Robert Bosch Fuel Systems Kentwood, MI; Notice of Termination of Investigation, 5894 [E6-1498]

Download as PDF 5894 Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 23 / Friday, February 3, 2006 / Notices production to a foreign country during 2003, 2004 or the period of January through November 2005. The investigation also revealed that subject firm sales of electronic imprint machines increased from 2003 to 2004 and again during the period of January through November 2005 over the corresponding period in 2004. The investigation further revealed that employment declines at the subject firm resulted from the introduction of a like and directly competitive product line requiring less time to manufacture and less labor. In addition, in accordance with section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974 (26 U.S.C. 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 worker group must be certified eligible to apply for trade adjustment assistance (TAA). Since the workers are denied eligibility to apply for TAA, the workers cannot be certified eligible for ATAA. Conclusion After careful review of the facts obtained, I determine that all workers of Paxar Americas, Inc., Thomas Avenue Plant, a subsidiary of Paxar Corporation, Systems Division, including on-site leased workers of Adecco, Sayre, Pennsylvania are denied eligibility to apply for adjustment assistance under section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, and alternative trade adjustment assistance under section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974.
