Honeywell Aerospace, a Subsidiary of
Honeywell International, Moorestown,
New Jersey; Notice of Affirmative
Determination Regarding Application
for Reconsideration
By application dated March 12, 2015,
a company official requested
administrative reconsideration of the
negative determination regarding
workers’ eligibility to apply for
alternative trade adjustment assistance
applicable to workers and former
workers of Honeywell Aerospace, a
subsidiary of Honeywell International,
Moorestown, New Jersey. The
determination was issued on December
30, 2014. The Notice of Determination
was published in the Federal Register
on January 23, 2015 (80 FR 3656). The
Notice of Determination was mistakenly
classified in the Federal Register under
the ‘‘Affirmative Determinations for
Worker Adjustment Assistance and
Alternative Trade Adjustment
Assistance’’ header. It should have been
recorded under the ‘‘Affirmative
Determinations for Worker Adjustment
Assistance’’ and the ‘‘Negative
Determinations for Alternative Trade
Adjustment Assistance’’ sections.
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 initial investigation resulted in a
negative determination for alternative
trade adjustment assistance based on a
finding that the workers possessed skills
that were easily transferable.
The request for reconsideration
asserts that the workers possessed skills
that were not easily transferable.

Jkt 235001
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.
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.

Energizer; One Worker Reporting to
the Westlake Facility Located in
Marietta, Ohio; Amended Certification
Regarding Eligibility To Apply for
Worker Adjustment Assistance
In accordance with Section 223 of the
Trade Act of 1974, as amended (‘‘Act’’),
19 U.S.C. 2273, the Department of Labor
issued a Certification of Eligibility to
Apply for Worker Adjustment
Assistance on July 25, 2013, applicable
to workers from Energizer, including onsite leased workers from Adecco,
Westlake, Ohio. The Department’s

firm. The workers’ firm is engaged in
the production of batteries.
The investigation confirmed that one
worker in the Marietta, Ohio facility
reports to the Westlake, Ohio facility.
Her total or partial separation or threat
of total or partial separation is

production to a foreign country that was
the basis for the original certification.
Based on these findings, the
Department is amending this
certification to include one worker
reporting to the Westlake facility located
in Marietta, Ohio.
The amended notice applicable to
