Magnetek, Main St. Plant and the Former Employees of the Main St. 
Plant Temporarily Employed at the Universal Drive Plant, Owosso, MI; 
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 of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility To 
Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on November 30, 1994, applicable 
to all workers of Magnetek, Main St. Plant, located in Owosso, 
Michigan. The notice was published in the Federal Register on December 
16, 1994 (59 FR 65077).
    At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. Magnetek has two 
locations in Owosso, Main St. Plant and Universal Drive. The workers of 
the Universal Drive location have not been certified as eligible to 
apply for TAA program benefits. Information provided by the company 
shows that when the Main Street plant closed, some of the Main St. 
plant workers were asked to temporarily continue their employment at 
the Universal Drive location until the phase out of the main St. 
operations was completed. Upon completion of the Main St. phase out, 
the former Main St. workers were separated from employment at the 
Universal Drive location. Based on these new findings, the Department 
is amending the certification to cover the workers at Magnetek's Main 
St. plant that were temporarily employed at the Universal Drive plant.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Magnetek who were adversely affected by increased imports.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-30,322 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Magnetek, Main St. Plant, and the former workers 
of the Main St. Plant that were temporarily employed at the 
Universal Drive Plant who became totally or partially separated from 
employment on or after August 26, 1993, are eligible to apply for 
adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, D.C. this 9th day of February 1996.
Russell T. Kile,
Acting Program Manager, Policy and Reemployment Services, Office of 
Trade Adjustment Assistance.
