Selkirk, LLC; Logan, OH; Notice of Revised Determination on
Reconsideration of Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance
By letter dated June 8, 2005, a company official requested
administrative reconsideration regarding Alternative Trade Adjustment
Assistance (ATAA) applicable to workers of the subject firm. The
negative determination was signed on May 17, 2005, and was published in
the Federal Register on June 13, 2005 (70 FR 34155).
The workers of Selkirk, LLC, Logan, Ohio were certified eligible to
apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) on May 17, 2005.
The initial ATAA investigation determined that the skills of the
subject worker group are easily transferable to other positions in the
local area.
In the request for reconsideration, the company official provided
new information confirming that the skills of the workers at the
subject firm are not easily transferable in the local commuting area.
[[Page 40744]]
Additional investigation has determined that the workers possess
skills that are not easily transferable. A significant number or
proportion of the worker group are age fifty years or over. 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 Selkirk, LLC, Logan, Ohio, who became totally
or partially separated from employment on or after May 28, 2005
through May 17, 2007, are eligible to apply for trade adjustment
assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.''
``I further determine that all workers of Selkirk, LLC, Logan,
Ohio, who became totally or partially separated from employment on
or after April 26, 2004 through May 17, 2007 are eligible to apply
for alternative trade adjustment assistance under Section 246 of the
Trade Act of 1974.''
Signed in Washington, DC, this 23rd day of June 2005.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
