DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
Economic Development Administration
Notice of Petitions by Firms for Determination of Eligibility To
Apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance
AGENCY: Economic Development Administration, Department of Commerce.
ACTION: Notice and opportunity for public comment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Pursuant to Section 251 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 2341 et
seq.), the Economic Development Administration (EDA) has received
petitions for certification of eligibility to apply for Trade
Adjustment Assistance from the firms listed below. EDA has initiated
separate investigations to determine whether increased imports into the
United States of articles like or directly competitive with those
produced by each firm contributed importantly to the total or partial
separation of the firm's workers, or threat thereof, and to a decrease
in sales or production of each petitioning firm.
