On March 2, 2006, the Glass, Molders,
Pottery, Plastics & Allied Workers
International Union, Local 267, (Union)
filed a petition for Trade Adjustment
Assistance (TAA) and Alternative Trade
Adjustment Assistance (ATAA) with the
U.S. Department of Labor (Department)
on behalf of workers and former workers
of Alcan Global Pharmaceutical
Packaging, Inc., Plastics Americas
Division, Centralia, Illinois (subject
firm). AR 2–18.
Alcan, Inc. (Alcan) is a Canadian
company and the subject firm is part of
Alcan’s North American pharmaceutical
packaging network (‘‘Plastics Americas
Division’’). The closure of the subject
firm was announced on November 30,
2005. AR 72.
The initial investigation revealed that
the subject firm produced plastic
bottles; sales and production increased
in 2005 from 2004 levels; the subject
firm shut down on June 30, 2006; the
subject firm did not import plastic
bottles in 2004, 2005, or during January
through February 2006; and subject firm
production shifted to other domestic
Alcan facilities. AR 21, 26, 37–40, 43,
69–71.
Because subject firm sales and
production did not decline in 2005 from
2004 levels, the Department did not
consider it to be a declining company.
However, because the subject firm
closed, the Department conducted a
survey of the subject firm’s major
declining customers. The survey
PO 00000
Frm 00069
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
revealed no increased import purchases
of plastic bottles during the relevant
period. AR 65, 67, 68.
The negative determination, issued
April 11, 2006, stated that the subject
firm did not shift production abroad and
that neither the subject firm nor its
major declining customers imported
plastic bottles during the relevant
period. AR 77–80. The Department’s
notice of determination was published
in the Federal Register on April 24,
2006 (71 FR 21044–5). AR 85–87.
In its request for administrative
reconsideration, the Union alleging that
‘‘the company is sending their mold
equipment to Puerto Rico * * * has
reported losses * * * likely as a result
of competing manufacturers from
overseas.’’ AR 88.
The Department’s May 12, 2006 letter
informed the Union that the request for
reconsideration was being dismissed
because no evidence was presented that
the Department erred in its
interpretation of facts or of the law. The
dismissal letter also stated that because
Puerto Rico is a U.S. Territory, a shift
of production to Puerto Rico is not
considered to be a shift of production
abroad, for purposes of the Trade Act of
1974. AR 90–91.
The Dismissal of Application for
Reconsideration applicable to the
subject firm was issued on May 15,
2006, AR 92, and published in the
Federal Register on May 24, 2006 (71
FR 29981). AR 94. Subsequent to the
dismissal of the request for
reconsideration, SAR 46, the
Department received additional
information from the Union. SAR 2–45.
In a letter dated May 30, 2006, the
Union appealed the Department’s action
to the USCIT. Plaintiff alleged that
‘‘[t]here is word that the company is
sending their mold equipment to Puerto
Rico * * * Also, the company has
reported losses for years from the
Centralia facility, likely as a result of
competing manufacturers from
overseas.’’ SAR 1.
In order to consider the additional
information and make a redetermination
regarding Plaintiff’s eligibility to apply
for worker adjustment assistance, the
Department sought, and was granted, a
voluntary remand. SAR 47.
