Action West, Don Shapiro Industries, 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 U.S.C. 2273), the Department of Labor 
issued a Certification for NAFTA Transitional Adjustment Assistance on 
May 12, 1998, applicable to all workers of Action West, Division of Don 
Shapiro Industries, El Paso, Texas. The notice was published in the 
Federal Register on May 29, 1998 (63 FR 29431).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers produce 
children's, men's and women's jeans and shorts. New findings show that 
there was a previous certification covering the same worker group, 
NAFTA-0562, issued on August 31, 1995. That certification expired 
August 31, 1997. To avoid an overlap in worker group coverage, the 
certification is being amended to change the impact date from March 27, 
1997 to September 1, 1997, for Action West, Division of Don Shapiro 
Industries, El Paso, Texas.
    The amended notice applicable to NAFTA-02300 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Action West, Division of Don Shapiro Industries, 
El Paso, Texas who became totally or partially separated from 
employment on or after September 1, 1997 through May 12, 2000 are 
eligible to apply for NAFTA-TAA under section 250 of the Trade Act 
of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 26th day of January 1999.
Grant D. Beale,
Acting Director, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
