In accordance with Section 250(a), Subchapter D, Chapter 2, Title
II, of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended (19 USC 2273), the Department
of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to Apply for NAFTA
Transitional Adjustment Assistance on August 7, 1997, applicable to
workers of Levi Strauss and Company, located in El Paso, Texas. The
notice was published in the Federal Register on September 29, 1999 (64
FR 52543). In addition, the Department denied eligibility for an
additional eight Levi Strauss & Company facilities in Texas, Tennessee,
and California because there had not been threats of employment loss at
those facilities. The notice was also published in the Federal Register
on September 29, 1999 (64 FR 52542).
The company requested that the seven of the eight facilities
(NAFTA-03325H through NAFTA-03325L, and NAFTA-03325N and O) which were
previously denied be certified because of reduced work hours at each
facility and provided information to indicate that workers had their
work hours reduced by at least 20 percent. In addition, the company
requested that contractors working full-time at all of the facilities
also be included in the certification. The company also requested that
an additional eleven facilities and work sites in seven states (Texas,
Tennessee, California, Florida, Kentucky, Mississippi, and Nevada) be
included as a result of additional layoff announcements.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include all
workers of Levi Strauss and Company, including full time contractors
working at the identified facilities, who were adversely affected by
increased imports of denim and Docker apparel from Mexico.
The amended notice applicable to NAFTA-03325 is hereby issued as
follows:
All workers of the following Levi Strauss & Company facilities
who became totally or partially separated from employment on or
after August 8, 1999 through August 11, 2001 are eligible to apply
for NAFTA-TAA under Section 250 of the Trade Act of 1974:
