DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-39,953]

 
Zexel Valeo Compressor USA, Decatur, Illinois; 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 Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to 
Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on October 2, 2001, applicable 
to workers of Zexel Valeo Compressor USA, Decatur, Illinois. The notice 
was published in the Federal Register on October 19, 2001 (66 FR 
53251).
    At the request of a company official, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers were engaged 
in the production of automotive air conditioning compressors until the 
company ceased production by the end of 2001.
    New information shows that workers were retained at the subject 
firm beyond the October 2, 2003 expiration date of the certification. 
These employees will complete the close-down process until their 
termination on December 31, 2003. Based on these findings, the 
Department is amending the certification to extend the October 2, 2003 
expiration date for TA-W-39,953 to read December 31, 2003.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Zexel Valeo Compressor USA who were adversely affected by 
increased imports.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-39,953 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    ``All workers of Zexel Valeo Compressor USA, Inc., Decatur, 
Illinois, who became totally or partially separated from employment 
on or after August 17, 2000, through December 31, 2003, are eligible 
to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade 
Act of 1974.''

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 5th day of December 2003.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
