[TA-W-62,422]

 
Curtain & Drapery Fashions Including On-Site Leased Workers From 
Paychex Business Solutions, Lowell, NC; 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 December 19, 2007, applicable to workers of 
Curtain & Drapery Fashions, Lowell, North Carolina. The notice was 
published in the Federal Register on January 16, 2008 (72 FR 2943).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers were engaged 
in the production of curtains, bedspreads and comforters.
    New information shows that leased workers of Paychex Business 
Solutions were employed on-site at the Lowell, North Carolina location 
of Curtain & Drapery Fashions. The Department has determined that these 
workers were sufficiently under the control of Curtain & Drapery 
Fashions to be considered leased workers.
    Based on these findings, the Department is amending this 
certification to include leased workers of Paychex Business Solutions 
working on-site at the Lowell, North Carolina location of the subject 
firm.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers employed at Curtain & Drapery Fashions, Lowell, North Carolina 
who were adversely impacted by increased customer imports of curtains, 
bedspreads and comforters.

leased workers of Paychex Business Solutions, Lowell, North 
Carolina, who became totally or partially separated from employment 
on or after November 1, 2006 through December 19, 2009, 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 February 2008.
