Pleasant, IA; Notice of Revised Determination on Reconsideration of Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance BILLING CODE 4510–FN–P The Alan White Company Corporate Office, Stamps, Arkansas; Notice of Affirmative Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration By letter dated April 2, 2007, a state official requested administrative reconsideration regarding Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance (ATAA) applicable to workers of the subject firm. The negative determination was signed on March 16, 2007, and was published in the Federal Register on March 30, 2007 (72 FR 15168). The workers of Hearth and Home Technologies, division of HNI Industries, Mt. Pleasant, Iowa were certified eligible to apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) on March 16, 2007. 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 fifty years or over. Competitive conditions within the industry are adverse. Investigations Regarding Certifications of Eligibility To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance By application dated April 5, 2007, a petitioner 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 March 28, 2007 and published in the Federal Register on April 10, 2007 (72 FR 17938). The negative determination was based on the Department’s findings that that the petitioning workers of this firm or subdivision do not produce an article within the meaning of Section 222 of the Act. The Department reviewed the request for reconsideration and has determined that the petitioner has provided additional information. Therefore, the Department will conduct further investigation to determine if the workers meet the eligibility requirements of the Trade Act of 1974. 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 12th of April, 2007. Elliott S. Kushner, Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance. [FR Doc.

In accordance with the provisions of the Act, I make the following certification: All workers of Hearth and Home Technologies, division of HNI Industries, Mt.
