Conocophillips Company, Trainer Refinery, Trainer, PA; Notice of 
Affirmative Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration

    By application dated March 26, 2012, the United Steel Workers Union 
requested administrative reconsideration of the negative determination 
regarding workers' eligibility to apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance 
(TAA) applicable to workers and former workers of ConocoPhillips 
Company, Trainer Refinery, Trainer, Pennsylvania (subject firm). The 
determination was issued on February 7, 2012. The Notice of 
determination was published in the Federal Register on February 28, 
2012 (77 FR 12084).
    The initial investigation resulted in a negative determination 
based on the findings that there was no increase in imports by the 
workers' firm or its customer, nor was there a shift in production to a 
foreign country or acquisition of production from a foreign country by 
the workers' firm. In addition, U.S. aggregate imports of like or 
directly competitive articles did not increase during the relevant 
period.
    The request for reconsideration alleges that worker separations at 
the subject firm are related to increased imports of refined petroleum 
products like or directly competitive with those produced by the 
subject firm, and that, while the initial investigation revealed that 
U.S. aggregate imports of refined petroleum products decreased during 
the relevant period, the Department did not compare domestic production 
to U.S. imports.
    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, 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 30th day of April 2012.
