Employment and Training Administration
[TA-W-34, 736 and TA-W-34, 736A]
Lehigh Portland Cement Buffington Station Gary, Indiana;
Specialty Products Division Allentown, Pennsylvania; 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 Notice of Certification
Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on
August 7, 1998, applicable to workers of Lehigh Portland Cement,
Buffington Station, Gary, Indiana. The notice was published in the
Federal Register on August 28, 1998 (63 FR 46073).
At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the
certification for workers of the subject firm. New information shows
that worker separations occurred at the Specialty Products Division,
Allentown, Pennsylvania location of Lehigh Portland Cement. The
Allentown, Pennsylvania workers provided administrative services to
support the production of calcium aluminate cement at Lehigh's
manufacturing facility in Buffington Station, Gary, Indiana.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending the
certification to include workers of Lehigh Portland Cement, Specialty
Products Division, Allentown, Pennsylvania.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include all
workers of Lehigh Portland Cement who were adversely affected by
increased imports of calcium aluminate cement.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-34, 736 is hereby issued as
follows:
``All workers of Lehigh Portland Cement, Buffington Station,
Gary, Indiana (TA-W-34, 736) and the Specialty Products Division,
Allentown, Pennsylvania (TA-W-34, 736A) who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or after June 25, 1997
through August 7, 2000 are eligible to apply for adjustment
assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.''
Signed at Washington, D.C. this 29th day of April, 1999.
Grant D. Beale,
Acting Director, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
