Apply for Worker Adjustment 
Assistance

    In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 USC 
2273) the Department Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to 
Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on February 12, 1999, applicable 
to workers of Mead Paper Corporation, Rumford, Maine. The notice was 
published in the Federal Register on April 27, 1999 (64 22648).
    At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. New information shows 
that worker separations will occur in September and December, 1999 at 
various support function facilities due to the company closing its' 
Specialty business operations. These facilities provide sales and 
marketing services for the production of predominantly groundwood 
coated paper at the Rumford, Maine location of Mead Paper Corporation.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Mead Paper Corporation adversely affected by increased 
imports.
