DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Employment and Training Administration
[TA-W-35,200 et al.]
Nabors Drilling USA, Inc., East Texas/North Louisiana District,
Headquartered in Kilgore, TX, Including Bayard Drilling Technologies;
Amended Certification Regarding Eligibility To Apply for Worker
Adjustment Assistance
In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 USC
2273) the Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to
Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on December 28, 1998, applicable
to workers of Nabors USA, Inc., East Texas/North Louisiana District,
headquarters in Kilgore, Texas operating at various locations in Texas
and Louisiana. The notice was published in the Federal Register on
January 25, 1999 (64 FR 3721).
At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the
certification for workers of the subject firm. New findings show that
Nabors Drilling USA purchased Bayard Drilling Technologies in April,
1999. New information show that some workers separated from employment
at Nabors Drilling USA had their wages reported under a separate
unemployment insurance (UI) tax account for Bayard Drilling
Technologies, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The workers provide drilling
services related to the exploration and production of crude oil and
natural gas.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending the
certification to include workers of Bayard Drilling Technologies.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include all
workers of Nabor Drilling USA, Inc. adversely affected by increased
imports.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-35,200 is hereby issued as
follows:
All workers of East Texas/North Louisiana District of Nabors
Drilling USA, Inc., headquartered in Kilgore, Texas (TA-W-35,200),
including Bayard Drilling Technologies operating at various
locations in Texas (TA-W-35,200A), Louisiana TA-W-35,200B) and
Oklahoma (TA-W-35,200D) who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after October 22, 1997 through December 28,
2000 are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Section
223 of the Trade Act of 1974.
