Falcon Plastics A/K/A Grand Venture,
Washington, PA; Notice of Negative
Determination Regarding Application
for Reconsideration
By application postmarked January 6,
2006, a company official requested
administrative reconsideration of the
Department’s negative determination
regarding eligibility to apply for Trade
Adjustment Assistance (TAA),
applicable to workers and former
workers of the subject firm. The denial
notice was signed on December 30,
2005, and published in the Federal
Register on January 17, 2006 (71 FR
2568).
Pursuant to 29 CFR 90.18(c)
reconsideration may be granted under
the following circumstances:
(1) If it appears on the basis of facts
not previously considered that the
determination complained of was
erroneous;
(2) If it appears that the determination
complained of was based on a mistake
in the determination of facts not
previously considered; or
(3) If in the opinion of the Certifying
Officer, a mis-interpretation of facts or
of the law justified reconsideration of
the decision.

Jkt 208001
The petition for the workers of Falcon
Plastics, Washington, Pennsylvania
engaged in production of blow molded
plastics was denied because the
‘‘contributed importantly’’ group
eligibility requirement of section 222 of
the Trade Act of 1974, as amended, was
not met, nor was there a shift in
production from that firm to a foreign
country. The ‘‘contributed importantly’’
test is generally demonstrated through a
survey of the workers’ firm’s customers.
The survey revealed no imports of blow
molded plastics during the relevant
period. The subject firm did not import
blow molded plastics nor did it shift
production to a foreign country during
the relevant period.
The petitioner states that the affected
workers lost their jobs as a result of the
U.S. manufacturers shifting production
of blow molded plastics to China and
Mexico. The petitioner stated that the
sales and production at the subject firm
has been negatively impacted by
increasing presence of foreign imports
on the market.
Upon further review of the previous
investigation and further contact with
the company official, the Department
conducted a full investigation to
determine whether imports of blow
molded plastics indeed impacted
production at the subject firm and
consequently caused workers
separations.
The Department conducted a new
survey of the customers requesting
information on imports of ‘‘like or
directly competitive products’’ to those
purchased from Falcon Plastics, a/k/a
Grand Venture in 2002, 2003 and
January through September of 2005. The
survey revealed that none of the
respondents reported increasing its
imports of ‘‘like or directly competitive
products’’ to blow molded plastics
purchased from the subject, while
decreasing its purchases from the
subject firm during the relevant time
period.
Moreover, the subject firm does not
import blow molded plastics and did
not shift production of blow molded
plastics abroad.
Conclusion
After review of the application and
investigative findings, I conclude that
there has been no error or
misinterpretation of the law or of the
facts which would justify
reconsideration of the Department of
Labor’s prior decision. Accordingly, the
application is denied.
