DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-37,862]

 
K & R Sportswear Now Known as K & R Kids, LLC, Spring Hope, NC; 
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 July 10, 2000, applicable to 
workers of K & R Sportswear, Spring Hope, North Carolina. The notice 
was published in the Federal Register on August 1, 2000 (65 FR 46954).
    At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. The workers are engaged 
in the production of children's swimwear. The company reports that in 
August-September, 2000, K & R Sportswear was purchased by Amerex Group, 
Inc. and became known as K & R Kids, LLC and continues to layoff 
workers.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification 
determination to correctly identify the new ownership to read K & R 
Sportswear now known as K & R Kids, LLC, Spring Hope, North Carolina.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of K & R Sportswear now known as K & R Kids, LLC who were 
adversely affected by increased imports of children's swimwear.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-37,862 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    ``All workers of K & R Sportswear, now known as K & R Kids LLC, 
Spring Hope, North Carolina who became totally or partially 
separated from employment on or after June 21, 1999, through July 
10, 2002, are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under 
section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.''

    Signed at Washington, DC this 16th day of July, 2001.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
