[TA-W-83,024]


Blount International, Inc., Including On-Site Leased Workers From 
Express Employment Professionals, Portland, Oregon

[TA-W-83,024A]

Blount International, Inc., Carlton, Blount Including On-Site Leased 
Workers From Express Employment Professionals Milwaukie, Oregon; 
Amended Certification Regarding Eligibility To Apply for Worker 
Adjustment Assistance

    In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended 
(``Act''), 19 U.S.C. 2273, the Department of Labor issued a 
Certification of Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance 
on September 19, 2013, applicable to workers of Blount International, 
Inc., including on-site leased workers from Express Employment 
Professionals Portland, Oregon. The workers are engaged in activities 
related to the production of replacement parts and equipment including 
saw chain bars, rims and saw chains. The notice will be published soon 
in the Federal Register.
    At the request of a company official, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. Additional information 
shows that worker separations at the Milwaukie, Oregon facility are 
attributable to the same shift in production that was the basis for 
certifying workers at the Portland, Oregon facility.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to 
include workers of the Milwaukie, Oregon location of Blount 
International, Carlton, Blount, Inc.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-83,024 and TA-W-83,024A are 
hereby issued as follows:

    All workers of Blount International, Inc., including on-site 
leased workers from Express Employment Professionals, Portland, 
Oregon (TA-W-83,024) and Blount International, Carlton, Blount, 
Inc., including on-site leased workers from Express Employment 
Professionals, Milwaukie, Oregon (TA-W-83,024A), who became totally 
or partially separated from employment on or after August 23, 2012, 
through September 19, 2015, and all workers in the group threatened 
with total or partial separation from employment on the date of 
certification through two years from the date of certification, are 
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Chapter 2 of Title 
II of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended.

    Signed in Washington, DC, this 17th day of October 2013.
Michael W. Jaffe,
Certifying Officer, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
