Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 151 / Tuesday, August 5, 2008 / Notices
dwashington3 on PRODPC61 with NOTICES
Manufacturing Division, Dallas, Texas;
TA–W–62,197; issued November 8,
2007). Because only one case was found,
the Department did not consider the
certification to be relevant to the case at
hand, much less indicative of likely
increased aggregate imports of
semiconductor wafers.
After the Department issued the
negative determination on remand on
June 6, 2008, however, the Department
received information during the
investigation of another matter
remanded to the Department for further
investigation, Former Employees of
Fairchild Semiconductor Corporation v.
United States Secretary of Labor, Court
No. 06–00215 (FEO Fairchild) that
caused the Department to reconsider the
case at hand.
During the remand investigation of
FEO Fairchild, the Department received
information that Fairchild would begin
importing semiconductor wafers in
2008. Upon receiving this information,
the Department reviewed previouslysubmitted information in other cases to
determine whether there were any
indications that other domestic
producers of semiconductor wafers did
or would be importing semiconductor
wafers in the time period consisting of
May 2007 through the present.
The information that was the basis for
the certification of Fairchild
Semiconductor International, Mountain
Top, Pennsylvania (TA–W–58,624;
Notice of Revised Determination on
Remand issued on July 22, 2008)
combined with the information obtained
from a careful review of previouslycertified cases indicates the likelihood
that there would be increased imports of
semiconductor wafers in the time period
after production shifted from Intel
Corporation, Fab 23, Colorado Springs,
Colorado to a foreign country.
In accordance with Section 246 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.
Conclusion
After careful review of the facts
obtained subsequent to the issuance of
the negative remand determination, I
determine that there was a total
separation of a significant number or
proportion of workers at the subject
VerDate Aug<31>2005

facility, and that there was a shift in
production to a foreign country
followed by likely increased imports of
articles like or directly competitive with
semiconductor wafers produced at the
subject facility. In accordance with the
provisions of the Act, I make the
following certification:
10:45 a.m.–11 a.m.
11 a.m.–12 p.m.
2:30 p.m.–3:30 p.m.
‘‘All workers of Intel Corporation, Fab 23,
Colorado Springs, Colorado, who became
totally or partially separated from
employment on or after May 30, 2006,
through two years from the issuance of this
revised determination, are eligible to apply
for Trade 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.’’

Signed at Washington, DC, this 25th day of
July 2008.

Certifying Officer, Division of Trade
Adjustment Assistance.

Notice; Applications and Amendments
to Facility Operating Licenses
Involving Proposed No Significant
Hazards Considerations and
Containing Sensitive Unclassified NonSafeguards Information or Safeguards
Information and Order Imposing
Procedures for Access to Sensitive
Unclassified Non-Safeguards
Information or Safeguards Information
I. Background
Pursuant to section 189a.(2) of the
Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended
(the Act), the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (the Commission or NRC
staff) is publishing this notice. The Act
requires the Commission publish notice
of any amendments issued, or proposed
to be issued and grants the Commission
the authority to issue and make
immediately effective any amendment
to an operating license upon a
determination by the Commission that
such amendment involves no significant
hazards consideration, notwithstanding
the pendency before the Commission of
a request for a hearing from any person.
This notice includes notices of
amendments containing sensitive
unclassified non-safeguards information
(SUNSI) or safeguards information
(SGI).
Notice of Consideration of Issuance of
Amendments to Facility Operating
Licenses, Proposed No Significant
Hazards Consideration Determination,
and Opportunity for a Hearing
The Commission has made a
proposed determination that the
following amendment requests involve
no significant hazards consideration.
Under the Commission’s regulations in
10 CFR 50.92, this means that operation
of the facility in accordance with the
proposed amendment would not (1)
Involve a significant increase in the
probability or consequences of an
accident previously evaluated; or (2)
create the possibility of a new or
different kind of accident from any
accident previously evaluated; or (3)
involve a significant reduction in a
margin of safety. The basis for this
proposed determination for each
amendment request is shown below.
The Commission is seeking public
comments on this proposed
determination. Any comments received
within 30 days after the date of
publication of this notice will be
considered in making any final
determination.
Normally, the Commission will not
issue the amendment until the
