DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-38,307 and TA-W-38,307A]


Progress Lighting, Cowpens, SC; Progress Lighting, Philadelphia, 
PA; 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 
November 28, 2000, applicable to workers of Progress Lighting, Cowpens, 
South Carolina. The notice was published in the Federal Register on 
December 21, 2000 (65 FR 80457).
    At the request of the International Brotherhood of Electrical 
Workers, Local 2005, the Department reviewed the certification for 
workers of the subject firm. The company reports that worker 
separations occurred at the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania location of 
Progress Lighting. The Philadelphia, Pennsylvania location is a 
distribution center for the lighting fixtures produced in Cowpens, 
South Carolina.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending the 
certification to include workers of the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 
location of Progress Lighting.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Progress Lighting who were adversely affected by increased 
imports.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-38,307 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Progress Lighting, Cowpens, South Carolina (TA-W-
38,307) and Progress Lighting, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (TA-W-
38,307A) who became totally or partially separated from employment 
on or after October 28, 1999 through November 28, 2002, are eligible 
to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade 
Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 25th day of July, 2002.
Edward A. Tomchick,
Director, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
