[TA-W-64,401]


Qimonda 200MM Facility, Including On-Site Leased Workers From 
Tokyo Electron America, Nikon Precision, Inc., Ebara Technologies, 
Inc., Air Products and Chemicals, Inc., PSI Repair Services, Exel 
Logistics, Xperts, Inc., KLA-Tencor Craftcorps, Inc. and Colonial Webb, 
and Qimonda North America Corporation, Qimonda Richmond, a Subsidiary 
of Qimonda AG, Sandston, VA; 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 December 11, 2008, applicable to workers of 
Qimonda 200MM Facility, Sandston, Virginia. The notice was published in 
the Federal Register on December 30, 2008 (73 FR 79914). The 
certification was amended on February 10, 2009, March 3, 2009, March 
31, 2009 and June 12, 2009 to include on-site leased workers of Tokyo 
Electron America, Nikon Precision, Ebara Technologies, Air Products and 
Chemicals, Inc., PSI Repair Services, Exel Logistics, Xperts, Inc. and 
KLA/Tencor and Qimonda North America Corp., Qimonda Richmond, an on-
site subsidiary of the subject firm. These notices were published in 
the Federal Register on February 23, 2009 (74 FR 8111), March 11, 2009 
(74 FR 10619), April 7, 2009 (74 FR 15752) and June 24, 2009 (74 FR 
30112), respectfully.
    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 DRAM semiconductor wafers.
    The company reports that workers leased from Craftscorps, Inc., and 
Colonial Webb were employed on-site at the Sandston, Virginia location 
of Qimonda 200MM Facility. The Department has determined that these 
workers were sufficiently under the control of Qimonda 200MM Facility 
to be considered leased workers.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending this 
certification to include workers leased from Craftscorps, Inc., and 
Colonial Webb working on-site at the Sandston, Virginia location of the 
subject firm.
    The intent of the Department's certification to include all workers 
employed at Qimonda 200MM Facility, Sandston, Virginia who were 
adversely affected by a shift in production to a foreign country 
followed by increased imports of articles like or directly competitive 
with DRAM semiconductor wafers produced by the subject firm.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-64,401 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Qimonda 200MM Facility, including on-site leased 
workers from Tokyo Electron America, Nikon Precision, Inc., Ebara 
Technologies, Inc., Air Products and Chemicals, Inc., PSI Repair 
Services, Exel Logistics, Xperts, Inc., KLA-Tensor, Craftscorps, 
Inc., and Colonial Webb and including on-site workers of Qimonda 
North America Corp., Qimonda Richmond, a subsidiary of Qimonda AG, 
Sandston, Virginia, who became totally or partially separated from 
employment on or after November 11, 2007 through December 11, 2010, 
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 15th day of July 2009.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
