In the request for reconsideration, the petitioner provided additional information regarding the subject firm’s declining customers. The Department contacted a company official and requested an additional list of declining customers. Based on new information, the Department further conducted a survey of major declining customers regarding purchases of interior trim automotive components during 2006, 2007 and January through February 2008 over the corresponding 2007 period. The survey revealed that a major declining customer increased their imports of interior trim automotive components from 2006 to 2007 and during January through February of 2008 over the corresponding 2007 period.

In order for the Department to issue a certification of eligibility to apply for 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 within the industry are adverse. Conclusion After careful review of the additional facts obtained on reconsideration, I conclude that increased imports of articles like or directly competitive with those produced at Llink Technologies, LLC, Brown City, Michigan, contributed importantly to the declines in sales or production and to the total or partial separation of workers at the subject E:\FR\FM\11APN1.SGM 11APN1
