12082 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 39 / Tuesday, February 28, 2012 / Notices 

Catawba, North Carolina. The workers 

are engaged in activities related to the 

production of coaxial cable and coax 

products for the cable television 

industry. The notice was published in 

the Federal Register on October 26, 

2011 (76 FR 66329). 

At the request of the State agency, the 

Department reviewed the certification 

for workers of the subject firm. New 

information shows that workers from 

Cable Transport, Inc. were employed 

on-site at the Catawba, North Carolina 

location of CommScope, Inc., Catawba 

Facility, a subsidiary of the Carlyle 

Group. The Department has determined 

that these workers were sufficiently 

under the control of CommScope, Inc., 

Catawba Facility, a subsidiary of the 

Carlyle Group to be considered leased 

workers. 

The intent of the Department’s 

certification is to include all workers of 

the subject firm adversely affected by 

increased company imports of coaxial 

cable and coax products for the cable 

television industry. 

Based on these findings, the 

Department is amending this 

certification to include workers from 

Cable Transport, Inc. working on-site at 

the Catawba, North Carolina location of 

the subject firm. 

The amended notice applicable to 

TA–W–80,307 is hereby issued as 

follows: 

All workers of CommScope, Inc., Catawba 

Facility, a subsidiary of the Carlyle Group, 

including on-site leased workers from 

Staffmasters, including on-site workers from 

Cable Transport, Inc., Catawba, North 

Carolina (TA–W–80,307) and CommScope., 

Conover Facility, a subsidiary of the Carlyle 

Group, including remote workers reporting to 

Conover, North Carolina, including on-site 

leased workers from Staffmasters, Conover, 

North Carolina (TA–W–80,307A), who 

became totally or partially separated from 

employment on or after July 20, 2010, 

through October 13, 2013, 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. 

Signed at Washington, DC, this 16th day of 

February 2012.

Determinations Terminating 

Investigations of Petitions for Worker 

Adjustment Assistance 

After notice of the petitions was 

published in the Federal Register and 

on the Department’s Web site, as 

required by Section 221 of the Act (19 

U.S.C. 2271), the Department initiated 

investigations of these petitions. 

The following determinations 

terminating investigations were issued 

because the petitioner has requested 

that the petition be withdrawn.

81,227 ......... Dell Financial Services (DFS) .............................................................................. Austin, TX. 

81,257 ......... World of Flowers, Inc ........................................................................................... Oxford, AL. 

The following determinations 

terminating investigations were issued 

because the Department issued a 

negative determination on petitions 

related to the relevant investigation 

period applicable to the same worker 

group. The duplicative petitions did not 

present new information or a change in 

circumstances that would result in a 

reversal of the Department’s previous 

negative determination, and therefore, 

further investigation would duplicate 

efforts and serve no purpose.
