Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 135 / Monday, July 14, 2008 / Notices
Worker Adjustment Assistance and
Alternative Trade Adjustment
Assistance on May 12, 2008, applicable
to workers of Amphenol–TCS, a
subsidiary of Amphenol Corporation,
Nashua, New Hampshire. The notice
was published in the Federal Register
on May 29, 2008 (73 FR 30977).
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 electronic connectors and backplane
assemblies. The workers are separately
identifiable by articles produced.
New information shows that
temporary workers from Microtech and
Triton Staffing were employed on-site at
the Nashua, New Hampshire location of
Amphenol–TCS, a subsidiary of
Amphenol Corporation. The Department
has determined that these workers were
sufficiently under the control of the
subject firm to be considered temporary
workers.
Based on these findings, the
Department is amending this
certification to include temporary
workers from Microtech and Triton
Staffing working on-site at the
Cleveland, Ohio location of the subject
firm.
The intent of the Department’s
certification is to include all workers
employed at Amphenol–TCS, a
subsidiary of Amphenol Corporation
who were adversely affected by a shift
in production of backplane assemblies
to Mexico.
The amended notice applicable to
TA–W–63,155 is hereby issued as
follows:
pwalker on PROD1PC71 with NOTICES
‘‘All workers of Amphenol–TCS, a
subsidiary of Amphenol Corporation,
including on-site temporary workers from
Microtech and Triton Staffing, engaged in the
production of backplane assemblies, Nashua,
New Hampshire, who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or
after March 11, 2007, through May 12, 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.’’
