In order to establish import impact, the Department must consider imports that are like or directly competitive with those produced at the subject firm. Imports of cigarettes cannot be considered like or directly competitive with partially stemmed tobacco produced by Philip Morris Products International, LLC, McKenney, Virginia and imports of cigarettes are not relevant in this investigation. The subject firm reported no imports of partially stemmed tobacco and there are no domestic customers who purchase partially stemmed tobacco from the subject firm and who might have increased imports of partially stemmed tobacco during the relevant time period. Conclusion After review of the application and investigative findings, I conclude that there has been no error or misinterpretation of the law or of the facts which would justify reconsideration of the Department of Labor’s prior decision. Accordingly, the application is denied. Signed in Washington, DC, this 25th day of October, 2007. Elliott S. Kushner, Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance. [FR Doc.
