SHASTA PAPER COMPANY

ANDERSON, CALIFORNIA

Amended Certification Regarding Eligibility to
Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance

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 January
17, 2002, applicable to workers of Shasta Paper Company,
Anderson, California. The notice was published in the Federal
Register on January 31, 2002 (67 FR 4750).
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 coated and uncoated printing
paper.
New information shows that Shasta Acquisition is the parent
firm of Shasta Paper Company and Plainwell Paper. Information
also shows that some workers separated from employment at the
subject firm had their wages reported under two separate
unemployment insurance (UI) tax accounts; Shasta Acquisition and
Plainwell Paper.
Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to
properly reflect this matter.


The intent of the Department=s certification is to include
all workers of Shasta Paper, Anderson, California who were
adversely affected by increased imports.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-40,099 is hereby
issued as follows:
"All workers of Shasta Paper Company, Shasta
Acquisition and Plainwell Paper, Anderson, California,
engaged in the production of coated and uncoated
printing paper, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after September 4,
2000, through January 17, 2004, are eligible to apply
for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the
Trade Act of 1974."

Signed at Washington, D.C. this 25th day of July, 2002.
