Economic Development Administration


Notice of Petitions by Firms for Determination of Eligibility To 
Apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance

AGENCY: Economic Development Administration, Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Notice and opportunity for public comment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

    Pursuant to Section 251 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 2341 et 
seq.), the Economic Development Administration (EDA) has received 
petitions or certification of eligibility to apply for Trade Adjustment 
Assistance from the firms listed below. EDA has initiated separate 
investigations to determine whether increased imports into the United 
States of articles like or directly competitive with those produced by 
each firm contributed importantly to the total or partial separation of 
the firm's workers, or threat thereof, and to a decrease in sales or 
production of each petitioning firm.
