Ithaca Industries, Incorporated; 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 February 14, 1997, applicable to all workers of Ithaca Industries, Inc., Thomasville, Georgia. The notice was published in the Federal Register on April 29, 1997 (62 FR 23273).

At the request of a company official, the Department reviewed the certification for workers of the subject firm. New information shows that worker separations will occur in early February due to the closing of Ithaca's re-processing operation in Glennville, Georgia. The Glennville, Georgia workers are engaged in performing two operations for the production of men's and boy's undergarments; re-processing and sewing which will remain open. Based on these new findings, the Department is amending the certification to cover workers at the Glennville, Georgia facility.

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

The amended notice applicable to TA-W-33,050 is hereby issued as follows:

All workers of Ithaca Industries, Inc., Thomasville, Georgia (TA-W-33,050), and Glennville, Georgia (TA-W-33,050I) who became totally or partially separated from employment on or after December 4, 1995, through February 14, 1999 are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.

Signed at Washington, D.C. this 11th day of February, 1998. Grant D. Beale, Acting Director, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
