AVX Corporation, Myrtle Beach, SC; 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 U.S.C. 2273), the 
Department of Labor issued a Certification for NAFTA Transitional 
Adjustment Assistance on June 13, 1996, applicable to workers of AVX 
Corporation located in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The notice was 
published in the Federal Register on July 3, 1996 (61 FR 34875).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The affected workers 
were involved in the testing and packaging operations in the production 
of ceramic capacitors. New information provided by the company shows 
that workers are separately identifiable by product line. Accordingly, 
the Department is amending the certification to limit coverage to those 
workers of the subject firm in Myrtle Beach involved in testing and 
packaging operations related to production of ceramic capacitors.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include those 
workers of AVX Corporation who were adversely affected by the shift in 
production to Mexico.
    The amended notice applicable to NAFTA-01015 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    Workers of AVX Corporation, Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, 
involved in testing and packaging operations related to the 
production of ceramic capacitors, who became totally or partially 
separated from employment on or after May 7, 1995, are eligible to 
apply for NAFTA-TAA under Section 250 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, D.C. this 26th day of July 1996.
Russell T. Kile,
Acting Program Manager, Policy and Reemployment Services, Office of 
Trade Adjustment Assistance.
