Amended Certification Regarding Eligibility to

In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 USC 2273)
the Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to Apply for
Worker Adjustment Assistance on May 17, 2001, applicable to workers of LTV
Steel Mining Company, Hoyt Lakes, Minnesota who were engaged in the
production of taconite pellets. The notice was published in the Federal
Register on May 25, 2001 (66 FR 28928).
At the request of the United Steelworkers of America, Local Union

Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to include
workers of Cleveland Cliffs Mining Company employed at LTV Steel Mining
Company, Hoyt Lakes, Minnesota.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include all workers of
LTV Steel Mining Company adversely affect by increased imports.

follows:
"All workers of LTV Steel Mining Company, Hoyt Lakes,
Minnesota, engaged in employment related to the production of
