Jansport, Incorporated and Burlington,

WA, et al; 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

October 26, 1997, applicable to all

workers of JanSport, Incorporated

located in Burlington, Washington. The

notice was published in the Federal

Register on November 7, 1997 (62 FR

60279).

At the request of petitioners, the

Department reviewed the certification

for workers of the subject firm.

Information provided by the company

official and the State agency show that

worker separations will occur at

JanSport’s sewing operations in Everett,

Washington and the production facility

in Wenatchee, Washington. The workers

are engaged in employment related to

the production of backpacks and

equipment products. Based on this new

information, the Department is

amending the certification to include

workers at the sewing operations in

Everett, Washington and the production

facility in Wenatchee, Washington.

The intent of the Department’s

certification is to include all workers of

the subject firm who were adversely

affected by increased imports.

The amended notice applicable to

TA–W–33, 876 is hereby issued as

follows:

‘‘All workers of JanSport, Incorporated,

Burlington, Washington (TA–W–33, 876); the

Sewing Operations in Everett, Washington

(TA–W–33, 876A); and Wenatchee,

Washington (TA–W–33. 876B), who became

totally or partially separated from

employment on or after September 22, 1996

through October 26, 1999, are eligible to

apply for adjustment assistance under

Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.’’
