Carolina. The notice will soon be published in the Federal Register.
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers produce 
finished bedding fabrics, sheets and pillowcases.
    The review shows that all workers of Springs Industries, Inc., 
Grace Fabrication Plant, Lancaster, South Carolina, were certified 
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance and alternative trade 
adjustment assistance under petition number TA-W-52,788, which does not 
expire until October 7, 2005.
    In order to avoid an overlap in worker group coverage, the 
Department is amending the certification for workers of the Grace 
Complex to clarify that any workers separated from the Grace 
Fabrication plant through October 7, 2005 are covered by TA-W-52,788. 
Thereafter (October 8, 2005 through May 2, 2007), any worker separated 
from the Fabrication Plant will be covered by the certification for

for the period of May 2, 2005 through October 7, 2005, workers of 
Springs Industries Inc., Grace Fabrication Plant, Lancaster, South 
Carolina), are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under 
Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, and are also eligible to apply 
for alternative trade adjustment assistance under section 246 of the
