    Investigations Regarding Certifications of Eligibility To Apply 
    for NAFTA Transitional Adjustment Assistance
    
        Petitions for transitional adjustment assistance under the North 
    American Free Trade Agreement-Transitional Adjustment Assistance 
    Implementation Act (P.L. 103-182), hereinafter called (NAFTA-TAA), have 
    been filed with State Governors under Section 250(b)(1) of Subchapter 
    D, Chapter 2, Title II, of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended, are 
    indentified in the Appendix to this Notice. Upon notice from a Governor 
    that a NAFTA-TAA petition has been received, the Program Manager of the 
    Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance (OTAA), Employment and Training 
    Administration (ETA), Department of Labor (DOL), announces the filing 
    of the petition and takes actions pursuant to paragraphs (c) and (e) of 
    Section 250 of the Trade Act.
        The purpose of the Governor's actions and the Labor Department's 
    investigations are to determine whether the workers separated from 
    employment after December 8, 1993 (date of enactment of P.L. 103-182) 
    are eligible to apply for NAFTA-TAA under Subchapter D of the Trade Act 
    because of increased imports from or the shift in production to Mexico 
    or Canada.
        The petitioners or any other persons showing a substantial interest 
    in the subject matter of the investigations may request a public 
    hearing with the Program Manager of OTAA at the U.S. Department of 
    Labor (DOL) in Washington, D.C. provided such request is filed in 
    writing with the Program Manager of OTAA not later than November 25, 
    1996.
        Also, interested persons are invited to submit written comments 
    regarding the subject matter of the petitions to the Program Manager of 
    OTAA at the address shown below not later than November 25, 1996.
        Petitions filed with the Governors are available for inspection at 
    the Office of the Program Manager, OTAA, ETA, DOL, Room C-4318, 200 
    Constitution Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20210.
    
        Signed at Washington, D.C. this 5th day of November, 1996.
