Tenneco, Inc.; Clevite-Pullman Division; Mila, OH; Notice of Revised Determination on Reconsideration of Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance
By letter dated April 27, 2006, a petitioner requested administrative reconsideration regarding Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance (ATAA) applicable to workers of the subject firm. The negative determination was signed on April 19, 2006, and was published in the Federal Register on May 10, 2006 (71 FR 27292).
The workers of Tenneco, Inc., Clevite-Pullman Division, Milan, Ohio were certified eligible to apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) on April 19, 2006.
The initial ATAA investigation determined that the skills of the subject worker group are easily transferable to other positions in the local area.
In the request for reconsideration, the petitioner provided new information confirming that the skills of the workers at the subject firm are not easily transferable in the local commuting area.
Additional investigation and a contact with the company official has determined that the workers possess skills that are not easily transferable. A significant number or proportion of the worker group are age fifty years or over. Competitive conditions within the industry are adverse.
Conclusion
After careful review of the additional facts obtained on reconsideration, I conclude that the requirements of Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended, have been met for workers at the subject firm.
In accordance with the provisions of the Act, I make the following certification:
All workers of Tenneco, Inc., Clevite-Pullman Division, Milan, Ohio, who became totally or partially separated from employment on or after March 20, 2005 through April 19, 2008, are eligible to apply for trade adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 and are also eligible to apply for alternative trade adjustment assistance under Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974.
Signed in Washington, DC, this 2nd day of June, 2006.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
