The amended notice applicable to
TA–W–81,500 is hereby issued as
follows:
All workers of StarTek USA, Inc.,
including on-site leased workers from
Staffmark East, LLC and Staffmark,
Jonesboro, Arkansas, who became totally or
partially separated from employment on or
after March 27, 2011, through May 17, 2014,

(3) If in the opinion of the Certifying
Officer, a mis-interpretation of facts or of the
law justified reconsideration of the decision.
The negative determination was based
on the Department’s findings that the
subject firm does not produce an article,
within the meaning of the Trade Act of
1974, as amended.
The request for reconsideration stated
that services supplied by the subject
workers shifted to a foreign country.
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. Based on these findings,
the Department determines that 29 CFR
90.18(c) has not been met.
Conclusion
After careful 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.

Ocwen Loan Servicing, LLC, a
Subsidiary of Ocwen Financial
Corporation, Including Former
Workers of GMAC Mortgage, LLC, an
Indirect Subsidiary of Residential
Capital, LLC, Waterloo, Iowa; Notice of
Revised Determination on
Reconsideration
On its own action, the Department
reviewed the determination for GMAC
Mortgage, LLC, an indirect subsidiary of
Residential Capital, LLC, now Ocwen
Loan Servicing, LLC, a subsidiary of
Ocwen Financial Corporation, Waterloo,
Iowa to clarify the worker group. Based
on additional and updated information,
worker group is clarified as Ocwen Loan
Servicing, LLC, a subsidiary of Ocwen
Financial Corporation, including former
workers of GMAC Mortgage, LLC, an
indirect subsidiary of Residential

Capital, LLC, Waterloo, Iowa (hereafter
referred to as ‘‘Ocwen Loan Servicing,
LLC’’ or ‘‘the subject firm’’). The
workers are engaged in activities related
to the supply of mortgage loan services.
The worker group excludes workers
totally or partially separated (or
threatened with such separation) from
the subject firm prior to February 15,
2013 (date of bankruptcy finalization).
Based on a careful review and
clarification of previously-submitted
information and additional information
obtained during the reconsideration
investigation, the Department
determines that Section 222(a)(1) has
been met because a significant number
or proportion of the workers in Ocwen
Loan Servicing, LLC have become
totally or partially separated, or are
threatened to become totally or partially
separated and that Section 222(a)(2)(B)
has been met because the workers’ firm
has shifted to a foreign country a
portion of the supply of services like or
directly competitive with the mortgage
loan services supplied by the subject
worker group, which contributed
importantly to worker group separations
at Ocwen Loan Servicing, LLC.
Conclusion
After careful review of previouslysubmitted facts and the additional facts
obtained during the reconsideration
investigation, I determine that workers
Ocwen Loan Servicing, LLC, a
subsidiary of Ocwen Financial
Corporation, including former workers
of GMAC Mortgage, LLC, an indirect
subsidiary of Residential Capital, LLC,
Waterloo, Iowa, who were engaged in
employment related to the supply of
mortgage loan services, meet the worker
group certification criteria under
Section 222(a) of the Act, 19 U.S.C.
2272(a). In accordance with Section 223
of the Act, 19 U.S.C. 2273, I make the
following certification:
All workers of Ocwen Loan Servicing, LLC,
a subsidiary of Ocwen Financial Corporation,
including former workers of GMAC
Mortgage, LLC, an indirect subsidiary of
Residential Capital, LLC, Waterloo, Iowa,
who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after February 15,
2013, through two years from the date of this
certification, and all workers in the group
threatened with total or partial separation
from employment on date of certification
through two years from the date of
certification, are eligible to apply for
adjustment assistance under Chapter 2 of
Title II of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Section 101(c) of the Federal Mine
Safety and Health Act of 1977 (Mine
Act) allows the mine operator or
representative of miners to file a
petition to modify the application of any
mandatory safety standard to a coal or
other mine if the Secretary of Labor
determines that:
1. An alternative method of achieving
the result of such standard exists which
will at all times guarantee no less than
the same measure of protection afforded
the miners of such mine by such
standard; or
2. That the application of such
standard to such mine will result in a
diminution of safety to the miners in
such mine.
In addition, the regulations at 30 CFR
44.10 and 44.11 establish the
requirements and procedures for filing
petitions for modification.
II. Petitions for Modification
Docket Number: M–2014–015–C.
Petitioner: Luminant Mining
Company, P.O. Box 1359, Tatum, Texas
75691.
Mine: Liberty Strip Mine, MSHA I.D.
No. 41–04964, located in Rusk County,
Texas.
Regulation Affected: 30 CFR 77.803
(Fail safe ground check circuits on highvoltage resistance grounded systems).
Modification Request: The petitioner
requests a modification of the existing
standard to permit an alternative
method of compliance when the boom/
mast is raised or lowered during
necessary repairs. The petitioner states
that:
(1) Some stages of assembly/
disassembly of draglines require special
consideration when the boom/mast is
raising/lowering into position.
(2) The boom is raised/lowered
utilizing the on-board motor generator
sets. This process is critical because
during this time, power to the machine,
as much as possible, must not be
interrupted. Power loss may result in
the boom becoming uncontrolled and
falling, and could injure workers. To
address this condition, the petitioner
proposes to use the following guidelines
to help prevent loss of power to the
machine. This procedure only addresses
raising/lowering the boom of draglines
utilizing the machine’s electrical
onboard motor generator sets. It does
not replace other mechanical
precautions or the requirements of 30
CFR 77.405(b) that are necessary to
safely secure booms/masts during
PO 00000

Fmt 4703

construction or maintenance
procedures.
(3) The operator/contractor will
develop and implement written
procedures that will:
(a) Limit the number of persons
needed on board the machine during the
boom/mast raising/lowering. Only those
persons critical to performing necessary
functions will be permitted on board the
machine.
(b) Explain the methods to be used to
prevent off-board persons from
contacting the frame cable of the
machine. The area around the machine
will be roped off or guarded.
(c) Prohibit other work activities in
close proximity to the machine during
the boom/mast operation.
(d) Establish a responsible person(s) at
the work site who is familiar with all
the requirements and is able to
communicate at all times with the
qualified person(s) at the substation.
The responsible person(s) must remain
at the work site during the boom/mast
raising/lowering.
(e) Ensure that all persons involved
with the boom/mast raising/lowering
are familiar with the safety precautions.
(4) An MSHA-qualified electrician
will complete an examination of all
electrical components that will be
energized during the boom raising/
lowering process. The examination will
be done within 2 hours prior to the
boom raising/lowering process. A record
of the examination will be made
available for review. The machine will
be deenergized to perform this
examination.
(5) After the examination has been
completed, electrical components
necessary to complete the boom raising/
lowering process will be energized to
assure they are operating properly as
determined by the MSHA-qualified
electrician.
(6) The ground fault and ground
check circuits may be disabled
provided:
(a) The internal ground conductor of
the trailing cable has been tested and is
continuous from the frame of the
dragline to the grounding resistor
located at the substation. Utilizing the
ground check circuit and disconnecting
the pilot circuit and the machine frame
and verifying the circuit breaker cannot
be closed will be an acceptable test.
Resistance measurements can also be
used to assure the ground conductor is
continuous. The grounding resistor will
be tested to assure it is properly
connected and is not open or shorted;
(b) Normal short circuit protection
will be provided at all times. The
overcurrent relay setting may be
