the Caribbean Basin Economic Recovery
Act.
The request for reconsideration
alleged that the subject workers not only
supported the production but also
produced chainsaw chains, bars, and
sprockets at the subject facility. The
subject facility ceased to operate in
March 2007.
During the reconsideration
investigation, the Department received
information confirming that the subject
facility is a warehouse and that the
subject workers produced neither
chainsaw chains, bars, nor sprockets.
New information obtained during the
investigation revealed that the subject
facility supported production at
domestic, affiliated facilities whose
production declined during 2006
(compared to 2005 levels) and during
2007 (compared to 2006 levels), and that
the subject firm’s reliance on foreignproduced chainsaw chains, bars, and
sprockets increased during the period of
decreased domestic production.
In accordance with section 246 of the
Trade Act of 1974 (26 U.S.C. 2813), as
amended, the Department herein
presents the results of its investigation
regarding certification of eligibility to
apply for ATAA.
The Department has determined in
this case that the group eligibility
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 within the
industry are adverse.
Signed at Washington, DC this 11th day of
February 2008.

Conclusion
DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
I. Notice of Final Decision
The Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA) is giving notice
of the revocation of recognition of
Applied Research Laboratories, Inc.,
(ARL) as a Nationally Recognized
Testing Laboratory (NRTL). OSHA has
taken this action following the
requirements under Subsection II.E of
Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.7
(‘‘Subsection E’’).
OSHA recognition of an NRTL
signifies that the organization has met
the legal requirements in section 1910.7
of Title 29, Code of Federal Regulations
(29 CFR 1910.7), OSHA’s NRTL Program
regulations. Recognition is an
acknowledgment that the organization
can perform independent safety testing
and certification of the specific products
covered within its scope of recognition
and is not a delegation or grant of
government authority. As a result of
recognition, employers may use
products in the workplace that are
properly approved by the NRTL to meet
OSHA standards that require testing and
certification.
Subsection E describes the process
that OSHA must use in revoking the
recognition of an NRTL. This subsection
sets forth three potential causes of
revocation and, in the event any cause
applies, provides the NRTL with
opportunities to correct the deficiencies
leading to the proposed revocation. It
also provides the NRTL an opportunity
to request a hearing before an
Administrative Law Judge on the
revocation action. (ARL did not request
such a hearing.)
OSHA followed the process set forth
in Subsection E and is revoking ARL’s
recognition as an NRTL. OSHA
identified deficiencies in ARL’s testing
and certification operations that were
not adequately corrected. OSHA has
determined that, as a result of these
deficiencies, ARL has failed to
substantially satisfy the requirements of
29 CFR 1910.7 and Appendix A, a cause
for revocation under OSHA’s NRTL
Program regulations. OSHA has already
notified ARL of the revocation decision,
and this decision is final. The effective
date of revocation is shown in the
DATES section, above. Consequently,
the Agency no longer accepts product
certifications done by ARL on or after
this effective date.
Docket No. OSHA–2007–0083
(formerly NRTL1–97) contains all public
mstockstill on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES
After careful review of the
information obtained in the
reconsideration investigation, I
determine that the subject workers’
separations were caused by the
decreased need of their services due to
increased imports of articles like or
directly competitive with those
produced at an affiliated domestic
facility that the workers supported.
In accordance with the provisions of
the Act, I make the following
certification:
All workers of Oregon Cutting Systems
Group, a wholly owned subsidiary of Blount,
Inc., Warehouse, Clackamas, Oregon, who
became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after June 19, 2006,
through two years from the date of this
certification, are eligible to apply for
adjustment assistance under section 223 of
the Trade Act of 1974, and are eligible to
apply for alternative trade adjustment
assistance under section 246 of the Trade Act
of 1974.
