South Indiana Lumber Company, Inc., Liberty, KY; Notice of Affirmative Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration
By application dated July 26, 2007, the petitioner requested administrative reconsideration of the Department of Labor's Notice of Negative Determination Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance, applicable to workers and former workers of the subject firm. The determination was signed on June 25, 2007 and published in the Federal Register on July 19, 2007 (72 FR 39644).
The initial investigation resulted in a negative determination based on the finding that imports of furniture blanks, stair balusters, and handle blanks did not contribute importantly to worker separations at the subject firm and no shift of production to a foreign source occurred.
In the request for reconsideration, the petitioner provided additional information regarding the subject firm's customers.
The Department has reviewed the workers' request for reconsideration and the existing record, and has determined that an administrative review is appropriate. Therefore, 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 Department of Labor's prior decision. The application is, therefore, granted.
Signed in Washington, DC, this 3rd day of August, 2007.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
