Staffing, North Windham, CT; Including Employees in Support of Keeper 
Corporation, North Windham, CT Working in the Following Locations: TA-
W-62,932B, Lawrenceville, GA; TA-W-62,932C, Smyrna, TN; 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 March 13, 2008, applicable to workers of 
Keeper Corporation, including on-site leased workers of AAA Staffing, 
North Windham, Connecticut. The notice was published in the Federal 
Register on March 26, 2008 (73 FR 16064).
    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 cargo control products such as tie downs, towing 
straps and bungee cords.
    New information shows that worker separations have occurred 
involving employees in support of the North Windham, Connecticut 
facility of Keeper Corporation working out of Lawrenceville, Georgia 
and Smyrna, Tennessee. Ms. J. Ginger Paige and Mr. Dan Watson provided 
sales functions supporting the production of cargo control products 
such as tie downs, towing straps and bungee cords at the North Windham, 
Connecticut location of the subject firm.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending this 
certification to include employees of the North Windham, Connecticut 
facility of Keeper Corporation working out of Lawrenceville, Georgia 
and Smyrna, Tennessee.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Keeper Corporation, North Windham, Connecticut who were 
adversely affected by a shift in production of cargo control products 
such as tie downs, towing straps and bungee cords to China.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-62,932 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Keeper Corporation, including on-site leased 
workers of AAA Staffing, North Windham, Connecticut (TA-W-62,932), 
all workers of Keeper Corporation, Manchester, Connecticut (TA-W-
62,932A), including employees in support of Keeper Corporation, 
North Windham, Connecticut working out of Lawrenceville, Georgia 
(TA-W-62,932B) and Smyrna, Tennessee (TA-W-62,932C), who became 
totally or partially separated from employment on or after February 
28, 2007, through March 13, 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.
