Revised Determination on
Reconsideration of Alternative Trade
Adjustment Assistance
On August 21, 2008, the Department
of Labor (Department) received a request
for administrative reconsideration of the
Department’s negative determination
regarding eligibility to apply for
Alternative Trade Adjustment
Assistance (ATAA) applicable to
workers and former workers of the
subject firm.
On July 18, 2008, the Department
issued a certification regarding the
subject workers’ eligibility to apply for
Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) and
a negative determination regarding their
eligibility to apply for ATAA. The
Department’s Notice of determination
was published in the Federal Register
on July 30, 2008 (73 FR 44283). The
ATAA investigation determined that,
although the workers possess skills that
are not easily transferrable and a
significant number of workers in the
workers’ firm are 50 years of age or
older, conditions within the chemical
industry are not adverse.
A Notice of Affirmative Determination
Regarding Application for
Reconsideration, applicable to workers
and former workers of the subject firm,
was issued on August 26, 2008, and will
soon be published in the Federal
Register.
During the reconsideration

employment related to the chemical
industry in the state of West Virginia
and in the county in which the subject
firm resides has declined in the relevant
time period and that the employment in
the chemical industry is projected to
decrease in the local (state and county)
economies.
