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 February 3, 2016, applicable to workers and former workers of KBR, Inc., Houston, Texas (subject firm). The Department's notice of determination was published in the Federal Register on February 25, 2016 (81 FR 9511).

The amended notice applicable to TA-W-91,205 is hereby issued as follows:
