Chemall, Inc., Calabrian Chemical

Corporation, CuC1 Department, Port

Neches, Texas; Amended Certification

Regarding Eligibility To Apply for

Worker Adjustment Assistance

In accordance with Section 223 of the

Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 2273) the

U.S. Department of Labor issued a

Certification of Eligibility to Apply for

Worker Adjustment Assistance on

December 22, 1999 applicable to

workers of Calabrian Chemical

Corporation, CuC1 Department, Port

Neches, Texas. The notice was

published in the Federal Register on

January 14, 2000 (FR 65 2432).

At the request of the State agency, the

Department reviewed the certification

for workers of the subject firm. The

workers were engaged in the production

of Cuprous Chloride (CuC1). New

information provided by the State

shows that Chemall, Inc., Kingwood,

Texas is the parent firm of Calabrian

Chemical Company, located in Port

Neches, Texas. New information also

shows that workers separated from

employment at the subject firm had

their wages reported under a separate

unemployment insurance (UI) tax

account at Chemall, Inc., Kingwood,

Texas.

Accordingly, the Department is

amending the certification to properly

reflect this matter.

The intent of the Department’s

certification is to include all workers of

Calabrian Chemical Corporation, CuC1

Department who were adversely

affected by increased imports of

Cuprous Chloride (CuC1).

The amended notice applicable to

TA–W–36,893 is hereby issued as

follows:

All workers of the CuC1 Department

engaged in employment related to the

production of Cuprous Chloride (CuC1) at

Chemall, Inc., Calabrian Chemical

Corporation, Port Neches, Texas who became

totally or partially separated from

employment on or after September 20, 1998

through December 22, 2001 are eligible to

apply for adjustment assistance under section

223 of the Trade Act of 1974.

Signed at Washington, DC this 31st day of

May, 2000.
