Certification Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment 
Assistance and Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance on November 14, 
2008, applicable to workers of Wellman, Inc., Palmetto Plant, including 
on-site leased workers from CMS Labor Services, Darlington, South 
Carolina. The Department's Notice of determination was published in the 
Federal Register on December 1, 2008 (73 FR 72847).
    At the request of a subject firm official, the Department reviewed 
the certification for workers of the subject firm. Workers produce 
polyester finer and resin, and are not separately identifiable by 
article produced.
    New information shows that some of the workers' wages are being 
reported under the State of South Carolina Unemployment Insurance (UI) 
tax accounts for Fiber Industries, Inc.
    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 Wellman, Inc., Palmetto Plant, also known as Fiber 
Industries, Inc., including on-site leased workers from CMS Labor 
Services, Darlington, South Carolina, who were adversely affected by 
increased imports of polyester fiber and resin.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-64,102 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    ``All workers of Wellman, Inc., Palmetto Plant, also known as 
Fiber Industries, Inc., including on-site leased workers from CMS 
Labor Services, Darlington, South Carolina, who became totally or 
partially separated from employment on or after May 4, 2008, through 
November 14, 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 9th day of February 2009
 Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
