TA-W-71,375


AK Steel Corporation, Mansfield Works Division, Including On-Site 
Leased Workers From Time Customized Staffing Solutions, Mansfield, OH; 
Notice of Revised Determination on Reconsideration

    On January 8, 2010, the Department issued an Affirmative 
Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration applicable to 
workers and former workers of the subject firm. The notice of 
affirmative determination was published in the Federal Register on 
February 1, 2010 (75 FR 5145).
    The initial investigation, initiated on June 24, 2009, resulted in 
a negative determination, issued on November 2, 2009, that was based on 
the finding that imports did not contribute importantly to worker 
separations at the subject firm and no shift in production to a foreign 
country occurred. The notice of negative determination was published in 
the Federal Register on January 25, 2010 (75 FR 3935).
    To support the request for reconsideration, the petitioner supplied

additional information regarding the customers of the subject firm to 
supplement that which was gathered during the initial investigation.
    During the reconsideration investigation, the Department requested 
an additional list of customers from the subject firm and conducted a 
customer survey to determine whether imports of steel coils negatively 
impacted employment at AK Steel Corporation, Mansfield Works Division, 
Mansfield, Ohio.
    The survey of the subject firm's major declining customers revealed 
that the customers increased their imports of steel coils while 
decreasing purchases from the subject firm from 2007 to 2008.

Conclusion

    After careful review of the additional facts obtained on 
reconsideration, I determine that workers of AK Steel Corporation, 
Mansfield Works Division, including on-site leased workers from Time 
Customized Staffing Solutions, Mansfield, Ohio, who are engaged in 
employment related to the production of steel coils, meet the worker 
group certification criteria under Section 222(a) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. 
2272(a). In accordance with Section 223 of the Act, 19 U.S.C. 2273, I 
make the following certification:

    All workers of AK Steel Corporation, Mansfield Works Division, 
including on-site leased workers from Time Customized Staffing 
Solutions, Mansfield, Ohio, who became totally or partially 
separated from employment on or after June 23, 2008, through two 
years from the date of this certification, and all workers in the 
group threatened with total or partial separation from employment on 
date of certification through two years from the date of 
certification, are eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under 
Chapter 2 of Title II of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended.

    Signed in Washington, DC, this 18th day of February, 2010.
 Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
