Determinations Terminating 

Investigations of Petitions for Worker 

Adjustment Assistance 

After notice of the petitions was 

published in the Federal Register and 

on the Department’s Web site, as 

required by Section 221 of the Act (19 

U.S.C. 2271), the Department initiated 

investigations of these petitions. 

The following determinations 

terminating investigations were issued 

because the petitioner has requested 

that the petition be withdrawn. 

85,611, GrafTech International 

Holdings Inc., Parma, Ohio. 

85,627, Mary’s River Lumber 

Company, Montesano, Washington. 

The following determinations 

terminating investigations were issued 

because the petitioning groups of 

workers are covered by active 

certifications. Consequently, further 

investigation in these cases would serve 

no purpose since the petitioning group 

of workers cannot be covered by more 

than one certification at a time. 

85,578, Avery Dennison, Lenoir, North 

Carolina. 

I hereby certify that the 

aforementioned determinations were 

issued during the period of November 3,
