[TA-W-33,943; TA-W-33,943A]


Carolyn of Virginia, Inc.; Bristol, VA; Paulette Robes, Division 
of Lipson Brothers, Inc., New York, NY; Amended Certification Regarding 
Eligibility To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance

    In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 USC 
2273) the Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to 
Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on October 31, 1998, applicable 
to workers of Carolyn of Virginia Inc. located in Bristol, Virginia. 
The notice was published in the Federal Register on December 12, 1997 
(62 FR 65097).
    At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. New information provided 
by the company shows that the Paulette Robes, a division of Lipson 
Brothers, Inc. in New York, New York, distributed the garments produced 
by Carolyn of Virginia Inc., which is a subsidiary of Paulette. All 
workers of Paulette Robes were separated from employment as a result of 
the Carolyn of Virginia plant closure.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to provide coverage 
to all workers of the subject firm adversely affected by increased 
imports of ladies' robes. Therefore, the Department is amending the 
certification to expand coverage to workers of Paulette Robes, a 
division of Lipson Brothers, Inc. in New York, New York.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-33,943 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Carolyn of Virginia Inc., Bristol, Virginia (TA-
W-33,943) and Paulette Robes, Division of Lipson Brothers, Inc., New 
York, New York (TA-W-33,943A), who became totally or partially 
separated from employment on or after September 15, 1996 through 
October 31, 1999, are eligible to apply for worker adjustment 
assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, DC this 31st day of August 1998.
Grant D. Beale,
Acting Director, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
