Fieldcrest Cannon, Inc., a Subsidiary of Pillowtex Corporation,
Including Leased Workers of Corestaff Agency, and Manpower, Scottsboro,
AL; Amended Certification Regarding Eligibility To Apply for Worker
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 on September 5, 2003, applicable
to workers of Fieldcrest Cannon, Inc., a subsidiary of Pillowtex Corp.,
Bath Division, including leased workers of Corestaff Agency,
Scottsboro, Alabama. The notice was published in the Federal Register
on October 10, 2003 (68 FR 58720).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the
certification for workers of the subject firm. Information provided by
the company shows that leased workers of Manpower were employed at
Fieldcrest Cannon, Inc., a subsidiary of Pillowtex Corp., Bath Division
to produce bath rugs at the Scottsboro, Alabama location of the subject
firm.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending this
certification to include leased workers of Manpower working at
Fieldcrest Cannon, Inc., a subsidiary of Pillowtex Corp., Bath Div.,
Scottsboro, Alabama.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all
workers employed at Fieldcrest Cannon, Inc., Bath Division who were
adversely affected by increased imports of bath rugs.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-52,475 is hereby issued as
follows:

    All workers of Fieldcrest Cannon, Inc., a subsidiary of
Pillowtex Corporation, Bath Division, Scottsboro, Alabama and leased
workers of Corestaff Agency and Manpower producing bath rugs at

Division, Scottsboro, Alabama, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after August 6, 2002, through
September 5, 2005, are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance
under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 6th day of November, 2003.
