Notice of Affirmative Determination
Regarding Application for
Reconsideration
Norcal Pottery Products, Macrame
Department, Richmond Distribution
Center, Richmond, California; Notice of
Affirmative Determination Regarding
Application for Reconsideration
notice published at 73 FR 3755 on
January 22, 2008.
By application dated April 10, 2008,
a company official 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 14, 2008. The Notice
of determination was published in the
Federal Register on March 26, 2008 (73
FR 16064).
The initial investigation resulted in a
negative determination based on the
finding that imports of lumber and
woodchips did not contribute
importantly to worker separations at the
subject firm and no shift of production
to a foreign source occurred.
In the request for reconsideration, the
petitioner provided additional
information regarding aggregate imports
of lumber and the impact of Canadian
imports on lumber industry in the
United States.
The Department has carefully
reviewed the request for reconsideration
and the existing record and has
determined that the Department will
conduct further investigation to
determine if the workers meet the
eligibility requirements of the Trade Act
of 1974.

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.
By applications dated April 15, 2008,
petitioners requested administrative
reconsideration of the Department of
Labor’s Notice of Negative
Determination Regarding Eligibility to
Apply for Worker Adjustment
Assistance, applicable to workers and
former workers of the subject firm. The
denial notice was signed on March 21,
2008 and published in the Federal
Register on April 24, 2008 (73 FR
22169).
The initial investigation resulted in a
negative determination based on the
finding that criteria I.A and II.A have
not been met. The investigation revealed
that the subject firm did not separate or
threaten to separate a significant
number or proportion of workers as
required by Section 222 of the Trade Act
of 1974.
In the request for reconsideration, the
petitioner provided additional
information regarding employment and
layoffs at the subject firm.
The Department has carefully
reviewed the request for reconsideration
and the existing record and has
determined that the Department will
conduct further investigation.
Conclusion
After careful review of the
application, I conclude that the claim is
of sufficient weight to justify
reconsideration of the Department of
Labor’s prior decision. The application
is, therefore, granted.
Signed in Washington, DC, this 30th day of

Richloom Home Fashions, Division of
Richloom Fabrics Corporation, Clinton,
SC; Notice of Negative Determination
on Reconsideration
On March 27, 2008, the Department
issued an Affirmative Determination
Regarding Application for
Reconsideration for the workers and
former workers of the subject firm. The
notice was published in the Federal
Register on April 24, 2008 (73 FR
22166).
The initial investigation resulted in a
negative determination based on the
finding that worker group does not
produce an article within the meaning
of section 222 for the Trade Act of 1974.
In the request for reconsideration the
petitioner stated that workers of the
Sample Department of the subject firm
produce samples of window treatments
and bed coverings and requested that
the Department conduct further
investigation of the Sample Department.
On reconsideration, the Department
contacted a company official and
requested additional information
regarding the production of samples of
window treatments and bed coverings.
The investigation revealed that workers
of the Sample Department, Richloom
Home Fashions in Clinton, South
PO 00000
Frm 00133
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
25773
Carolina manufacture samples of
window treatments and bed coverings.
However, the investigation also revealed
that only one worker was separated
from the Sample Department in 2007
and there was no threat of future
separations.
The subject company did not separate
or threaten to separate a significant
number or proportion of workers, as
required by section 222 of the Trade Act
of 1974. Significant number or
proportion of the workers in a firm or
appropriate subdivision means at least
three workers in a workforce of fewer
than 50 workers, five percent of the
workers in a workforce of over 50
workers, or at least 50 workers. As
employment levels at the subject facility
did not decline during the relevant time
period and there was no threat of
separations during the relevant period,
criterion (1) has not been met.
Conclusion
After reconsideration, I affirm the
original notice of negative
determination of eligibility to apply for
worker adjustment assistance for
workers and former workers of
Richloom Home Fashions, division of
Richloom Fabrics Corporation, Clinton,
South Carolina.
