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 wood coatings (paints, lacquers, and stains).
New information shows that a worker separation has occurred
involving an employee (Mr. Reginald Gallant) working out of Lafayette,
Indiana, in support of and under the control of the High Point, North
Carolina, location of Valspar-Furniture Sales Group & International
Color Design Center, a subsidiary of Valspar Global Wood Coatings, d/b/
a/ Engineered Polymer Solutions.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending this
certification to include an employee in support of the High Point,
North Carolina, facility of the subject firm working out of Lafayette,
Indiana.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include all
workers of Valspar-Furniture Sales Group & International Color Design
Center, a subsidiary of Valspar Global Wood Coatings, d/b/a Engineered
Polymer Solutions, High Point, North Carolina, who qualify as
secondarily affected by increased imports of wood coatings (paints,
lacquers, and stains).
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-63,139 is hereby issued as
follows:
``All workers of Valspar-Furniture Sales Group & International
Color Design Center, a subsidiary of Valspar Global Wood Coatings,
High Point, North Carolina, (TA-W-63,139), including an employee in

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.''
