Dan River, Inc., Danville Operations, 

Danville, VA; Amended Notice of 

Revised Determination on 

Reconsideration 

In accordance with Section 223 of the 

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

Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974 (26 

U.S.C. 2813), as amended, the 

Department of Labor issued a Notice of 

Revised Determination on 

Reconsideration on August 27, 2008, 

applicable to workers of Dan River, Inc., 

Danville Operations, Danville, Virginia. 

The notice was published in the Federal 

Register on September 8, 2008 (73 FR 

52070–52071). 

At the request of the State agency, the 

Department reviewed the Notice of 

Revised Determination on 

Reconsideration for workers of the 

subject firm. The workers are engaged in 

the production of package labels and 

packaging material. 

The review shows that all workers of 

Dan River, Inc., Danville, Virginia, were 

previously certified eligible to apply for 

adjustment assistance under petition 

number TA–W–57,724, which expired 

on September 13, 2007. 

Therefore, in order to avoid an 

overlap in worker group coverage, the 

Department is amending the April 14, 

2007 impact date established for TA– 

W–63,197 to read September 14, 2007. 

The amended notice applicable to 

TA–W–63,197 is hereby issued as 

follows: 

‘‘All workers of Dan River, Inc., Danville 

Operations, Danville, Virginia, who became 

totally or partially separated from 

employment on or after September 14, 2007 

through August 27, 2010, are eligible to apply 

for adjustment assistance under Section 223 

of the Trade Act of 1974, and are eligible to 

apply for alternative trade adjustment 

assistance under Section 246 of the Trade Act 

of 1974.’’

Shiloh Industries, Liverpool 

Manufacturing Division, Valley City, 

OH; Notice of Revised Determination 

on Reconsideration 

On July 25, 2008, the Department 

issued a negative determination 

regarding workers’ eligibility to apply 

for Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) 

and Alternative Trade Adjustment 

Assistance (ATAA) applicable to 

workers and former workers of Shiloh 

Industries, Liverpool Manufacturing 

Division, Valley City, Ohio (subject 

firm). The notice of determination was 

published in the Federal Register on 

August 12, 2008 (73 FR 46924). 

The petition for TAA and ATAA, 

dated April 14, 2008, was filed on 

behalf of the subject worker group by a 

representative of the International 

Union, United Automobile, Aerospace 

and Agricultural Implement Workers of 

America—United Auto Workers, Region 

2–B (Union). The subject worker group 

produces automotive stampings and 

weldments (a unit formed by welding 

together an assembly of pieces). Workers 

are not separately identifiable by 

product line. 

The negative determination stated 

that the subject firm did not import 

automotive stampings and weldments in 

2006 through March 2008, and did not 

shift production to a foreign country 

during the relevant period. The 

Department’s survey of the subject 

firm’s largest customers revealed that no 

customer which contributed 

significantly to the subject firm’s sales 

decline increased its imports during the 

relevant period. U.S. aggregate imports 

of motor vehicle metal stampings 

decreased in January through May 2008 

compared with the corresponding 2007 

period. 

The request for reconsideration 

alleges that the subject firm out-sourced 

to a foreign company the production of 

valve covers (a specific type of 

automotive stamping) and that the 

subject firm ‘‘may have lost work’’ to 

another domestic company, and that 

this domestic competitor ‘‘may be TAA 

eligible.’’ 

A careful review of previouslysubmitted information revealed that the 

Department investigated whether the 

subject firm had shifted production of 

automotive stampings or weldments to 

a foreign country or have scheduled any 

such shift, and that the subject firm did 

not and is not scheduled to shift 

production. The review also revealed 

that a major declining customer 

increased their reliance on foreignproduced automotive stampings while 

decreasing purchases from the subject 

firm. 

In accordance with Section 246 the 

Trade Act of 1974 (26 U.S.C. 2813), as 

amended, the Department herein 

presents the results of its investigation 

regarding certification of eligibility to 

apply for ATAA. The Department has 

determined in this case that the group 

eligibility requirements of Section 246 

have been met. 

A significant number of workers at the 

firm are age 50 or over and possess 

skills that are not easily transferable. 

Competitive conditions within the 

industry are adverse. 

Conclusion 

After careful review of the facts 

obtained during the reconsideration 

investigation, I determine that increases 

of imports of articles like or directly 

competitive with automotive stampings 

produced at the subject firm contributed 

importantly to the total or partial 

separation of the subject workers and to 

the decline in sales or production at that 

firm or subdivision. In accordance with 

the provisions of the Act, I make the 

following certification: 

‘‘All workers of Shiloh Industries, 

Liverpool Manufacturing Division, Valley 

City, Ohio, who became totally or partially 

separated from employment on or after April 

14, 2007 through two years from the date of 

this certification, are eligible to apply for 

adjustment assistance under Section 223 of 

the Trade Act of 1974, and are eligible to 

apply for alternative trade adjustment 

assistance under Section 246 of the Trade Act 

of 1974.’’ 

Signed at Washington, DC, this 15th day of 

September 2008.

Siny Corp, d/b/a Monterey Mills, 

Janesville, WI; Notice of Negative 

Determination Regarding Application 

for Reconsideration 

By application dated September 3, 

2008, a petitioner requested 

administrative reconsideration of the 

Department’s negative determination 


jlentini on PROD1PC65 with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 185 / Tuesday, September 23, 2008 / Notices 54859 

regarding eligibility for workers and 

former workers of the subject firm to 

apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance 

(TAA) and Alternative Trade 

Adjustment Assistance (ATAA). The 

denial notice was signed on July 28, 

2008 and published in the Federal 

Register on August 12, 2008 (73 FR 

46924). 

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 mis-interpretation of facts or 

of the law justified reconsideration of 

the decision. 

The TAA petition, which was filed on 

behalf of workers at Siny Corporation, 

d/b/a Monterey Mills, Janesville, 

Wisconsin engaged in the production of 

acrylic knit pile fabric, was denied 

based on the findings that imports of 

acrylic knit pile fabric did not 

contribute importantly to worker 

separations at the subject firm and no 

shift in production to a foreign source 

occurred. 

In the request for reconsideration, the 

petitioner stated that workers of the 

subject firm were previously certified 

eligible for Trade Adjustment 

Assistance. The petitioner further stated 

that in order to reveal the import 

impact, the Department should consider 

the time period prior to 2006. The 

petitioner seems to allege that because 

the subject firm was previously certified 

eligible for TAA, the workers of the 

subject firm should be granted another 

TAA certification. 

When assessing eligibility for TAA, 

the Department exclusively considers 

import impact during the relevant time 

period (from one year prior to the date 

of the petition). Therefore, events 

occurring before 2006 are outside of the 

relevant period and are not relevant in 

this investigation. 

After careful review of the request for 

reconsideration, the Department 

determines that 29 CFR 90.18(c) has not 

been met. 

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.

September, 2008.

Wheeling Pittsburgh Steel Corporation, 

Including On-Site Leased Workers 

from Pro Unlimited, Allenport, PA; 

Amended Notice of Revised 

Determination on Reconsideration 

In accordance with Section 223 of the 

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

Section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974 

(26 U.S.C. 2813), as amended, the 

Department of Labor issued a Notice of 

Revised Determination on 

Reconsideration on August 11, 2008. 

The notice was published in the Federal 

Register on August 19, 2008 (73 FR 

48395). 

At the request of the State agency, the 

Department reviewed the Notice of 

Revised Determination on 

Reconsideration for workers of the 

subject firm. The workers are engaged in 

the production of cold rolled sheet coils. 

New information shows that leased 

workers from Pro Unlimited were 

employed on-site at the Allenport, 

Pennsylvania location of Wheeling 

Pittsburgh Steel Corporation. The 

Department has determined that these 

workers were sufficiently under the 

control of Wheeling Pittsburgh Steel 

Corporation to be considered leased 

workers. 

Based on these findings, the 

Department is amending this revised 

determination to include workers leased 

from Pro Unlimited working on-site at 

the Allenport, Pennsylvania location of 

the subject firm. 

The intent of the Department’s 

certification is to include all adversely 

affected secondary workers employed at 

Wheeling Pittsburgh Steel Corporation, 

Allenport, Pennsylvania. 

The amended notice applicable to 

TA–W–63,278 is hereby issued as 

follows: 

‘‘All workers of Wheeling Pittsburgh Steel 

Corporation, including on-site leased workers 

from Pro Unlimited, Allenport, Pennsylvania, 

who became totally or partially separated 

from employment on or after April 21, 2007, 

through August 11, 2010, are eligible to apply 

for adjustment assistance under Section 223 

of the Trade Act of 1974, and are also eligible
