Cason Manufacturing Company

Stephenville, Texas; 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

November 24, 1997, applicable to all

workers of Cason Manufacturing

Company, Stephenville, Texas. The

notice was published in the Federal

Register on December 10, 1997 (62 FR

At the request of the State agency, the

Department reviewed the certification

for workers of the subject firm. New

findings show that the Department

incorrectly limited the certification to

‘‘all workers engaged in employment

related to the production of women’s

pants and skirts.’’ The intent of the

Department’s certification is to include

‘‘all workers’’ of Cason Manufacturing

Company, Stephenville, Texas adversely

affected by increased imports.

The Department is amending the

certification determination to correctly

identify the worker group to read ‘‘all

workers.’’

The amended notice applicable to

TA–W–33,966 is hereby issued as

follows:

All workers at Cason Manufacturing

Company, Stephenville, Texas who became

totally or partially separated from

employment on or after October 24, 1996 are

eligible to apply for adjustment assistance

under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.

Signed at Washington, DC this 11th day of

January 1998.
