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

Conclusion

    After review of the application and investigative findings, I 
conclude that there has been no error or misinterpretation of the law

of Labor's prior decision. Accordingly, the application is denied.
