Dismissal of Application for

Pursuant to 29 CFR 90.18(C) an
application for administrative
reconsideration was filed with the
Director of the Division of Trade
Adjustment Assistance for workers at
Buckingham Galleries, d/b/a Hitchcock
Fine Home Furnishings, Riverton,
Connecticut. The application did not
contain new information supporting a
conclusion that the determination was
erroneous, and also did not provide a
justification for reconsideration of the
determination that was based on either
mistaken facts or a misinterpretation of
facts or of the law. Therefore, dismissal
of the application was issued.

Saint-Gobain Advanced Ceramics
Microelectronics Division, Sanborn,
NY; Saint-Gobain Advanced Ceramics
Microelectronics Division, East
Granby, CT; Determinations 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 for worker
adjustment assistance.
In order to make an affirmative
determination and issue a certification
of eligibility to apply for Trade
Adjustment Assistance, the group
eligibility requirements in either
paragraph (a)(2)(A) or (a)(2)(B) of section
222 of the Trade Act must be met. It is
determined in the case of Saint-Gobain
Advanced Ceramics, Microelectronics
Division, Sanborn, New York that the
requirements of (a)(2)(A) of section 222
have been met.
The investigation was initiated on
April 20, 2006 in response to a petition
filed by a company official on behalf of
workers of Saint-Gobain Advanced
Ceramics, Microelectronics Division,
Sanborn, New York (TA–W–59,247) and
Saint-Gobain Advanced Ceramics,
Microelectronics Division, East Granby,
Connecticut (TA–W–59,247A). The
workers at the Sanborn facility produce
aluminum nitride substrates, while the
workers at the East Granby facility
produce silicon-nitrate bearings.
With regard to the Sanborn, New York
facility, the investigation revealed that
sales, production and employment at
the facility all declined absolutely upon
its shutdown, which occurred on
February 28, 2006.
The Department of Labor surveyed the
subject facility’s primary customers
regarding purchases of aluminum
nitride substrates in 2004, 2005 and
during the period of January through
March of 2006. The survey revealed that
from 2004 to 2005 when the subject fir’s
sales declined, respondents became
increasingly reliant on imports of
aluminum nitride substrates. Customer
imports also were sustained with the
closure of the plant in 2006.
With regard to the East Granby,
Connecticut location, the petitioner has
requested that the petition be

22JNN1
35954
Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 120 / Thursday, June 22, 2006 / Notices
withdrawn. Consequently, the
investigation has been terminated.
In addition, in accordance with
section 246 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 group eligibility
requirements of section 246 of the Trade
Act must be met. The Department has
determined in the case of the Sanborn,
New York facility that the requirements
of section 246 have been met.
A significant number of workers at the
firm are age 50 or over and possess
skills that are not easily transferable.
Competitive conditions within the
industry are adverse.
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 of the East Granby, Connecticut
facility are denied eligibility to apply for
TAA, the workers cannot be certified
eligible for ATAA.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts
obtained in the investigation, I
determine that increases of imports of
articles like or directly competitive with
aluminum nitride substrates produced
at Saint-Gobain Advanced Ceramics,
Microelectronics Division, Sanborn,
New York contributed importantly to
the total or partial separation of workers
and to the decline in sales or production
at that firm or subdivision. In
accordance with the provisions of the
Act, I make the following certification:
Division, East Granby, Connecticut has
been withdrawn. Consequently, that
investigation has been terminated.

June 2006.

West Point Stevens, Drakes Branch,

Investigation
Pursuant to section 221 of the Trade
Act of 1974, an investigation was
initiated on May 24, 2006, in response
to a petition filed on behalf of workers
at West Point Stevens, Drakes Branch,
Virginia.
This petitioning group of workers is
covered by an earlier petition (TA–W–
59,408) filed on May 16, 2006 that is the

Saint-Gobain Advanced Ceramics Microelectronics Division,

East Granby, CT; Determinations 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
for worker adjustment assistance.
In order to make an affirmative determination and issue a
certification of eligibility to apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance,
the group eligibility requirements in either paragraph (a)(2)(A) or
(a)(2)(B) of section 222 of the Trade Act must be met. It is determined
in the case of Saint-Gobain Advanced Ceramics, Microelectronics
Division, Sanborn, New York that the requirements of (a)(2)(A) of
section 222 have been met.
The investigation was initiated on April 20, 2006 in response to a
petition filed by a company official on behalf of workers of Saint-
Gobain Advanced Ceramics, Microelectronics Division, Sanborn, New York
(TA-W-59,247) and Saint-Gobain Advanced Ceramics, Microelectronics
Division, East Granby, Connecticut (TA-W-59,247A). The workers at the
Sanborn facility produce aluminum nitride substrates, while the workers
at the East Granby facility produce silicon-nitrate bearings.
With regard to the Sanborn, New York facility, the investigation
revealed that sales, production and employment at the facility all
declined absolutely upon its shutdown, which occurred on February 28,

In addition, in accordance with section 246 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 group eligibility requirements of section 246 of
the Trade Act must be met. The Department has determined in the case of
the Sanborn, New York facility that the requirements of section 246
have been met.
A significant number of workers at the firm are age 50 or over and
possess skills that are not easily transferable. Competitive conditions
within the industry are adverse.
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 of the East
Granby, Connecticut facility are denied eligibility to apply for TAA,
the workers cannot be certified eligible for ATAA.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the investigation, I
determine that increases of imports of articles like or directly
competitive with aluminum nitride substrates produced at Saint-Gobain
Advanced Ceramics, Microelectronics Division, Sanborn, New York
contributed importantly to the total or partial separation of workers
and to the decline in sales or production at that firm or subdivision.
In accordance with the provisions of the Act, I make the following
certification:
All workers of Saint-Gobain Advanced Ceramics, Microelectronics
Division, Sanborn, New York who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after April 16, 2005 through two
years from the date of 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.
The petition for Saint-Gobain Advanced Ceramics, Microelectronics

that investigation has been terminated.
