    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 custom made carpets and rugs.
    The subject firm originally named Jack and Joel, Inc., was renamed 
Edward Fields, Inc. in April 2005. The State agency reports that 
workers' wages at the subject firm are being reported under the 
Unemployment Insurance (UI) tax account for Jack and Joel, Inc., 
College Point, New York.
    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 Edward Fields, Inc. who were adversely affected by increased 
company imports.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-57,805 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Edward Fields, Inc., formerly known as Jack and 
Joel, Inc., College Point, New York, who became totally or partially 
separated from employment on or after July 28, 2004, through 
September 23, 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.

    Signed at Washington, DC this 14th day of October 2005.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
