Affirmative Determination Regarding
Application for Reconsideration
By application received on February
4, 2009, the 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 December 22, 2008. The
Notice of Determination was published
in the Federal Register on January 14,
2009 (74 FR 2139).
The initial investigation resulted in a
negative determination based on the
finding that imports of color
concentrates did not contribute
importantly to worker separations at the
subject firm and no shift in production
to a foreign source occurred.
In the request for reconsideration, the
petitioner provided additional
information regarding a shift in
production of color concentrates to
Mexico.
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.

On January 13, 2009, the Department
issued an Affirmative Determination
Regarding Application for
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 Hafner USA, Inc., New York,
New York (subject firm). The
Department’s Notice was published in
the Federal Register on January 26,
2009 (74 FR 4460).
The initial determination was based
on the Department’s findings that the
subject worker group does not support
a firm or appropriate subdivision that
produces an article domestically.
In order to apply for TAA based on
increased imports, the subject worker
group must meet the group eligibility
requirements under Section 222(a) of
the Trade Act of 1974, as amended.
Under Section 222(a)(2)(A), the
following criteria must be met:
A. A significant number or proportion of
the workers in such workers’ firm, or an
appropriate subdivision of the firm, have
become totally or partially separated, or are
threatened to become totally or partially
separated; and
B. the sales or production, or both, of such
firm or subdivision have decreased
absolutely; and
C. increased imports of articles like or
directly competitive with articles produced
by such firm or subdivision have contributed
importantly to such workers’ separation or
threat of separation and to the decline in
sales or production of such firm or
subdivision.
