Investigations Regarding Certifications
of Eligibility To Apply for Worker
Adjustment Assistance and Alternative
Trade Adjustment Assistance
Household Utilities, Inc., Kiel, WI;
Notice of Affirmative Determination
Regarding Application for
Reconsideration
By application dated April 7, 2008, a
petitioner requested administrative
reconsideration of the negative
determination regarding workers’
eligibility to apply for Trade Adjustment
Assistance (TAA) and Alternative Trade
Adjustment Assistance (ATAA)
applicable to workers and former
workers of the subject firm. The
determination was issued on March 5,
2008. The Notice of determination was
published in the Federal Register on
March 21, 2008 (73 FR 15218).
The determination was based on the
Department’s findings that sales and
production of industrial parts, medical
carts and medical cabinets increased in
2007 as compared to 2006 and no shift
in production to a foreign source
occurred.
The request for reconsideration
alleges that sales and production
decreased in January, 2008 and
customers of the subject firm shifted
production abroad.
The Department has carefully
reviewed the request for reconsideration
and will investigate the period of time
as defined by the petitioner which is
under the relevant period of the
investigation.
Conclusion
After careful review of the
application, I conclude that the claim is
of sufficient weight to justify
reconsideration of the U.S. Department
of Labor’s prior decision. The
application is, therefore, granted.
Dated: April 16, 2008.
Joseph S. Piacentini,
Director, Office of Policy and Research,
Employee Benefits Security Administration.

In accordance with Section 223 of the
Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 2273), and
Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974 (26
U.S.C. 2813), as amended, the

Alternative Trade Adjustment
Assistance on November 21, 2007,
applicable to workers of American Axle
& Manufacturing, Buffalo Gear and Axle
Facility, Buffalo, New York. The notice
was published in the Federal Register
on December 10, 2007 (72 FR 69710).
At the request of the State agency, the
Department reviewed the certification
for workers of the subject firm. The
workers are engaged in the production
of rear axle and steering linkage
assemblies.
New information shows that leased
workers of Henkel Corporation were
employed on-site at the Buffalo, New
York location of American Axle &
Manufacturing, Buffalo Gear and Axle
Facility. The Department has
determined that these workers were
sufficiently under the control of the
subject firm to be considered leased
workers.
Based on these findings, the
Department is amending this
certification to include leased workers
