[TA-W-64,132]

 
JDS Uniphase, Including On-Site Leased Workers From Job Store 
Staffing Solutions and Spherion, Louisville, CO; Amended Certification 
Regarding Eligibility To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and 
Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance

    In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 
2273), and

[[Page 72851]]

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 October 28, 2008, applicable to workers of JDS Uniphase, 
including on-site leased workers of Job Store Staffing Solutions, 
Louisville, Colorado. The notice was published in the Federal Register 
on November 13, 2008 (73 FR 67209).
    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 optical transceivers.
    New information shows that workers leased from Spherion were 
employed on-site at the Louisville, Colorado location of JDS Uniphase. 
The Department has determined that these workers were sufficiently 
under the control of JDS Uniphase to be considered leased workers.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending this 
certification to include workers leased from Spherion working on-site 
at the Louisville, Colorado location of the subject firm.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers employed at JDS Uniphase, Louisville, Colorado who were 
adversely affected by increased imports and a shift in production of 
optical transceivers to China.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-64,132 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    ``All workers of JDS Uniphase, including on-leased workers of 
Job Store Staffing Solutions and Spherion, Louisville, Colorado, who 
became totally or partially separated from employment on or after 
September 26, 2007, through October 28, 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.''

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 18th day of November 2008.
Richard Church,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
