DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
[TA-W-30,133]

 

Tunnelton Mining Co,; Uniontown, PA; Notice of Negative 
Determination Regarding Application for Reconsideration

    By an application dated November 2, 1994, District #5 of the United 
Mine Workers of America (UMW) requested administrative reconsideration 
of the subject petition for trade adjustment assistance, TAA. The 
denial notice was issued on October 13, 1994 and published in the 
Federal Register on November 1, 1994 (59 FR 54631).
    Pursuant to 29 CFR 90.18(c) reconsideration may be granted under 
the following circumstances:
    (1) If it appears on the basis of facts not previously considered 
that the determination complained of was erroneous;
    (2) if it appears that the determination complained of was based on 
a mistake in the determination of facts not previously considered; or
    (3) of the opinion of the Certifying Officer, a misinterpretation 
of facts or of the law justified reconsideration of the decision.
    Investigation findings show that the workers produce steam coal for 
electric power customers.
    Investigation findings show that imports of coal were negligible in 
1993.
    Other findings show that the Department's survey of the Tunnelton's 
sole customer shows that the customer did not import steam coal or fuel 
oil in the relevant period.
    Other investigation findings show that the mine closed because the 
contract with the sole customer expired.

Conclusion

    After review of the application and investigative findings, I 
conclude that there has been no error or misinterpretation of the law 
or of the facts which would justify reconsideration of the Department 
of Labor's prior decision. Accordingly, the application is denied.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 7th day of December 1994.
Victor J. Trunzo,
Program Manager, Policy and Reemployment Services, Office of Trade 
Adjustment Assistance.
