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.
