Hartz & Company, HL Hartz & Sons,
New York, NY; Notice of Revised
Determination on Reopening
On May 14, 2007, the Department, on
its own motion, reopened its
investigation for the former workers of
the subject firm.
The initial investigation resulted in a
negative determination issued on
December 1, 2006 because the workers
provided a service that was not in
support of the firm’s production of
apparel. Since the workers were denied
eligibility to apply for trade adjustment
assistance (TAA) they were also denied
eligibility to apply for alternative trade
adjustment assistance (ATAA) for older
workers.
The Department has determined that
the information provided by a former
employee of the firm shows that the
duties performed by workers of Hartz &
Company in New York, New York,
including design and marketing,
supported the production of men’s and
PO 00000
Frm 00060
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

women’s suits and bottoms at a Hartz &
Company facility located domestically.
The production workers were certified
eligible to apply for adjustment
assistance based on increased aggregate
U.S. imports of men’s and women’s
suits and bottoms.
All workers of Hartz & Company, New
York, New York, were separated when
the production facility closed in October
2006.
In order for the Department to issue
a certification of eligibility to apply for
alternative trade adjustment assistance
ATAA, the group eligibility
requirements of Section 246 of the
Trade Act must be met. The Department
has determined in this case 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 in the apparel
industry are adverse.
Conclusion
After careful consideration of the new
facts obtained on reopening, it is
concluded that increased imports of
articles like or directly competitive with
men’s and women’s suits and bottoms
produced by Hartz & Company,
contributed importantly to the total or
partial separation of workers and to the
decline in sales or production sales at
that firm or subdivision.
In accordance with the provisions of
the Trade Act of 1974, I make the
following revised determination:
All workers of Hartz & Company, HL Hartz
& Sons, New York, New York, who became
totally or partially separated from
employment on or after November 6, 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, as amended, and are
also eligible to apply for alternative trade
adjustment assistance under Section 246 of
the Trade Act of 1974, as amended.
Signed in Washington, DC, this 16th day of
May 2007.
