[TA-W-56,172]

 
Cooper-Atkins Corporation, Including Leased Workers of Wal-Staf 
Staffing Agency, Gainesville, FL; 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 January 13, 2005, applicable to workers of Cooper-Atkins 
Corporation, Gainesville, Florida. The notice was published in the 
Federal Register on February 7, 2005 (70 FR 6460).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. Information provided by 
the company shows that leased workers of Wal-Staf Staffing Agency were 
employed at Cooper-Atkins Corporation to produce thermocouple 
thermometers at the Gainesville, Florida location of the subject firm.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending this 
certification to include leased workers of Wal-Staf Staffing Agency, 
Gainesville, Florida employed at Cooper-Atkins Corporation, 
Gainesville, Florida.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Cooper-Atkins Corporation who were adversely affected by 
increased imports.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-56,172 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Cooper-Atkins Corporation, Gainesville, Florida 
including leased workers of Wal-Staf Staffing Agency, Gainesville 
engaged in employment related to the production of thermocouple 
thermometers at Cooper-Atkins Corporation, Gainesville, Florida, who 
became totally or partially separated from employment on or after 
December 6, 2003, through January 13, 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 9th day of February 2005.
