Modine Manufacturing, Blythewood,
SC; Notice of Affirmative
Determination Regarding Application
for Reconsideration
By application postmarked October
31, 2006, a worker requested
administrative reconsideration of the
Department of Labor’s Notice of
Negative Determination Regarding
Eligibility to Apply for Worker
Adjustment Assistance, applicable to
workers and former workers of the
subject firm. The determination was
issued on October 12, 2006. On October
25, 2006, the Department’s Notice of
determination was published in the
Federal Register (71 FR 62490).
The negative determination was based
on the Department’s findings that the
subject firm did not shift production
abroad during the relevant period, that
subject firm sales increased from 2004
to 2005 while production remained
constant, and that there were no decline
in either sales or production in January
through August 2006 compared to the
same period in 2005.
In the request for reconsideration, the
worker provided additional information
regarding the subject firm’s closure (July
20, 2006 WARN letter: ‘‘It is anticipated
that the plant closing will commence on
September 15 2006 and will continue
into 2007’’).
The Department has carefully
reviewed the request for reconsideration
and has determined that the Department
will conduct further investigation.

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.

By letter dated October 18, 2006,
United Steelworkers Local 1527 AFL–
CIO requested administrative
reconsideration regarding Alternative
Trade Adjustment Assistance (ATAA)
applicable to workers of the subject
firm. The negative determination was
signed on September 7, 2006, and was
published in the Federal Register on
September 21, 2006 (71 FR 55218).
The workers of Rexnord Industries,
LLC, Industrial Chain and Conveyor
Division, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, were
certified eligible to apply for Trade
Adjustment Assistance (TAA) on
September 7, 2006.
The initial ATAA investigation
determined that the skills of the subject
worker group are easily transferable to
other positions in the local area.
In the request for reconsideration, the
petitioner provided sufficient
information confirming that the skills of
the workers at the subject firm are not
easily transferable in the local
commuting area.
Additional investigation has
determined that the workers possess
skills that are not easily transferable. A
significant number or proportion of the
worker group are age 50 years or over.
Competitive conditions within the
industry are adverse.
Conclusion
After careful review of the additional
facts obtained on reconsideration, I
conclude that the requirements of
Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974, as
amended, have been met for workers at
the subject firm.
In accordance with the provisions of
the Act, I make the following
certification:
All workers of Rexnord Industries, LLC,
Industrial Chain and Conveyor Division,
Milwaukee, Wisconsin, who became totally
or partially separated from employment on or
after July 20, 2005 through September 7,
2008, are eligible to apply for trade
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.

Notice of Negative Determination
Regarding Application for
Reconsideration
By application dated September 12,
2006 and by application dated
September 18, a company official and
United Steelworkers 12–14A, District 2,
requested administrative
reconsideration of the Department’s
negative determination regarding
eligibility to apply for Trade Adjustment
Assistance (TAA) and Alternative Trade
Adjustment Assistance (ATAA),
applicable to workers and former
workers of the subject firm. The denial
notice was signed on August 16, 2006
and published in the Federal Register
on September 6, 2006 (71 FR 52584).
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.
The petition for the workers of
Rodman Industries, Marinette,
Wisconsin was denied because criteria
(a)(2)(A)(I.B) and (a)(2)(B)(II.B) were not
met. The negative determination was
based on the findings that sales and
production of particle board by the
subject firm increased from 2004 to
2005 and from January through June of
2006 when compared with the same
period in 2005. The subject firm did not
shift production to a foreign country
during the relevant period.
The petitioner provided additional
information in the request for
reconsideration. Review of the original
investigation indicated that the subject
facility ceased its production of particle
board on August 14, 2006. Therefore,
