DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
Economic Development Administration
Notice of Petitions by Firms for Determination of Eligibility To
Apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance
AGENCY: Economic Development Administration, Commerce.
ACTION: Notice and opportunity for public comment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Pursuant to Section 251 of the Trade Act 1974, as amended (19
U.S.C. 2341 et seq.), the Economic Development Administration (EDA) has
received petitions for certification of eligibility to apply for Trade
Adjustment Assistance from the firms listed below. Accordingly, EDA has
initiated investigations to determine whether increased imports into
the United States of articles like or directly competitive with those
produced by each of these firms contributed importantly to the total or
partial separation of the firm's workers, or threat thereof, and to a
decrease in sales or production of each petitioning firm.
