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, as
amended (19 USC 2273), the Department of Labor herein presents the
results of its investigation regarding certification of eligibility
to apply for worker adjustment assistance.
In order to make an affirmative determination and issue a
certification of eligibility to apply for Trade Adjustment
Assistance, the group eligibility requirements in either paragraph
(a)(2)(A) or (a)(2)(B) of Section 222 of the Trade Act must be met.
It is determined in this case that the requirements of (a)(2)(A) of
Section 222 have been met.
The investigation was initiated on October 8, 2004, in
response to a petition filed on behalf of workers of Dan River,
Inc., 111 W. 40th Street, New York, New York. The workers are
engaged in administrative support activities, which include
styling, sales, administration and management.
At the request of the company official, the petition
investigation was expanded to include the workers also performing
administrative support services for the firm at 1325 Avenue of the
Americas, New York, New York.
Employment at Dan River, Inc., 111 W. 40th Street, New York,
New York (TA-W-55,754) and Dan River, Inc., 1325 Avenue of the
Americas, New York, New York (TA-W-55,754A) declined in January
through September 2004 when compared to the same period of the
previous year.
The investigation revealed that workers at the above locations
are in support of Dan River’s home furnishing textiles and apparel
fabric production in Danville, Virginia. Workers of Dan River,
Inc., Danville, Virginia, are certified eligible to apply for trade
adjustment assistance under petition number TA-W-52,427.
The investigation further revealed that during the relevant
period, production at the firm’s manufacturing facility in
Danville, Virginia declined. In that same period the firm
increased its imports of furnishing textiles and apparel fabrics.
In accordance with Section 246 the Trade Act of 1974 (26 USC
2813), as amended, the Department of Labor herein presents the
results of its investigation regarding certification of eligibility
to apply for alternative trade adjustment assistance (ATAA) for
older workers.
In order for the Department to issue a certification of
eligibility to apply for ATAA, the group eligibility requirements
of Section 246 of the Trade Act must be met. The Department has
determined in this case that the requirements of Section 246 have
been met.
A significant number of workers at the facility are age 50 or
over and do not possess skills that are easily transferable.
Competitive conditions within the industry are adverse.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that increases of imports of articles
like or directly competitive with home furnishing textiles and
apparel fabric produced by Dan River, Inc., contributed importantly
to the total or partial separation of workers and to the decline in
sales or production at that firm or subdivision. In accordance
with the provisions of the Act, I make the following certification:
"All workers of Dan River, Inc., 111 W. 40th Street, New York,
New York (TA-W-55,754) and Dan River, Inc., 1325 Avenue of the
Americas, New York, New York (TA-W-55,754A) who became totally
or partially separated from employment on or after October 8,
2003 through two years from the date of certification 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.
