On June 25, 2015, the Department of
Justice lodged a proposed Joint
Stipulation to Modify Consent Decree
with the United States District Court for
the Northern District of Alabama in the
lawsuit entitled United States v.
Alabama Power Company, Civil Action
No. 2:01–cv–00152–VEH.
In this civil enforcement action under
the federal Clean Air Act (‘‘Act’’), the
United States alleged that Alabama
Power Company failed to comply with
certain requirements of the Act intended
to protect air quality at coal-fired
electric generating stations located in
Alabama. Specifically, the complaint
requested injunctive relief and civil
penalties for violations of the Clean Air
Act’s Prevention of Significant
Deterioration provisions, 42 U.S.C.
7470–92, and various Clean Air Act
implementing regulations. On April 25,
2006, the District Court entered a partial
consent decree settling some of the
claims alleged in the complaint. The
proposed Joint Stipulation to Modify
Consent Decree would modify the
partial consent decree to settle the
remaining claims in the litigation to

[TA–W–85,562]
Unimin Corporation, Gleason,
Tennessee; Notice of Affirmative
Determination Regarding Application
for Reconsideration
By application dated December 3,
2014, a worker requested administrative
reconsideration of the negative
determination regarding workers’
eligibility to apply for worker
adjustment assistance applicable to
workers and former workers of Unimin
Corporation, Gleason, Tennessee
(subject firm). The determination was
issued on November 7, 2014. The
Department’s Notice of Determination
was published in the Federal Register
on November 21, 2014 (79 FR 69535).
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 based on the
findings that the subject firm did not
increase imports or shift production
abroad.
The request for reconsideration
asserts that increased imports of articles
directly competitive with the ‘‘slurry’’
articles produced at the subject firm
contributed to worker separations and,
consequently, that the Department’s
initial investigation was too limited in
scope.
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.
