TDK Ferrites Corporation, Shawnee, Oklahoma; Notice of Revised
Determination on Reconsideration
By letter of September 10, 2001, the petitioners requested
administrative reconsideration regarding the Department's Notice of
Determination Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment
Assistance, applicable to the workers of the subject firm.
The initial investigation resulted in a negative determination for
the workers engaged in the production of CR core ferrites and micro
cores ferrites issued on August 29, 2001, based on the finding that the
``contributed importantly'' test of the Group Eligibility Requirements
of the Trade Act was not met. Also in the initial investigation the
workers engaged in the production of EU core ferrites were certified
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Section 223 of the
Trade Act of 1974. The notice was published in the Federal Register on
September 11, 2001 (66 FR 47241).
To support the petitioners' request for reconsideration, the
company provided in evidence to show that the company increased their
imports of CR core ferrites during the relevant period.
Conclusion
After careful review of the additional facts obtained on
reconsideration, I conclude that increased imports of articles like or
directly competitive with CR core parts produced at TDK Ferrites
Corporation, Shawnee, Oklahoma, contributed importantly to the decline
in sales or production and to the total or partial separation of
workers at the subject firm. In accordance with the provisions of the
Act, I make the following certification:
All workers of TDK Ferrites Corporation, Shawnee, Oklahoma,
engaged in activities related to the production of CR core ferrites
and EU core ferrites who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after April 25, 2000 through two years from the
date of this certification, are eligible to apply for adjustment
assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.
Signed in Washington, DC, this 24th day of September, 2001.
Edward A. Tomchick,
Director, Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance.
