Pursuant to section 221 of the Trade

response to a worker petition which was 

filed on October 30, 2001 on behalf of

The petitioning group of workers is

Texel USA, Inc., Henderson, North 

Carolina; Notice of Revised 

Determination on Reconsideration 

By letter of July 24, 2001, the 

company requested administrative 

reconsideration regarding the 

Department’s Negative Determination 

Regarding Eligibility to Apply for 

Worker Adjustment Assistance, 

applicable to the workers of the subject 

firm. 

The initial investigation resulted in a 

negative determination issued on July 2, 

2001, based on the finding that imports 

of nonwoven needle punched felts did 

not contribute importantly to worker 

separations at the Henderson plant. The 

denial notice was published in the 

Federal Register on July 20, 2001 (66 FR 

38026). 

To support the request for 

reconsideration, the company supplied 

additional information which helped 

clarify information that was provided 

during the initial investigation. The 

company indicated they shifted subject 

plant projection to an affiliated plant 

located in Canada and simultaneously 

began importing nonwoven needle 

punched felts back to the United States 

to serve their domestic customer base 

during the relevant period. The imports 

accounted for a meaningful portion of 

the subject plant production. 

Conclusion 

After careful review of the additional 

facts obtained on reconsideration, I 

conclude that increased imports of 

articles like or directly competitive with 

those produced at Texel USA, Inc., 

Henderson, North Carolina, contributed 

importantly to the declines in sales or 

production and to the total or partial 

separation of workers at the subject 

firm. In accordance with the provision 

of the Act, I make the following 

certification:

‘‘All workers of Texel USA, Inc., 

Henderson, North Carolina, who become 

totally or partially separated from 

employment on or after January 29, 2000 

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.’’

December 2001.
