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
attributable to the same shift in
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
TA–W–82,778 is hereby issued as
follows:
‘‘All workers of Energizer, including onsite leased workers from Adecco, Westlake,
Ohio (TA–W–82,778) and Energizer, One
worker reporting to the Westlake facility
located in Marietta, Ohio (TA–W–82,778A)
who became totally or partially separated
from employment on or after June 3, 2012
through July 25, 2015, and all workers in the
group threatened with total or partial
separation from employment on the date of
certification through July 25, 2015, are
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance
under Chapter 2 of Title II of the Trade Act
of 1974, as amended.’’

Determinations Terminating
Investigations of Petitions for Worker

After notice of the petitions was
published in the Federal Register and
on the Department’s Web site, as
required by Section 221 of the Act (19
U.S.C. 2271), the Department initiated
investigations of these petitions.

terminating investigations were issued
because the petitioner has requested
that the petition be withdrawn.
85,668, Pamco Machine Company,
Lewiston, Maine.
85,855, Browns Plating Service, Inc.,
Paducah, Kentucky.
The following determinations
terminating investigations were issued

workers are covered by active
certifications. Consequently, further
investigation in these cases would serve
no purpose since the petitioning group
of workers cannot be covered by more
than one certification at a time.
