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:

Kensington Windows, Inc., a
Subsidiary of Jancor Companies, Inc.,
Vandergrift, PA; Notice of Negative
Determination Regarding Application
for Reconsideration
By application dated February 27,
2009, the International Union of
Electronic, Electrical, Salaried, Machine
and Furniture Workers (IUE), Local
188643 requested administrative
reconsideration of the Department’s
negative determination regarding
eligibility for workers and former
workers of Kensington Windows, Inc., a
subsidiary of Jancor Companies, Inc.,
Vandergrift, Pennsylvania (subject firm)
to apply for Trade Adjustment
Assistance (TAA) and Alternative Trade
Adjustment Assistance (ATAA). The
Department’s Notice of Affirmative
Determination Regarding Application
for Reconsideration was signed on
March 12, 2009, and published in the
Federal Register on March 23, 2009 (74
FR 12151).
The initial determination was based
on the Department’s findings that
imports of vinyl replacement windows
and doors did not contribute
importantly to worker separations at the
subject firm and that no shift of
production to a foreign country
occurred.
In the request for reconsideration, the
petitioner alleges that the workers of the
subject firm were negatively impacted
by foreign imports and requested the
Department of Labor conduct an in
depth analysis of the customer surveys.
VerDate Nov<24>2008

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.
During the reconsideration
investigation, the Department
conducted a more detailed survey of
additional customers regarding their
purchases of vinyl replacement
windows and doors (including like or
directly competitive articles) during
2006, 2007, January through November
2007 and January through November
2008. Based on the information
provided by the major declining
customers, the Department determined
that none of the customers imported
vinyl replacement windows and doors
while decreasing their purchases from
the subject firm during the relevant
period.
Based on the information above, the
Department determines that the group
eligibility requirements under Section
222(a) of the Trade Act of 1974, as
amended, were not met.
In order for the Department to issue
a certification of eligibility to apply for
ATAA, the subject worker group must
be certified eligible to apply for TAA.
Since the subject workers are denied

worker adjustment assistance for
workers and former workers of

of Jancor Companies, Inc., Vandergrift,
Pennsylvania.
