Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 24 / Monday, February 7, 2005 / Notices
separations at the subject firm were the
result of a shift of production of acrylic
monomers to China.
During the reconsideration
investigation, it was found that workers
are not separately identifiable by
product line and that acrylic monomer
production declined during the relevant
period.
New information provided by the
subject company revealed that company
imports of acrylic monomer increased
after the company shifted acrylic
monomer production to China in 2004.
The investigation also revealed that
all criteria have been met in regard to
alternative trade adjustment assistance.
A significant number or proportion of
the worker group are age fifty years or
over and workers possess skills that are
not easily transferable. Competitive
conditions within the industry are
adverse.
Conclusion
After careful review of the additional
facts obtained on reconsideration, I
conclude that a shift of production to
China followed by increased imports of
acrylic monomers contributed
importantly to worker separations at the
subject firm.
In accordance with the provisions of
the Act, I make the following
certification:
All workers of BASF Corporation, Freeport,
Texas, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after
August 30, 2003, through two years from the
date of this 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.

January 2005.

CA; Notice of Negative Determination
on Reconsideration
Lenox, Inc., Oxford, NC; Notice of
Revised Determination on
Reconsideration
On December 30, 2004, the
Department issued an Affirmative
Determination Regarding Application
for Reconsideration for the workers and
former workers of the subject firm. The
Department’s Notice was published in
the Federal Register on January 21,
2005 (70 FR 3226).
The petition for the workers of CDI
Professional Services, workers at
General Dynamics Land Systems,
California Technical Center, Goleta,
California was terminated because the
petitioning workers were covered by an
earlier denial (TA–W–55,658) and no
new information or change in
circumstances was evident to warrant a
reversal of the previous determination.
The petitioner contends that the
Department erred in its determination
and alleges that the workers support
Saudi Arabia National Guard (SANG)
turret production which shifted from
Goleta, California to London, Canada.
A company official was contacted for
clarification in regard to the nature of
the work performed by the subject
worker group. The official stated that
the subject workers were engaged in the
engineering, designing and repair of
SANG turrets. SANG turrets are
produced in Australia and then sent to
Canada to be attached to the appropriate
vehicle. The official further clarified
that work related to the SANG turrets

By letter dated December 9, 2004, a
company official requested
administrative reconsideration
regarding the Department’s Negative
Determination Regarding Eligibility to
Apply for Worker Adjustment
Assistance applicable to the workers of
the subject firm.
The initial investigation resulted in a
negative determination issued on
November 9, 2004, based on the finding
that petitioning workers did not
produce an article within the relevant
time period. The denial notice was
published in the Federal Register on
December 9, 2004 (69 FR 71428).
To support the request for
reconsideration, the company official
supplied additional information. Upon
further review, it was revealed that the
petitioning workers were members of
the workforce that was certified eligible
for TAA benefits, whose certification
expired on October 11, 2004. The
investigation revealed that petitioning
workers remained employed at the
subject facility after the stoppage of the
production and beyond the date of the
TAA certification for the purpose of
completion of the transfer of the
inventory and removal of the remaining
equipment from the subject facility.
Conclusion
After careful review of the additional
facts obtained on reconsideration, I
conclude that increased imports of
