In accordance with section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 2273) the Department of Labor issued a Notice of Certification Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance on December 3, 2003, applicable to workers of Harriet and Henderson Yarns, Inc., Bladen Plant Clarkton, North Carolina. The notice was published in the Federal Register on January 16, 2004 (69 FR 2625).

At the request of the petitioners, the Department reviewed the certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers were engaged in the production of yarn.

The company reports that worker separations occurred at the Fort Payne Distribution Center, Fort Payne, Alabama location of the subject firm.

Based on these findings, the Department is amending the certification to include workers of Harriet and Henderson Yarns, Inc., Fort Payne Distribution Center, Fort Payne, Alabama.

The intent of the Department's certification is to include all workers of Harriet and Henderson Yarns, Inc. who were adversely affected by increased imports.
