Koh-I-Noor Inc. a/k/a Sanford Limited; Bloomsbury, NJ; 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 January 8, 1998, applicable 
to workers of Koh-I-Noor, Inc. located in Bloomsbury, New Jersey. The 
notice was published in the Federal Register on February 6, 1998 (63 FR 
6209).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
determination for workers of the subjects firm. The workers of the 
subject firm are engaged in employment related to the production of 
pens. New information provided by the State indicates that on January 
6, 1999, the subject firm was sold to Sanford Limited and workers at 
the plant continued to manufacture pens. Sanford Limited is continuing 
to layoff workers.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of the subject firm adversely affected by increase imports. 
Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to include 
workers whose wages are being reported to Sanford Limited, formerly 
known as Koh-I-Noor.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-33,955 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Koh-I-Noor, Inc., also known as Sanford Limited, 
Bloomsbury, New Jersey, engaged in employment related to the 
production of pens, who became totally or partially separated from 
employment on or after August 31, 1997 through January 8, 2000, are 
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the 
Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, D.C. this 19th day of August 1999.
Grant D. Beale,
Program Manager, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
