    Cequent Electrical Products, Inc., Formerly Known as Tekonsha 
Towing, Tekonsha, Michigan; Including Employees in Support of Cequent 
Electrical Products, Inc., Formerly Known as Tekonsha Towing, Tekonsha, 
Michigan, Working in the Following Locations:

TA-W-63,880A, Washougal, Washington.
TA-W-63,880B, West Linn, Oregon.
TA-W-63,880C, Temecula, California.
TA-W-63,880D, Urbandale, Iowa.
TA-W-63,880E, Weston, Wisconsin.

    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 26, 2008, applicable to workers of 
Cequent Electrical Products, Inc., Tekonsha, Michigan. The notice was 
published in the Federal Register on December 10, 2008 (73 FR 75137). 
The certification was amended on December 24, 2008 to include employees 
in support of the subject firm working in Washougal, Washington, West 
Linn, Oregon, Temecula, California, Urbandale, Iowa and Weston, 
Wisconsin. The notice was published in the Federal Register on January 
2, 2009 (74 FR 465-466).
    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 brake controls, breakaway kits and lights for the 
automotive and trailer industries.
    New information received from a company official shows that workers 
separated from employment at the subject firm had their wages reported 
under a separate unemployment insurance (UI) tax account for Tekonsha 
Towing.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending this certification to 
properly reflect this matter.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of the subject firm who were adversely affected by increased 
imports of brake controls, breakaway knits and lights.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-63,880, TA-W-63,880A, TA-W-
63,880B, TA-W-63,880C, TA-W-63,880D and TA-W-63,880E are hereby issued

support of Cequent Electrical Products, Inc., formerly known as

Washington (TA-W-63,880A), West Linn, Oregon (TA-W-63,880B), 
Temecula, California (TA-W-63,880C), Urbandale, Iowa (TA-W-63,880D), 
and Weston, Wisconsin (TA-W-63,880E), who became totally or 
partially separated from employment on or after August 6, 2007, 
through November 26, 2010, are eligible to apply for adjustment 
assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, and are also
