employment after December 8, 1993 (date of enactment of P.L. 103-182) 
are eligible to apply for NAFTA-TAA under Subchapter D of the Trade Act 
because of increased imports from or the shift in production to Mexico 
or Canada.

in the subject matter of the investigations may request a public 
hearing with the Director of OTAA at the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL)
