Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 185 / Friday, September 23, 2011 / Notices
Assistance (TAA) applicable to workers
and former workers of Parkdale
America, LLC, a division of Parkdale
Mills, Inc., Plant #22, Galax, Virginia
(subject firm). The determination was
issued on June 8, 2011. The
Department’s Notice of Determination
was published in the Federal Register
on June 24, 2011 (76 FR 37155).
Workers are engaged in activities related
to the production of yarn.
The negative determination was based
on the Department’s findings that the
subject firm did not shift production of
yarn to a foreign country; the subject
firm did not import yarn during the
relevant period; and increased U.S.
aggregate imports of articles like or
directly competitive with yarn produced
at the subject firm did not contribute
importantly to the subject workers’
separation because the imports coincide
with increases in sales and production
at the subject firm.
Further, the investigation revealed
that the subject firm is not a Supplier or
Downstream Producer to a firm that
employed a group of workers who
received a certification of eligibility
under Section 222(a) of the Act, 19
U.S.C. 2272(a).
The determination stated that the
workers’ separations were attributable to
a change of product line.
In the request for reconsideration, the
petitioner stated that ‘‘Parkdale #22
Galax plants only customer is in China,
the company lowered the production,
which eliminated our jobs because the
customer lowered the orders * * *.’’
The Department has carefully
reviewed the petitioner’s request for
reconsideration and the existing record,
and has determined that the Department
will conduct further investigation to
determine if the petitioning workers
meet the eligibility requirements of the
Trade Act of 1974, as amended.
Conclusion

of Labor’s prior decision. The
