Hedstrom Corporation, Arlington Heights, IL, Including Employees 
of Hedstrom Corporation Arlington Heights, IL Working In The States of: 
Nevada, Texas, Florida; Amended Certification Regarding Eligibility To 
Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and Alternative Trade 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 and Alternative Trade Adjustment 
Assistance on February 8, 2005, applicable to workers of Hedstrom 
Corporation, Arlington Heights, Illinois. The notice was published in 
the Federal Register on March 9, 2005 (70 FR 11704).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. New information shows 
that worker separations have occurred involving employees of Hedstrom 
Corporation, Arlington Heights, Illinois working in Nevada, Texas and 
Florida. These employees provide support function services for the 
production of children's leisure products such as swing sets, 
trampolines and sleeping bags produced at the Arlington Heights, 
Illinois location of the subject firm.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending this 
certification to include employees of Hedstrom Corporation, Arlington 
Heights, Illinois working in Nevada, Texas and Florida.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Hedstrom Corporation who were adversely affected by 
increased company imports.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-56,361 is hereby issued as 
follows:
    All workers of Hedstrom Corporation, Arlington Heights, Illinois 
(TA-W-56,361), including employees of Hedstrom Corporation, 
Arlington Heights, Illinois, working in Nevada (TA-W-56,361A), Texas 
(TA-W-56,361B), and Florida (TA-W-56,361C), who became totally or 
partially separated from employment on or after January 12, 2004, 
through February 8, 2007, are eligible to apply for adjustment 
assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, and are also 
eligible to apply for alternative trade adjustment assistance under 
Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974.
