DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Employment and Training Administration
[TA-W-60,526; TA-W-60,526A]
Hardwick Knitted Fabrics, Inc., West Warren, Massachusetts and
Hardwick Knitted Fabrics, Inc., New York, NY; 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 December 12, 2006, applicable to workers of
Hardwick Knitted Fabrics, Inc., West Warren, Massachusetts. The group
was certified based on the determination that the workers' firm was a
supplier to a primary firm whose workers were certified eligible to
apply for adjustment assistance. The notice was published in the
Federal Register on December 27, 2006 (71 FR 77800-77802).
The Department reviewed the certification for workers of the
subject firm. The workers of the firm located at Hardwick's West
Warren, Massachusetts facility produced circular knit fabric. Hardwick
Knitted Fabrics, Inc. also had a sales office in New York, New York,
but no affiliates or subsidiaries. The New York, New York, sales office
has closed and all employees have been separated from employment.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include all
workers of Hardwick Knitted Fabrics, Inc. who were secondarily affected
by Hardwick's loss of business with a primary firm.
Based on newly acquired information regarding separations at
Hardwick's New York sales office, the Department is amending the
certification to extend eligibility to apply for worker adjustment
assistance and alternative trade adjustment assistance to the workers
of Hardwick Knitted Fabrics, Inc., New York, New York, along with the
firm's workers in West Warren, Massachusetts.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-60,526 is hereby issued as
follows:
All workers of Hardwick Knitted Fabrics, West Warren,
Massachusetts (TA-W-60,526), and Hardwick Knitted Fabrics, Inc., New
York, New York (TA-W-60,526A), who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after November 30, 2005 through
December 12, 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.
Signed at Washington, DC, this 24th day of January 2007.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
