TA–W–38,986, Gilda Activewear,

Miami, Florida; Notice of Termination

of Investigation

Pursuant to section 221 of the Trade

Act of 1974, an investigation was

initiated on April 9, 2001, in response

to a worker petition which was filed on

behalf of workers at Gilda Activewear,

Miami, Florida.

The company official closed the

facility and no one is available to

provide information regarding the laid

off workers. In a telephone conversation

with a petitioner he stated that the

company official moved to another State

and closed the distribution facility also

that the workers provided warehouse

and distribution services and did not

produce an article. Consequently,

further investigation in this case would

serve no purpose, and the investigation

has been terminated.
