DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration

[TA-W-59,788]

 
Ace Products, LLC, Newport, TN; Notice of Affirmative 
Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration

    By letter dated October 3, 2006, a petitioner requested 
administrative reconsideration of the Department of Labor's Notice of 
Negative Determination Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker 
Adjustment Assistance, applicable to workers of the subject firm. The 
denial notice was signed on September 14, 2006, and published in the 
Federal Register on September 26, 2006 (71 FR 56172).
    The initial investigation resulted in a negative determination 
based on the finding that imports of semi pneumatic and solid rubber 
tires did not contribute importantly to worker separations at the

subject firm and no shift of production to a foreign source occurred.
    The Department reviewed the request for reconsideration and has 
determined that the petitioner has provided additional information. 
Therefore, 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 Department of 
Labor's prior decision. The application is, therefore, granted.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 8th of November, 2006.
Elliott S. Kushner,
Certifying Officer, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
