Towers, Inc., including on-site leased
workers from Advantage Staffing and
SOS Staffing, Abilene, Texas. The
workers are engaged in activities related
to the production of utility scale wind
towers. The notice was published in the
Federal Register on February 24, 2014
(79 FR 10187).
At the request of Texas State, the
Department reviewed the certification
for workers of the subject firm. The
subject firm originally named Tower
Tech Systems, Inc. was renamed

workers separated from employment at
the Abilene, Texas location of
Broadwind Towers, Inc. had their wages
reported through a separate
Unemployment Insurance (UI) tax
account under the name Tower Tech
Systems, Inc.
Accordingly, the Department is
amending this certification to include
workers of the subject firm whose
unemployment insurance (UI) wages are
reported through Tower Tech Systems,
Inc.
The intent of the Department’s
certification is to include all workers of
the subject firm who were adversely
affected on the basis of an International
Trade Commission (ITC) finding of
injury.
The amended notice applicable to
TA–W–83,325 is hereby issued as
follows:
All workers from Broadwind Towers, Inc.,
formerly known as Tower Tech Systems, Inc.,
including on-site leased workers from
Advantage Staffing and SOS Staffing,
Abilene, Texas, who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or

2014, are eligible to apply for adjustment
assistance under Chapter 2 of Title II of the
