[TA–W–27,593 Cody, WY; TA–W–27,593A

Bakersfield, CA]

Marathon Oil Co.; Exploration and

Production; Amended Certification

Regarding Eligibility To Apply for

Worker Adjustment Assistance

In accordance with Section 223 of the

Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 2273) the

Department of Labor issued a

Certification of Eligibility to Apply for

Worker Adjustment Assistance on

October 21, 1992, applicable to all

workers of the subject firm. The

certification was published in the

Federal Register on November 3, 1992

(57 FR 49722).

At the request of one of the workers

and the company, the Department

reviewed the certification for workers of

the subject firm. New findings show that

worker separations occurred at

Bakersfield, California.

Accordingly, the Department is

amending the certification to properly

reflect the correct worker group.

The intent of the Department’s

certification is to include all workers of

Marathon Oil Company, Exploration

and Production in Cody, Wyoming and

in Bakersfield, California who were

adversely affected by increased imports

of crude oil.

The amended notice applicable to

TA–W–27,593 is hereby issued as

follows:

‘‘All workers of Marathon Oil Company,

Exploration and Production, Cody, Wyoming

and Bakersfield, California who became

totally or partially separated from

employment on or after July 29, 1991 are

eligible to apply for adjustment assistance

under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.’’

Signed at Washington, DC, this 14th day of

February, 1995.

McKay Drilling Co.; Aurora, CO and

Operating at Other Sites in the

Following States: TA–W–30,578A North

Dakota; TA–W–30,578B Wyoming;

Notice of Negative Determination

Regarding Application for

Reconsideration

By an application dated January 30,

1995, one of the petitioners requested

administrative reconsideration of the

Department’s notice of termination of

investigation. The notice was issued on

January 13, 1995 and published in the

Federal Register on January 27, 1995

(60 FR 5440).

Pursuant to 29 CFR 90.18(c)

reconsideration may be granted under

the following circumstances:

(1) If it appears on the basis of facts

not previously considered that the

determination complained of was

erroneous;

(2) if it appears that the determination

complained of was based on a mistake

in the determination of facts not

previously considered; or

(3) if in the opinion of the Certifying

Officer, a misinterpretation of facts or of

the law justified reconsideration of the

decision.

Investigation findings show that

McKay Drilling ceased operations in

January, 1986 when all the workers

were separated.

Your petition dated December 1, 1994

sought TAA for the McKay Drilling

workers. However, the worker

separations of more than eight years ago

are out of scope for any consideration

for trade adjustment assistance. The

statute (Trade Act of 1974) at Section

223 specifically states that no

certification shall apply to any worker

whose separation was more than one

year prior to the date of the petition.

Accordingly, the investigation was

terminated since it would serve no

purpose to continue.

Conclusion

After review of the application and

investigative findings, I conclude that

there has been no error or

misinterpretation of the law or of the

facts which would justify

reconsideration of the Department of

Labor’s prior decision. Accordingly, the

application is denied.

Signed at Washington, DC, this 14th day of

February, 1995.

Pontiac Weaving Corp.; Cumberland,

RI; Notice of Affirmative Determination

Regarding Application for

Reconsideration

On January 13, 1995, one of the

petitioners requested administrative

reconsideration of the Department of

Labor’s Notice of Negative

Determination Regarding Eligibility to

Apply for Worker Adjustment

Assistance for workers at the subject

firm. The Department’s Negative

Determination was issued on January 6,

1995 and will soon be published in the

Federal Register.

New findings show that the parent

company of Pontiac Weaving increased

its imports in 1994.

Conclusion

After careful review of the

application, I conclude that the claim is

of sufficient weight to justify

reconsideration of the Department of

Labor’s prior decision. The application

is, therefore, granted.

Signed at Washington, D.C., this 14th day

of February 1995.
