[TA–W–64,452] 

Kensington Windows, Inc., a 

Subsidiary of Jancor Companies, Inc., 

Vandergrift, PA; Notice of Negative 

Determination Regarding Application 

for Reconsideration 

By application dated February 27, 

2009, the International Union of 

Electronic, Electrical, Salaried, Machine 

and Furniture Workers (IUE), Local 

188643 requested administrative 

reconsideration of the Department’s 

negative determination regarding 

eligibility for workers and former 

workers of Kensington Windows, Inc., a 

subsidiary of Jancor Companies, Inc., 

Vandergrift, Pennsylvania (subject firm) 

to apply for Trade Adjustment 

Assistance (TAA) and Alternative Trade 

Adjustment Assistance (ATAA). The 

Department’s Notice of Affirmative 

Determination Regarding Application 

for Reconsideration was signed on 

March 12, 2009, and published in the 

Federal Register on March 23, 2009 (74 

FR 12151). 

The initial determination was based 

on the Department’s findings that 

imports of vinyl replacement windows 

and doors did not contribute 

importantly to worker separations at the 

subject firm and that no shift of 

production to a foreign country 

occurred. 

In the request for reconsideration, the 

petitioner alleges that the workers of the 

subject firm were negatively impacted 

by foreign imports and requested the 

Department of Labor conduct an in 

depth analysis of the customer surveys. 

In order to apply for TAA based on 

increased imports, the subject worker 

group must meet the group eligibility 

requirements under Section 222(a) of 

the Trade Act of 1974, as amended. 

Under Section 222(a)(2)(A), the 

following criteria must be met: 

A. A significant number or proportion of 

the workers in such workers’ firm, or an 

appropriate subdivision of the firm, have 

become totally or partially separated, or are 

threatened to become totally or partially 

separated; and 

B. The sales or production, or both, of such 

firm or subdivision have decreased 

absolutely; and 

C. Increased imports of articles like or 

directly competitive with articles produced 

by such firm or subdivision have contributed 

importantly to such workers’ separation or 

threat of separation and to the decline in 

sales or production of such firm or 

subdivision. 

During the reconsideration 

investigation, the Department 

conducted a more detailed survey of 

additional customers regarding their 

purchases of vinyl replacement 

windows and doors (including like or 

directly competitive articles) during 

2006, 2007, January through November 

2007 and January through November 

2008. Based on the information 

provided by the major declining 

customers, the Department determined 

that none of the customers imported 

vinyl replacement windows and doors 

while decreasing their purchases from 

the subject firm during the relevant 

period. 

Based on the information above, the 

Department determines that the group 

eligibility requirements under Section 

222(a) of the Trade Act of 1974, as 

amended, were not met. 

In order for the Department to issue 

a certification of eligibility to apply for 

ATAA, the subject worker group must 

be certified eligible to apply for TAA. 

Since the subject workers are denied 

eligibility to apply for TAA, the workers 

cannot be certified eligible for ATAA. 

Conclusion 

After reconsideration, I affirm the 

original notice of negative 

determination of eligibility to apply for 

worker adjustment assistance for 

workers and former workers of 

Kensington Windows, Inc., a subsidiary 

of Jancor Companies, Inc., Vandergrift, 

Pennsylvania. 

Signed at Washington, DC, this 3rd day of 

April 2009.

Certifying Officer, Division of Trade 

Adjustment Assistance.
