Download as PDF 12082 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 39 / Tuesday, February 28, 2012 / Notices Catawba, North Carolina. The workers are engaged in activities related to the production of coaxial cable and coax products for the cable television industry. The notice was published in the Federal Register on October 26, 2011 (76 FR 66329). At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the certification for workers of the subject firm. New information shows that workers from Cable Transport, Inc. were employed on-site at the Catawba, North Carolina location of CommScope, Inc., Catawba Facility, a subsidiary of the Carlyle Group. The Department has determined that these workers were sufficiently under the control of CommScope, Inc., Catawba Facility, a subsidiary of the Carlyle Group to be considered leased workers. The intent of the Department’s certification is to include all workers of the subject firm adversely affected by increased company imports of coaxial cable and coax products for the cable television industry. Based on these findings, the Department is amending this certification to include workers from Cable Transport, Inc. working on-site at the Catawba, North Carolina location of the subject firm. The amended notice applicable to TA–W–80,307 is hereby issued as follows: tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES All workers of CommScope, Inc., Catawba Facility, a subsidiary of the Carlyle Group, including on-site leased workers from Staffmasters, including on-site workers from Cable Transport, Inc., Catawba, North Carolina (TA–W–80,307) and CommScope., Conover Facility, a subsidiary of the Carlyle Group, including remote workers reporting to Conover, North Carolina, including on-site leased workers from Staffmasters, Conover, North Carolina (TA–W–80,307A), who became totally or partially separated from employment on or after July 20, 2010, through October 13, 2013, 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.

Negative Determinations for Worker Adjustment Assistance

In the following cases, the investigation revealed that the
eligibility criteria for worker adjustment assistance have not been met
for the reasons specified.
The investigation revealed that the criteria under paragraphs
(a)(2)(A)(i) (decline in sales or production, or both) and (a)(2)(B)
(shift in production or services to a foreign country) of section 222
have not been met.

The investigation revealed that the criteria under
paragraphs(a)(2)(A) (increased imports) and (a)(2)(B) (shift in
production or services to a foreign country) of section 222 have not
been met.

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 Department issued a negative determination on petitions
related to the relevant investigation period applicable to the same
worker group. The duplicative petitions did not present new information
or a change in circumstances that would result in a reversal of the
Department's previous negative determination, and therefore, further
investigation would duplicate efforts and serve no purpose.

[[Page 12085]]

I hereby certify that the aforementioned determinations were issued
during the period of February 6, 2012 through February 10, 2012. These
determinations are available on the Department's Web site tradeact/taa/
taa search form.cfm under the searchable listing of determinations or
by calling the Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance toll-free at 888-
365-6822.

Dated: February 14, 2012.

Certifying Officer, Office of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
