DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration
[TA-W-35,550]

 
FWA Drilling Company, Inc. a/k/a JSM & Associate A/K/A UTI 
Drilling, Midland, TX; 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 Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to 
Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on July 29, 1998, applicable to 
workers of FWA Drilling Company, Inc., Midland, Texas. This notice was 
published in the Federal Register on August 28, 1998 (63 FR 46073).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. Findings show that some 
workers separated from employment at FWA Drilling Company had their 
wages reported under two separate unemployment insurance (UI) tax 
accounts, JSM & Associates and UTI Drilling, Midland, Texas. The 
workers are engaged in providing contract drilling services in the 
crude oil and natural gas industry.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of FWA Drilling Company, Inc. who were adversely affected by 
increased imports. Accordingly, the Department is amending the 
certification to reflect this matter.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-34,550 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of FWA Drilling Company, Inc., also known as JSM & 
Associates and also known as UTI Drilling, Midland, Texas (TA-W-
34,550) who became totally or partially separated from employment on 
or after April 18, 1997 through July 29, 2000 are eligible to apply 
for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 
1974.

    Signed at Washington, DC this 27th day of October, 1999.
Edward A. Tomchick,
Program Manager, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
