Amended Certification Regarding Eligibility to
Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance

In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19
USC 2273) the Department of Labor issued a Notice of
Certification Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker
Adjustment Assistance on February 20, 2001, applicable to workers
of Posies, Inc., Rockport, Maine. The notice was published in
the Federal Register on April 5, 2001 (66 FR 18118).
At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed
the certification for workers of the subject firm. New
information shows that worker separations occurred at Posies'
Showroom, Dallas, Texas when the company closed in August, 2000.
The Dallas, Texas location was the corporate showroom, sales and
marketing office which supported the production of children's
dresses at the subject firm's Rockport, Maine facility.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending the
certification to include workers of Posies, Inc., Posies Showrom,
Dallas, Texas.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include
all workers of Posies, Inc. who were adversely affected by
increased imports of children's dresses.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-38,325 is hereby
issued as follows:
"All workers of Posies, Inc., Rockport, Maine (TA-W-38,325)
and the Posies Showroom, Dallas, Texas (TA-W-38,325A) who
became totally or partially separated from employment on or
after November 3, 1999, through February 20, 2003, are
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Section
223 of the Trade Act of 1974."

Signed at Washington, D.C. this day of April, 2001.
