DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Employment and Training Administration
[TA-W-63,754]
Lane Funiture Industries, Inc., Including Workers whose UI Wages
Were Paid by Action Transport, Belden, MS; 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 August 20, 2008, applicable to workers
of Lane Furniture Industries, Inc., Belden, Mississippi. The notice was
published in the Federal Register on September 3, 2008 (73 FR 51529).
At the request of the company official, the Department reviewed the
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers were engaged
in the production of upholstered furniture.
New information provided to the Department shows that some workers
of the subject firm were former workers from Action Transport that were
hired permanently by the subject firm. These workers had their wages
reported under the Unemployment Insurance (UI) tax account for Action
Transport.
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 Lane Furniture Industries, Inc. who were adversely affected
by increased imports of upholstered furniture.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-63,754 is hereby issued as
follows:
``All workers of Lane Furniture Industries, Inc., including
workers whose wages were paid by Action Transport, Belden,
Mississippi, who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after July 28, 2007, through August 20, 2010, 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 1st day of May 2009.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
