    In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C.

Adjustment Assistance on April 12, 2007, applicable to workers of Sony

Division, including on-site leased workers of Staffmark, Mt. Pleasant, 
Pennsylvania. The notice was published in the Federal Register on April

    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 large screen rear projection televisions.
    New information shows that leased workers of Ruggieri Enterprises,

Pleasant, Pennsylvania location of Sony Technology Center--Pittsburgh, 
SXRD Rear Projection Television Division.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending this 
certification to include leased workers of Ruggieri Enterprises, d/b/a 
Spherion, working on-site through Staffmark, at the Anderson, Indiana 
location of the subject firm.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all

Rear Projection Television Division, Mt. Pleasant, Pennsylvania who 
were adversely affected by a shift in production to Mexico.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-61,159 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Sony Electronics Center--Pittsburgh, SXRD Rear 
Projection Television Division including leased workers of Staffmark
