TA-W-55,434A
INCLUDING AN EMPLOYEE OF KENT SPORTING GOODS COMPANY, INC.

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
USC 2273), and Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974 (26 USC
2813), as amended, the Department of Labor issued a Certification
Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance
and Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance on September 8, 2004,
applicable to workers of Kent Sporting Goods, New London, Ohio.
The notice was published in the Federal Register on September 23,
2004 (69 FR 57094).
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 life vests.
The company reports that a worker separation occurred at the
Madison, Georgia location of the subject firm where the worker
provided telemarketing services for the subject firm’s production
plant located in New London, Ohio.
Based on these findings, the Department is amending the
certification to include the worker of the New London, Ohio
facility of Kent Sporting Goods located in Madison, Georgia.
The intent of the Department’s certification is to include
all workers of Kent Sporting Goods who were adversely affected by
increased company imports.
The amended notice applicable to TA-W-55,434 is hereby
issued as follows:
"All workers of Kent Sporting Goods, New London, Ohio (TA-W-
55,434), including an employee of Kent Sporting Goods, New
London, Ohio, located in Madison, Georgia (TA-W-55,434A),
who became totally or partially separated from employment on
or after August 3, 2003, through September 8, 2006, 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 in Washington, D.C. this 27th day of July 2006.
