DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-55,898]

 
Glenshaw Glass Company, Glenshaw, PA; Notice of Affirmative 
Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration

    By application of January 20, 2005, the Glass, Molders, Pottery, 
Plastics and Allied Workers International Union, Locals 134 and 76, 
requested administrative reconsideration of the Department of Labor's 
Notice of Negative Determination Regarding Eligibility To Apply for 
Worker Adjustment Assistance, applicable to workers of the subject 
firm. The denial notice was signed on December 1, 2004. The Notice of 
determination was published in the Federal Register on December 22, 
2004 (69 FR 76785).
    The petitioner alleges that foreign competition, including the loss 
of business to foreign manufacturers, contributed to the closure of the 
subject facility.
    The Department carefully reviewed the petitioner's request for 
reconsideration and has determined that the Department will conduct 
further investigation based on new information provided by the 
petitioner and company official.

Conclusion

    After careful review of the application, I conclude that the claim 
is of sufficient weight to justify reconsideration of the Department of 
Labor's prior decision. The application is, therefore, granted.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 1st day of February 2005.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
