In accordance with section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C.

[[Page 34683]]
workers of Dresser Oil Tools, Dallas, Texas and operating at various
locations in Texas (TA-W-34,762) and Louisiana (TA-W-34,762D). The
notice was published in the Federal Register on October 9, 1998 (63 FR
54495).
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 oilfield equipment and provide office,
administration, management and sales services.
New information shows that Dresser Oil Tools, a Div. of Dresser
Industries, Inc. purchased Axelson, Inc. in 1994. Worker separations
occurred at Axelson, Inc. when it closed in March, 1999. The workers
are engaged in the production of oilfield equipment. The State reports
that some workers separated at Axelson, Inc., had their wages reported
under a separate unemployment insurance (UI) tax account for Dresser
Industries, Inc., Dallas, Texas.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending the
certification to include workers of Axelson, Inc.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include all
workers of Dresser Tools who were adversely affected by increased
imports of oilfield equipment.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-34,762 is hereby issued as
follows:
All workers of Dresser Oil Tools, Dallas, Texas, Axelson, Inc.,
Div. of Dresser Industries, Inc., and operating at various locations
in the following States: Texas (TA-W-34,762) and Louisiana (TA-W-
34,762D), who became totally or partially separated from employment
on or after July 6, 1997 through September 18, 2000 are eligible to
apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act
of 1974.
Signed at Washington, DC, this 10th day of June, 1999.
Grant D. Beale,
Acting Director, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
