DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-61,254]


American & Efird, Inc., d/b/a Robison and Anton Textile Company, 
Fairview Division, Fairview, NJ; Amended Certification Regarding 
Eligibility To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and Alternative 
Trade 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 and a Negative Determination 
Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Alternative Trade Adjustment 
Assistance on May 10, 2007, applicable to workers of American & Efird, 
Inc., d/b/a Robison Anton Textile Company, Fairview Division, Fairview, 
New Jersey. The notice was published in the Federal Register on May 24, 
2007 (72 FR 29181).
    At the request of a company official, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers were engaged 
in the production of embroidery thread and yarn.
    In a request for an amendment, the company provided sufficient 
information to confirm that the skills of the workers at the subject 
firm are not easily transferable in the local commuting area.
    Information obtained also indicates that a significant number of 
workers of the subject firm are age 50 or over, workers have skills 
that are not easily transferable, and conditions in the industry are 
adverse. Review of this information shows that all eligibility criteria 
under Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974 (26 U.S.C. 2813), as amended 
have been met.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to 
reflect its finding.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-61,254 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    ``All workers of American & Efird, Inc., d/b/a Robison Anton 
Textile Company, Fairview Division, Fairview, New Jersey, who became 
totally or partially separated from employment on or after April 5, 
2006 through May 10, 2009, 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 Trade Act of 1974.''

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 13th day of June 2007.
Richard Church,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
