Carolina Mills, Inc., Plant No. 9, Valdese, NC; Notice of 
Affirmative Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration

    By application of March 28, 2006, the subject company requested 
administrative reconsideration of the Department of Labor's Notice of 
Negative Determination Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker 
Adjustment Assistance, applicable to workers of the subject firm. The 
Department's determination was signed on February 24, 2006, and the 
Notice of determination was published in the Federal Register on March 
22, 2006 (71 FR 14550).
    The subject company filed for Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) and 
Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance (ATAA) as a secondarily 
affected company, alleging loss of dying and finishing business from 
customers who are import-impacted.
    The negative determination was based on the findings that the 
subject company did not shift commission dying and finishing of fabric 
to a foreign country or import fabric that has been dyed and finished, 
and that the subject company's customers did not increase imports of 
commission dyed and finished fabric during the relevant period. The 
Department determined that because apparel is not considered like or 
directly competitive with fabric, increased imports of apparel cannot 
be a basis for TAA certification for the subject worker group.
    The Department has carefully reviewed the request for 
reconsideration and has determined that the Department will conduct an 
investigation to determine whether the subject workers supplied 
components to a company adversely impacted by imports and whether the 
workers are eligible to apply for TAA and ATAA.

Conclusion

    After careful review of the application, I conclude that the claim 
is of sufficient weight to justify reconsideration of the Department of 
Labor's prior decision. The application is, therefore, granted.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 21st day of April 2006.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
