DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-62,393]

 
American Axle & Manufacturing, Buffalo Gear and Axle Facility, 
Including On-Site Leased Workers From Henkel Corporation, Buffalo, NY; 
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 November 21, 2007, applicable to workers of 
American Axle & Manufacturing, Buffalo Gear and Axle Facility, Buffalo, 
New York. The notice was published in the Federal Register on December 
10, 2007 (72 FR 69710).
    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 rear axle and steering linkage assemblies.
    New information shows that leased workers of Henkel Corporation 
were employed on-site at the Buffalo, New York location of American 
Axle & Manufacturing, Buffalo Gear and Axle Facility. The Department 
has determined that these workers were sufficiently under the control 
of the subject firm to be considered leased workers.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending this 
certification to include leased workers of Henkel Corporation working 
on-site at the Buffalo, New York location of the subject firm.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers employed at American Axle & Manufacturing, Buffalo Gear and 
Axle Facility, Buffalo, New York who were adversely-impacted by a shift 
in production of rear axle and steering linkage assemblies to Canada 
and Mexico.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-62,393 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of American Axle & Manufacturing, Buffalo Gear and 
Axle Facility, including on-site leased workers from Henkel 
Corporation, Buffalo, New York, who became totally or partially 
separated from employment on or after October 18, 2006, through 
November 21, 2009, 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.
