Notice of Termination of Investigation

Pursuant to Title V of the North

American Free Trade Agreement

Implementation Act (Pub. L. 103–182)

concerning transitional adjustment

assistance, hereinafter called (NAFTA–

TAA), and in accordance with Section

250(a), Subchapter D, Chapter 2, Title II,

of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended

(19 U.S.C. 2273), an investigation was

initiated on August 18, 1997 in response

to a petition filed on behalf of workers

at Milaca Mills, Incorporated, Milaca,

MN.

This case is being terminated because

the workers were separated from the

subject firm more than one year prior to

the date of the petition. The NAFTA

Implementation Act specifies that no

certification may apply to any worker

whose last separation occurred more

than one year before the date of the

petition. Consequently further

investigation in this case would serve

no purpose, and the investigation has

been terminated.
