DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Employment and Training Administration
[TA-W-63,295]
Visteon Corporation Regional Assembly & Manufacturing LLC; Fuel
Delivery--Climate Group Division Concordia, MO; Notice of Affirmative
Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration
By application dated August 12, 2008, United Automobile, Aerospace
& Agricultural Implement Workers of America, International Union, Local
710 requested administrative reconsideration of the negative
determination regarding workers' eligibility to apply for Trade
Adjustment Assistance (TAA) and Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance
(ATAA) applicable to workers and former workers of the subject firm.
The determination was issued on July 23, 2008. The Notice of
determination was published in the Federal Register on August 12, 2008
(73 FR 46924).
The determination was based on the Department's findings that
imports of automotive fuel tanks 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
indicating some customers have been certified for TAA and requested the
Department of Labor investigate for secondary impact as a supplier of a
component to a TAA certified firm.
The Department has carefully reviewed the request for
reconsideration and the existing record and has determined that the
Department will conduct further investigation to determine if the
workers meet the eligibility requirements of the Trade Act as secondary
impact workers.
Conclusion
After careful review of the application, I conclude that the claim
is of sufficient weight to justify reconsideration of the U.S.
Department of Labor's prior decision. The application is, therefore,
granted.
Signed at Washington, DC, this 2nd day of September 2008.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
