Department of Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to Apply for 
Worker Adjustment Assistance on August 31, 2000, applicable to workers 
of Wolverine Worldwide, Inc., Kirksville, Missouri. The notice was 
published in the Federal Register on September 22, 2000 (65 FR 57386).
    At the request of the company and the State agency, the Department 
reviewed the certification for workers of the subject firm. New 
information shows that Mr. Clifford Lumsden was retained at the subject 
firm as a security guard/maintenance personnel until the plant closed 
in September 2002 resulting in Mr. Lumsden's termination. Information 
also shows that Mr. Lumsden was separated from the subject firm after 
the August 31, 2002 expiration date of previous certification.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Wolverine Worldwide, Inc. who were adversely affected by 
increased imports. Therefore, the Department is amending the 
certification to extend coverage through October 31, 2002 to include Mr 
Clifford Lumsden.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-37,937 is hereby issued as 
follows:


    ``All workers of Wolverine Worldwide, Inc., Kirksville, 
Missouri, who became totally or partially separated from employment 
on or after July 17, 1999, through October 31, 2002, are eligible to 
apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act 
of 1974.''


    Signed at Washington, DC this 24th day of January 2003.
Edward A. Tomchick,
Director, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
