Oshkosh B'Gosh, Columbia Cutting, Columbia, KY; Notice of Revised 
Determination on Reopening

    On April 22, 1996, the Department issued a Negative Determination 
Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance,

[[Page 36089]]

applicable to all workers of Oshkosh B'Gosh, located in Albemarle, 
North Carolina. The notice was published in the Federal Register on May 
16, 1996 (FR 61 24814).
    Based on a petitioner inquiry, the Department, on its own motion, 
reviewed the findings of the investigation. New findings show that the 
fabric cutting operations performed by workers of the subject firm 
supported production of apparel at other Oshkosh B'Gosh plants. TAA 
certifications have been issued for workers of Oshkosh B'Gosh 
production facilities in various States.

Conclusion

    After careful review of the additional facts obtained on reopening, 
I conclude that increased imports of articles like or directly 
competitive with apparel contributed importantly to the declines in 
sales or production and to the total or partial separation of workers 
of Oshkosh B'Gosh, Columbia Cutting, Columbia, Kentucky. In accordance 
with the provisions of the Act, I make the following certification:

    All workers of Oshkosh B'Gosh, Columbia Cutting, Columbia, 
Kentucky, who became totally or partially separated from employment 
on or after March 11, 1995, are eligible to apply for adjustment 
assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, D.C., this 21st day of June 1996.
Russell T. Kile,
Acting Program Manager, Policy and Reemployment Services, Office of 
Trade Adjustment Assistance.
