DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-54,761]

 
Detroit Diesel A Division of DaimlerChrysler Detroit, MI; Amended 
Certification Regarding Eligibility To Apply for Worker Adjustment 
Assistance and Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance

    In accordance with section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 
2273) the Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to 
Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on June 3, 2004, applicable to 
the workers of Detroit Diesel, a division of DaimlerChrysler, Detroit, 
Michigan. The notice will soon be published in the Federal Register.
    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 diesel engines.
    Information shows that the petitioner, the International Union, 
United Automobile, Aerospace & Agricultural Workers of America (UAW), 
requested Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance (ATAA) on behalf of 
the workers of the subject firm but that request was not addressed in 
the decision document.
    Information obtained from the company indicates that a significant 
number of workers of the subject firm are age 50 or over, workers have 
skills that are not easily transferable, and conditions within the 
industry are adverse. Review of this information shows that all 
eligibility criteria under section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974 (26 
U.S.C. 2813), as amended have been met.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to 
reflect its finding.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-54,761 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Detroit Diesel, a division of DaimlerChrysler, 
Detroit, Michigan who became totally or partially separated from 
employment on or after April 19, 2003, through June 3, 2006, are 
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under section 223 of the 
Trade Act of 1974 and are also eligible to apply for Alternative 
Trade Adjustment Assistance under section 246 of the Trade Act of 
1974.


    Signed in Washington, DC, this 14th day of June 2004.
Richard Church,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
