Berg Electronics Group, Incorporated, RF Division, A/K/A
Specialty Connector, Franklin, Indiana; 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 U.S.C. 2273), the
Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to Apply for
NAFTA-Transitional Adjustment Assistance on July 27, 1998, applicable
to workers of Berg Electronics Group, RF Division located in Franklin,
Indiana. The notice was published in the Federal Register on August 7,
1998 (63 FR 42435).
At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers produce
radio frequency (RF) connectors. The company has provided information
showing that workers of Berg Electronics have had their wages reported
under the unemployment insurance (UI) tax account for the former owner,
Specialty Connector. Accordingly, the Department is amending the
certification to reflect this matter.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include all
workers of the subject firm adversely affected by the shift in
production to Mexico.
