DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-60,887]

 
Clayton Marcus Co., a Division of Rowe Fine Furniture, Inc. 
(``Rowe''), Plant 1 Bethlehem, Hickory, NC; 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 Regarding 
Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and Alternative 
Trade Adjustment Assistance on March 21, 2007, applicable to workers of 
Clayton Marcus Co., Plant 1 Bethlehem, Hickory, North Carolina. The 
notice was published in the Federal Register on April 6, 2007 (72 FR 
17184).
    At the request of a company official, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers are engaged 
in employment related to the production of upholstered furniture.
    New information shows that in October 2007, Rowe Fine Furniture, 
Inc. (``Rowe'') purchased Clayton Marcus Co., Plant 1 Bethlehem and 
that some of the workers' wages at the subject firm are being reported 
under the Unemployment Insurance (UI) tax accounts for Rowe Fine 
Furniture, Inc. (``Rowe'').
    Accordingly, the Department is amending this certification to 
properly reflect this matter.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Clayton Marcus Co., Plant 1 Bethlehem, a division of Rowe 
Fine Furniture, Inc. (``Rowe'') who were adversely affected by 
increased imports of upholstered furniture.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-60,887 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    ``All workers of Clayton Marcus Co., a division of Rowe Fine 
Furniture, Inc. (``Rowe''), Plant 1 Bethlehem, Hickory, North 
Carolina, who became totally or partially separated from employment 
on or after April 22, 2006, through March 21, 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 5th day of August 2008.
Richard Church,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
