Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 78 / Tuesday April 24, 2007 / Notices 20367 

of the law justified reconsideration of 

the decision. 

The TAA petition, filed on behalf of 

workers at Camaco, LLC, Marianna 

Division, Marianna, Arkansas engaged 

in production of automotive parts, such 

as metal seat frames, brackets and 

reinforcement was denied because the 

‘‘contributed importantly’’ group 

eligibility requirement of Section 222 of 

the Trade Act of 1974 was not met. The 

‘‘contributed importantly’’ test is 

generally demonstrated through a 

survey of the workers’ firm’s customers. 

The survey revealed no imports of 

automotive parts, such as metal seat 

frames, brackets and reinforcement in 

2005, 2006 and January of 2007 when 

compared with January of 2006. The 

subject firm did not import automotive 

parts, such as metal seat frames, 

brackets and reinforcement in the 

relevant period nor did it shift 

production to a foreign country. 

In the request for reconsideration, the 

petitioner stated that the subject firm 

made parts for a company which shifted 

production to Mexico. As a result of this 

shift, the subject firm experienced 

declines in sales. Therefore, workers of 

the subject firm should be eligible for 

TAA and ATAA. 

A company official was contacted to 

verify the business relationship between 

the subject firm and the alleged 

company. The company official stated 

that the company mentioned in the 

request for reconsideration was not the 

subject firm’s customer and that the 

subject firm did not sell parts directly to 

this firm during the relevant time 

period. Because the alleged company 

was not the subject firm’s customer 

during the relevant time period, any 

information regarding business 

activities of this company is not relevant 

to this investigation. 

The request for reconsideration also 

states that ‘‘some of the equipment that 

was utilized here at CAMACO-Marianna 

is being sent to India to be used at a 

manufacturing facility there for 

production of automotive parts.’’

Further contact with the company 

official confirmed that CAMACO, LLC, 

Marianna Division, Marianna, Arkansas 

is planning to shift a portion of its 

manufacturing equipment from 

Marianna, Arkansas to India. The 

company official further indicated that 

no production has been moved from the 

Marianna facility to India as of April 12, 

2007, and no time line was established 

to when this may occur. 

Should the shift to India occur, the 

petitioner is encouraged to file a new 

petition on behalf of workers at the 

CAMACO, LLC, Marianna Division, 

Marianna, Arkansas, thereby creating a 

relevant period of investigation that 

would include changing conditions. 

The petitioner further refers to the 

TAA certifications issued to various 

businesses and industries located in 

Marianna, Arkansas. The petitioner 

alleges that because the subject firm has 

been the largest employer in Marianna, 

Arkansas and hence other companies in 

the area were certified eligible for TAA, 

workers of the subject firm should also 

be eligible. 

A review of other businesses is not 

relevant to an investigation concerning 

import impact on workers applying for 

trade adjustment assistance. As noted 

above, ‘‘contributed importantly’’ test is 

generally demonstrated through a 

survey of customers of the workers’ firm 

to examine the direct impact on a 

specific firm. No increased imports were 

evidenced during the survey of subject 

firm’s customers and the subject firm 

did not shift production to a foreign 

country. 

Conclusion 

After review of the application and 

investigative findings, I conclude that 

there has been no error or 

misinterpretation of the law or of the 

facts which would justify 

reconsideration of the Department of 

Labor’s prior decision. Accordingly, the 

application is denied.

April, 2007.

Regarding Eligibility To Apply for 

Worker Adjustment Assistance and 

Alternative Trade Adjustment 

Assistance 

In accordance with Section 223 of the 

Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 2273), and 

Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974 (26 

U.S.C. 2813), as amended, the 

Department of Labor issued a 

Certification of Eligibility to Apply for 

Worker Adjustment Assistance and 

Alternative Trade Adjustment 

Assistance on February 16, 2007, 

applicable to workers of Hitachi 

Electronic Devices (USA), Inc., 

including on-site leased workers of 

Action Staffing, Greenville, South 

Carolina. The notice was published in 

the Federal Register on February 27, 

2007 (72 FR 8795). 

At the request of the State agency, the 

Department reviewed the certification 

for workers of the subject firm. The 

workers were engaged in the production 

of projection tubes for televisions. 

New information provided by the 

subject firm, shows that American 

Services is the parent company of the 

leasing firm, Action Staffing. Leased 

workers separated from employment at 

the subject firm had their wages 

reported under the unemployment 

insurance (UI) tax account for American 

Services. 

Accordingly, the Department is 

amending the certification to properly 

reflect this matter. 

The intent of the Department’s 

certification is to include all workers of 

Hitachi Electronic Devices (USA), Inc. 

who were adversely affected by 

increased imports. 

The amended notice applicable to 

TA–W–60,556 is hereby issued as 

follows: 

All workers of Hitachi Electronic Devices 

(USA), Inc., including on-site leased workers 

from Action Staffing, American Services, 

Greenville, South Carolina, who became 

totally or partially separated from 

employment on or after November 25, 2006, 

through February 16, 2009, are eligible to 

apply for 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.

Notice of Determinations Regarding 

Eligibility To Apply for Worker 

Adjustment Assistance and Alternative 

Trade Adjustment Assistance 

In accordance with Section 223 of the 

Trade Act of 1974, as amended (19 

U.S.C. 2273) the Department of Labor 

herein presents summaries of 

determinations regarding eligibility to 

apply for trade adjustment assistance for 

workers (TA–W) number and alternative 

trade adjustment assistance (ATAA) by 

(TA–W) number issued during the 

period of April 2 through April 6, 2007. 

In order for an affirmative 

determination to be made for workers of 

a primary firm and a certification issued

B. The sales or production, or both, of 

such firm or subdivision have decreased 

absolutely; and
