DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
[NAFTA--00168; NAFTA--00168E]
Sara Lee Knit Products; Amended Certification Regarding
Eligibility To Apply for NAFTA Transitional Adjustment Assistance
In accordance with Section 250(a), Subchapter D, Chapter 2, Title
II, of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended (19 USC 2273), the Department
of Labor issued a Certification for NAFTA Transitional Adjustment
Assistance on August 5, 1994, applicable to all workers of the several
plants and facilities of the Sara Lee Knit Products, in Martinsville,
Virginia.
The certification was subsequently amended to cover workers at the
subject firm locations Virginia and North Carolina. The notices were
published in the Federal Register on March 10, 1995 (60 FR 13182), and
October 2, 1995 (60 FR 51502), respectively.
At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the
certification for workers of the subject firm. The Department is again
amending the certification to cover the workers separated from the Sara
Lee Knit Product production facility located in Eastman, Georgia. The
workers produce T-shirts. The company reports that the plant closed
November 16, 1995.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include all
workers who were adversely affected by increased imports from Mexico.
The amended notice applicable to NAFTA-00168 is hereby issued as
follows:
``All workers of Sara Lee Knit Products plants located in
Martinsville, Virginia (NAFTA-00168), and Eastman, Georgia (NAFTA-
00168E) who became totally or partially separated from employment on
or after December 8, 1993 are eligible to apply for NAFTA-TAA under
Section 250 of the Trade Act of 1974.''
Signed at Washington, DC, this 15th day of December 1995.
Russell T. Kile,
Acting Program Manager, Policy and Reemployment Services, Office of
Trade Adjustment Assistance.
