Eagle Garment Finishing Inc., a/k/a Pastar, Inc., El Paso, Texas;
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 USC 2273), the Department
of Labor issued a Certification for NAFTA Transitional Adjustment
Assistance on May 14, 1996, applicable to workers of Eagle Garment
Finishing, Inc., El Paso, Texas. The notice was published in the
Federal Register on May 24, 1996 (61 FR 26220).
At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers are engaged
in employment related to the production of denim apparel. New
information submitted to the Department shows that some of the workers
had their wages reported to a separate unemployment insurance (UI) tax
account, Pastar, Inc., which is the parent company of Eagle Garment
Finishing, Inc.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include all
workers of Eagle Garment Finishing, Inc. who were adversely affected by
increased imports from Mexico or Canada. Accordingly, the Department is
amending the certification to include workers of Pastar, Inc.
The amended notice applicable to NAFTA-00937 is hereby issued as
follows:
All workers of Eagle Garment Finishing, Inc., a/k/a Pastar,
Inc., El Paso, Texas, who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after March 18, 1995, are eligible to apply for
