DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Employment and Training Administration
[TA-W-63,904]
Nestaway, LLC, Garfield Heights, OH; Notice of Affirmative
Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration
By application dated November 13, 2008, the International Union,
United Automobile, Aerospace & Agricultural Implement Workers of
America, Region 2-B 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 October 8, 2008. The
Notice of Determination was published in the Federal Register on
October 27, 2008 (73 FR 63736).
The initial investigation resulted in a negative determination
based on the finding that imports of dishwasher rack components 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 customers of the subject firm and
alleged that there were other products manufactured at the subject
facility, which were not revealed in the initial investigation.
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 of 1974.
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 10th day of December 2008.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
