Strauss Underwear Corporation, Jersey City, NJ; Amended 
Certification Regarding Eligibility To Apply for Worker Adjustment 
Assistance

    In accordance with section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 
2273) the Department of Labor issued a Notice of Certification 
Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on 
February 9, 1998, applicable to workers of Strauss Underwear 
Corporation located in Jersey City, New Jersey. The notice will soon be 
published in the Federal Register.
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers produced 
ladies' intimate apparel. Findings show that the Department incorrectly 
set the worker certification impact date at August 15, 1997. The impact 
date should be July 16, 1996, one year prior to the date of the 
petition. Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to 
reflect this matter.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-33,786 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Strauss Underwear Corporation, Jersey City, New 
Jersey engaged in employment related to the production of ladies' 
intimate apparel who became totally or partially from employment on 
or after July 16, 1996, are eligible to apply for adjustment 
assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, D.C. this 5th day of March 1998.
Grant D. Beale,
Acting Director, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
