DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[NAFTA-6317]

 
General Cable Corp., Biccgeneral Cable Industries, Inc., Outside 
Voice and Data Telecommunications Div., Bonham, TX; 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 of Eligibility to Apply for 
NAFTA Transitional Adjustment Assistance on October 21, 2002, 
applicable to workers of General Cable Corp., Outside Voice and Data 
Telecommunications Div., Bonham, Texas. The notice was published in the 
Federal Register on November 5, 2002 (67 FR 67421).
    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 copper telephone cable.
    New information shows that for approximately six months, General 
Cable Corp., Outside Voice and Data Telecommunications Div. was 
operating under the name of Biccgeneral Cable Industries, Inc. and that 
workers separated from employment at the subject firm had their wages 
reported under a separate unemployment insurance (UI) tax account for 
Biccgeneral Cable Industries, Inc.
    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 General Cable Corp., Outside Voice and Data 
Telecommunications Div. affected by increased imports from Mexico.
    The amended notice applicable to NAFTA-06317 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    ``All workers of General Cable Corp., Biccgeneral Cable 
Industries, Inc., Outside Voice and Data Telecommunications Div., 
Bonham, Texas, who became totally or partially separated from 
employment on or after June 24, 2001, through October 21, 2004, are 
eligible to apply for NAFTA-TAA under Section 250 of the Trade Act 
of 1974.''


    Signed in Washington, DC, this 9th day of April 2003.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
