At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the certification for workers of the subject firm. New information shows that worker separations have occurred at the subject firms' Jersey Shore and Woolrich, Pennsylvania locations. Workers at these facilities are engaged in cutting and production of fabrics used in the production of ladies; and men's shirts/blouses at Woolrich, Incorporated. The Woolrich, Pennsylvania location is also the Headquarters and administrative office for the subject firm. The workers provide administration and support function services to Woolrich's manufacturing facilities.

The intent of the Department's certification is to include all workers of Woolrich, Incorporated adversely affected by increased imports.

The amended notice applicable to TA-W-36,297 is hereby issued as follows:

``All workers of Woolrich, Incorporated, Soperton facility, Soperton, Georgia (TA-W-36,297), Jersey Shore, Pennsylvania (TA-W- 36,297A), and headquarters and production facility, Woolrich, Pennsylvania (TA-W-36,297B) who became totally or partially separated from employment on or after May 21, 1998 through June 21, 2001 are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.''
