Electronic Data Systems, an HP
Company, Plano, TX; Notice of
Negative Determination Regarding
Application for Reconsideration
By application postmarked September
14, 2009, a petitioner requested
administrative reconsideration of the
Department’s negative determination
regarding eligibility to apply for Trade
Adjustment Assistance (TAA),
applicable to workers and former
workers of the subject firm. The denial
notice was signed on September 2, 2009
and will soon be published in the
Federal Register.
Pursuant to 29 CFR 90.18(c)
reconsideration may be granted under
the following circumstances:
(1) If it appears on the basis of facts
not previously considered that the
determination complained of was
erroneous;
(2) If it appears that the determination
complained of was based on a mistake
in the determination of facts not
previously considered; or
(3) If in the opinion of the Certifying
Officer, a misinterpretation of facts or of
the law justified reconsideration of the
decision.
The negative TAA determination
issued by the Department for workers of
Electronic Data Systems, an HP
Company, Plano, Texas was based on
the finding that the subject firm did not
separate or threaten to separate a
significant number or proportion of
workers as required by Section 222 of
the Trade Act of 1974.
The petitioner stated that he was
separated from the employment during
May 2009 at which time his position
was shifted to Brazil.
When assessing eligibility for TAA,
the Department determines whether
each required criterion is met. In order
for the criteria (a)(2)(A)(i) and 222(c)(1)
to be met, the Department exclusively
considers the relevant employment data
(for one year prior to the date of the
petition and any imminent layoffs) for
the facility where the petitioning worker
group was employed.
VerDate Nov<24>2008

Jkt 220001
In case at hand, the investigation
revealed that employment levels at
Electronic Data Systems, an HP
Company, Plano, Texas declined by two
during the relevant period and there
was no threat of separations. Significant
number or proportion of the workers in
a firm or appropriate subdivision means
at least three workers in a workforce of
fewer than 50 workers, five percent of
the workers in a workforce of over 50
workers, or at least 50 workers.
Therefore, criterion I of Section 222(a)
and criterion (1) of Section 222(c) of the
Act were not met.
The petitioner also alleged that there
was a shift in services provided by the
workers of the subject firm to Brazil.
The allegation of the shift in services
to Brazil would have been relevant if it
was determined that all other criteria
have been met. However, it was
revealed that there was no significant
employment decline at the subject
facility during the relevant period.
Should conditions change in the
future, the petitioner is encouraged to
file a new petition on behalf of the
worker group which will encompass an
investigative period that will include
these changing conditions.
The petitioner did not supply facts
not previously considered; nor provide
additional documentation indicating
that there was either (1) a mistake in the
determination of facts not previously
considered or (2) a misinterpretation of
facts or of the law justifying
reconsideration of the initial
determination.
After careful review of the request for
reconsideration, the Department
determines that 29 CFR 90.18(c) has not
been met.
Conclusion
After review of the application and
investigative findings, I conclude that
there has been no error or
misinterpretation of the law or of the
facts which would justify
reconsideration of the Department of
Labor’s prior decision. Accordingly, the
application is denied.
Signed in Washington, DC, this 15th day of
October 2009.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade
Adjustment Assistance.

Improving Implementation of the
Paperwork Reduction Act
AGENCY: Office of Information and
Regulatory Affairs, Office of
Management and Budget.
ACTION: Request for comments.
SUMMARY: The Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) oversees agency
information collection activities under
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA). While information collection is
critical to evidence-based decisions and
informed government operations,
unnecessary paperwork requirements
can impose serious burdens on the
public, especially small entities. The
PRA requires Federal agencies to
minimize the burden on the public
resulting from their information
collections, and to maximize the
practical utility of the information
collected. OMB is committed to working
with agencies and the public to promote
compliance with the PRA and to reduce
