[TA-W-70,232; TA-W-70,232A]
Halliburton Company, Duncan Mfg., Including On-Site Leased
Workers from Express Personnel, Clayton Personnel Service, and Manpower
Planning, Duncan, OK; Halliburton Company, Technology and Engineering
Division, Finance and Administration Division, Duncan, OK; Amended
Certification Regarding Eligibility To Apply for Worker Adjustment
Assistance
In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended
(``Act''), 19 U.S.C. 2273, the Department of Labor issued a
Certification of Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance
on August 21, 2009, applicable to workers of Halliburton Company,
Duncan Mfg., including on-site leased workers from Express Personnel,
Clayton Personnel Service and Manpower Planning, Duncan, Oklahoma. The
notice was published in the Federal Register on September 22, 2009 (74
FR 48300).
At the request of the State Agency, the Department reviewed the
certification for workers of the Technology and Engineering Division,
and Finance and Administration Division.
Additional information revealed that workers of the Technology and
Engineering Division, and Finance and Administration Division were
adversely affected by the firm's shift in production of oil field
service equipment from the Duncan, Oklahoma facility to India, China,
Malaysia and Mexico, which was the basis for certification of TA-W-
70,232. In addition, a significant number or proportion of workers of
the Technology and Engineering Division and Finance and Administration
Division were separated during the relevant period.
Workers of Halliburton Company, Technology and Engineering
Division, and Finance and Administration Division, Duncan, Oklahoma,
were certified eligible for trade adjustment assistance in a subsequent
investigation, TA-W-73,525 and TA-W-73,525A, respectively. The impact
date for both certifications is February 17, 2009. Halliburton Company
also employs a separate group of workers in the Duncan Field Camp
Division, who did not support the production of oil field service
equipment. Workers of Duncan Field Camp Division were denied
eligibility for trade adjustment assistance per TA-W-73,525B and are
not subject to this amendment.
The intent of the Department's amended certification is to cover
workers in the Technology and Engineering Division and Finance and
Administration Division who were separated on or after the impact date
of TA-W-70,232 on May 19, 2008 through the impact date of TA-W-73,525
and TA-W-73,525A on February 17, 2009.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-70,232 is hereby issued as
follows:
All workers Halliburton Company, Duncan Mfg., including on-site
leased workers from Express Personnel, Clayton Personnel Service and
Manpower Planning, Duncan, Oklahoma (TA-W-70,232) who became totally
or partially separated from employment on or after May 19, 2008,
through August 21, 2011, and all workers in the group threatened
with total or partial separation from employment on the date of
certification through two years from the date of certification, are
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Chapter 2 of Title
II of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended, and all workers Halliburton
Company, Technology and Engineering Division, and Finance and
Administration Division, Duncan, Oklahoma (TA-W-70,232A) who became
totally or partially separated from employment on or after May 19,
2008 through February 16, 2009 are eligible to apply for adjustment
assistance under Chapter 2 of Title II of the Trade Act of 1974, as
amended.
Signed in Washington, DC, this 2nd day of August, 2010.

Certifying Officer, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
