Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 26 / Wednesday, February 8, 2012 / Notices
U.S.C. 2813), as amended, the
Department of Labor issued a
Certification of Eligibility to Apply for
Worker Adjustment Assistance and
Alternative Trade Adjustment
Assistance on December 19, 2008,
applicable to workers of PHB Die
Casting, a subsidiary of PHB, Inc.,
including on-site leased workers from
Career Concepts and Volt Services,
Fairview, Pennsylvania. The notice was
published in the Federal Register on
January 14, 2009 (74 FR 2136).
At the request of the State agency, the
Department reviewed the certification
for workers of the subject firm. The
workers are engaged in the production
of die castings.
New information shows that a worker
from Burns Industrial Group (BIG Inc)
was contracted to provide various sales
services at the Fairview, Pennsylvania
location of PHB Die Casting, a
subsidiary of PHB, Inc. The Department
has determined that this worker was
sufficiently under the control of the
subject firm to be considered a contact
worker.
Based on these findings, the
Department is amending this
certification to include a worker from
Burns Industrial Group (BIG Inc) who
was contracted by the Fairview,
Pennsylvania location of PHB Die
Casting, a subsidiary of PHB, Inc.
The amended notice applicable to
TA–W–64,292 is hereby issued as
follows:
All workers of PHB Die Casting, a
subsidiary of PHB, Inc., Fairview,
Pennsylvania, including on-site leased
workers from Career Concepts and Volt
Services, and including a contract worker
from Burns Industrial Group (BIG Inc), who
became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after October 27, 2007,
through December 19, 2010, are eligible to
apply for adjustment assistance under
Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, and are
also eligible to apply for alternative trade
adjustment assistance under Section 246 of
the Trade Act of 1974.

Determinations Terminating Investigations of Petitions for Worker
Adjustment Assistance
After notice of the petitions was published in the Federal Register
and on the Department's Web site, as required by Section 221 of the Act
(19 U.S.C. 2271), the Department initiated investigations of these
petitions.
The following determinations terminating investigations were issued
because the petitioner has requested that the petition be withdrawn.

The following determinations terminating investigations were issued
because the petitioning groups of workers are covered by active
certifications. Consequently, further investigation in these cases
would serve no purpose since the petitioning group of workers cannot be
covered by more than one certification at a time.
