Gerber Scientific, Inc., Gerber Scientific International, Inc., 
South Windsor, CT, Including Employees of Gerber Scientific, Inc., 
Gerber Scientific International, Inc., South Windsor, CT, Working in 
the Following Locations: Broadway, VA; Coraopolis, PA; Amended 
Certification Regarding Eligibility To Apply for Worker Adjustment 
Assistance and Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance

    In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 
2273), and Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974 (26 U.S.C. 2813), as 
amended, the Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility 
to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and Alternative Trade 
Adjustment Assistance on August 27, 2008, applicable to workers of 
Gerber Scientific, Inc., South Windsor, Connecticut. The notice was 
published in the Federal Register on September 12, 2008 (73 FR 53045).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers are engaged 
in the production of computer controlled systems for manufacturing 
apparel, soft goods, lenses for eyewear and signs.
    New information shows that worker separations have occurred 
involving employees of the South Windsor, Connecticut location of 
Gerber Scientific, Inc., Gerber Scientific International, Inc. working 
in Broadway, Virginia and Coraopolis, Pennsylvania. Mr. Eric Fulk and 
Mr. Thomas Glatch provided engineering support function services for 
the production of computer controlled systems for manufacturing 
apparel, soft goods, lenses for eyewear and signs produced at the South 
Windsor, Connecticut location of the subject firm.
    Information also shows that workers separated from employment at 
the subject firm had their wages reported under a separate unemployment 
insurance (UI) tax account for Gerber Scientific International, Inc.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending this certification to 
properly reflect these matters.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Gerber Scientific, Inc., Gerber Scientific International, 
Inc., South Windsor, Connecticut who were adversely affected by 
increased imports of computer controlled systems for manufacturing 
apparel, soft goods, lenses for eyewear and signs following a shift in 
production to China.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-63,878 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    ``All workers of Gerber Scientific, Inc., Gerber Scientific 
International, Inc., South Windsor, Connecticut, (TA-W-63,878), 
including employees in support of Gerber Scientific, Inc., Gerber 
Scientific International, Inc., South Windsor, Connecticut, working 
in Broadway, Virginia (TA-W-63,878A) and Coraopolis, Pennsylvania 
(TA-W-63,878B), who became totally or partially separated from 
employment on or after August 14, 2007, through August 27, 2010, are 
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the 
Trade Act of 1974, and are also eligible to apply for alternative 
trade adjustment assistance under Section 246 of the Trade Act of 
1974.''

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 19th day of September 2008.
