[TA-W-62,517]


Berkline/Benchcraft, LLC Including On-Site Workers of Blue 
Mountain Trucking Blue Mountain, MS; 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 January 25, 2008, applicable to workers of 
Berkline/BenchCraft, LLC, Blue Mountain, Mississippi. The notice was 
published in the Federal Register on February 7, 2008 (73 FR 7319).
    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 upholstered furniture (stationary and motion).
    New information shows that worker separations occurred involving 
employees of Blue Mountain Trucking, Blue Mountain, Mississippi 
employed on-site at the Blue Mountain, Mississippi location of 
Berkline/BenchCraft, LLC.
    The Blue Mountain Trucking employees provide trucking support 
services for the Mississippi and Tennessee production plants of the 
subject firm.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending this 
certification to include all workers of Blue Mountain Trucking, working 
on-site at the Blue Mountain, Mississippi location of the subject firm.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers employed at Berkline/BenCraft, LLC, Blue Mountain, Mississippi 
who were adversely-impacted by increased company imports of upholstered 
furniture.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-62,517 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Berkline/BenchCraft, LLC, including on-site 
workers from Blue Mountain Trucking, Blue Mountain, Mississippi, who 
became totally or partially separated from employment on or after 
November 29, 2006, through January 25, 2010, 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 29th day of February 2008.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
