VerDate Nov<24>2008
The initial investigation resulted in a
negative determination based on the
finding that imports of copper tubing
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 imports of copper
tubing and alleged that the customers
might have increased imports of copper
tubing in the relevant period.
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.
Jkt 217001
By application dated May 26, 2009,
petitioners requested administrative
reconsideration of the Department’s
negative determination regarding
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 denial
notice was signed on April 29, 2009 and
published in the Federal Register on
May 18, 2009 (74 FR 23214).
The negative determination was based
on the Department’s findings that
imports of windows did not contribute
importantly to worker separations at the
subject facility and there was no shift of
production to a foreign country. The
‘‘contributed importantly’’ test is
generally demonstrated through a
PO 00000
Frm 00078

survey of the workers’ firm’s declining
domestic customers. The survey of the
major declining customers revealed no
increasing imports of windows in 2008
when compared with 2007. The subject
firm did not import windows during the
relevant period.
The petitioner alleged that Weather
Shield has experienced declines in sales
on the corporate-wide scale throughout
the United States.
The petition was filed specifically for
the workers of the Weather Shield
Manufacturing, Inc., Corporate Office in
Milford, Wisconsin. The Department
determined that workers of the subject
firm are engaged in support functions
such as administrative, human
resources, accounting, sales, and
marketing operations. It was also
revealed that the workers of the subject
firm support production of windows at
various Weather Shield Manufacturing
facilities. The Department has
conducted investigation to determine
there were shifts in production of
windows from the production facilities
to foreign countries, or whether imports
of windows contributed importantly to
worker separations. The investigation
revealed that none of the production
facilities which the workers of the
subject firm support are import
impacted and there was no shift in
production from these facilities to a
foreign country.
A careful review of previouslysubmitted material shows that one of
the facilities supported by workers of
the Weather Shield Manufacturing, Inc.,
Corporate Office in Milford, Wisconsin,
may have produced articles in addition
to windows. Therefore, the Department
will conduct further investigation to
determine if the workers meet the
eligibility requirements of the Trade Act
of 1974, as amended.
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.
Signed at Washington, DC, this 2nd day of
June 2009.
