DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-55,799]

 
CDI Professional Services Workers at General Dynamics Land 
Systems, California Technical Center, Goleta, CA; Notice of Negative 
Determination on Reconsideration

    On December 30, 2004, the Department issued an Affirmative 
Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration for the workers 
and former workers of the subject firm. The Department's Notice was 
published in the Federal Register on January 21, 2005 (70 FR 3226).
    The petition for the workers of CDI Professional Services, workers 
at General Dynamics Land Systems, California Technical Center, Goleta, 
California was terminated because the petitioning workers were covered 
by an earlier denial (TA-W-55,658) and no new information or change in 
circumstances was evident to warrant a reversal of the previous 
determination.
    The petitioner contends that the Department erred in its 
determination and alleges that the workers support Saudi Arabia 
National Guard (SANG) turret production which shifted from Goleta, 
California to London, Canada.
    A company official was contacted for clarification in regard to the 
nature of the work performed by the subject worker group. The official 
stated that the subject workers were engaged in the engineering, 
designing and repair of SANG turrets. SANG turrets are produced in 
Australia and then sent to Canada to be attached to the appropriate 
vehicle. The official further clarified that work related to the SANG 
turrets shifted from Goleta, California to Woodbridge, Virginia in 
2004.

Conclusion

    After reconsideration, I affirm the original notice of negative 
determination of eligibility to apply for worker adjustment assistance 
for workers and former workers of CDI Professional Services working at 
General Dynamics Land Systems, California Technical Center, Goleta, 
California.

    Signed at Washington, DC this 28th day of January 2005.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
