Regarding Application for
Reconsideration
[FR Doc. 2015–07237 Filed 3–30–15; 8:45 am]
By application dated on February 6,
2015, a state workforce official
requested administrative
reconsideration of the negative
determination regarding workers’
eligibility to apply for worker
adjustment assistance applicable to
workers and former workers of Levi
Strauss & Company, Eugene, Oregon.
The determination was issued on
January 14, 2015 and the Notice of
Determination was published in the
Federal Register on February 18, 2015
(80 FR 8692).
Pursuant to 29 CFR 90.18(c)

the following circumstances:
(1) If it appears on the basis of facts

the law justified reconsideration of the
decision.
The initial investigation resulted in a
negative determination based on the
findings that worker separations at Levi
Strauss & Co., Eugene, Oregon are not
attributable to increased imports of
articles or a shift in production of
articles to a foreign country.
The request for reconsideration
asserts that although the workers are
engaged in service-related activities, the
workers perform production forecasting
activities and order management
support of Levi Strauss’ production of
clothing and apparel. The
reconsideration application concludes
that both activities drive production and
has been shifted to a foreign country.
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
