Regarding Eligibility To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance and

Assistance (ATAA). The certification was signed on March 2, 2004. The

skills that were easily transferable.
    The company provided new information to show that the workers 
possess skills that are not easily transferable. The initial 
investigation

determined that at least five percent of the workforce at the subject 
firm is at least fifty years of age and that competitive conditions 
within the industry are adverse.

Conclusion

    After careful review of the additional facts obtained on 
reconsideration, I conclude that the requirements of Section 246 of the 
Trade Act of 1974, as amended, have been met for workers at the subject 
firm.
    In accordance with the provisions of the Act, I make the following 
certification:

    All workers of at Lake Region Manufacturing, Inc., Lake Region 
Medical, Inc., Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, who became totally or 
partially separated from employment on or after January 12, 2003 
through March 2, 2006, are eligible to apply for adjustment 
assistance under section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, and are also 
eligible to apply for alternative trade adjustment assistance under 
section 246 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed in Washington, DC, this 19th day of April, 2004.
