ABB Vetco Gray, Inc., Houston, Texas, Bryan, Texas, Odessa, 
Texas' 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 14, 1999, applicable to 
workers of ABB Vetco Gray, Inc., Houston, Texas. The notice was 
published in the Federal Register on August 11, 1999 (64 FR 43724).
    At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. New information shows 
that worker separations occurred at the Bryan and Odessa, Texas 
locations of ABB Vetco Gray, Inc. The Bryan and Odessa, Texas locations 
provide administrative support function services for ABB Vetco's 
production facility located in Houston, Texas. The workers were engaged 
in activities related to the production of oil well drilling equipment.

the workers of ABB Vetco Gray, Inc., Bryan and Odessa, Texas.
