[TA-W-36,258 and TA-W-36,258A]


Burlen Corporation, Fitzgerald Plant, Fitzgerald, Georgia and 
Burlen Corporation, Tifton Plant, Tifton, Georgia; 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 Notice of Certification 
Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on 
September 20, 1999, applicable to workers of Burlen Corporation, 
Fitzgerald Plant, Fitzgerald, Georgia. The notice was published in the 
Federal Register on October 14, 1999 (64 FR 55751).
    At the request of the petitioners, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers were engaged 
in the production of women's underwear. New information shows that 
workers were separated in December, 1999 at the Tifton Plant, Tifton, 
Georgia location of Burlen Corporation. The workers are engaged in the 
production of women's underwear and provide distribution and shipping 
services for the subject firms' production facility in Fitzgerald, 
Georgia which closed in July, 1999.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to cover 
the workers of Burlen Corporation, Tifton Plant, Tifton, Georgia.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Burlen Corporation who were adversely affected by increased 
imports.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-36,258 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    ``All workers of Burlen Corporation, Fitzgerald Plant, 
Fitzgerald, Georgia (TA-W-36,258) and Tifton Plant, Tifton, Georgia 
(TA-W-36,258A) who became totally or partially separated from 
employment on or after May 14, 1998 through September 20, 2001 are 
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the 
Trade Act of 1974.''

    Signed at Washington, DC this 19th day of January, 2000.
Grant D. Beale,
Program Manager, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
