Acorn Products Co., Inc.; Hampden, Maine; Lewiston, Maine; 
Including Leased Workers of Manpower Temporary Services and Olsten 
Staffing Services, Hampden & Lewiston, Maine; 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 July 23, 1999, applicable to 
workers of Acorn Products Co., Inc., Hampden and Lewiston, Maine. The 
notice was published in the Federal Register on August 11, 1999 (64 FR 
43724).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. New information provided 
by the company shows that some employees of Acorn Products Co., Inc. 
were leased from Manpower Temporary Services and Olsten Staffing 
Services to produce selected socks and footware products at the Hampden 
and Lewiston, Maine facilities. Worker separations occurred at Manpower 
Temporary Services and Olsten Staffing Services as a result of worker 
separations at Acorn Products Co., Inc., Hampden and Lewiston, Maine.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending the 
certification to include workers of Manpower Temporary Services, and 
Olsten Staffing Services, Hampden and Lewiston, Maine leased to Acorn 
Products Co., Inc., Hampden and Lewiston, Maine.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Acorn Prroducts Co., Inc. adversely affected by imports.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-36,209 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Acorn Products Co., Inc., Hampden and Lewiston, 
Maine and leased workers of Manpower Temporary Services and Olsten 
Staffing Services, Hampden and Lewiston, Maine engaged in employment 
related to the production of selected socks and footware products 
for Acorn Products Co., Inc., Hampden and Lewiston, Maine who became 
totally or partially separated from employment on or after May 3, 
1998 through July 23, 2001 and eligible to apply for adjustment 
assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 19th day of November, 1999.
Grant D. Beale,
Program Manager, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
