reviewed the certification for workers of
the subject firm.
New information shows that worker
separations have occurred involving
employees of the subject firm who
telework from off-site locations
throughout the United States. These
employees provided various activities
related to software development
services. Based on these findings, the
Department is amending this
certification to include employees of the
subject firm who telework and report
into the Houston, Texas facility.
The intent of the Department’s
certification is to include all workers of
the subject firm who were adversely
affected by a shift in software
development services to a foreign
country.
The amended notice applicable to
TA–W–74,540 is hereby issued as
follows:
All workers of BMC Software, inc.,
including on-site leased workers from
Comsys ITS, and including remote workers
located throughout the United States,
Houston, Texas, who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or
after July 22, 2009 through November 23,
2012, and all workers in the group threatened
with total or partial separation from
employment on 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.

workers of Unimin Corporation,
including on-site leased workers from
Staffmark, Aurora, Indiana. The workers
are engaged in activities related to the
production of process olivine.
Specifically, the workers are engaged in
mining operations, processing, and
office support functions. The notice was
published in the Federal Register on
July 29, 2011 (76 FR 45623).
At the request of the State agency, the
Department reviewed the certification
for workers of the subject firm. New
information shows that workers leased
from Elwood Staffing were employed
on-site at the Aurora, Indiana location of
Unimin Corporation. The Department
has determined that these workers were
sufficiently under the control of Unimin
Corporation to be considered leased
workers.
The intent of the Department’s
certification is to include all workers of
the subject firm adversely affected by
actual/likely increase in imports
following a shift abroad.
Based on these findings, the
Department is amending this
certification to include workers leased
from Elwood Staffing working on-site at
the Aurora, Indiana location of the
subject firm.

After notice of the petitions was
published in the Federal Register and
on the Department’s Web site, as
required by Section 221 of the Act (19
USC 2271), the Department initiated
investigations of these petitions.
The following determinations

The following determinations
terminating investigations were issued

no purpose since the petitioning group
of workers cannot be covered by more
than one certification at a time.

Determinations Terminating Investigations of Petitions for Worker
Adjustment Assistance
After notice of the petitions was published in the Federal Register
and on the Department's Web site, as required by Section 221 of the Act
(19 USC 2271), the Department initiated investigations of these
petitions.
The following determinations terminating investigations were issued
because the petitioner has requested that the petition be withdrawn.

TA-W-80,343; Jostens State College, State College, PA
The following determinations terminating investigations were issued
because the petitioning groups of workers are covered by active
certifications. Consequently, further investigation in these cases
would serve no purpose since the petitioning group of workers cannot be
covered by more than one certification at a time.
