Economic Development Administration
Notice of Petitions by Firms for Determination of Eligibility To
Apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance
AGENCY: Economic Development Administration, U.S. Department of
Commerce.
ACTION: Notice and opportunity for public comment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Pursuant to section 251 of the Trade Act 1974, as amended, 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.
