The initial investigation resulted in a negative determination signed on February 9, 2006 was based on the finding that imports of recycled paperboard for the book, binding and game industries did not contribute importantly to worker separations at the subject plant and no shift of production to a foreign source occurred. The denial notice was published in the Federal Register on March 2, 2006 (71 FR 10716). In the request for reconsideration, the petitioner provided additional information regarding the subject firm’s customers and requested an investigation relating to secondary impact concerning the subject firm as an upstream supplier to the book, binding and game industries. A review of the new facts determined that the workers of the subject firm may be eligible for TAA on the basis of a secondary upstream supplier impact. The Department conducted an investigation of subject firm workers on the basis of secondary impact, it was revealed that Natick Paperboard Corporation, Paperboard Mill Division, Natick, Massachusetts supplied paperboard that was used in the production of board games and paper based office supply products, and a loss of business with domestic manufacturers (whose workers were certified eligible to apply for adjustment assistance) contributed importantly to the workers separation or threat of separation.

Hayes Lemmerz International; Huntington, IN; 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 U.S.C. 
2273), as amended, the Department of Labor herein presents the results 
of its investigation regarding certification of eligibility to apply

(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 February 21, 2006 in response to 
a petition filed by a company official on behalf of workers of Hayes

Conclusion

    After careful review of the facts obtained in the investigation, I 
determine that increased imports of cast aluminum wheels, like or 
directly competitive with those produced by Hayes Lemmerz

production at that firm or subdivision. In accordance with the 
provisions of the Act, I make the following certification:

    ``All workers of Hayes Lemmerz International, Huntington,
