DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-59,414]

 
Bemis Company, Inc. Paper Packaging Division Including On-Site 
Leased Workers of Westaff, Peoria, IL; 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), and section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974 (26 U.S.C. 2813), as 
amended, the Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility 
to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and Alternative Trade 
Adjustment Assistance on June 8, 2006, applicable to workers of Bemis 
Company, Inc., Paper Packaging Division, Peoria, Illinois. The notice 
was published in the Federal Register on July 14, 2006 (71 FR 40159).
    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 industrial consumer package materials including 
multi-wall bags.
    New information shows that leased workers of Westaff were employed 
on-site at the Peoria, Illinois location of Bemis Company, Inc., Paper 
Packaging Division. The Department has determined that the Westaff 
workers were sufficiently under the control of Bemis Company, Inc. to 
be considered leased workers.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending this 
certification to include leased workers of Westaff working on-site at 
the Peoria, Illinois location of the subject firm.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers employed at Bemis Company, Inc., Paper Packaging Division, 
including on-site leased workers of Westaff, Peoria, Illinois who were 
adversely affected by a shift in production to Mexico.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-59,414 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Bemis Company, Inc., Paper Packaging Division, 
including on-site leased workers of Westaff, Peoria, Illinois, who 
became totally or partially separated from employment on or after 
April 25, 2005, through June 8, 2008, 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 at Washington, DC this 1st day of August 2007.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
