DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Kingstree Knits, a Division of Texfi Industries, Incorporated;
Amended Certification Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker
Adjustment Assistance
In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C.
2273) the Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to
Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on September 17, 1996,
applicable to all workers of Kingstree Knits, a Division of Texfi
Industries, Incorporated located in Midway, Georgia. The notice was
published in the Federal Register on October 1, 1996 (61 FR 51303).
At the request of petitioners, the Department reviewed the
certification for workers of the subject firm. Company officials report
that worker separations will occur at the subject firm's production
facilities in Lane, Olanta, and Andrews, South Carolina. The workers
are engaged in employment related to the production of tee shirts for
women, men and boys.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include all
workers of Kingstree Knits adversely affected by imports. Accordingly,
the Department is amending the certification to include all workers at
the subject firms' production facilities in Lane, Olanta, and Andrews,
South Carolina.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-32,561 is hereby issued as
follows:
``All workers at Kingstree Knits, a Division of Texfic
Industries, Incorporated, Midway, Georgia (TA-W-32,561), and in Lane
(TA-W-32,561A), Olanta (TA-W-32,561B) and Andrews (TA-W-32,561C)
South Carolina, who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after July 11, 1995 are eligible to apply for
adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.''
Signed at Washington, D.C. this 8th day of November 1996.
Curtis K. Kooser,
Acting Program Manager, Policy and Reemployment Services, Office of
Trade Adjustment Assistance.
