Cone Mills Corporation; Haynes Plant,

Plant, Cliffside, North Carolina;

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 Notice of

Certification Regarding Eligibility to

Apply for Worker Adjustment

Assistance on June 17, 1997, applicable

to workers of Cone Mills Corporation,

Haynes Florence Plant located in

Henrietta, North Carolina. The notice

was published in the Federal Register

on July 18, 1997 (62 FR 38579). The

worker certification was subsequently

amended to correctly identify the plant

to read Haynes Plant instead of Haynes

Florence Plant and to include workers

of the Florence Plant in Forest City,

North Carolina (TA–W–33,477A). The

notice of amended certification was

published in the Federal Register on

July 18, 1997 (62 FR 38584). At the request of petitioners, the

Department reviewed the certification

for workers of the subject firm. The

workers produce denim. Findings on

review show that workers separations

have occurred at the subject firm’s

Cliffside Plant, in Cliffside, North

Carolina.

The intent of the Department’s

certification is to include all workers of

Cone Mills Corporation who were

affected by increased imports.

Accordingly, the Department is

amending the worker certification to

include the workers of the Cliffside

Plant of Cone Mills Corporation,

Cliffside, North Carolina.

The amended notice applicable to

TA–W–33,477 is hereby issued as

follows:

‘‘All workers of Cone Mills Corporation,

Haynes Plant, Henrietta, North Carolina (TA–

W–33,477) and Cliffside Plant, Cliffside,

North Carolina (TA–W–33,477B), who

became totally or partially separated from

employment on or after April 8, 1996 through

June 17, 1999, are eligible to apply for

adjustment assistance under Section 223 of

the Trade Act of 1974.’’

Signed at Washington, D.C. this 31st day of

October 1997.

[TA–W–33, 404]

Devoe & Raynolds Company,

Louisville, Kentucky; Notice of

Negative Determination on

Reconsideration

On July 18, 1997, the Department

issued an Affirmative Determination

Regarding Application for

Reconsideration for the workers and

former workers of the subject firm. The

petitioner presented new evidence

regarding company imports of paint.

The notice was published in the Federal

Register on August 1, 1997 (62 FR

41424).

The Department initially denied TAA

to workers of Devoe & Raynolds

Company, Louisville, Kentucky because

the ‘‘contributed importantly’’ group

eligibility requirement of Section 222(3)

of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended,

was not met. The workers at the subject

firm produced latex and alkyd paints.

The layoffs at the Louisville plant were

attributed to the corporate decision to

consolidate operations with that of the

parent company’s domestic plants in

Texas, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Florida.

The parent company did not import

paint from foreign sources.

New findings on reconsideration

show that the parent company of Devoe

& Raynolds, ICI Paints, operating in the

U.S. as Glidden, had a corporate-wide

sales increase from 1995 to 1996. Other

new findings reveal that the company

did import paint from its foreign

production facility. Company imports,

however, were negligible, accounting for

less that 1 percent of corporate-wide

sales in 1995 and 1996.

Conclusion

After reconsideration, I affirm the

original notice of negative

determination of eligibility to apply for

worker adjustment assistance for

workers and former workers of Devoe &

Raynolds Company, Louisville,

Kentucky.

Signed at Washington, DC, this 31st day of

October 1997.
