Tony Lama Boot Co. Justin Boot Company; El Paso, TX; 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 U.S. Department of Labor issued a Certification of 
Eligibility to Apply for Worker 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 6, 
1999 (64 FR 16753).
    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 Passo, 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 
increased imports.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-35,472 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Tony Lama Boot Company, Justin Boot Company, El 
Paso, Texas who became totally or partially separated from 
employment on or after December 21, 1997 through March 11, 2001 are 
eligibile to apply for adjustment assistance under section 223 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.
