DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
[NAFTA--00683, 00683A, 00683B, 00683C and 00683D]
Lee Apparel Company, et al; 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 December 1, 1995, applicable to all workers of Lee
Apparel Company located in St. Joseph, Missouri.
At the request of the State agency and petitioners, the Department
reviewed the certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers
are engaged in employment related to the production of jeans. New
information received by the Department shows that worker separations
are occurring at Lee Apparel Company facilities in Seymour and Lebanon,
Missouri, Irvington, Alabama and Dalton, Georgia.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include all
workers of Lee Apparel Company who were adversely affected by imports
from Mexico. Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification
to cover the workers separated from Lee Apparel Company, Seymour and
Lebanon, Missouri, Irvington, Alabama, and Dalton, Georgia.
The amended notice applicable to NAFTA-00683 is hereby issued as
follows:
``All workers of Lee Apparel Company, St. Joseph, Missouri
(NAFTA-00683) and Seymour, Missouri (NAFTA-00683A), Lebanon,
Missouri (NAFTA-00683B), Irvington, Alabama (NAFTA-00683C), and
Dalton, Georgia (NAFTA-00683D) who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after November 8, 1994 are eligible
to apply for NAFTA-TAA under Section 250 of the Trade Act of 1974.''
Signed at Washington, D.C. this 18th day of October 1996.
Russell T. Kile,
Program Manager, Policy and Reemployment Services, Office of Trade
Adjustment Assistance.
