DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-59,685]


Laidlaw Corporation Now Known as Oldlaw Corporation Metropolis 
Division, Metropolis, IL; 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), and section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974 (26 U.S.C. 2813), as 
amended, the Department of Labor issued a Certification Regarding 
Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and Alternative 
Trade Adjustment Assistance on July 25, 2006, applicable to workers of 
Laidlaw Corporation, Metropolis Division, Metropolis, Illinois. The 
notice was published in the Federal Register on August 14, 2006 (71 FR 
46518).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers are engaged 
in the production of wire clothes hangers and drycleaning chemicals.
    New information shows that as of May 1, 2006, Laidlaw Corporation 
is now known as Oldlaw Corporation following a partial purchase of the 
subject firm's assets by a group of investors. Workers separated from 
employment at the subject firm had their wages reported under a 
separate unemployment insurance (UI) tax account for Oldlaw 
Corporation, Metropolis Division.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending this certification to 
properly reflect this matter.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Laidlaw Corporation, now known as Oldlaw Corporation, 
Metropolis Division, who were adversely affected by increased customer 
imports.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-59,685 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Laidlaw Corporation, now known as Oldlaw 
Corporation, Metropolis Division, Metropolis, Illinois, who became 
totally or partially separated from employment on or after July 7, 
2005, through July 25, 2008, 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 7th day of August 2007.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
