Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 52 / Monday, March 17, 2008 / Notices
pwalker on PROD1PC71 with NOTICES
Chapter 11 bankruptcy (reorganization)
on September 29, 2005, and that the
case was converted to Chapter 7
bankruptcy (dissolution) on November
21, 2005.
Because there were no subject firm
sales or production since September
2005, the Department finds that there
could not have been any decline in sales
or production at the subject firm during
the relevant period. Consequently,
increased imports could not have
‘‘contributed importantly to * * * the
decline in sales or production of’’ the
subject firm. Accordingly, the subject
workers cannot be certified under
section 222(a)(2)(A).
Further, the Department finds that
because the subject firm permanently
closed in September 2005, there was not
production that could have shifted to a
foreign country. Accordingly, the
subject workers cannot be certified
under section 222(a)(2)(B).
Although the request for
reconsideration did not allege that the
subject workers were adversely affected
as secondary workers (workers of a firm
that supply component parts to a TAAcertified company or finished or
assembled for a TAA-certified
company), the Department expanded
the investigation to determine whether
they would be eligible to apply for TAA
on this basis. Such a certification, under
section 223(b)(2), must be based in the
certification of a primary firm.
Prior to the closure in September
2005, the subject firm produced a final
article (rayon staple fiber) and,
therefore, neither supplied component
parts to other companies nor finished or
assembled an article for other
companies. Even if the subject firm did
engage in such activity, the activity
occurred prior to September 2005, and,
therefore, occurred prior to the relevant
period and cannot be a basis for
certification. Accordingly, the subject
workers cannot be certified under
section 223(b)(2).
In order for the Department to issue
a certification of eligibility to apply for
Alternative Trade Adjustment
Assistance (ATAA), the subject worker
group must be certified eligible to apply
for TAA. Since the petitioning worker
group is denied eligibility to apply for
TAA, the subject workers cannot be
certified eligible for ATAA.
Conclusion
After careful reconsideration, I affirm
the original notice of negative
determination of eligibility to apply for
worker adjustment assistance for
workers and former workers of Liberty
Fibers Corporation, Lowland,
Tennessee.
