DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
[TA-W-32,098]
Oshkosh B'Gosh, Columbia Cutting, Columbia, KY; Notice of Revised
Determination on Reopening
On April 22, 1996, the Department issued a Negative Determination
Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance,
[[Page 36089]]
applicable to all workers of Oshkosh B'Gosh, located in Albemarle,
North Carolina. The notice was published in the Federal Register on May
16, 1996 (FR 61 24814).
Based on a petitioner inquiry, the Department, on its own motion,
reviewed the findings of the investigation. New findings show that the
fabric cutting operations performed by workers of the subject firm
supported production of apparel at other Oshkosh B'Gosh plants. TAA
certifications have been issued for workers of Oshkosh B'Gosh
production facilities in various States.
Conclusion
After careful review of the additional facts obtained on reopening,
I conclude that increased imports of articles like or directly
competitive with apparel contributed importantly to the declines in
sales or production and to the total or partial separation of workers
of Oshkosh B'Gosh, Columbia Cutting, Columbia, Kentucky. In accordance
with the provisions of the Act, I make the following certification:
All workers of Oshkosh B'Gosh, Columbia Cutting, Columbia,
Kentucky, who became totally or partially separated from employment
on or after March 11, 1995, are eligible to apply for adjustment
assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.
Signed at Washington, D.C., this 21st day of June 1996.
Russell T. Kile,
Acting Program Manager, Policy and Reemployment Services, Office of
Trade Adjustment Assistance.
