Panasonic Shikoku Electronics Corporation of America (PSECA), 
Including On-Site Leased Workers of Express Personnel Services 
Corporation, Vancouver, WA; Panasonic Shikoku Electronics Sales of 
America, LLC, Portland, OR; 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 Alternative Trade Adjustment 
Assistance on April 3, 2008, applicable to workers of Panasonic Sikoku 
Electronics Corporation of America (PSECA), including on-site leased 
workers of Express Personnel Services, Vancouver, Washington. The 
notice was published in the Federal Register on April 17, 2008 (73 FR 
20954).
    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 MMD/rear projection televisions.
    New findings show that worker separations occurred at the Portland, 
Oregon facility of Panasonic Shikoku Electronics Sales of America, LLC. 
Workers at the Portland, Oregon facility provide purchasing and sales 
activities supporting the production of MMD/rear projection televisions 
that are produced at the Vancouver, Washington location of the subject 
firm.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to cover 
workers at Panasonic Shikoku Electronics Sales of America, LLC, 
Portland, Oregon.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Panasonic Shikoku Electronics Corporation of America (PSECA) 
who were adversely affected by increased imports.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-62,835 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    ``All workers of Panasonic Shikoku Electronics Corporation of 
America (PSECA), including on-site leased workers of Express 
Personnel Services, Vancouver, Washington (TA-W-62,835), and 
Panasonic Shikoku Electronics Sales of America, LLC, Portland, 
Oregon (TA-W-62,835A), who became totally or partially separated 
from employment on or after March 22, 2008, through April 3, 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 22nd day of April 2008.
