DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-71,032]


AGY Holding Corporation, Huntingdon, PA; Notice of Affirmative 
Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration

    By application dated June 1, 2010, a petitioner requested 
administrative reconsideration of the negative determination regarding 
workers' eligibility to apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) 
applicable to workers and former workers of the subject firm. The 
determination was issued on April 27, 2010. The Notice of determination 
was published in the Federal Register on May 28, 2010 (75 FR 30072). 
Workers are engaged in employment related to the production of fine 
yarns and specialty glass yarns. The negative determination was based 
on the Department's findings that increased imports of fine yarns and 
specialty glass yarns did not contribute importantly to worker 
separations at the subject firm and no shift of production abroad 
occurred.
    In the request for reconsideration, the petitioner provided 
additional information regarding a shift in production abroad.
    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 21st day of June, 2010.
Del Min Amy Chen,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
