Litton Industrial Automation Systems,

Inc., New Britain Machine, New Britain,

CT, and Operating in the Following

State, TA–W–24,446A Texas; Amended

Certification Regarding Eligibility To

Apply for Worker Adjustment

Assistance

In accordance with Section 223 of the

Trade Act of 1974 (19 USC 2273) the

Department of Labor issued a

Certification of Eligibility to Apply for

Worker Adjustment Assistance on July

27, 1990, applicable to all workers of the

subject firm. The certification notice

was published in the Federal Register

on August 9, 1990 (55 FR 32504).

At the request of one of the workers,

the Department reviewed the

certification for workers of the subject

firm. The findings show an installation

and sales office in Houston, Texas

which experienced a decline in demand

for its services from the subject firm.

The intent of the Department’s

certification is to include all workers
15792 Federal Register / Vol. 60, No. 58 / Monday, March 27, 1995 / Notices

who were adversely affected by

increased imports. Accordingly, the

Department is amending the

certification to include the operations in

Texas.

The amended notice applicable to

TA–W–24,446 is hereby issued as

follows:

All workers and former workers of Litton

Industrial Automation Systems, Incorporated

(New Britain Machine), New Britain,

Connecticut and operating in the state of

Texas who became totally or partially

separated from employment on or after

September 10, 1989 are eligible to apply for

adjustment assistance under Section 223 of

the Trade Act of 1974.

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

of March 1995.

Sanofi Bio Industries Wapato, WA;

Notice of Revised Determination on

Reconsideration

On December 23, 1994, the

Department issued an Affirmative

Determination Regarding Application

for Reconsideration for the former

workers of the subject firm. The notice

was published in the Federal Register

on January 4, 1995 (60 FR 481).

Investigation findings show that the

workers produced fruit juice

concentrate. All production of fruit juice

concentrate ceased in November, 1993

when all the workers were laid off.

New findings on reconsideration

show that a major customer increased

its purchases of imported fruit juice

concentrate while substantially

decreasing its purchases from Sanofi Bio

Industries in 1993.

Conclusion

After careful consideration of the new

facts obtained on reconsideration, it is

concluded that workers at Sanofi Bio

Industries in Wapato, Washington were

adversely affected by increased imports

of articles that are like or directly

competitive with the fruit juice

concentrate previously produced at

Sanofi Bio Industries in Wapato,

Washington. In accordance with the

provisions of the Act, I make the

following revised determination for

workers of Sanofi Bio Industries in

Wapato, Washington.

All workers of Sanofi Bio Industries in

Wapato, Washington, who became totally or

partially separated from employment on or

after July 20, 1993 are eligible to apply for

adjustment assistance under Section 223 of

the Trade Act of 1974.

Signed at Washington, D.C., this 17th day

of March 1995.

Scott Paper Co., Oconto Falls, WI;

Notice of Negative Determination

Regarding Application for

Reconsideration

By an application dated February 21,

1995, a group of former workers

requested administrative

reconsideration of the subject petition

for trade adjustment assistance. The

denial notice will soon be published in

the Federal Register.

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.

The findings show that the subject

plant produced paper towels.

The former workers submitted

documentation that Scott Paper is a

world-wide company and is increasing

its capacity for paper products in

Mexico and recently completed a deal to

produce paper products in China.

The Department’s denial was based

on the fact that U.S. imports of sanitary

paper products were negligible (less

than one percent of U.S. shipments) in

the last three years through 1994.

The findings show the worker

separations at Scott Paper’s Oconto Falls

facility were the result of a production

transfer to other domestic corporate

facilities to realize freight advantages

and be closer to geographic market

demand.

The Department would entertain a

new petition when there is evidence of

increased imports of paper towels.

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 16th day of

March 1995.

Accordingly, the Department is

amending the certification to properly

reflect this matter.

The amended notice applicable to

TA–W–29,169 is hereby issued as
