Notice of Petitions by Firms for Determination of Eligibility To Apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance

AGENCY:

Economic Development Administration, Department of Commerce.

ACTION:

Notice and Opportunity for Public Comment.

Pursuant to Section 251 of the Trade Act 1974, as amended (19 U.S.C. 2341 et seq. ), the Economic Development Administration (EDA) has received petitions for certification of eligibility to apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance from the firms listed below. Accordingly, EDA has initiated investigations to determine whether increased imports into the United States of articles like or directly competitive with those produced by each of these firms contributed importantly to the total or partial separation of the firm's workers, or threat thereof, and to a decrease in sales or production of each petitioning firm.

Lester Electrical of Nebraska, Inc. 625 West A Street, Lincoln, NE 68522 12/13/2016 The firm manufactures battery chargers and other electrical power conversion/storage products for industrial and commercial vehicle applications.
Current River Die Sinking, Inc. 100 E. Loyal Hood, Industrial Park, Doniphan, MO, 63935 12/14/2016 The firm manufactures tool and die made of metal primarily for the forging industry.

A written request for a hearing must be submitted to the Trade Adjustment Assistance for Firms Division, Room 71030, Economic Development Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, Washington, DC 20230, no later than ten (10) calendar days following publication of this notice.
