DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Employment and Training Administration
[NAFTA-02821]
Tony Lama Boot Co., Justin Boot Co., 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
March 11, 1999, applicable to all workers of Tony Lama Boot Company
located in El Paso, Texas. The notice was published in the Federal
Register on April 27, 1999 (64 FR 22649).
At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers are engaged
in the production of boots. New information shows that Justin Boot
Company is one of four sister firms of Tony Lama Boot Company located
in El Paso, Texas. The company also reports that some workers separated
from employment at Tony Lama Boot Company had their wages reported
under a separate unemployment insurance (UI) tax account for Justin
Boot Company, also located in El Paso, Texas. Based on these findings,
the Department is amending the certification to reflect this matter.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include all
workers of Tony Lama Boot Company who were adversely affected by
imports from Mexico.
The amended notice applicable to NAFTA-02821 is hereby issued as
follows:
All workers of Tony Lama Boot Company, Justin Boot Company, El
Paso, Texas, who
[[Page 32279]]
became totally or partially separated from employment on or after
December 28, 1997 through March 11, 2001 are eligible to apply for
NAFTA-TA under section 250 of the Trade Act of 1974.
Signed at Washington, DC, this 27th day of May, 1999.
Grant D. Beale,
Acting Director, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
