Mallinckrodt, Incorporated, Nellcor Puritan Bennett, 
Incorporated, Puritan-Bennett Corporation, Respiratory Division 
Carlsbad, CA; Amended Certification Regarding Eligibility To Apply for 
Worker Adjustment Assistance

    In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 
2273) the U.S. Department of Labor issued a Certification of 
Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on October 5, 
2000, applicable to workers of Mallinckrodt, Incorporated, Respiratory 
Division, Carlsbad, California. The notice was published in the Federal 
Register on November 1, 2000 (FR 65 65330).
    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 critical care medical equipment. New information 
provided by the State shows that Nellcor Puritan Bennett, Incorporated 
and Puritan-Bennett Corporation are business units of Mallinckrodt, 
Incorporated. New information also shows that workers separated from 
employment at the subject firm had their wages reported under two 
separate unemployment insurance (UI) tax accounts: Nellcor Puritan 
Bennett, Incorporated and Puritan-Bennett Corporation.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to 
properly reflect this matter.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Mallinckrodt, Incorporated, Respiratory Division who were 
adversely affected by increased imports of critical care medical 
equipment.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-37,910 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of the Mallinckrodt, Incorporated, Nellcor Puritan 
Bennett, Incorporated, Puritan-Bennett Corporation, Respiratory 
Division, Carlsbad, California who became totally or partially 
separated from employment on or after July 5, 1999 through October 
5, 2002 are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under 
section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.


    Signed at Washington, DC this 29th day of November, 2000.

Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
