(2) If it appears that the determination
complained of was based on a mistake
in the determination of facts not
previously considered; or
(3) If in the opinion of the Certifying
Officer, a misinterpretation of facts or of
the law justified reconsideration of the
decision.
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
customers, nor was there a shift in the
supply of services to a foreign country
(or foreign acquisition of such services)
by the workers’ firm.
The request for reconsideration
asserts that the subject firm continues to
E:\FR\FM\13JNN1.SGM

Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 114 / Friday, June 13, 2014 / Notices
supply from a foreign location like or
directly competitive services while
decreasing services supplied within the
United States. The request for
reconsideration included new
information in support of the
allegations.
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.
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.

Fisher and Ludlow A Nucor Company
Saegertown, Pennsylvania; Notice of
Affirmative Determination Regarding
Application for Reconsideration
By application dated May 2, 2014, a
representative of United Steelworkers,
District 10, requested administrative
reconsideration of the negative
determination regarding workers’
eligibility to apply for Alternative Trade
Adjustment Assistance (ATAA)
applicable to workers and former
workers of Fisher and Ludlow, a Nucor
Company, Saegertown, Pennsylvania.
The determination was issued on April
8, 2014 and the Department’s Notice of
determination was published in the
Federal Register on April 29, 2014 (79
FR 24018).
The group eligibility requirements for
workers of a firm under Section
246(a)(3)(A)(ii) of the Trade Act are
satisfied if the following criteria are met:
(III) The competitive conditions within the
workers’ industry (i.e., conditions within the
industry are adverse).
The negative determination for ATAA
was based on the Department’s findings
that Section 246(a)(3)(A)(ii)(II) was not
been met because the workers in the
workers’ firm possess skills that are
easily transferrable and Section
246(a)(3)(A)(ii)(III) was not been met
because conditions within the workers’
industry are not adverse.
Pursuant to 29 CFR 90.18(c)
reconsideration may be granted under
the following circumstances:
(1) If it appears on the basis of facts not
previously considered that the determination
complained of was erroneous;
(2) If it appears that the determination
complained of was based on a mistake in the
determination of facts not previously
considered; or
(3) If in the opinion of the Certifying
Officer, a misinterpretation of facts or of the
law justified reconsideration of the decision.
The request for reconsideration
asserts that the workers in the workers’
firm possess skills that are not easily
transferrable and that conditions within
the workers’ industry are adverse. The
request provides facts not previously
considered to support the assertions.
The Department of Labor 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

On April 11, 2014, the Department of
Labor issued an Affirmative
Determination Regarding Application
for Reconsideration for the workers and
former workers of Salience Insight, Inc.,
formerly known as KD Paine & Partners,

(subject firm). The Department’s Notice
of determination was published in the

Workers of a firm may be eligible for
worker adjustment assistance if they
satisfy the criteria of subsection (a) and
(b) of Section 222 of the Trade Act of
1974, as amended (the ‘‘Act’’), 19 U.S.C.
2272(a) and (b). For the Department of
Labor to issue a certification for workers
under Section 222(a) of the Act, 19
U.S.C. 2272(a), the following three
criteria must be met:
(1) The first criterion (set forth in Section
222(a)(1) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a)(1))
requires that a significant number or
proportion of the workers in such workers’
firm, or an appropriate subdivision of the
firm, have become totally or partially
separated, or are threatened to become totally
or partially separated;
(2) The second criterion (set forth in
Section 222(a)(2) of the Act, 19 U.S.C.
§ 2272(a)(2)) may be satisfied in one of two
ways:
(A) Increased Imports Path:
(i) Sales or production, or both, at the
workers’ firm must have decreased
absolutely, AND
(ii) imports of articles like or directly
competitive with articles produced by such
firm or subdivision have increased; and
(iii) the increase described in clause (ii)
contributed importantly to such workers’
separation or threat of separation and to the
decline in the sales or production of such
firm or subdivision.
(B) Shift in Production Path:
(i) There has been a shift in production by
such workers’ firm or subdivision to a foreign
country of articles like or directly
competitive with articles which are produced
by such firm or subdivision; and
(ii)(I) the country to which the workers’
firm has shifted production of the articles is
a party to a free trade agreement with the
United States;
(II) the country to which the workers’ firm
has shifted production of the articles is a
beneficiary country under the African
Growth and Opportunity Act, or the
Caribbean Basin Economic Recovery Act; or
