DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-71,652]


Cooper Tools, Currently Known as Apex Tool Group, LLC, 
Hicksville, OH; Amended Certification Regarding Eligibility To Apply 
for Worker Adjustment Assistance

    In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended 
(``Act''), 19 U.S.C. 2273, the Department of Labor issued a 
Certification of Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance 
on April 27, 2010, applicable to workers of Cooper Tools, Hicksville, 
Ohio. The workers are engaged in activities related to the production. 
The notice was published in the Federal Register on May 28, 2010 (75 FR 
30069).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. New information shows 
that in July, 2010, Apex Tool Group, LLC. purchased Cooper Tools and is 
currently known as Apex Tool Group, LLC. Some workers separated from 
employment at Cooper Tools had their wages reported under a separate 
unemployment insurance (UI) tax accounts for Cooper Tools, currently 
known as Apex Tool Group, LLC.
    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 the subject firm who were adversely affected by increased 
imports of air tools, torque wrenches and screwdrivers.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-71,652 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Cooper Tools, currently known as Apex Tool Group, 
LLC, Hicksville, Ohio, who became totally or partially separated 
from employment on or after July 13, 2008 through April 27, 2012, 
and all workers in the group threatened with total or partial 
separation from employment on date of certification through two 
years from the date of certification, are eligible to apply for 
adjustment assistance under Chapter 2 of Title II of the Trade Act 
of 1974, as amended.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 3rd day of March 2011.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
