DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-64,757]

 
Ferro Corporation, Inorganic Specialties Division, Including On-
Site Leased Workers From Spherion, Toccoa, Georgia; 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 January 15, 2009, applicable to workers of 
Ferro Corporation, Inorganic Specialties Division, Toccoa, Georgia. The 
notice was published in the Federal Register on February 2, 2009 (74 FR 
5871).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers produce 
inorganic pigments.
    New information provided by the company shows that workers leased 
from Spherion were employed on-site at Ferro Corporation, Inorganic 
Specialties Division, Toccoa, Georgia.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers at the subject firm who were adversely affected by the shift in 
production to Mexico.
    The Department has determined that these workers were sufficiently 
under the control of Ferro Corporation, Inorganic Specialties Division, 
to be considered leased workers.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending this certification to 
include workers leased from Spherion working on-site at Ferro 
Corporation, Inorganic Specialties Division, Toccoa, Georgia.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-64,757 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Ferro Corporation, Inorganic Specialties 
Division, Toccoa, Georgia, including on-site leased workers from 
Spherion, who became totally or partially separated from employment 
on or after December 18, 2007 through January 15, 2011, 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 in Washington, DC, this 7th day of April 2009.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
