Alaska Pulp Corp., Sitka Pulp Mill, Sitka, AK and Rowan Bay 
Logging, Sitka, AK; 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 January 27, 1994, applicable 
to all workers of the subject firm. The certification notice was 
published in the Federal Register on February 14, 1994 (59 FR 6964).
    As a result of a NAFTA petition (NAFTA 00185) for workers at Rowan 
Bay Logging of the Alaska Pulp Corporation in Sitka, Alaska, the 
Department reviewed the subject certification for workers of the Sitka 
Pulp Mill of the Alaska Pulp Corporation.
    New findings indicate show that the Alaska Pulp Corporation owns 
Rowan Bay Logging. Rowan Bay Logging ships its logs to the Sitka Pulp 
Mill whose workers were issued the instant certification on January 27, 
1994. Other findings show that Rowan Bay Logging had substantial worker 
separations in mid-1994 and that logging operations were reduced 
because of the reduced activity at the pulp mill.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers who were adversely affected by increased imports. Accordingly, 
the Department is amending the certification to show the Rowan Bay 
Logging.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-29,162 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of the Alaska Pulp Corporation, Sitka Pulp Mill, 
Sitka, Alaska and Rowan Bay Logging, Sitka, Alaska who became 
totally or partially separated from employment on or after October 
15, 1992 are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under 
Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this August 12, 1994.

Administrator, Office of Work-Based Learning.
