[TA-W-63,990]


Whirlpool Corporation, Oxford Division Including On-Site Leased 
Workers from Vend-A-Snack Inc., Willstaff, Inc., Cobra Security Inc., 
Tri-Star Companies Inc., Cross Gate Services Inc., and Impact Business 
Group, Oxford, 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 October 1, 2008, applicable to workers of 
Whirlpool Corporation, Oxford Division, Oxford, Mississippi, including 
on-site leased workers from Vend-A-Snack, Willstaff, Cobra Security, 
Tri-Star Companies, Inc., and Cross Gate Services, Inc. The notice was 
published in the Federal Register on October 20, 2008 (73 FR 62322).
    At the request of a company official, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers are engaged 
in the production of cooking products (household ovens, stove tops, and 
microwaves).
    New information shows that workers leased from iMPact Business 
Group were employed on-site at the Oxford, Mississippi location of 
Whirlpool Corporation, Oxford Division. The Department has determined 
that these workers were sufficiently under the control of the subject 
firm to be considered leased workers.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending this 
certification to include workers leased from iMPact Business Group 
working on-site at the Oxford, Mississippi location of the subject 
firm.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers employed at Whirlpool Corporation, Oxford Division, Oxford, 
Mississippi who were adversely affected by a shift in production of 
cooking products to Mexico.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-63,990 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    All workers of Whirlpool Corporation, Oxford Division, Oxford, 
Mississippi, including on-site leased workers from Vend-A-Snack, 
Willstaff, Cobra Security, Tri-Star Companies, Inc., Cross Gate 
Services, Inc., and iMPact Business Group, who became totally or 
partially separated from employment on or after September 4, 2007 
through October 1, 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 8th day of April 2009.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
