Union Carbide Corporation, A Subsidiary of The Dow Chemical 
Company, West Virginia Operations, South Charleston, WV; Amended Notice 
of Revised Determination on Reopening

    In accordance with section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 
2273) the Department of Labor issued a Revised Determination on 
Reopening on July 26, 2004, applicable to workers of Union Carbide 
Corporation, a subsidiary of The Dow Chemical Company, West Virginia 
Operations, South Charleston, West Virginia. The notice was published 
in the Federal Register on August 4, 2004 (68 FR 62834).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
revised determination for workers of the subject firm. The workers at 
the West Virginia Operations, South Charleston, West Virginia, are 
engaged in the production of chemicals or derivatives thereof.
    The State agency reports that some workers wages at the subject 
firm have been reported to the Unemployment Insurance (UI) tax account 
for the parent company, The Dow Chemical Company. Therefore, to clarify 
worker group coverage, the revised determination is being amended to 
include the workers at the West Virginia Operations, South Charleston, 
West Virginia, whose wages are reported to The Dow Chemical Company UI 
account.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Union Carbide Corporation, a subsidiary of The Dow Chemical 
Company, West Virginia Operations, South Charleston, West Virginia, who 
were adversely affected by increased imports.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-54,957 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Union Carbide Corporation, a subsidiary of The 
Dow Chemical Company, West Virginia Operations, including those 
workers whose unemployment insurance wages were reported to The Dow 
Chemical Company, South Charleston, West Virginia, who became 
totally or partially separated from employment on or after September 
9, 2002, through October 17, 2005, are eligible to apply for 
adjustment assistance under section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed in Washington, DC, this 19th day of October, 2004.
