[TA-W-61,785; TA-W-61,785A]


Risdon International, Inc., Crown Risdon USA, Inc., Including On-
Site Leased Workers of Manpower, Inc., Middletown, NY; Risdon
International, Inc., Crown Risdon USA, Inc., Danbury, CT; 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), and Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974 (26 U.S.C. 2813), as
amended, the Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility
to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and Alternative Trade
Adjustment Assistance on August 28, 2007, applicable to workers of
Risdon International, Inc., Middletown, New York and Risdon
International, Inc., Danbury, Connecticut. The notice was published in
the Federal Register on September 11, 2007 (72 FR 51844).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the
certification for workers of the subject firm. The Middletown, New York
workers are engaged in the production of cosmetic packaging. The
Danbury, Connecticut workers store and distribute products manufactured
by Risdon.
    New information shows that leased workers of Manpower, Inc. were
employed on-site at the Middletown, New York location of Risdon
International, Inc. The Department has determined that the Manpower,
Inc. workers were sufficiently under the control of Risdon
International, Inc. to be considered leased workers.
    The State agency reports that following a change in company
ownership during 2006, some workers' wages at the subject firm were
reported under the Unemployment Insurance (UI) tax account for Crown
Risdon USA, Inc. until November 2006.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending this
certification to include leased workers of Manpower, Inc. working on-
site at the Middletown, New York location of the subject firm and to
show a change in ownership.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all
workers of Risdon International, Inc., Middletown, New York and Risdon
International, Inc., Danbury, Connecticut who were adversely affected
by a shift in production of cosmetic packaging to Mexico.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-61,785 and TA-W-61,785A are
hereby issued as follows:

    ''All workers of Risdon International, Inc., Crown Risdon USA,
Inc., including on-site leased workers of Manpower, Inc.,
Middletown, New York (TA-W-61,785) and Risdon International, Inc.,
Crown Risdon USA, Inc., Danbury, Connecticut (TA-W-61,785A), who
became totally or partially separated from employment on or after
July 3, 2006, through August 28, 2009, 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 21st day of September 2007.
Richard Church,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
