DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

TA-W-38,447
PINEBLUFF MANUFACTURING COMPANY
NOW KNOWN AS ELLERY HOMESTYLES, LLC
PINEBLUFF, NORTH CAROLINA
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 Certification of
Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on February
7, 2001, applicable to workers of Pinebluff Manufacturing
Company, Pinebluff, North Carolina. The notice was published in
the Federal Register on March 2, 2001 (66 FR 13086).
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 curtains
The workers of Ellery Homestyles, LLC, Pinebluff, North
Carolina (TA-W-41,083) engaged in the distribution of window
curtains were denied Trade Adjustment Assistance on March 27,
2002. Performance of services does not constitute production of
an article, as required by the Trade Act of 1874, and this
determination has been upheld in the U.S. Court of Appeals.
The petitioners provided new information after the issuance
of the March 27, 2002 denial indicating that after a company name
change in April 2001, Pinebluff Manufacturing Company is now
known as Ellery Homestyles, LLC.
Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification
determination to properly reflect this matter.
The intent of the Department's certification is to include
all workers of Pinebluff Manufacturing Company, now known as
Ellery Homestyles, LLC who were adversely affected by increased
imports.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-38,447 is hereby
issued as follows:
"All workers of Pinebluff Manufacturing Company, now
known as Ellery Homestyles, LLC, Pinebluff, North
Carolina who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after December 4, 1999, through
February 7, 2003, are eligible to apply for adjustment
assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974."
Signed at Washington, D.C. this 26th day of April, 2002.
