REC Silicon, Inc.; Including On-Site Leased Workers From Express 
Employment Professionals; Including Workers Whose Unemployment 
Insurance (UI) Wages Were Reported Through REC Solar Grade Silicon LLC; 
Moses Lake, Washington; REC Advanced Silicon Materials, LLC; Including 
On-Site Leased Workers From Spherion Recruiting and Staffing Silver 
Bow, Montana; Amended Certification Regarding Eligibility To Apply for 
Worker Adjustment Assistance

    In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended 
(``Act''), 19 U.S.C. 2273, the Department of Labor issued a 
Certification of Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance 
on March 22, 2013, applicable to workers of REC Silicon, Inc., 
including on-site leased workers from Express Employment Professionals, 
and including workers whose unemployment insurance wages are reported 
through REC Solar Grade Silicon, LLC, Moses Lake, Washington. The 
Department's notice of determination was published in the Federal 
Register on April 9, 2013 (78 FR 21153).
    At the request of a company official, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The company reported 
that the workers from REC Advanced Silicon Materials, LLC, including 
on-site leased workers from Spherion Recruiting and Staffing, Silver 
Bow, Montana (TA-W-82,458A) have been separated or threatened with 
separation due to the same conditions that led to certification of the 
workers at the Moses Lake, Washington facility. Specifically, the 
worker separations at both facilities are attributable to the 
acquisition from a foreign country by the firm of articles like or 
directly competitive with the polysilicon produced by the firm.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to 
include the workers of REC Advanced Silicon Materials, LLC, including 
on-site leased workers from Spherion Recruiting and Staffing, Silver 
Bow, Montana (TA-W-82,458A).
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-82,458 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    ``All workers of REC Silicon, Inc., including on-site leased 
workers from Express Employment Professionals, and including workers 
whose unemployment insurance wages are reported through REC Solar 
Grade Silicon, LLC, Moses Lake, Washington (TA-W-82,458) and REC 
Advanced Silicon Materials, LLC, including on-site leased workers 
from Spherion Recruiting and Staffing, Silver Bow, Montana (TA-W-
82,458A) who became totally or partially separated from employment 
on or after February 12, 2012 through March 22, 2015, and all 
workers in the group threatened with total or partial separation 
from employment on the date of certification through March 22, 2015, 
are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Chapter 2 of 
Title II of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended.''

    Signed in Washington, DC, this 24th day of December, 2013.
Michael W. Jaffe
Certifying Officer, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
