Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 10 / Thursday, January 15, 2009 / Notices
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 December
17, 2008. The Notice of Determination
will soon be published in the Federal
Register.
The initial investigation resulted in a
negative determination based on the
finding that imports of replicated CD’s,
VHS, DVD’s, and cassette tapes 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 the customers of
the subject firm and alleged that the
customers might have increased imports
of CD’s, VHS, DVD’s, and cassette tapes.
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.

application is, therefore, granted.

workers of the subject firm. The
determination was issued on November
25, 2008. The Department’s Notice of
determination was published in the
Federal Register on December 10, 2008
(73 FR 75138). Workers at the subject
firm produce whole- and half-side
leather sides, and are not separately
identifiable by product line.
The negative determination was based
on the Department’s findings that the
subject firm did not shift production to
a foreign country and that neither the
subject firm nor its major declining
customers increased imports of articles
like or directly competitive with those
produced by the subject firm.
In the request for reconsideration, a
company official alleged that ‘‘many
shoe manufacturers, including those in
our backyard, transferred their
purchasing of tanned leather to those
facilities in Asia’’ and that ‘‘the leather
industry in the United States has all but
disappeared.’’
A careful review of previouslysubmitted material shows that, during
the relevant period, the subject firm may
have supplied component parts for
articles produced by a firm with a
currently TAA certified worker group.
The Department has carefully
reviewed the request for
reconsideration, 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.
