DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-61,541]

 
South Indiana Lumber Company, Inc., Liberty, KY; Notice of 
Affirmative Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration

    By application dated July 26, 2007, the petitioner requested 
administrative reconsideration of the Department of Labor's Notice of 
Negative Determination Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker 
Adjustment Assistance, applicable to workers and former workers of the 
subject firm. The determination was signed on June 25, 2007 and 
published in the Federal Register on July 19, 2007 (72 FR 39644).
    The initial investigation resulted in a negative determination 
based on the finding that imports of furniture blanks, stair balusters, 
and handle blanks did not contribute importantly to worker separations 
at the subject firm and no shift of production to a foreign source 
occurred.
    In the request for reconsideration, the petitioner provided 
additional information regarding the subject firm's customers.
    The Department has reviewed the workers' request for 
reconsideration and the existing record, and has determined that an 
administrative review is appropriate. Therefore, the Department will 
conduct further investigation to determine if the workers meet the 
eligibility requirements of the Trade Act of 1974.

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 in Washington, DC, this 3rd day of August, 2007.
Linda G. Poole,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
