Pace Industries; Georgia Warehouse; Midland, GA; 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.

Eligibility to

[[Page 40552]]

Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and a Negative Determination 
Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Alternative Trade Adjustment 
Assistance on June 16, 2006, applicable to workers of Pace Industries, 
Georgia Warehouse, Midland, Georgia. The notice will soon be published 
in the Federal Register.
    At the request of the company official, the Department reviewed the 
denial of eligibility for workers of the subject firm to apply for 
Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance. The workers are engaged in 
warehousing grill castings produced by Pace Industries, whose workers 
are certified eligible to apply for adjustment assistance.
    The workers of the firm's Georgia Warehouse were denied eligibility 
to apply for Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance because a 
significant number of workers were not 50 years of age or older. The 
company official has provided new information with respect to the 
number of workers over age 50. The Department has determined that this 
revised number of workers meets the significant number of workers 
requirement. Additionally, the investigation determined that the 
workers of the subject firm possess skills that are not easily 
transferable and competitive conditions in the industry are adverse.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending the determination to extend 
eligibility to apply for alternative trade adjustment assistance to the 
workers of Pace Industries, Georgia Warehouse, Midland, Georgia.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-59,490 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Pace Industries, Georgia Warehouse, Midland, 
Georgia, who became totally or partially separated from employment 
on or after May 30, 2005 through June 16, 2008, 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 in Washington, DC, this 7th day of July, 2006.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
