[TA-W-61,899]


Ortronics, Incorporated, a Subsidiary of Legrand, including On-
Site Leased Workers of Defender Services, Staffmasters USA and Holland 
Employment Group, Dallas, NC; 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 of Eligibility 
to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and Alternative Trade 
Adjustment Assistance on August 13, 2007, applicable to workers of 
Ortronics, Incorporated, a subsidiary of Legrand, including on-site 
leased workers from Defender Services, Dallas, Texas. The notice was 
published in the Federal Register on August 30, 2007 (72 FR 50126).
    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 structured cabling and fiber optic products.
    New information shows that leased workers of Staffmaster USA and 
Holland Employment Group were employed on-site at the Dallas, North 
Carolina location of Orthronics, Incorporated, a subsidiary of Legrand. 
The Department has determined that the Staffmaster USA and Holland 
Employment Group workers were sufficiently under the control of 
Ortronics, Incorporated to be considered leased workers.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending this 
certification to include leased workers of Staffmaster USA and Holland 
Employment Group working on-site at the Dallas, North Carolina location 
of the subject firm.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers employed at Ortronics, Incorporated, a subsidiary of Legrand, 
Dallas, North Carolina who were adversely affected by a shift in 
production to Mexico.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-61,899 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    ``All workers of Ortronics, Incorporated, a subsidiary of 
Legrand, including on-site leased workers of Defender Services, 
Staffmasters USA, and Holland Employment Group, Dallas, North 
Carolina, who became totally or partially separated from employment 
on or after July 27, 2006, through August 13, 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 6th day of September 2007.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
